Yet another casualty of that fateful day in August.

Task & Purpose:

A Marine who was accused of marching with white supremacists and attacking a protester at last year’s “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, was found guilty a summary court-martial on Monday, officials told Task & Purpose.

Lance Cpl. Vasillios Pistolis was sentenced to 28 days of confinement, reduction in rank to E-1, and forfeiture of two-thirds pay for one month, 1st Lt. Samir J. Glenn-Roundtree told Task & Purpose, adding that the Marine will be afforded seven days to submit a request for clemency.

Pistolis had been charged with failure to obey an order or regulation and making a false official statement under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, T&P was informed on earlier on Monday.

ProPublica reported in May that Pistolis is a member of a neo-Nazi group and bragged in an online chat room about attacking a woman at the Aug. 12, 2017 rally.

Pistolis is assigned to Combat Logistics Battalion-8, Combat Logistics Regiment 2, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

That’s a rough sentence, but at least he wasn’t discharged.

No one could have predicted the hell that would come down on us after Charlottesville, and we must continue to honor the heroes who went there, and do everything we can to help those whose lives were ruined.

But we also need to learn from this.

The protest movement thing simply is not viable right now, and all it leads to is ruined lives, expensive lawsuits and state crackdowns.

We are not going to have a revolution by marching through the streets. At least not any time soon. For that, we would need 100 times the numbers we have now.

We need to simply continue to do what we do best, what the Alt-Right gained massive traction as, and that is to influence the culture.

Politics are downstream from culture, and it is the culture that we can exert direct influence on and win.

We need to fight on battlegrounds that we can win on. That is just basic good strategy.

We are fighting a war and we should be fighting to win it.
