Yep. Natsocs/patsocs/la rouchites and more recently MAGA communist in the USA are western chauvanists cut from the same cloth. They're unopposed and unpersecuted 'pseudo-leftists' that are to the best I can tell propped up to divert revolutionary discontent away from capitalism and towards an ill-defined 'elite'. In so doing, making it easier for actually anti-capitalist projects and groups within the imperial core to be lumped in together and smeared as right-wing conspiracy.

I always think of them as American Nazbols, who are more of a thing in Eastern Europe. Fascists in the US tend to be straight-up nazis or klansmen. I guess it was inevitable a group would spring up. Reactionaries love stealing leftwing rhetoric and aesthetics to try luring people who are none the wiser.

Also wouldn't surprise me if they were trying to setup a Night of the Long Knives.

At this point he’s probably most famous for getting in an argument with Derek Guy (the menswear guy) on Twitter about how his suit wasn’t actually bespoke like he claimed in a photo of him wearing it and holding a gun.

It was actually made to measure which is different (cheaper, quicker). Derek revealed he’d actually called the tailor and confirmed it wasn’t bespoke in an Ozimandias “I did it 35min ago” moment.
