Some of y'all may have seen in the news that Trump has his very own Brownshirts now, a podcast-assembled group of MRAs called "Proud Boys" (no-poo poo named after a song from Aladdin) that make Bronies look tough. They've gotten in a couple scuffles with Anti-Fa types and fared poorly even in combat again the "snowflakes" they despise.

Apropos of that, let's flash back to a great article from 2007: Today's Neo-Nazis Have No Respect For Tradition

Get bashed, platonist!

Proud Boys? Sounds like if you asked a Mormon to come up with a name for a street gang.

EDIT: They sound like they're from the bad part of Candyland.

"Proud Boys" is a fantastic idea.

- no jerking off
- youre a boy and youre proud! imagine when you turned 12 years old and just biked through the world and had a rat-tail and a Raiders cap. i think thats the feeling they wanna capture permanently

So far the Proud Boys are mostly famous for having one member get arrested for punching a DNAinfo reporter at NYU, and accidentally pepper-spraying their own people at Berkeley.

The Onion article is making fun of skinheads as a disgrace to Nazism, but the likes of Combat 18 and the Hammerskins would weep at the post-frat dweebs repping the right now.

Their initiation ceremony involves punching a recruit until he's able to say the names of five breakfast cereals. I'm not making that up.

What? You can't just leave it at that. What if they can already name five breakfast cereals? Do they still get punched? If they can't name five cereals, how does punching make them remember? If you never come up with five, do you just get your god drat head bashed in?

Pretty much. They're trying to present White Masculine Supremacy in a clean cut, appealing way. Kind of like that one dude who got punched during the Trump rally and Milo before he got outed as a Pedo.

Breakfast Cereals? You have actual gangs beating new recruits to the point of brain trauma and these guys think naming cereals elevates this to the same intensity?

I mean there's not much more to it than that, Chuck Berry filmed women peeing.

I seem to remember a story about him peeing on a woman and then when she went in for a kiss saying something like "get away, you smell like piss."
