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.

Powerful piece. Incredibly sad that most of the “foot soldiers” of these organisations seem to be socially awkward and craving friendship. Terrible that they are finding friendship in these organisations. If only the government provided them with a better more fulfilling outlook that might have been avoided.
It goes to show that the reason these groups exist is that a small minority of wealthy racists are taking advantage of fragile minds.
men will do anything to avoid therapy
the therapists that wouldn’t hesitate to mouth off about everything you tell them to the authorities and have you involuntarily held? it’s almost like they aren’t your friend
eh? that’s either because they are unethical and breaking their code or you are doing some incredibly shady shit and they are obliged to inform authorities to avoid you hurting someone.
they do this if you so much as say something they consider by whatever metric to be “harmful to yourself” too, nobody wants to be involuntarily held so who on earth is going to be honest to them?
