The leftists and BLM Marxists are essentially using the Dem cities as a relatively safe training ground, building up their tactics knowledge and endurance for when they eventually push out into the rest of the country.

That's something I really wanted to work into my original comment, but forgot to, although I certainly did allude to it multiple times.

And it becomes painfully obvious if you compare the earliest rioter actions to their behavior today, as they've clearly evolved in tactics: adopting better weapons; better cohesion among their 'operatives'; they've become virtual experts at stretching official response thin while also being able to disorient and overwhelm select targets with lasers, strobes, crowds; effectively becoming a self-contained insurgency by utilizing a mix of defensive and offensive agents who all dress in an identity-concealing uniform, making it hard to identify high-priority individuals; etc., etc., etc.

You can find AARs (After Action Reports) and articles (here's a decent one: https://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/2020/08/25/contextual-insurgency-lessons-from-a-week-observing-portland-black-bloc/) on the rioters which lays all this out perfectly. There's a story floating around (that sadly I can't locate at this time) of a former SF guy and his buddies being completely overwhelmed by an effective ANTIFA/BLM response which included the utilization of pepper spray and strobe lights. I had my suppositions before, but reading that was the lighbulb moment that made me fully realize how serious these Marxists really are, and how dangerous they can truly be.

So that's why I can't find any wisdom in Razor's rant this time; he's either willfully ignorant of what these riots truly represent, or is too damn eager to underestimate the rioters as the soy-guzzling, Twitter-spamming, crybullies they appear to be, rather than acknowledge them as the increasingly dangerous insurgent force they're developing into.

All the cities are is a series of soft targets to build up confidence with easy victories
