There is a point most are missing here. While it’s true that MOST leftists wouldn’t have the guts to do much, a passionate and vicious minority always suffices. For example, what percentage of Nazi sympathizers were the Brownshirts? What percentage of communists in Russia actually did the dirty work necessary to cement the 1917 revolution?

The victory goes to the passionate and bold, and one such person is worth at least ten average people. This is true even when the zealous are immoral slugs and the average people are relatively virtuous.

I absolutely agree with you. That is what makes it so dangerous.
