On May 29, at 9:27 PM, two men in a white Ford Econoline-style van parked across the street from a federal building in Oakland, California, according to a criminal complaint filed by the Department of Justice.
These far right groups have been building for decades. We have a Militia here in my county now. They all use FB. My guess is some of them are used by Trump like those police at the DC protest with no identifying insignia on their tactical uniforms.
Maybe ol' Zuck gets protection from them. 🙄Or he is just plain scared.
I can tell ya they will find another Social Media platform if they by a miracle FB closes them down. They have emerged like the 17 year locusts but with a longer shelf life.
Their aim is like the Wholeness in The Postman movie with Costner . To rule by hate and muscle after polite society collapses or the apocalypse.
Great piece, as always, Judd. Not sure what this has to do with anything, but: After reading this I went to FB to see these Boogaloo groups for myself. When I searched groups for "Boogaloo" I was told there are none. When I dropped the last "o" and searched for "Boogalo" they all came up, even though all the groups had Boogaloo spelled properly.
Mark Zuckerburg belongs in prison. He is a terrorist. He doesn't care about anything but money. Want to promote hate, fine. Want to go against our community standards, fine. Zuckerburg needs to be removed from facebook and competent leadership needs to prevail. Enough of this "it's all free speech and we don't want to censor anyone or anything" there's a difference between free speech and hate speech and inciting violence. Zuck doesn't think so.
These scared, gangland wanna be racist A-holes can't take our Aloha shirts!
There may be some debate in Hawaii about Aloha shirts and cultural appropriation, but I take the lead from the owners of Hawaiian Force http://hawaiianforce.com/about/
Jim Jordan is an ass. FB is a bunch of liars, and tangentially, how stupid are these boogaloos? Wouldn't you imagine, Judd, that the FBI, et al "soup bois" are following and infiltrating these groups through facebook and in some ways, it serves to the advantage of law enforcement for them to be out in the open? I cannot imagine that this white supremacist cauldron are not being monitored closely.
Why not ask the FBI what they think of the proliferation of hate groups on FB? Did you talk to SPLC?
Thank you for continuing to try and hold Facebook accountable. It seems to me the only way to stop people renaming banned "boog" related sites and relaunching them on FB is to ban the people who actually create them. But of course they can just drum up a fake identity with a new throw away cell phone number. It's like trying to stop a pack of rats :(
The further to the right you are, the more FB seems willing to indulge, if not outright support, your "cause". It's both disheartening and infuriating.
Facebook will not allow sharing of my health blog, www.everythinghealth.net. There is no reason why and Attempts to share are blocked with a message that says it is objectionable. Many of my readers have submitted requests for review that just go to a blank hole. My posts are well researched, backed by science, I take no advertising and they are non-political. Somehow Facebook has blocked me. Yet they allow violent racist groups and frank lies in the name of freedom. I don’t get it.
More extraordinary investigation and journalism by Judd. Superb work!
Agreed! By far the best investment I made with my news funds.
This is some scary stuff. We're already dealing with a deadly pandemic and economic downturn. We don't need armed conflict on top of it.
Also, Jim Jordan is a pea-brained bully and is to be detested alongside his GOP brethren such as Matt Gaetz and Ted Cruz.
Zuckerwanker only cares about money and he knows mass terror and #Mangowanker antics are making him richer. #TrumpMassMurderer

Boogaloo search worked for me? Unfortunately! Ugh.
