ooh patches would be great. Maybe velcro patches for ball caps?

Yea it’s not an uniform but it’s professional

We’d look more organized immediately. Not suggesting that we are not

Patches are available. Buy them up so we can get more merch

agreed, I'm trying to walk the line of avoiding the white polo/khaki uniform look lol

@Valaska thanks! will check out

Yep! Identitarian Zone @Valaska

@Jacob I think a "help WigNats productively channel energy and look better" project could be beneficial to IE indirectly. It could prevent tragic events. And eventually after a period of betterment and reflection a few of they could apply.

Martin casually strolls in lol

That’s sort of what <#497878998949429249> is meant to be @Wood-Ape - OK/MN

@Matthias I mean for the general "alt right" audience. Not members.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN I had a similar idea a while ago.

"Hope Not Hate", but to turn them into identitarians rather than liberals

I see

Think of it as a community service

Haha

I have no idea what alt skull has been up to lately, sucks that he's apparently gone wignat. back when I was still on twitter he was a really good follow. the alt skull that i knew back then was great for IE, idk what happened. he'd be a good target for what wood ape is talking about

“hi EthnoGroyper1488, we’re with IE and we’re concerned about you. Why don’t you have a seat?”

There are effective arguments to make to them, about cargo-culting, and how all movements need to live in its current context.

we have to make the point to them that *our* approach gets us closer to *their* ideal world more effectively

@Alex Kolchak - NY exactly!

having a major news station (accidentally) give you favorable coverage in front of a million viewers is more “radical” than running around in a stallhelm

how do people not get this

Really great article for any I.E. members in the agriculture field. https://research.calvin.edu/german-propaganda-archive/bauerntag36.htm

How Communism effects rural living.

Being in IE for a few weeks is a pretty good deradicalizing agent, honestly. If you can't adapt and understand that our org and movement's culture is the way forward for our people, you are likely beyond help.

@Papa Pizzagate Ian..how are you sir? Is there a agriculture server?

There's a section in the skills server.

@hbutzer0511 there is agriculture in the skills server

@Papa Pizzagate @ThisIsChris Copy

@hbutzer0511 @Der Seeteufel - SD who i met at DTR is a terrific dude, and could probably talk about that all day.

I was wondering how @Der Seeteufel - SD is, he used to post all the time about his farm

I'm very busy

@Papa Pizzagate @ThisIsChris Yep.. remember his posts. Heading back to school for sustainable agriculture. Would enjoy picking his brain

I might be a softy but it breaks my heart every time we lose a brother. I don’t know this particular situation and I don’t know what he was saying. But I do know that it saddens me every time we lose a member. I am wondering if perhaps a more wise approach would be for the leadership of IE to have some sort of an intervention if you will, instead of kicking people out. Sometimes people simply need to be reigned in a bit and even reprimanded... in a loving way. I worry that when we kick people out, we make potential enemies who might become so bitter and resentful that they might try to get back at us. Again, I don’t know this particular situation: perhaps this guy had already been talked to, I don’t know. All I know is that if I ever said something that was not in line with IE, i would hope the leadership would talk to me first and let me know that unless I “change” , my membership is in jeopardy. Am I being too much of a softy?

We lost someone?

Driving this from sun up to sun down.

👆 😂 👏 <:deye:359010025223618570>

@Der Seeteufel - SD Check out my article link I just posted above.

Will do

Inspiring

@Grayson I think your comment is in line with current moderator and leadership thinking. Most of the discussion or intervention is done in the DMs or between coordinator and member. I believe there have been a few instances of mentorship with younger members whose irl persona was exemplary but whose online persona needed much improvement
