"The religious right is the American Taliban."

Yup.

Western far-right groups claim Taliban victory as their own

> Proud Boys are no different than Al Qaeda

That reminds me of a scene in "The Great Escape" where the camp guard comments he was a boy scout until Hitler abolished it and made him part of " Hitler Youth"...

Many Germans thought "This is a wholesome organization teaching kids 'correct' values."

Later a lot of them thought the SS was weeding out their version of political scapegoats.

You don't see the Proud Boy resemblance to the Brown Shirts? I think to most people its damn obvious.

That's an interesting allegation, given that it's been admitted in court that 50 out of 55 Proud Boys at the Capitol on Jan 6 were Feds.

Ten-Q-tsu?
