Well, as I grew-up practicing martial arts, I became adept at deliberately clashing with Neo-Nazis and fascists – giving them a good beating that broke their noses, teeth and hearts. The few bruises I received in return were worth cost. I enjoy fighting and am a member of the far-left (I have also been a Buddhist monk). I believe in militant peace where the balance of nature is retained through inner and outer discipline. Most far-right thugs I have encountered are riddled with fear – even those who train in boxing or whatever. Get past the surface bluster and they crap themselves. Those on the left must practice martial arts for self-defence and continue the grand tradition of the “Red Army”. We must defend ourselves and one another from far-right violence. To be clear, I do not agree with – or advocate – violence. However, just as long as violence exists within society that targets “us” – we must be prepared to defend ourselves from it. Our minds must be “still” and “quiet” whilst our bodies must be “fit” and “strong”. We must psychologically undermine the far-right so that its physicality is merely a “husk” that can be smashed and pushed aside. We must inwardly defeat the far-right before we are able to decively defeat it outwardly.
