Glenn Reynolds, of Instapundit fame, recently penned a piece for the New York Post entitled "Elon Musk’s zeal for truth reveals the online frauds aiming to divide us." It was more on the story of how the home country for many X account were different than what the owners of those accounts claimed. But then I saw this bit: "Likewise the woke-right 'groyper' movement supposedly elevating white supremacist Nick Fuentes seems to be largely a foreign sham, ...."
But that is not what Rod Dreher recently penned in his article: "What I Saw And Heard In Washington." What he saw and heard is that the groyper movement is real:
It was an intense and busy long weekend for me in the capital city. I learned a hell of a lot about the new radicalism racing through the young Right there. What I’m going to say about it is to inform you. Nobody talked to me on the record. What I say is my impression of a number of conversations I had with people (conservatives) who are directly involved in this world. Every one of them is appalled by what’s happening (well, maybe not one of the guys, but he always plays his cards close to his vest), and all have serious doubts about the ability of the institutional Right to deal with it. It’s easier for me simply to do a mash-up of all the things I heard, rather than try to attribute them to people I can’t quote by name anyway. Remember, this is a diary, not a newspaper.
The claim that I first floated in this space last week, quoting a DC insider who said that in his estimation, “between 30 and 40 percent” of the Zoomers who work in official Republican Washington are fans of Nick Fuentes — that’s true. Was confirmed multiple times by Zoomers
WTH is a groyper?
ReplyDeleteAccording to Wikipedia, groypers are followers and fans of Nick Fuentes.
