When nazis organize as though borders don't actually matter:

Members of Canada's biggest white nationalist group trained this spring with U.S. counterparts south of the border and met with the founder of a global movement of fascist fight clubs, a CBC visual investigation has found.

One expert called it a "very significant" signal of closer co-ordination between white supremacist groups on both sides of the border.

A Telegram post with blurred faces shows Second Sons Canada members posing with an individual CBC identified as Robert Rundo, an American neo-Nazi who founded the "active club" movement. Other posts show them training and meeting with active club groups in Texas and South Carolina in late March.

"It's very significant that we're seeing Canadians travel across the border," said Steven Rai, senior research manager at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, a U.K.-based think-tank dedicated to studying authoritarianism, hate and extremism.

Tracking Canada’s fascist fight clubs

CBC’s visual investigations team reveals where some of Canada’s white nationalist 'active clubs' gather to prepare for violence.

Extensive report on the "uniquely Canadian" white nationalist Diagolon network and its newer, elite organization Second Sons of Canada.

===

Beginning as a collective of like-minded far-right podcasters and content creators, the fandom around these figures has grown into a community driven by conspiracy theory, with participants across the country. Identified as ideologically motivated violent extremists by Canadian law enforcement and intelligence agencies, Diagolon is one of the largest and most active white nationalist networks in Canada.

Unlike more traditional models of far-right organizations, there is no formal method of joining Diagolon—no official membership or vetting process. This means that the audience for Diagolon’s content is diverse among age and geography. Not every Diagolon supporter espouses racism, antisemitism or calls for violence against immigrants. However, the recent content from many members of the community has become so bellicose in its racism and ultra-
nationalism that to consume Diagolon material is to undeniably consume militant white nationalist material.

“War is coming, act accordingly,” MacKenzie wrote on the application Telegram.

A close look at a Canadian neo-Nazi, highlighting the international network he's a connected to.

From the article:

Vriend made a name for himself within Diagolon creating memes, viral fake headlines, and eventually hosting an after-show to Diagolon concept creator Jeremy MacKenzie. When moving across the country, Vriend chose to sell most of his personal belongings and drive, during which he met and connected with various local pockets of the community.

Holocaust denial, racist statements about Arab and Muslim people, an inevitable violent uprising, and conspiracy theories around Jewish plots of global control have been typical within Diagolon for years. The more recent shift towards outright white supremacy has seen Vriend making appearances as a guest on other programs linked to international neo-Nazi organizations.
