Well, it looks like these "white supremacist" groups are becoming much more inclusive. /s
While perusing Reddit posts by controversial , I came across a thread with a comment suggesting the media may try to scrub information about Enrique such as his Wikipedia.
Would be a shame if we captured it to an immutable blockchain..
Enrique Tarrio
Enrique Tarrio is an American
businessman and chairman of the far-
right, neo-fascist organization Proud
Boys.
[4][5][6] In 2020, he was a candidate in
the Republican primary election for
Florida's 27th congressional district, but
withdrew in August after failing to raise
funds.[2][3][7] Tarrio is the Florida state
director of the grassroots organization
Latinos for Trump.[8][9]
Early life
Tarrio grew up in Little Havana, a
neighborhood in Miami, Florida.
[10]Legal history
In 2004 when he was 20 years old, Tarrio
was convicted of theft. He was sentenced
to three years of probation, community
service, and ordered to pay restitution.[1] In
2013, Tarrio was sentenced to 30 months
(of which he spent 16) in federal prison for
rebranding and reselling stolen medical
devices.[11][12]
Career
In 2017, Tarrio attended the Unite the Right
rally in Charlottesville, Virginia,[13] to
protest the removal of Confederate
statues.
[14] Tarrio became a fourth-degree
member of the Proud Boys, a distinction
reserved for those who get into a physical
altercation, after punching a purported
member of antifa in the face in June
2018.[15] He became chairman of the
Proud Boys on November 29, 2018,
succeeding Jason Lee Van Dyke, who held
the position for two days, and Van Dyke's
predecessor Gavin McInnes.
[16][17]
Political Viewz
In regards to his views on extremist
groups and ideologies, Tarrio has been
quoted as saying, "I denounce white
supremacy. I denounce anti-Semitism. I
denounce racism. I denounce fascism. I
denounce communism and any other -ism
that is prejudice towards people because
of their race, religion, culture, tone of
skin."
[18] In regards to his own ethnicity, he
has said, "I'm pretty brown, I'm Cuban.
There's nothing white supremacist about
me."
[13]
Tarrio is a close friend of Roger Stone.
[9]
After Stone was arrested in January 2019,
Tarrio appeared outside the courtroom in a
shirt emblazoned with the message "Roger
Stone did nothing wrong.[19]
According to his campaign's responses to
a Ballotpedia survey done in 2019, Tarrio
listed criminal justice reform, protection of
the Second Amendment, countering
domestic terrorism, ending the war on
drugs, free speech on digital platforms,
and immigration reform among some of
his priorities.[2]
In 2018, Twitter removed Tarrio's account,
amongst others related to the Proud Boys,
citing how platform policy prohibited
accounts related to violent extremist
groups. The following year, another
account created by Tarrio to evade the
suspension was detected and removed
from the platform by Twitter.
[20]
And they just removed him again!
