Note to the activist left: Don't cut off your nose to spite your face

I'm glad to see that cooler minds are beginning to realize that the increasing likelihood of some very nasty and violent shit going down at the Republican National Convention could hand the election to the Thug-in-Chief just the way Chicago 1968 handed that election to Richard Nixon. Michelle Goldberg weighs in on the possibility that history might repeat itself, and Eric Alterman has been kind enough to reprint Todd Gitlin and John Passacantando's article from The Nation on this very topic.

Gitlin has been there, kids. He loves you. Do what he says.
