Long march through the institutions is a thing made up by a German student activist and has no known organizational heft beyond this. The article itself cannot name a single organization or achievement under this strategy. The Federalist Society is well-documented, in was founded in and organizes within the country we're talking about, hosts multiple conventions with close ties to conservative Supreme Court members, who have known to attend and give speeches advocating for extreme political interpretation, and who has been repeatedly reported to be the de facto gatekeeper for opportunities to judicial and legal positions under Republican government.
