OP
Pete is very cerebral and great in interviews, but not suited for guerilla warfare

We never slacked off and are more pissed off than ever. But where are the leaders to unite and organize powerful and focused efforts?
RIGHT EFFING NOW.
Hints at the post. Pete is one of them for sure!
I am readying a post on Gorilla warfare that we can wage. Gorilla on purpose cuz they throw shit. Tired of throwing daisies at morans.
FAFO flags, even as little cards you print up and leave in appropriate places --- and vanish
Go for it.

He's not bombastic enough. Pete is superb in debates and interview though. Same with Jeffries. We got too many nerds and smart people on our side.
Someone like Tim Ryan would be good, even if I don't care for him. But his style and punch factor would be great for guerilla warfare.
