So, the advantage of this move is to try to legitimize Patriot Front by showing government "opposition" to them? Like "they can't be feds, they got arrested!" sort of thing?

I don't think anyone is buying it.

I would wager so. But the problem is none of them look like they were actually arrested, more like they openly gave up and just got themselves caught. We will have to wait and see if they release any info about the arrest, see if they are real people caught in the glowie trap or if we see Jan 6th style "38 witnesses for this one guy who is getting arrested"
Patriot Front already glowed like shit, this happened because there was an 'informant' on the inside who alerted the Coeur D'Alene cops about it; looks like they had at least one 'smoke grenade' on top of the usual gear.

They didnt resist arrest because its stupid and will just get more charges applied to them?
They are feds, buddy. They know they won't get anything thrown their way. It's a perfomance to try and make the "Patriot" "Front" look legit.
Likely somewhere between 1/4-1/2 of them are probably feds, encouraging the others.
They encourage and push others toward crimes and then arrest them for those crimes.
It's how they justify their continued existence.
Expect the book to be thrown at those who weren't feds.

Yes, i keep forgetting. if your arent a fat shambolic mess waving around your useless firearms you must be a fed, because only feds can be organised, disciplined and fit.
No it's just that half the time some organized shit like this goes down, feds were involved..and that remains true here seeing as it was a fed that was involved that called it in. He probably also played a big role in setting it all up.
People may be quick to jump and call things feds, and that's because they have a long running reputation of being involved in shit like this, and were clearly involved this time as well.

So what's your excuse for the fact that the police just randomly decided to let the guys they arrested keep wearing their identity-concealing masks and sunglasses?

Feds would have these guys waving around firearms and screaming to overthrow the government. Feds would have gotten PF involved in the Jan 6 lolfest. PF has had nothing to do with any of that. Feds want to incite you to do violence and illegal acts. PF has been involved in none of that. Not much of a glow op.
'Conservatives' are just so demoralised they cannot imagine that anyone could possibly do a bit of planning, have some matching shirts and fitness requirements. Planning and organisation is something feds or leftwing groups are supposed to do. Rightwing groups are supposed to be disorganised masses of slobs in tacticool carrying rifles and shouting how 1776 will commence and that dems are the real racists.
And what's the fucking point of whatever it is they are doing?
They are so identifiable it hurts, yet bring light riot gear that does just enough to give cops and media an excuse. Meanwhile due to how recognizable they are they will never get to use it much against the likes of antifa anyway because cops will probably arrest them first anyway.
Basically they act like a rent-a-bogeyman to leftist media and $PLC, complete with moving around by rent-a-truck.
And real deal movement these days, considering how hard is it to get lots of people to show up when the mainstream media are against you, choose numbers over obsessing over looks.
Speaking of demoralized, go compare how they look to another patriotic far right movement, one confirmed to be a real deal in a fucking open war, pretty much the ultimate way a patriotic movement can prove itself - Azov Battalion. They look less uniform even after getting integrated into national guard...
I think there is Texan term that would be fitting here - "all hat, no cattle".

Why are you so desperate to believe Patriot Front is legit?

Not sure I like the idea of Neo-Nazis being compared to us, no matter how remotely. Then again, there aren't a lot of right wing movements fighting inw ars to really choose examples from I suppose.
Because he's the type who like their messaging, and doesn't want to admit that the whole org is a giant fed plot/trap to try to use against the Right.
It's people like him the Fedies keep entrapping in that sort of stupidity, because they actually treat the group as legit.

There are different levels of resisting arrest. I am not saying they should be fighting the cops in fistcuffs to flee, but they look so passive it's downright pathetic. They aren't trying to defend their right to protest, their freedom of speech, to ask the cops what the charges are, or even look strong. It looks worse than when Antifa gets caught, they at least try to stand their moral ground.

Well yes, because "Everybody is an identical and interchangeable faceless personality-less soulless cog in the machine" is a leftist thing and individuality is a right-leaning thing.
Also basic pattern recognition, just look at a typical Antifa group:
If you had them both in the same video game people would accuse you of lazy palette swapping.
Also, because it seems to have been missed when I asked before, what's your excuse for the fact that the police just randomly decided to let the guys they arrested keep wearing their identity-concealing masks and sunglasses?

No, induhvidualism is a libertarian thing, not a traditional conservative or even rightwing thing. The right believes in hierarchy. The influence of lolberts and the unwillingness of conservatives to work together and plan together is why the left wins.
Also basic pattern recognition, just look at a typical Antifa group:
Consistent Body Shape, near-identical uniforms, use of identical masks, eye covering, light riot gear.

Yes. Taking basic precautions to protect your identity means you must be a fed. PF isnt about induhvidualism. Its main goal is to create a cohesive group of young men. So you have lines of command, conceal your identity, stay together, wear matching clothes and carry a shield to defend yourself with. The less distinctive you are, the harder it is to pick you out and indentify you.
You dont run around in an uncontrolled mob looking like a a bunch of fat unkempt biker wannabes with your face showing ready to be easily doxxed. The unwillingness of conservatives to learn from thier mistakes and the successes of thier enemies makes them even more contemptible. If more people on Jan 6 had emulated PF there would have been far less people doxxed and imprisoned.
I have no idea, nor do I care.

And here you're showing your own ignorance of Conservatism. Individualism has always been a core tenet of Conservatism, we simply also recognize that it should exist in balance with healthy, merit-based hierarchical structures.
Also, you still (since the last time PF came up) have failed to address question of what they actually stand for. Last time I checked their site, there was a lot of empty double-speak there, and what substance did exist, was leftist identity politics crap.
I have yet to see a single thing that actually aligns them ideologically with the right wing, which is one reason among many that they look like an obvious glowie front.
