This is a long article (excerpts from a book apparently) but it’s interesting.

Basically the author, a man with Jewish heritage, makes a fake persona and joins far-right groups. He’s assisted by the group Hope Not Hate.

What do you think of the far-right? One of the interesting points that is made in the article a few times is that some far-right adherents, met by the author, seem to want friendship more than anything else. At least that’s the author’s view.

    These wealthy racists are extremely misguided. They think in a post-capitalist society, shock collars will keep security detail loyal to them. Perhaps they’ve come around to think feeding them well, too. What they aren’t counting these men have learned to overcome physical and emotional pain and deprivation. They have possibly learned to master their emotions, but I’m betting beneath the surface, something is seething that doesn’t bode well for the wealthy racists.
