seems never to bear any real fruit yet they persist.

Operation Trust on a more microlevel, i.e. wait and keep spinning your wheels, vent/release, etc.

I think AmRen just likes to toe the line as much as possible. I understand why they do this and think it's necessary. There are many paths that lead out of the cave most people are living in, hence all the "(blank) to Alt-Right pipeline" articles. A consistent piece of all these "blanks" begins with questioning something, e.g economics (libertarians/anti-affirmative action), women/feminism (redpill/MGTOWers/MRAs), history (revisionism), contemporary media (drag queen story hour, MSM narratives, etc.), NEETs to SIGers (aka "why does my life suck", Jordan Peterson and others), environmentalism (Ted, nuclear power, etc.), politics (Communists, neoconservatives, the only non-partisan issue), nature vs. nurture (biology is upstream of behavior which is upstream of all the social construct nonsense), to name a few. A second piece is actually being open-minded and having humility ("what am I wrong or misinformed about?"). Hence why we see the rise of factchecking nonsense (outsourcing executive functioning). Getting these two pieces in motion with someone, questioning something and then being receptive to new information, is a useful approach in deprogramming people. Find whatever they care about and then, to use our opponents language, deconstruct it through questioning.
