4/ These posts are not a violation of Twitter's terms of service, which only prohibits the sharing of "private" information. According to Twitter's ToS, posting legal names and places of employment are allowed.pic.twitter.com/jgvCxy7yox
5/ However, after Joe Rogan's interview with @jack and @vijaya, which ended with them promising to look into anti-fascist accounts, Enrique Tarrio was emboldened to broaden his campaign. https://twitter.com/Kherman112/status/1103445774753361921 …
6/ With that, Tarrio told the group of 200, "With the developments today on the Joe Rogan podcast, it is important that you tweet @TwitterSupport on account that we know are antifa.... Don't stop tweeting @ them. Keep the fucking pressure up."pic.twitter.com/lOa4Bisxmm
7/ And lo and behold, I caught 12-hour suspension last Friday for a tweet that didn't actually violate Twitter's Terms of Service. Unless, of course, it's against the ToS to expose a neo-Nazi who plastered Boston's Holocaust Museum with antisemitic propaganda.pic.twitter.com/0edJEDGM0g
8/ That only emboldened Tarrio more, to encourage the reporting of threads that were exposing not only Proud Boys, but also members of open white nationalist groups. In the screenshot below, Tarrio encourages reporting a tweet exposing a member of Identity Evropa.pic.twitter.com/o6ggeC8fMb
9/ And in this screenshot, Tarrio tells the Proud Boys to report me for "targeted harassment." My crime? Exposing a member of The Base, a neo-Nazi organization planning bombings and mass shootings in the hopes of creating a pure white ethnostate.pic.twitter.com/hFX2naU758
10/ And in these two screenshots, Tarrio tells the group to defend members of Identity Evropa, a white nationalist organization, and the Shieldwall Network, an openly neo-Nazi organization.pic.twitter.com/f8rElwuZpI
11/ On Sunday night, Tarrio announced "Operation: Righteous Deporation." The plan? Have the Proud Boys collect the names of undocumented immigrants, and every time the media reports critically on the Proud Boys, or when a Proud Boy gets doxxed, they call ICE on someone.pic.twitter.com/VUo7Rdc01w
12/ The Proud Boys are planning to hold hostage the lives of undocumented immigrants in order to threaten the media into giving them sweetheart coverage, and to coerce anti-fascists into ceasing their opposition to the Proud Boys' violent nationalism.
13/ The Proud Boys are planning to act as paramilitary agents for the state. This has clear analogs in 20th-century fascism. The Sturmabteilung (commonly known as "Brownshirts") and the MVSN ("Blackshirts") served as paramilitary forces for Hilter and Mussolini, respectively.
14/ Not only have the Proud Boys exposed themselves as not giving a fuck about the "free speech absolutism" they claim to defend-- they're quite fine with censorship happening to leftists-- but also as a vigilante gang threatening undocumented immigrants and blaming the media.
15/ As shown by this chat, the Proud Boys don't defend freedom of expression, but they do defend white nationalists like Identity Evropa, and open neo-Nazis like The Base and the Shieldwall Network. And not only that, but they've declared war on the media and immigrants.
16/ Going forward, there can be can be no waffling on what the Proud Boys actually are, and it's not a beer-drinking fraternity. They are a 21st-century fascist movement that has become a paramilitary operation.
17/ And we don't make deals with people who take hostages. Because if the Proud Boys take power, they'll attack immigrants anyway. That's what fascists do. And that's exactly why, as anti-fascists, we oppose them.
18/ So if you've ever wondered what you would do when Hitler's Brownshirts were attacking "undesireables," you're doing it now.
That's exactly what the Proud Boys are doing.
They're the new Brownshirts.
This is 21st-century fascism.
And you need to pick a side.
19/ Annnnnnddddd........ Enrique Tarrio just caught the banhammer.
