Trying to figure out if a regular winger, is supportive?


A google on them..


The Proud Boys is a far-right neo-fascist organization that admits only men as members and promotes and engages in political violence. It is based in the United States and has a presence in Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The group was started as a joke in the far-right Taki's Magazine in 2016 by Vice Media co-founder and former commentator Gavin McInnes, taking its name from the song "Proud of Your Boy" from the Disney film Aladdin. Proud Boys emerged as part of the alt-right, but in early 2017, McInnes began distancing himself from the alt-right, saying the alt-right's focus is race while his focus is what he defines as "Western values". This re-branding effort intensified after the Unite the Right Rally.
