Good, fuck the NRA and especially Wayne LaPierre in particular. Unfortunately I don't think anything will change any time soon.
-
Things have already changed. You'll notice that 2A shit has not been talked about by pretty much anyone for the last couple of years. The NRA was one of the main lobbyists for that garbage, but now they are both nearly bankrupt and pulling in almost no money (membership is way down).
These lawsuits have crippled the org. I'm naively optimistic we may see actual gun legislation now they we don't have that org bribing politicians.

we need to arm ourselves to defeat the fascist menace, tough. they have more guns than they know what to do with and we need to even the odds

Listen to NPR’s No Compromises. It explains a lot about why the NRA is out, it needs the Russian money because the extremist gun owners were already abandoning them.
-
Absolutely the opposite. Better organizations have risen to prominence and secured legal victories for gun rights like Bruen.

The unfortunate thing is that the result will just be more money for the NRA.

Click saver TLDR: State Supreme Court Judge Joel Cohen will have the final say over monetary damages and remedies. That decision could happen in July.
-
I really hope the NRA as it is today collapses due to their being a intermediary for Russian bribe money, and a new sporting organization thats more in line with the NRA Pre-Revolt in Cincinnati rises up.
When it was about teaching safe handling, responsibility, marksmanship competitions and environmentalism and had nothing to do with politics, scare mongering, or being a mouth piece for foreign powers.

Thoughts and prayers.

To clarify the NRA (the organization) isn't being ruled against here LaPierre and other former higher ups were found to have abused their position to defraud the organization for things like private flights. The organization is the victim of LaPierre et al and are entitled to be repaid what they had stolen from them.
And when I say the organization I'm referring to all of its members, not just the staff.

Putin didn't mind him taking a little for himself, what's the big deal
