I see someone has added the Proud Boys article to the neo-fascist series. For what it's worth, I think this is wrong. I don't really care if Wikipedia slanders a despicable group like the Proud Boys, but I think it is a dangerous misunderstanding. The Proud Boys are striving for something like the Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–1990). Like Augusto Pinochet's government, you can certainly find lots of references calling it "neo-fascist". Determining if those references are correct, or if this is really something different, is more difficult to determine. I think Wikipedia gets the Military dictatorship of Chile (1973–1990) article right by not including it in the neo-fascist series. Consider since 2018, the Proud Boys have been led by Enrique Tarrio, an Afro-Cuban. Under the leadership of a black man the Proud Boys vastly increased membership, received Donald Trump's “Proud Boys, stand back and stand by” endorsement during the 2020 presidential debates, and led the January 6 United States Capitol attack. It doesn’t really fit with traditional white-supremacist neo-fascism. Gouncbeatduke (talk) 15:47, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
