The Proud Boys are not White Supremacists
Today I was watching The Andrew Klavan Show on YouTube and he seriously stated The Proud Boys are a white supremacist group. From what I know of them, he’s dead wrong. With the 100 employees at the Daily Wire, I would think they could do a small bit of research before they regurgitate the left’s propaganda.
The Proud Boys were started in response to antifa. They provided volunteer security for Ann Coulter and others on the right when they would speak at colleges and other public events. They’re tough guys. They’re multi-racial. They’re patriots.
Recently in New York, a few of them were convicted of felonies for merely defending themselves against antifa. They were prosecuted using gang related statutes. If you remember the videos, it seemed obvious that they were defending themselves. New York seems to be the place where justice goes to die.
Calling them white supremacists though is as comical as the Dave Chappelle skit about Clayton Bigsby, the black white supremacist. It would be comical if the stakes weren’t so high. Sad really.
I’m only writing this post due to my great disappointment that some on the right will not give their due diligence to research before speaking on a topic. I thought we were better than that. So I’ll post where interested parties may read it to forewarn that we must fact check all sources so we may speak out and debate from a position as close to the truth as possible.
God bless

I always thought TPB were just security for Gavin. And did he ever need it. I watched the videos and the court that found them guilty need to watch the whole show again. From beginning to the end, TPB were defending Gavin and themselves from the mob. I think the only reason they were charged is that the police could see their features so they knew who they were. Sad day for freedom. I started to watch Klaven’s video. I got so angry I stopped it. I usually can agree with him, but this was just too far out there. It would be like condemning Candace Owens for the idiots hurling swear words, blowing whistles, and screaming into their blow horns at her and Charlie Kirk.
I know SABO is a Proud Boy, and he is Mexican.
A Mexican white supremacist? Interesting.
Thank you for writing this. I also was surprised and disappointed to hear Mr. Klavan – a man who is knowledgeable and often quite wise – describe the Proud Boys as a white supremacist group that foments violence in the same was as Antifa. He has apparently bought into the “narrative.” He needs do a deeper dive and research the origins of the Proud Boys, their role at speeches and protests – and into the demographics of the group.
Andrew Klavan is not a wise man, but he does talk a lot. And so, like the archetypal broken clock, he occasionally says something precise.
Andrew may have done the research if he went to Wikipedia and got the wrong 411 there. Here’s the link and it’s not good: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proud_Boys
And this is why we don’t use wikipedia. I scanned the references on the page and they’re all from lefty rags and sites. Even media matters. SMDH
I know and agree, not only that but anybody can “edit” anything on that site. So I’m sure the cockroaches have already “edited” more to their liking on others as well.
I recommend infogalactic.com which functions like Wikipedia but without the Progressive spin.
