      Even the doxing campaigns have been not very effective. They don’t hide, and they don’t seem to be impacted very much, unlike those distantly connected to Nazi groups.

      Gavin McInnes, however, did have connections to Unite the Right, and offered full support to the event which saw two terrorists marching side by side, only withdrawing that support when it became clear it would blow back.

      The most dangerous conclusion is that the Proud Boys are a creation of the GOP to set a narrative against the left. This could also be the most effective angle against them, because using them to expose the GOP would likely mean cutting off their support.

      Part of their strategy is to bring forward people of color, like Tiny. It makes the “you’re a white supremacist!” arguments fall flat. This is deliberate.

      And while non-white people can perpetuate white supremacy, they rely on these academic arguments failing to generate mass outrage.

      Internal Proud Boy chats have very little discussion by way of talk about race in the way that Nazi chats do. When you read neo-Nazi chats, they talk convoluted bullshit race theory for hours. Proud Boys don’t give a fuck, they just wanna beat the shit out of and trigger the libs

      The Proud Boys are white supremacist by action, but they have so far effectively dodged the associations by ideology that have been damaging to the Nazis. And the ease at which they’re dodging this surprises me.

      I don’t have a lot of great answers here but what is the most concerning is how close the PBs are to the police and to mainstream political bodies. That’s something the identitarian groups haven’t had quite as much.

      Back in early-2017, Eli Mosley was exposed as Elliot Kline. He got mad, and in the Vibrant Diversity chats, solicited others to harass his exposer—Proud Boy leader Gavin McInnes.

          I kinda get what you're saying about their ideology being amorphous and not explicitly white supremacist, but their slogans are all signaling white supremacy.

          People like me. I don't live in the US or Canada, but I have relatives who do. I'm also concerned because I've seen their ideologies spreading among people in my own country. We're a tiny island nation with different dynamics yet these ideologies are reaching us + catching on.

          And I hate to say this, but I find it is usually those with the least to fear who are the ones trying to promote the idea that we have little or nothing to fear. I can't pretend reality away. That's a privilege I don't have.

          The Proud Boys aren’t motivated by racial superiority; sure, they expect the perks of White Supremacy, but their REAL schtick is MALE SUPREMACY Their credo is ‘Western Chauvinism’, which means any ‘Alpha’ male can do whatever the fuck he wants, or he’ll beat you up. #GOPAngryMobpic.twitter.com/hXNbzqR587

          Yeah, I've always wondered what their deal is outside of "we are assholes who want an excuse to get in fights with people we don't like for *vague gesturing* reasons". It seems like that's kind of the core motive.

          I think you've severely under-estimated them. They know exactly what they're doing. Nazis don't hate them. They know their chats are watched. They know to appear oppose the proudboys and other similar "lite" groups. It gives the false impression that they are disconnected.

          The pb are a funnel for white supremacist ideology, as are all these other "right-wing" groups with ambiguous views. The alt-right didn't just grow by trolling, but by pretending to be skeptics. They allow "poc" in their ranks bc it attracts white people who haven't turned yet.
