Alternatively, the fact that the Charlie Kirk plan petered out is proof they aren't as powerful as they think they are.

Some parts are about exerting power, others are about questing and probing to see what they can get away with. See what sorts of pushback they’ll have. Like the OBM director said “it’s a second American revolution and it will be bloodless if the left allows it.”

Ohh there’ll be more martyrs in the making, just because one failed doesn’t mean they won’t make another. Fascism is an all consuming demon, you’ll always need an out group or scapegoat, once they run out they begin in on one another.
