I don't think I understand any of what's being said here. Don't know the term, don't know the references being made in the post.

Yeah OP doesn't explain. Have a look here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groypers

TL:DR turbo racists who don't find Trump or Kirk racist enough.

In late 2022 and early 2023, the Groyper movement shifted away from its longtime position of supporting Trump and instead began promoting Kanye West's presidential campaign.

How does this ...even fit

Nick Fuentes and Kanye became friends at some point. I wish I was kidding.

As always with fascism, the blatant contradictions are a feature not a bug.

""""friends""""

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 11 hours ago

That totally makes sense. A black man and an ulra-racist anti-black became friends

[–] RedAggroBest@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago

Kayne West is a crazy Nazi, didn't you know? It's not like being black would make him immune to fascism.

I reckon they're just a bunch of turbo-charged trollers that only say stuff to get a rise out of people. Consistency isn't important to them.

[–] zanyllama52@infosec.pub 9 points 12 hours ago

Thanks for the context. Also, wtf

Thanks for this! I noticed when I share in detail, there's still commenters (who get highly upvoted) that argue with what I discovered. Especially when it's so ridiculously cartoonish like whatever this Groyper movement is.

So I elected to share it and go, "Dog, this info is wild y'all gotta do your own research because wtf."

Fortunately for this one, Wikipedia has a lot of good detail about them. And in the future, I'll remember to share those links if I spot them and they're highly credible.

Wth, I went to urban dictionary for the explanation, and there was a wikipedia page about it all along?!
