      It’s doublespeak, a la 1984. In this case many of the words used are inversions of their usual meaning.

      I’ll provide some translations:

      patriots -> seditionists

      biblical -> cloaked in the authority of God – which here must be explicitly stated because their actions are opposed to any God of justice

      open boarders -> following legal and ethical principles (remember, these people oppose ethical principles)

      peacemakers -> those who use violence, or the threat of violence, to obstruct peace. See also, terrorists

      besieged by dark forces of evil -> opposed by morality, ethics, or the law. The addition of “on all sides” changes the ‘or’ to ‘and’

      As a bonus, “globalists” is antisemitism. There’s an old canard that justice for minorities = communism = Jewish conspiracy. This is particularly common among nazis. The convoy organizer is signaling that their group is accepting of these ideas
