      They are an American far-right group that beat an initiate until they can name 5 cereal brands for their initiation ritual, can’t masturbate more than once every 30 days, and are named after a deleted song from Disney’s Aladdin movie which is also their club song, and are against “feminization” of American men.

      When asked in a 2020 debate if Trump would publicly condem them he told them to “Stand down and stand by.”

      I have not made up any of those facts.

        I…

        (According to wikipedia: yes, this checks out.)

        The Proud Boys, an American far-right neo-fascist group, derived their name from the song.

        This is definitely the weirdest fucking timeline.

          I told you, I did not make any of that up. They’re a bunch of weird little guys.
