    Anarchists and tankies should not be grouped together.

    Yes, protection from the cops, and yes everyone knows the risks. Because they know the risks, they should take precautions. They should know cops will target them, so they shouldn’t willingly give up their identity.

      You guys are the protection from cops? Brother, they dress up like you to throw bricks through windows as excuse to go after the rest of us.

      Now you want us dress like you so that the media can then take the cops side when the fighting starts?

      You are not our protection and we are not your cover.

        When have they needed an excuse? I’m not saying everyone needs to be dressed in black block or anything, but don’t just give away anonymity for no reason. They’ll abuse your self-righteous attitude and it won’t protect you.

          The more of us willing to drop the anonymous organizing, the safer it becomes for those of us who aren’t anonymous.
