As I say the bolsheviks always edge out the mensheviks. Orwell saw this himself in Spain when POUM liquidated their anarchist allies.

Good points, I guess the takeaway is that conservatives need to similarly prepare to step into the power vacuum causes by mass street demonstrations

Found the researcher/history buff. A lot of people skip over the complex details of the situation like what we have here, now. It's old hat tactics, but largely because it works. Dupe enough normal people with simplistic messages to join along and run cover (BLM). In the end, tho, they always cut out the useful idiots.
