Later, he boasted of spending the next year “travelling around from major city to major city, just setting up these cells”

Iirc a few mass shooter manifestos also claim this sort of behaviour. So without more facts backing this up it might just be fight club cosplaying. (And yes setting up these kinds of paramilitary fight clubs is very fascist (and quite cringe and weird with the hitting each other, just go to a metal/punk mosh pit))

Yeah im trying to point how bog standard mass shooter neo-nazi this stuff is. Including claiming the far right things they say are not far right, 'normies' etc. next steps are either murder or being revealed as into 'lolis'.

(E: Btw don't get me wrong, these people are still dangerous (esp as one of their goals is always stochastic terrorism), even if they follow tired old patterns).

Right? They're taking piles of cash and using it to reinvent the wheel, except dumber.

This seems to be a common pattern with cranks of all kinds, doesn't it? They just can't be bothered to learn any history, even their own.

Hey, we don't want them either!

We already got them. The only hope for them is that they get it out of their system and realize racism sucks by being exposed to people who arent as cringrey xenophobes as they are.
