They though going woke would save them from more goverment regulation

That would be a good idea. Though the propaganda organs would lambaste them for doing that... “collusion”, you know. But I agree, for them to get a collective backbone they need to organize and support each other (and we on the right should give them our vocal support and business).

You are correct; they would have to do it the way Soros, the Clintons and the Obamas do it, by having one individual set up a fund-raising foundation that they could contribute to, and that in turn doles out the money to smaller activist groups.

The problem with conservatives is that they scold each other for edgy behavior, no matter what the provocation. The now-defunct DC Chapter of FR stood outside the Walter Reed Army Hospital every Friday night for seven years, rain, shine, or snow, to face off against the wicked admittedly communist protest group, including VVAW, a government employees union, and Code Pink, who were at the gates every Friday. They were protesting the war, trying to unionize the soldiers— and horrifying the families of the troops, who had to pass their gauntlet to get in and see their wounded son, daughter, husband, wife or father. They had terrible signs like "babykiller" and "Bushitler", fake coffins, etc, but when we put up a series of signs that called the Code Pink shrews "hags", countless freepers posted outrage that we would stoop so low.

We were probably the last of the organized counterprotesters in DC, having finished the job in 2012 when the WR base actually moved to another location. Now, if the left throws a Molotov cocktail at a patriot and the patriot kicks it out of the way, the patriot gets arrested.
