I don't know who started this, but groypers are lazy sacks of pasty bullshit and not a political radicalization group, they're 4-channers too lazy to have the same level of conviction and principles as actual nazis. Okay so they hated Kirk, so did a lot of people.
I remember some self-described groypers going to that Charlottesville "unite the right" nazi rally and they were literally fat white kids who started crying when actual violence broke out.
I don't like giving attention whores the attention they desperately want and can't fathom why so many people are attaching to this stunt.
All of them?
That seems like something that you cannot possibly know.
Anecdotally, you saw some “fat white kids” crying, that’s not evidence of anybody’s behavior but their own.
I agree that we don’t know if he is a groyper, but implying that the group isn’t capable of containing of containing violent individuals is a very naive viewpoint.
Sure, it's possible, but it's absurd to pick one group out of everyone online who could also fit that bill and start spreading it online, especially when said group is literally a group of trolls.
People really, really want to blame/credit some group because it's more material, more content, more "something happening" and it's dumb because there's no evidence released, no manifesto, nothing reliable and there is a TIDAL WAVE of bullshit being circulated right now. Best to be quiet and wait and read, even then we'll never know everything.
There is way too much money on the side of spreading disinformation to know much of what is true. The Groyper angle is possible, but the evidence is thin at best. It doesn’t take much for people to ignore the scarcity of evidence if the story sounds better to them.
I just meant that online groups contains all kinds of people, and there is no reason to believe that that particular group is free of radical or violent individuals.
