much like their heroes the Bolsheviks took over the people's revolution in 1917

Sounds like they're doing the right thing then, since the Bolsheviks won that revolution.

I've seen PSL shut down protests by convincing people that the protest is "over".

It means they showed up to a protest where PSL did all the work and was mad they weren't handed the mic when they stormed the stage

A couple years back PSL helped organize a Palestine solidarity march here, working with local non-communist MENA groups. There was a planned marching route, a little street fair beforehand, and a lot of collaboration with most of the active communist orgs in the area. It was an opportunity for us commies to get together and try and mend some of the party divides, and also to show the MENA orgs that communists were reliable allies. It took a lot of convincing to get them on board.

Part way through the march a black bloc came and started smashing windows, assaulting onlookers for the crime of having their cameras out, smashing cars, just being an absolute menace.

The PSL organizers did call the march short and ended the "official" event but encouraged people who wanted to stay to go to the nearby student-run event while we tried to smooth things over with the MENA groups.

The anarchists did not want to follow the plan. They did not care about the solidarity-building purposes of this march. They wanted to smash a starbucks, and post on Instagram about how they owned a bunch of tankies.
