Far-Right Extremists Tell One Another to Stay Home, Fight Another Day

[Mr. Sparkle]

In the wake of the Capitol Hill riots, the federal government deployed 15,000 National Guard members and Washington, D.C. is under, essentially, military occupation to protect against the threat of yet more domestic terrorism. But online, many of the same far-right extremists who cheered on the chaos in Congress that killed five people only weeks ago have been advising followers to stay home, bide their time, and organize to fight another day.

The slew of FBI arrests of extremists who participated in the storming of Capitol Hill on Jan. 6, including the QAnon Shaman and several veterans, and large-scale deplatforming on social media apps has convinced many on the far right that it's not the right time time to attack state capitals or disrupt the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden in D.C. “I urge everyone to avoid DC and the State Capitols and instead use this time to close all accounts related to BigTech,” reads one post by a rightwing pundit on Telegram, the app of choice among neo-Nazis and terror groups. “[S]top giving them your money and start rebuilding your networks on Alt Tech platforms, Alt Comms, alt media, alt social media, alt banking, alt fundraising, alt payment processing alt everything!”

Reports have indicated that the question of what to do on January 20 has resulted in the fracturing of the precarious union formed by disparate far-right groups like the Proud Boys, militias, and Q followers in advance of the January 6 protest. The result is that the number of protesters around the country seems likely to be only a small fraction of what was initially expected. Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the nationalist street fighting gang the Proud Boys and an outspoken figure within the extreme right political scene, told followers to stay home on January 20 and instead plan for the next four years of activism.

1. back under their rocks and bridges

until another repuke dogwhistles for them.

[C Moon]

3. Yep!

[cstanleytech]

30. They wont go to far under those rocks so be ready to get stung at any moment by the venomous little

pieces of shit.

[Dawson Leery]

2. And the FBI/NSA need to track their moves and online chat.

[ancianita]

11. They are. They'll slowly come to tell themselves that they'll never fight another day.

imo

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

15. They all gave Parler their SS#'s...

... when they signed up. Social Security numbers tend to last a lifetime.

[NCjack]

17. When they entered the Capitol, the cell phone system recorded their tel numbers,

rooms they visited, and the time.

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

19. Yes, that, too...

... amidst the hubbub of morning, that part skipped my mind. And therefore, I will hazard a guess that they all are in a suspected domestic terrorist database.

[IronLionZion]

22. I expect Merrick Garland's DoJ will take a harder stance against these people

so they may have gotten cocky and complacent during Trump, but will face consequences going forward.

[soothsayer]

4. Just go away and try to love America, you crazy cuckoos

[DemocraticPatriot]

50. If they are dissatisfied, I invite them to move to Russia. nt

[Mystery sage]

5. So that's what that slithering sound was.

[yaesu]

6. meaning, go back to drinking beer while watching the bug zapper. nt

[sinkingfeeling]

7. The "Storm" turned out to be just a few snowflakes.

[certainot]

46. that's what happens when the cream of the crop, their leaders, get sucked to DC to show their beans

and end up in jail, maybe for decades

these guys were great examples

[LittleGirl]

8. Cry in your beer

You fuckers! You were lied to and he lost.
Grow up!

[Bengus81]

9. Huh!?! They claimed there was a MILLION of them at the Capitol.

Looked like 2-3 thousand to me if even that many.

[DENVERPOPS]

23. I would like to see

a video that shows the size of the Trump crowd at the airfare base during his goodbye......

[Bengus81]

28. Half of them were Trumps POS grifter family......

[Laha]

10. They think the law enforcement agencies aren't watching those channels too?

I'm no tech wizard, but I could find them easily. These fools are going to provide for some interesting entertainment over the next few years. As long as they don't kill anyone.

[Ford_Prefect]

18. Forrest Gump said it best about the stupid...

[marble falls]

34. If I can find them, my eight year old GS can find them. Law enforcement is all over them now.

[Oscarthegreat]

12. Just like venomous snakes

When venomous snakes sense danger they slither under a rock and wait for another opportunity to strike. if they continue to fear us, they will continue to hide because they are essentially cowards. The point is to always be brave and never allow them to slither out from under their rocks.

[TheRealNorth]

53. Exactly

[Harker]

13. A few of them might've figured out that taking selfies

while committing crimes isn't very smart.

[ProfessorGAC]

14. In Other Words...

There are people ready to shoot back.
Intimidating is harder when people with M-4s are there!

[spooky3]

24. That's my thought too-- 25000 troops told to shoot if necessary are a much more

formidable barrier than understaffed police who were probably told not to shoot (among many other problems).

[DENVERPOPS]

31. They only like it

when it is 100 to 1, in their favor, and that they are armed and the others aren't.......

[WinstonSmith4740]

49. Exactly.

When there are people able and willing to shoot back, suddenly they're just a bunch of misunderstood patriots. As soon as the cavalry showed up at the Capitol and took control, they were suddenly, "What? Insurrection? I thought this was the line to The Haunted Mansion!"

[Roc2020]

16. Once the campaign for the midterms

start up they will be out again in force. I give it a year at the most. Dems better not sleep again as they did 2016.

[IronLionZion]

20. Or these fuckers can just leave this country

they can go to Siberia if they want everything to be homogenous like Melania's Christmas decorations. Diversity in the US is unstoppable now.

[LiberalLovinLug]

21. I figured this would happen.

So they leave the Capital basically unguarded despite weeks of warnings of an insurrection. The inevitable happens.

So then they go way overboard with a show of "strength". Somewhat ruining what should be a day of celebration, no troops, just peace and hope and support for the new administration.

And the Proud Boys, Boogaloos, KKK, etc... will "stand down" for now, knowing they will be defeated badly, and the media will roast them. They will wait and be ready to strike, on State houses if not Federal, whenever the extra security leaves.

[spooky3]

25. I'm not as pessimistic. The change in leadership is a big factor. I believe there were insiders

involved before Jan. 6, possibly directed by Trump's minions. With Biden's team in the White House, and Republicans in the minority in Congress, these seditionists aren't going to be protected. And a lot of eyes have been opened in the FBI and elsewhere.

[TeamPooka]

26. They are going back to watching Duck Dynasty and prepper videos online

[llashram]

27. best place for them

given what they have caused in this country for a leader not worth the salt in my sweat.

[NoMoreRepugs]

29. Do they think "alt-sites" are some sort of double dog dare big secret from the FBI??

The collective wisdom of these goobers could fit into one of their camo backpacks already full of snacks.

[niyad]

37. The third word in your title is the problem. They don't.

[oldsoftie]

32. another reason to hope Bitcoin falls apart. nt

[marble falls]

33. Chicken shits.

[Crowman2009]

35. They thought Trump loved them!

Qidiots: Why haven't you returned my calls?!?!

Don't they know that no cash = no pardon? 😁

[Nitram]

36. This is NOT a "military occupation." The term is reserved for occupation of a hostile foreign

country. The US has bases in Japan, but we ended our military "occupation" of Japan in 1951.

[Nitram]

38. They don't want to go to jail. They would never risk their lives.

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

39. All the strategies employed for deterring them from attacking were successful.

Bravo to all law enforcement agencies and others who successfully employed these strategies that protected the inauguration and State Capitols nationwide. No one was hurt, as far as I know.

That is serious success.

[world wide wally]

40. It will be a better day now that the head of the snake has been cut off

[KG]

41. 'stay home - there are real soldiers w/ real guns there today'

[ProfessorGAC]

45. Basically What I Said...

...on a different thread on this topic.
"There are people who will shoot back? Forget it!"

[FailureToCommunicate]

42. Yeah, stay home, and complain again to your mom how lousy the wifi is in your basement.

[hadEnuf]

43. As usual, these fithy tratiors, terrorists and Nazis are cowards when faced with a more level

playing field. They are only big-badasses with people who are unarmed or are at a disadvantage.

These vermin need to be driven back under their slimly rocks and back into their stinking sewers.

[badboy67]

44. The Gov't is watching these people.

I hope long prison sentences are doled out to the Capitol insurrectionists who are convicted of serious crimes. The Q folk can now know that Donald abandoned them without pardons and left them to twist in the wind.

[Warpy]

47. Translation: "Shit! The cops are onto us! Lay low!"

I just hope they get enough of the charismatic boys at the top to decapitate the whole business.

[DemocraticPatriot]

48. COWARDS!

The revolution will not be televised... because all the rebels decided they were safer hiding under their beds.

(And rightly so!)

[JohnnyRingo]

51. And to protest what, exactly?

Clean air? Health insurance? The hopeful end of Covid?

They can't possibly think they'll try to overturn the election for four years.

[TallMike]

52. Nope

Their Mom was making smashed 'taters.
What's a Gravy Seal to do?
Pry or i ties dng it!

[quaker bill]

54. Angry and armed? Yes

hungry and desperate? No

Take a look at any photo of real insurgents, there are lots of examples around the world. They are all angry, armed but also look hungry and desperate, always. They never look like guys who are cracking beers and stopping by the burger place on their way home to the suburbs. Real insurgents do not worry about getting arrested, they fight lean, and would find a larger concentration of enemy troops attractive as just that much more to shoot at.

These privileged white bois want revolution on the cheap, if they actually want it at all. What I think they really want is to drink and whine about their cherished free-dumbs. The free-dumb to be conned by gun and ammo salesmen into believing that if they spend just a little more, they will be powerful. But they have spent a bunch on their shiny noise makers already, and still fold the moment opposition shows up.

All that needs to happen to flush them is to keep up the pressure with regular arrests. We have signals intelligence that captures pretty much anything we care to read from all over the planet. The notion that they can find alt-media that they can use with their GPS enabled tracking device smart phones without it being read by law enforcement at a moment's notice, just shows how dumb they are.
