Whitefish as a "model of resistance"

I'm concerned about the removal of "model of resistance" text and references from the article, but don't want to have a discussion in revert messages. @Otterstone stated "This niche confrontation isn't relevant in "Arts in Culture" nor is nessesacy for an town article Wiki. (See Misplaced Pages:Too much detail)".

It was added by @Adflatuss in 2020, and is supported by an incredibly detailed article with references to other events and articles, plus a few other sources. So it's not a "niche confrontation". Nor does a single sentence with several citations seem like "too much detail". It was originally in the lede but was eventually moved to "arts and culture". Perhaps it should go elsewhere? tedder (talk) 17:35, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

The City of Whitefish repudiates the ideas and ideology of the white nationalist and so called alt-right as a direct affront to our community's core values and principles."
• NPR Morning Edition, 2018: Descending On A Montana Town, Neo-Nazi Trolls Test Where Free Speech Ends, goes on to say "Montana - and the Flathead Valley that surrounds Whitefish in particular - has long been a haven for white supremacists and other political extremists such as militias."
