I probably sound like a worn-our record, but the important thing about 6 January was that it was huge gift to the Left, one that will continue to pay dividends to them for a long time to come. Fortunately, they have so many negatives working against them, that despite 6 January, patriots may do very well in the elections next November.
We need to keep hoping that they continue to push Critical Race Theory in the schools, and that a section of their loyal voter base keeps committing organized looting, especially of pricey shops located in white liberal areas.
And, not that I wish any of our people any harm, another Waukesha or two, committed by low-IQ low-impulse control people who have been told that their own failures are all due to white people, would not hurt our chances either.
And ... we need to organize at the ground level, so that at any future demonstrations, we have hundreds, or thousands, of men in organized groups, prepared to defend the demonstration, but under the command of cool-headed leaders who are intimately familiar with the law governing the use of force, and in particular deadly force, by non-law enforcement personnel. As a secondary mission they could prevent provocations like 6 January. (Although agents provocateurs may have initiated the Capitol invasion, our side has enough naive people so that they could get plenty of followers.)
Both the Oathkeepers and the Three Percenters had the right idea, but both had leaderships which were inadequate to the task, which is mainly political, not quasi-military. Your group can be armed to the teeth, and have hundreds of combat-experienced vets ready to move, but if you fall into a trap like 6 January, all you will do is get a lot of people killed or imprisoned.
So ... we need to know the laws governing the use of force, and also the laws defining sedition. There are still plenty of patriots who think they can write anything they like -- "traitors should be hung" -- and there will be no consequences. On the contrary, you can go to prison just for writing something that a compliant justice system defines as conspiracy to commit violence.
Three decent men in George may spend the rest of their lives in prison because they were unwise in their understanding of when to undertake a "Citizens' arrest". (Basically: never.)
There is an eccentric anarchist in Florida who is now in prison and will be for several years, who got there because he wrote something stupid on his Facebook page.

This is by far the most important lesson of 6 January. It's purely negative:
don't set yourself up by saying or writing things which, when repeated to a cold unsmiling jury by a prosecutor, can get you locked up. Just imagine if Kyle Rittenhouse had, just once, written something like "we must eradicate all enemies of America" -- something I've seen written dozens of times by people who have let their emotions outrun their thinking. We would have heard it quoted fifty times an hour during the trial and it might well have swayed jurors away from their final, correct, verdict.
And note that any serious organization will be penetrated by informants -- there is no way to prevent this. They are there not only to record, but to encourage patriots to say something worth recording.
And we must not forget the role of Russians, working from abroad via social media, trying to stir up violence within the US. The so-called 'Boogaloo Bois' were probably incited to commit their murders by some of these people.
We're playing by "Big Boys' Rules" now. The other side have neither honor nor conscience, and will do everything they can ... especially in the run-up to the elections next year ... to manufacture some sort of 'domestic right-wing terrorist threat'. We mustn't aid them in this.
