Online, there have been lots of discussions about how to do this. Far-right groups have a large cross-section of both anti-government and white supremacist memberships, supporting a black-led and pro-black-rights movement seems a bit counterintuitive. 2/? https://www.bellingcat.com/news/2020/05/27/the-boogaloo-movement-is-not-what-you-think/">https://www.bellingcat.com/news/2020...
The flag image is one example of this. Boogaloo aka big igloo aka big luau is the term used to indicate a tipping point where the government may fall. In this image, they are tying the current BLM movements to classic white supremacist/anti-gov (the Weavers-Ruby Ridge) 3/?
Solidarity against the police is the thread tying the groups together, but their motivations are VERY different. What it shows is these groups ability to adapt & take advantage of any opening to further the cause. Stay tuned, because these protests are only beginning to shift 4/?
International actors are also taking advantage - any opening is fair game to shift the narrative to advance extreme ideologies 5/? https://twitter.com/marcowenjones/status/1266984451847880704">https://twitter.com/marcowenj...
It& #39;s important to identify these actors & understand how they will use uncertainty to shift to their advantage. For the far-right, look out for igloos and Hawaiian print, and watch how the conversation evolves. 6/end
