Their advice is to get some people to make posters with you when attending the lib parade and to not “back down” when reactionaries go after you. They call this organizing, somehow.
For anyone interested in this, please disregard their advice and join an actual organization that does proper trainings and has safety strategies. You’ll be more effective, you’ll have a clearer purpose to attending something like “No Kings”, and you’ll be safer. The exact left tendency is less important than the organization being competent at doing these things. You can always join a different org later if it aligns with you better, you’ll have skills and experience, and you won’t have taken pointless risks.
