1. It is notable to me that the nazis do not seem to be out to kill (or I would be dead too (twice)). I can only surmise that the same type of social position inertia that paralyses the antifa here, also works on the opposition: they all have a "real life" to lose, a comfy first world lifestyle, and that holds the finger from the trigger when shit gets serious. I wouldn't expect a mere beating from, say, the wolves, or the Bandidos etc.
2. It follows that: climate apocalypse > economic crisis > less to lose > violence will keep escalating. (already is, but we're just starting the ride).
3. true of this attack, of my attacks, of the attack on a squat last year, and of other attacks I heard about: Their preferred weapons *at this stage* seem to be the pepper spray, the telescopic metal baton, the motorcycle glove (or sap glove if they're savvy). it pays to prep for these, and knives (carry tourniquets!!). partly good news since the telescopic baton is a terrible weapon on all counts.
4. also true of all these cases: their M.O. is multiple-to-one, unprepared/distracted targets (going to and returning from demos, sleeping in squats etc.)
5. each attack without consequence emboldens them more. (a solidarity demo isn't a consequence btw.)
