    How… how do you know this? Like, did someone write an in-depth description of how these clubs work after infiltrating some or do you have first hand experience?

    Your take sounds legit but can we get more info?

      I am a blonde blue eyed man who loves martial arts. Many, many people I train with are pretty open in their racism around me as long as there’s only white people around. In larger groups they make no secret of their conspiracy beliefs. And they’re constantly going to defense camps, survival camps, masculinity camps.

      They follow and idolize both the US fascists like Trump, Desantis, JP. And their local versions who organise these kinds of camps (look up Dries Van langenhove).

      It’s not the blood and honour kind of Nazism, so perhaps not accurate for this article, but they genuinely believe he was right.
