A) You don't just take to the streets and win a civil war. Controlling the streets is more of a late stage move when you already have established elites and resources to back you.
B) PF always does something that is most convenient for leftist narrative building without actually accomplishing anything.
Those are the two primary critiques of PF, which always get ignored in favor of something about fitness as you just did. Lifting is good. Knowing how to fight is good. They are not simply not hurting my enemies in any meaningful way; they are helping my enemies by giving them more justification to hurt my friends, which is very bad.
I think even more damaging than the bad PR of the group is that we now suspect any slightly radical right wing group that does ANYTHING to be feds. This has effectively paralyzed the radical right, and I suspect planting this suspicion is more likely to be the fed op.
Don't mistake this as an accusation. The feds that planted this I think are more likely to be active on "anonymous" forums.

I would have to agree with you about the fed accusations being an actual fed op.
Its not organic and contradicts the original glowie meme, which provides a humerous (and effective) solution to the fed question.
