Right now, in America, organizing and public demonstrations don't actually do anything. (I'd argue they never did but that's a different thread) So the question is why set yourself up for a glowing operation to make you and your cause look bad and potentially end up like the Jan 6th people. That's why people are saying every right event is called glowing. Rightwingers, for the most part, have nothing to gain by doing them.
That's not the same as not doing anything. There's a bunch of things people can do, local offices, local politics, ect. ect. What exactly is a mass protest going to do except be a honey trap for feds?

The problem is, that requires organizational skill and planning, it's HARD WORK and requires practice and skill, and none of that is NOT the right's strong suit. This is something the left works very hard to keep the right hobbled with with concern trolls and other moles, while the left literally writes books about how to organize, or infest and take over organizations, or use organizational rules against righty orgs to destroy them.
No one wants to be Tucker Carlson's writer or personal assistant. Lefties would literally shank each other to be Rachel Maddow's.
For example, the one that I've linked before is "Beautiful Trouble," mostly because they had a website detailing all these fun little (((lefty))) tricks they used to use -- like having your own film crews on the ground filming incognito so you could make your side look good and the second someone fights back against your goons in Black Bloc, you can crop that shit and send it pre-edited to your allies at CNN.

Why Did It Take Two Weeks To Reveal Parkland Students’ Astroturfing?
The Parkland response was professionalized. That’s not surprising, because this is what organization that gets results actually looks like.

Remember, the left literally had a bill in hand to condemn the political violence of 1/6 written up and submitted on 1/5. It wasn't because of a glowy op -- although as more and more info comes out, I wonder -- it was because they knew that if you get 250,000 people together with no organizational structure to tard wrangle, SOMETHING will happen. Hell, I used to work at a smaller stadium doing IT stuff and part of our training was any major concert would likely have at least one medical emergency. We were trained not as if it was a matter of IF it happened but WHEN it happened.

UK is broke and the have bunch a tax increases coming in april this year to pay for all the covid shutdowns on top of it they have serious shortage of truckers which they give special visas and carers for the nursing homes which they relaxed their requirements for foreigners to get in here if they work as such . Considering tax, rent and energy hikes so high that we had Norwegians coming back in January and December after getting shock energy bills for a room share while studying and working i assume a lot of other students and cheap labour were put in same position and decided fuck it ain't worth it .
Same reason why Denmark and chech republic are doing it . They are heavily dependant on temp labour force working for peanuts for few months to a year and then leaving . If this bs continues combined with oil prices will make travel even harder then countries will either have to pay their workers through the nose or allow whole families at once to immigrate with no if and buts. The other issue is more and more countries are in competition for global cheap labour because their labour force is either stagnant or declining. For example Philippines got record low population growth around 100k in 2021 and they number one exporters of cheap temp labour something like 10% of their work force working outside of the country. Thailand just reported record low population growth as in negative growth, Singapore has issues to keep their foreign workforce they lost something like 20 % of it. The reports keep piling on. And since few countries blinked others will join because they can't afford it and all of them need free movement of labour or their elites might actually have to pay their nanny a proper salary. The horror.

Biden’s chief of staff leaked Breyer retirement to ‘limited’ group, Durbin says
(article)
President Joe Biden’s chief of staff leaked Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer’s plan to retire to "a limited group" on Wednesday, a top Democrat told reporters.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Richard Durbin told reporters he received a “surprise” call on Wednesday morning from White House chief of staff Ron Klain, who "said that President Biden wanted [Durbin] to know that Stephen Breyer was about to announce his retirement from the court.”
Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, said Klain told him to keep the news a secret and that Breyer planned to make an official announcement on Thursday.
Breyer, 83, was apparently blindsided Wednesday when the news leaked about his retirement and was widely reported by the media.
Breyer made his own announcement on Thursday, a day after Klain’s call to Durbin’s office.
“They were telling a limited number of people and that I should be keep it confidential,” Durbin said. “The official announcement will be made on Thursday. I said, of course I would.”
No one has specifically been connected with leaking the news to the media, and Durbin said he kept it mostly confidential, telling only his wife.
Two hours later, the media broke the story.
“That’s what confidential on Capitol Hill leads to, I guess,” Durbin said.
According to reporting by the Washington Examiner and other outlets, Breyer was not ready to make the announcement.
Fox News reported that Breyer was “blindsided,” while sources told the Washington Examiner that Breyer was just beginning the standard process of scaling back, with plans to announce his retirement at the end of the current term in several months.
"He is a by-the-book stickler for following protocol. You announce your retirement at the end of terms, not in the middle,” one insider told the Washington Examiner. “He did not plan for this to leak out. He was just beginning the standard process of winding down,” added the source.
The story was first reported by several news outlets. NBC said it obtained the information from “people familiar with [Breyer's] thinking.”
Breyer was under intense pressure to step down to ensure that Biden could appoint a liberal replacement who could be confirmed by a Democrat-led Senate.
Biden intends to announce a nominee to fill Breyer's seat at the end of February, and the process is likely to take weeks before a final vote on confirmation.
Biden has promised to select a black woman, and this time, Durbin said, he’s not in the loop.
Klain told Durbin it would be up to Biden, who has not decided yet.
“So I left it at that,” Durbin said.

This will be true until it abruptly isn't. See this book for more info:
I wonder if Antifa will be out in force this Summer, given that Biden has "betrayed" the DSA types by not giving them free shit. Wonder if the uniparty will crack down on the golem. We shall see.
Gotta start organizing locally. The left uses a trick called "affinity groups" to avoid their entire movements being cracked down on. I've talked about this before, it's a Marxist (literally) tactic to make it hard to stop the infestation at one go. So you might know the guys from the Marxist Bookstore and some of them know the guys at the Organic CoOp and some of them know the guys at the local University and when they need Black Bloc protestors or even just guys to provide cover for the Black Bloc they ping out like a mesh network and well, you show up with your friends from the Bookstore, listen to someone who is strangely practiced in organizing this shit that you barely know from the bookstore but seems to know every other group, and away everyone goes. And if you get arrested the only people you can finger is the guys from the Bookstore, the people from the CoOp and the University are safe. And the organizers are double safe.
The right could start doing this same thing via stuff like gun ranges, churches, etc. Gotta start smaller and locally. Get people to learn how to herd the cats needed to deal with a 15,000 protest before trying a 250,000 protest.
Hell, beyond just learning the community organizing skills needed, going "small" like this would have knock on effects that the Uniparty absolutely does not want -- if the GOP was flooded with MAGA Populists volunteering locally the RINOs would be effectively out in a single political generation, and then we're off to the races.
But the one thing I have seen is that it's become a meme in the right to be ready for the Epps types, and if they show up starting to agitate for the glowys, just start filming them and chanting FED FED FED. It completely deflates them. The consensus seems to be that you should still show up, if only so there are people shouting FED and filming.
So it absolutely was an Op to force him out before the Midterms. Amazing.

That's right but it is important to keep in mind that Canada has no ultra-powerful intelligence service that specializes in subverting popular movements. That inabillity of theirs is at least partially responsible for why the truckers have been so successful. The United States is a completely different beast compared to Trudeau and if this US copycat stunt gets off the ground, it will be subjected to all sorts of attacks the Canadian government doesn't have.
My optimism for this US convoy is low, but so was mine for the Canadian truckers and I was gladly proven wrong. Hopefully I'm wrong again because the sight of D.C. being clogged up with trucks would make up for all of 2021.

The antichrist is an odd mix of a puppet and a system. There are many antichrists, I was taught that Revelations is more or less a tale of how the 'world' always ends. If you ever see a renaissance or classical painting it usually is clear that it's a man being lead by the devil rather than a demonic man. Biden is a good candidate for an Anti-Christ, he's a greedy career politician who has lied his entire career and refuses to acknowledge his misdeeds while serving the political elite. The anti-Christ isn't some magic bs, it's dishonest people leading others down the wrong path for their own gain. The meme picture of the guy from Superbad saying that Jesus said this so do what I want even though I hate you and your beliefs would be an example, but prosperity gospel preachers would be another.

Reply Bug. Antifa has probably been defanged for the time being. Especially since things are getting desperate because of the supply chain. Last thing you do is let loose rabid dogs on injured people.

It's a good assumption to make that everything against the left is potentially infiltrated by glowies. If it's not, then that's just a reason to be happy. You should treat it like you treat journalists—assume they are always lying, and when the opposite is proven then you can be content you found a needle in a haystack.

David Hines is half right, and half full of shit.
It's borderline delusional to think the reason law enforcement can't roll up and prosecute antifa networks is because they're just so cleverly decentralized. If a Jan 6 protestor smashed a Capitol cop on the head with a bike lock, do you think he'd get to plea down to a trivial misdemeanor and handed a suspended sentence? If a bunch of disaggregated, unsorted, decentralized white supremacists started burning down buildings and smashing windows, do you think law enforcement would just stand by? The feds literally arrested 1/6 people and threw them in solitary without a trial or filing charges. They don't do that to antifa.
The strength of lefty organizers is they create noise to justify something that their allies in the Democratic Party wanted to do anyway. That's why they get results, while everything from the Tea Party to the Stop the Steal protests got zero traction. The biggest difference between violent Communists and your average Republican voter is that the latter has few to no real allies in a major political party. The average Republican politician finds Republican voters to be a distasteful, embarrassing crowd that he'd rather win without, and only panders to because he still can't figure out how to get those much more fashionable POC and educated white voters on his side.
This is also why antifa can't stage operations in red areas. If they don't have a sympathetic blue government, what will happen is they'll get shot by civilians and rounded up by cops. Nobody's going to entertain their shit. So step 1 is controlling key offices in government, not organizing riots.

I do get those vibes from a lot of boomercons and other current era right wing groups in the western world.
They probably need to take lessons from non white right wing groups like the Taliban or the mullahs in Iran over how to organize and deal with lefties if Hitler is a bit too edgy.

The Rights problem is that for too long the majority of them ignored the lowest of the low level elected offices (School Boards, Comptroller, etc) and useful but time consuming position like poll water, etc. This allowed RINO and other leftest to get into the system and work their way up the party chain.
Now? After seeing the crap their children are being taught and how the current crop of teachers actually views their kids they are starting to realize it all starts at the bottom. The School Boards stuff is just the beginning while the rest really, really need to start reading Saul Alinsky Rules for Radicals.

Don't forget the Zionist shilling but I wonder if that is because of the voters more since a majority of Republican voters still buy into the whole keep Israel safe so Jesus comes and kills the kikes for the lulz.
Reagan and his crowd of government is the problem, government bad and its very bad really discourages public office for the most part.
That one TV show with that one dude who hates on the gubmint, Parks and Recreation iirc, gets cucked in the end and its a fitting end for many of those types.
Government corruption will be something that will never ever be fixed but to abandon the whole thing was a error.
