Proud Boys es Verbotten?

What happened to the Proud Boys post other than some reject deliberately flamed it to get it banned? Serious question.

Moved to Food / Drink board since they are simply a "drinking club".

Ok. That's funny.

My guess is the owners of the site are smart enough to not allow this place to be used as a recruiting ground for the proud boys.

But BLM endorsement is fair game? How does that make sense?

Dang, I missed it. I got back on and my posts were gone with the thread.

I don't know why fake news is scared of them. They seem like a fun bunch to me.

Chicken wouldn’t allow BLM to recruit here either.
It is one thing to offer a defense of a group or an idea. It’s quite another thing to recruit.

From a political standpoint, it makes sense to demonize any sort of organizing by right wing groups.

I can agree with that as long as it's true. That's why I'm asking.

IIRC solicitation of anything is not allowed. I mean, it's not a hard and fast rule because Chicken does allow go fund me solicitations for charitable reasons and does have a ticket exchange board set up but in general solicitations are not allowed, I believe.

seems counter productive,
you only bring attention to them and risk the Streisand effect
if they have bad ideas just debate that, no need to do ad hominems

I wish that were true, but try getting a group of men, much less white men, to organize for their interests and see how fast they get labelled white supremacist and then flee.

that actually makes a lot of sense. i did read the thread before it was nuked though and the political concepts were totally not what i was expecting
ETA: they anchored this thread fast. apparently you cannot mention certain phrases here any more.

every other group gets to do this
Black groups
Hispanic groups
Muslim groups
Jewish groups
Women's groups
Seems racist and sexist to not allow white men to organize.

Are you saying no one on here has spoken in support of BLM?

Stop moving the goal posts, please. Thanks.

It's not a lie if you believe it.
Actually, it is racist/bigotted to organize based on race, ethnicity, sex, etc. The question is whether or not it is wrong and the answer seems to be: Only if you're a white man.
But regardless, Proud Boys very clearly and loudly pushes a tolerance and inclusive message. It was started that way and it continues to be part of their message. Doesn't seem to matter.
