[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posobiec has been officially deemed an "extremist" by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Interesting thread that briefly combs through his history of nobody to the mainstreaming of extremism:

What’s interesting about all these charlatans (I get that they’re dangerous, but they’re still charlatans) is that they just seem to arise from nowhere and it seems like Posobiec did too. Who lifts these people up and makes them into figureheads? I read the text thread but I can’t read the links within.[/quote]

Like Boebert and MTG, Posobiec is a failed entertainer who wanted to be in Hollywood:

[quote]
By his own account, he grew up in the Philadelphia suburb of Norristown, Pennsylvania, where he thought of himself as a future entertainer. He described his desire to find a career in show business in the introduction to his 2017 book Citizens for Trump: The Inside Story of the People’s Movement To Take Back America, writing:

[i]Working in politics is not something that I ever sought out to do. … I always wanted to be a filmmaker, or a writer, or an actor. I really enjoy being creative, I enjoy performing – especially live – and I really enjoy being able to entertain people and share that love of performance with them. I did my stand-up comedy act at age 8, in front of my entire grade school. I tried my hand at it some more, when I got older, at clubs in Philadelphia. A lot of fun!”
[/i]
In an early self-produced podcast, Posobiec described auditioning for roles in musical theater on Broadway. He appeared briefly in the 2008 Kung Fu film Forbidden Kingdom, playing the role of a thug. Although footage of Posobiec playing music surfaces online from time to time, he put most of his performance energy after 2016 into hard-right politics, spinning fabricated, propagandistic stories, giving direct-to-camera speeches over Twitter’s Periscope livestreaming app and pulling attention-seeking stunts on social media. For example, in June 2017, Posobiec joined anti-Muslim bigot Laura Loomer in disrupting a production of Julius Caesar in New York’s Central Park, shouting, “You are all Goebbels!” at the audience members.[/quote]

It's a really fascinating read. Someone is definitely going out and recruiting these clowns based on the failed social media profiles.
