Unlike the Punch Richard Spencer event, this one gets no traction for the black block. They've been breaking windows and setting rubbish bin fires for two decades, now.... longer if you count the shock troops of the old Anti-War demonstration, with much the same "Ho Hum" reaction.

There may be a couple of people who get excited because it's the poster boy for misogyny (and runner up to Julian Assange in the Best Dye Job elimination round). His followers need no convincing, though and I doubt he's picking up any new ones. It'll get the Misogynist Wing of the GOP back in the news for a few days; they've been feeling like wallflowers while all the Nazis got all the press over the last few weeks.

It's a lose/lose situation. More accurately a news/news situation. Milo will get another gig sponsored by the Young Americans for Freedom at another university, and the black bloc will go on to do what they do.

It's not that liberals have become less tolerant. It's that conservatives have become more intolerable.
