Fash haven't learned from our propaganda of the deed era around how much harder things get for your movements when people do extreme shit

they don't have enough broad support so far as I can tell

so more moderate places will have to crack down on them (like how facebook just banned more white things)

and their individual links to their broader movements will be exposed in ways that hurt them

I agree that they won't crack down on white supremacists as hard as us

but there's been a clear backlash against white supremacist stuff since christchurch

Isn't there a difference in that many States may in fact support these acts,

Agreed that overall many states will, but states are also not singular entities, they're made up of many people, a lot of whom will have a problem with this stuff and be able to make moves

Most liberal and even many conservative racists aren't down with overt / egregious white supremacy and are willing to make real moves against it within their frameworks at governmental levels

Whereas with anarchist potd there is no sympathy from authoritarians at all?

agreed, but the effect I'm talking about is still there

A white supremacist state isn't going to attack the average racist just because there was a racist terrorist attack, but they will absolutely attack normal activists & anarchists if there is an anarchist terrorist attack.

The average racist is very different to an anarchist or activist in that anarchists and activists are active
but 'active' racists like milo and cantwell etc will and are getting backlash presently for their shit
