Because fighting fascism requires more than silence.
Fascist gangs are grooming American kids—and most parents don’t even know it’s happening.On this episode of On Offense, I joined Reed Galen of Homefront to talk about the coordinated grooming of American boys by fascist gangs like Patriot Front. This conversation builds on my July 4 piece, The U-Haul Nazis Are Grooming Kids, and goes deeper into how these groups operate—and how to stop them.
We cover:-How white supremacists exploit loneliness and isolation to recruit kids-Why social platforms are letting it happen-What the government and corporations aren’t doing-How veterans and community organizers can disrupt these pipelines-Concrete actions parents and educators can take today
This isn’t just commentary—it’s a warning, a strategy session, and a call to action. Listen in, and then share it with someone who needs to hear it.
