If Jazzhands actually was a fed then that might be the key to understanding what happened to Allsup. The powers that be could easily organize a situation in which FTN required a new co-host at the same time James was banned from YouTube, hoping that his known connections to TRS would result in him getting hired. After that, organizing his departure from white nationalism would be simple and look who the system replaced him with: Warren Balogh, who as I said earlier in the thread is just a repeat of Spencer's false positives. Warren is a dumbass who doesn't have any ideas other than to keep bashing our collective head against the wall with the band of merry wignats he is no doubt putting together; a far cry from Allsup who had great optics (i.e. signalling true positives) while also being receptive to the far right. Total system victory.
TRS will likely be able to keep limping along. I remember reading a prediction for ~~tHe KeElStReEm~~ that it would become like a Chinese restaurant that is just barely able to keep the lights on and is a mystery to outsiders as to how it stays in business: this is the fate that awaits Mike, Sven and Alex over the next decades.
If anything all the feds need to do is do nothing to win. The alt-right is currently selecting for bad people, it's dysgenic in an organizational sense. James Allsup, a fresh and upcoming podcast guy would be perceived as a treat to their comfy job and force them to actually put in more effort to the podcasts.
What Allsup lacked is perspective. When you are young and actually touched grass you don't have a deep knowledge about the death spiral patterns organizations do when they can't actually do much and are under too much pressure. From a naive perspective it makes sense to trying to go to an org, that seems to have the means and infrastructure to keep the podcasting going. Also he wouldn't need to worry about the technical and distribution stuff, a Network would do it for him.
The Fed are real, don't get me wrong, but they don't need to micromanage things this hard.
Where I really see the glow is the NPJ's tactics and strategy. TRS, a group that was burned by Cwille and the TWP decided to make a group that will make goon marches and shouting at Jewish grandpas on behalf of Palestine. So basically the bad optics they were against all along.
Also there is this tactic of the system to take any sort of protest, movement and whatnot. Insert two guys with Confederate / NAZI flags and then the media can run round saying "evil nazi protests". I wouldn't want to be that guy, that's for sure.
I think a huge part of the political failures beside the lack of resources and power, is something I would call "playing the role", basically the system provides you templates to follow, even for dissident activity. These false models are used. It may not be intentional, just how culture/media is having a ton of shorthand on how to behave in society.
So, if you want to do non mainstream politics, basically adapt the strategies of the 1960s left. Make small orgs, do leafleting, do protests etc. That is what political action is supposed to be, by cultural osmosis, right?
