This headline from AFPost is misleading. I was a guest at the event, seated in the VIP section alongside several Florida District 13 Republican leaders. The event through @RepLuna and featured Byron Donalds @ByronDonalds , Ashleigh Moody @AshleyMoodyFL , and Jim Jordan @Jim_Jordan as speakers. Mr. Fishback is an agitating propagandist. He is attempting to spread anti-liberty concepts (what amounts to a form of Critical America Theory) alongside radical formulations of Christian Nationalism. Christian Nationalism of this stripe is simply Roman Catholic Integralism with Protestant characteristics: a rejection of classical liberalism, religious liberty, and the American order in favor of subordinating the state (and economy) to a quasi-spiritual authority for the “common good.” Fishback is attempting to use Trotsky-inspired entryism to gain control of Florida’s young conservatives. @ConceptualJames has done quite a bit of work exposing entryism strategies over the last 7 years. Entryism is a strategic process of infiltration into an institution (in this case, conservative Florida politics) by hostile forces - the strategy of entering an institution and insinuating yourself as a subversive, disruptor, divider, wedge, or plant in order to eventually transform it from within and bring it into service for your militant ideological ambitions. It is an old Soviet/Communist technique (linked to Trotskyist tactics and “boring from within”) used by Gramscian infiltrators pursuing a “long march through the institutions” to establish counter-hegemonic control. Marxist or Woke entryism, in this sense, means going into and infecting institutions that would not normally welcome the ideology. The pattern is the same whether the content is left-wing Critical Theory or a reactionary faux right-wing Integralist/anti-liberty program. The core premise is to first make entrance, then purge “enemies” (the existing membership and the hegemony, political positions, beliefs, or culture they maintain). The five steps of entryism: 1. Demand access 2. Demand accommodation 3. Demand a seat at the table (access to power) 4. Demand the table (control of the rules/power) 5. Demand control over the institution (or the whole room) Once inside the targeted organization (in this case, the Republican Party of Florida) the entryists do exactly what entryists always do: they sow internal discord (“They kicked me out of the rally!”), introduce polarizing topics on polarizing terms (antisemitism, socialism, “the real right,” etc.), use whatever standing they gain to bring in more of their ideological comrades, and then purge the people who actually belong there. To sum it up: the goal of entryism is simple and always the same: enter an institution (a political party, a church, a movement, a media company), transform or capture it from within, and subordinate it to a radical militant agenda. That’s precisely what the DSA and Justice Democrats already did to the Democratic Party. It’s what the Woke Right and various other entryists are now attempting inside the Republican Party and Christian denominations. Don’t let them. @realannapaulina @RonDeSantis @glennbeck @WillRicci

It isn't your party.
