One has to wonder if patriots should have appropriated antifa tactics from the get-go.

Look at our protests. We hold flags in front of government buildings and sing songs. We got doxed and called white supremacists. Fired from jobs, censored from media.

What if, instead, balaclava-wearing men had smashed, burned, looted the buildings where votes were (not) "being counted"?? What if there had been violent, fiery riots in Atlanta, Philly, etc. following Xiden's confirmation as president-elect?? We tried to be the more mature peoples and look where it got us.

This is late stage internet/porn/media addiction. Flagrant narcissism and zero self-awareness. Had these people been born twenty, even ten, years prior they'd have a shot at being functional.

It's bizarre as all their hostility is being directed the wrong way. What's fucked up is the inherent dehumanization of Zoom calls and the lockdowns in general. What's fucked up is "trans women are women" gender politics. But these people don't get it. They've accepted an insane premise ("my delusions should be entertained and all those who dismiss me are oppressive") and thus view the world at large through that lens. Thus, insanity becomes normality and anything life-affirming, productive, beautiful, or just plain "normal" becomes offensive.

As someone who considered himself anarchist for decades, I would say yes. But it's an uphill battle. (I all but abandoned the "movement" once anarchists uncritically embraced idpol and globalism en masse).

Consistent and principled anarchists should and do hate the warmongering Biden regime.

Anarchists are ostensibly committed to eroding power structures, but their priorities are out of order and their focus is unclear. Anarchists are far too obsessed with pedantic political definitions, political compass bullshit, and so on. Hence why they aren't against tyranny at large; they're only opposed to "fascism" and "right-wing" politics. They're being swindled and used by globalists who adopted and appropriated "social justice" stances. Note how many anarchists condemned the capitol "insurrection" but will justify citizen-on-citizen riots. It's absurd.

Anarchists have also fallen deep into pop culture "soyboy" bullshit. The dream of many of these dudes is for capitalism to be destroyed but replaced by some sort of utopia where money is endlessly printed for the masses and one can wither away gaming and viewing pornography all day.

So what's the solution??? I think things are working themselves out naturally and we will eventually see a rough sort of patriot/anarchist alliance. The "bugmen" types are too far gone, but there are leftists and anarchists who are passionate lively people who oppose lockdowns, idpol, etc. and that contingent will grow larger as the government gets more insane and repressive.

When I talk to anarchists I try to use their terminology. I'll refer to the lockdowns as medical fascism, remind them that fascists conduct fraudulent elections, that fascists censor the media, and so forth. Point out that JP Morgan and so forth have BLM slogans on their webpages. Sometimes, they stop and think for a moment.

As someone who was balls deep in anarchism for 20 years, you are correct.

The big performative BLM/antifa "protests" are most certainly government-approved and corporate-endorsed, and the citizen-on-citizen violence and destruction of small businesses does not threaten the elite. It emboldens them.

But most people who are actual "antifa members" are your disenfranchised types who hate the system, but happened to discover Peter Kropotkin before Thomas Paine.

I actually wouldn't be surprised to see an antifa/patriot alliance in the coming years. "Political compass" bullshit is becoming moot and we're seeing a rise in both the anti-idpol left and the anti-corporatist right, making the groups overlap. The lockdowns have also shaken many a leftoid's faith in the Democrat establishment.

There are really only two sides: freedom and tyranny. Different folks reach this conclusion in different ways.
