They have a list of public protests that they have held on their web site. If you review those I think you have to admit that they are not woke BLMers or antifafa.

Here is their description of their Memorial Day marches:

Activists held joint memorial marches in San Antonio, Texas and Nashville, Tennessee. These observations of Memorial Day stand in contrast to the commonplace, degrading gestures given by state office or those who find American life valuable enough to honor once it has past in conflict, but not so valuable that we must wage our battles for the nation alone.

In San Antonio, the activists proceeded through downtown and held a speech in front of Alamo Plaza, on the very grounds that the storied battle took place nearly two centuries ago. For perhaps the first time since the cannons roared on that prairie, a great number of Americans echoed the same spirit that made sacred that rocky soil. Surrounding the hallowed site are peddlers of innumerable useless trinkets, desperate attempts to pry money from the crowds with drink or game. Consumerism won the battle for the city more divisively than the foreign armies which once assailed the soldiers of the Alamo.

In Nashville, the activists crossed the Cumberland River, and travelled through the city to reach a large Great War memorial located within Legislative Plaza. Day by day, oblivious pedestrians and disgraceful bureaucrats irreverently walk past the countless names of the vanquished placed upon the walls of the plaza. The venues for vice, and obscene displays of indulgence are packed wall to wall, yet the sites of the men who granted the prosperity that is now relentlessly abused are as silent as the graves of the men to which they are dedicated.

We wage war against the despair that has been inflicted upon our people. The countless humiliations and injustices are our opponents in this battle for the national spirit. To embody a revolutionary conviction is to make ones soul inhospitable to the deepest reaches of tyranny over the minds of men. Realizations that the world is within grasp, that the future is unwritten, deny the enemies of our nation the one thing that they can never force us to yield. Our sacred honor.

Beautiful conviction is spiritual revolution. Life is not so dear to us, and comfort is not so cherished that we will bear witness to the corruption of the modern state idle. Cultural tyranny exalts the conveniences of conventional life above all else, and tells us that nothing is worth the discomfort that opposing it would bring. We disagree. The price of our lives is an unbroken chain of resistance from when our eyes are first open to the nation's cause, to the very ends of our strength, and our youth.. Until there are new generations of the nation's faithful ready to answer the call that will only fall silent when the last patriot sheds the last drop of American blood.

Pretty clearly they are opposed to BLM and Antifa, diametrically opposed.

I also notice that they are able to pull off events without ending up fighting battles in the street with antifa.

That's a skill that a lot of others on the right lack. Just yesterday that attempt by some people to protest the spa that is letting men walk around in the ladies dressing room (because they say they are "trans") devolved into fights and beatings when the antifa showed up.

Even Trump rally attendees were subjected to beatings from Leftist thugs while the police stood by and watched.

I've said for a while: the Right can't use the tactics of the Left successfully. (Of course, a lot of their tactics we denounce, and would have no interest in using.) Specifically, the idea that you can publically announce and hold a patriotic rally in many parts of the USA in 2021 is a silly one.

The leftists don't care. No matter what the supposed topic is of the rally, even something utterly mundane in seemingly inoffensive like "honoring our flag" will bring out the antifa ghouls who train on how to disrupt rallies they oppose. Quite a few well-meaning people have ended up in the hospital because of them. (Andy Ngo for one.)

Remember, this was a police set-up against Trump supporters. They were led right into the mob. (Same tactic the police used in Charlottesville. Which was worse, they then arrested the victims of the mob attack for defending themselves.)

San Jose: Lawsuit over violent Donald Trump rally settled

The headline is misleading, it makes it sound like the Trump rally attendees were violent. But that's not what happened, and the article does a pretty good job of explaining it.

The use of mild tactics and the expectations that we grew up with, like openly rallying for causes we believed in, attending major party campaign rallies and expecting the police to maintain order,those are NOT things that today's 20 year old rightist or conservatives expect.

It's not what they've experienced.

And of course, in Portland the Antifa ambushed, shot and killed a random person walking back from his car from a rally.
