When invoking the "Fed", the more pertinent example is Ruby Ridge rather than Waco. It can also be argued that the whole idea of the "Fed" is a sort of disciplinary and sorting method for dissidents. Anyone that can't keep it in their pants so to speak isn't worth trusting your back to. It does not matter if one is a Fed or not. If they cannot be disciplined enough to not wave signal flares at Sauron then they should be shunned.

These ideas also don't come from nowhere. The FBI is famous for instigating events that they plan just so they can bag some 80 IQ patsy and give themselves commendations. These people are predominantly weak pencil pushers at desks after all.

the Adam Curtis HyperNormalisation segment you played in a video last year about the Russian regime funding both sides of the political chaos is really mind-wormy and relevant w/r/t the "idea of the fed". It's constantly in my mind now - when Keith Woods et al angrily rebut fed accusations against Patriot Front, I can only think "what if Keith and Joel are feds?".

Is it possible to escape this? I don't want to be constantly questioning my friend/enemy sensitivity.

There is a way past this: Courage. Either we do what we must do or just take the blue pill and go back to Matrix. I, for one, care not who the feds are...I plan on bringing their system down by creating a new one, in spite of them. I think AA is saying we can simply ignore them and go about our business of rebuilding civ I lization

It's strange to think that at one time a BBC series (Fall of Eagles) would have an entire episode about Russia funding and fighting it's own opposition. A little too dangerous of an (accidental?) red-pill.

I think this is kind of a fanciful estimation. By definition, anarcho-tyranny IS the manifestation of the ‘No-Go Zones’, BLM, Antifa, non-white crime sprees, and the unwillingness of law enforcement to crack down on these things. So, we cannot use these instances as an appraisal of how they would respond to “fascists” or “nazis” for whom they reserve the utmost tyranny. Perhaps in the realm of foreign policy, the Taliban also exist more in the ‘anarcho’ sphere of that strategy, and the military simply consumed the limited resources allotted to such a nonessential target. If we just restrict the evidence to cases where the suspects were successfully labeled ‘fascists’ or ‘nazis’, the outcome is always the ‘tyranny’. But I am willing to concede this may be a motivational essay of sorts, and I will leave it at that.

AA himself has said that the ideology of the regime is anti fascist which makes a whole lot of sense when you think about it. The regime will stop at nothing to crush the most pure form of modern fascism: white people organising.

Agree. There are white no go areas in the UK, rough estates, they are like that because the police don't care about crime and disorder, if they were "right wing" areas then maybe we would see a different response from the police.

The reliance on panem et circenses to hold down the common yeoman will be dangerous going forward. The more the System spends it's energy on perception (There are no bare shelves in Ba Sing Se) and less on reality (actually getting food back on the shelf) the better. The denizens are already getting anxious in the current situation (which is only the lack of food choice, not the lack of food).

The modern circuses are also going to be less effective. The video game industry is suffering greatly from "cultural enrichment" and even though "go woke, go broke" is a fallacy the ability of video games to straight up function is a growing issue going forward. The magicians in charge of Hollywood's smoke and mirrors of distraction are of lower quality than yesteryear. One just has to look at the stats of the Olympics, the Oscars, and the Oprahs to see their ability to distract the masses is slowly waning.

We'll see if this reaches a critical mass before they relearn to "educate" and "satiate" the public.

Vidya has a lot of practiceable reactionary elements to it, a lot of people in this community came over from gamergate.

Gamergate is just the beginning of the System accidentally expelling trouble-makers from their bread & circuses.
