Also, the term far-right term "boogaloo"-- which refers to an anti-government uprising and subsequent race war-- was stolen from an all-Black dance crew, the Electric Boogaloos, of Fresno, CA.

The dance is referenced by James Brown's 1968 "Say It Loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud." https://twitter.com/AntiFashGordon/status/1262123574590148609
Basically, the dance became popular in the 1960s, was used by the crew, and from there, became the subheading of 1980s cult classic "Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo."

From there, a Reddit poster referred to "Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo," and was picked up by the far-right.
If you want to take an overarching point from this, it's that fascists have never cared about history, only their own mythology.

History-- to them-- is whatever they say it is.

They don't care about truth, which is why we don't debate. We deplatform.
