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.

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.

Emily GVerified account @EmilyGorcenskiBack 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. He literally shares it for “harassment purposes.” [cw: slurs] https://discordleaks.unicornriot.ninja/discord/view/741340?q=#msg … pic.twitter.com/IBFnySmJc2Show this thread1 reply 34 retweets 207 likesShow this thread -

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.

and their fucking lawyer, the guy who sends cease and desist letters to people for calling them Nazis, is a Turner Diaries-reading Stormfront poster who got kicked from Twitter for threatening to lynch somebody.https://medium.com/@justinward/better-call-j-l-584074ea2968 …
