not mr beast
I hate that we have to make a new one of these every couple of months now.
This is a graph a friend of mine made about the number of Patriot Front WLGs that marched in DC vs the massive Klan march of 1926 in DC.
If the estimates on the PF membership are accurate, then it was almost all of them dressing and acting like the weird dorks that they are. My feelings on the level of dorkiness of Patriot Front members is that they are the dorkiest dorks in all of Dorkland. Dorks so dorky that other dorks find them repellent.
One of our Iron Front USA members just published a field manual. It was written by a former USAF TACP operator and personal protection professional. It's called The Gray Man Field Manual: Low-Profile Movement, Threat Avoidance, and Situational Awareness for Security Professionals and Civilians.
(We know, boooo Amazon. We'll be looking into a less evil platform for publishing like AK Press or the like, but in the meantime, this is the best we've got.)
It's built around what they call statistical indistinguishability - the principle of reducing your personal signature until you are simply not worth noticing. The content is U.S.-specific, with dedicated regional analysis for the Northeast, West, Central, and South covering behavioral baselines, environmental norms, and region-specific blending requirements.
It covers:
Visual and behavioral camouflage in civilian environments
Managing personal signatures - visual, acoustic, digital, and olfactory
Surveillance detection and counter-surveillance for civilians
Low-profile route planning and movement discipline
Crowd integration and disengagement techniques
Environmental threat identification and pattern analysis
Psychological stability and stress effects on awareness
Practical drills and region-specific equipment appendices
The Gray Man Field Manual on Amazon if anyone wants to check it out. All proceeds go to the group/towards the various expenses incurred by maintaining a political activist organization - gear, food, travel, etc. etc.
