If any of these guys were REALLY posing ANY resistance, they wouldn't be allowed to commodify it.
We've seen how govts, with the help of banks, payment processors, and credit card companies, have de-banked and de-platformed the people and movements that have actually been genuine, organic resistance.

These were completely unknown people, private citizens, yet they collectively scared the shit out of govts because they weren't part of their controlled opposition.
Meanwhile, these other guys are out in the open selling merch and doing yearly podcast tours.
