    Yeah, I’m less worried about the PB who have likely peaked than I am groups like Patriot Front, which is much younger in its composition.

    While we can, and all should be concerned about the PB, they end up being pretty high profile, and therefore easy to keep track of. They’re also very likely ‘peaked’ in-terms of popularity, whereas groups like Patriot Front were in the ascendancy. Peak PB and bougalou were like, 2019, 2020, 2021. They’ve been far less active ever since, but this is classic for these movements. When BLM was going strong, this gave them an opposition to recruit around.
