An IWW revival is underway, and presently helping to coordinate strikes and non-cooperation by incarcerated workers, a.k.a. slave labor: [1]http://mkegmb.org/ A new outfit calling itself Redneck Revolt is growing fast. Among other things they organize events at rifle ranges. What do they mean by redneck? Hehehe I remember "Radical Greasers".

Over the last decade or so I have seen a trend in attendance at openly promoted Klan and Nazi rallies in the U.S. Counter demonstrators have started to routinely outnumber the intended turnout, by larger margins as time goes by.

But given time and work, it can be done. References 1. http://mkegmb.org/ 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rising_Up_Angry 3. https://www.redneckrevolt.org/
