Essentially, they were just shitposters on 4chan joking about a civil war, now it's become less joke-y. Are they carrying real guns or airsoft guns? Are they joking or do they want a civil war to happen? Are they racists for Trump or people who wants cops to be upheld to their ideals?
I wouldn't be surprised if boogaloo gains more prominence, much like flat earthers, and eventually co-opted by more shitbags without any irony. So, I made this thread.
