    Subscriptions to their online groups, the War Room and Hustler’s University, appear to bring the brothers around $5m a month in membership fees, prosecutors say.

    This is sad. Horrible people spawning more horrible people.

      It is a problem that the left needs to find its own way of responding to. Right now there are a lot of young disillusioned boys who are being left behind by society. They latch onto these radical right wing ideals/grifters who tell them that they can make all their dreams real if they’ll buy our memberships and treat people this and that way. Our society is changing and we need some way to help those who are left behind or we will continue to see an increase in radicalized young men!

      Jesus, that’s so depressing. People just want to belong to something, but seeing them find a home somewhere like that makes me feel so sad.
