(1,000 posts)They actually did use a variation of boy scouts to build that sense of social connection and community for "right thinking," pretty much the way the internet is used now to encourage a variation of "Brownshirts." No mosquitos, no sweating, lotsa beer. ("Before The Deluge" by Otto Friedrich-the social political environment post WWI pre WWII, the fall of the Weimar Republic and the rise of Hitler concerning the "hiking and camping." One of the best books I have ever read.)

Is the DSM ever going going to have condition they describe as DSS - Delusional Supremacist Syndrome? It seems like it would cover a lot of groups; these guys, the Proud Boys, the KKK, the Sovereign Citizens ...
