Die Proud Boys (deutsch etwa: "Stolze Jungs") sind eine rechtsextreme[1][2][3][4], faschistische[5], rein männliche Organisation, die Widerstand gegen die Staatsgewalt propagiert.[6][7][8][9] Die Organisation ist in den USA beheimatet und darüber hinaus in Australien, Kanada und Großbritannien präsent.[10][11]
Mitglieder der Gruppe glauben, dass Männer - insbesondere weiße Männer - in der westlichen Kultur bedroht sind. Sie hängen der Verschwörungstheorie an, von Auslöschung bedroht zu sein.[12][13][14]

In a speech, he described a clash with Antifa outside a talk he gave at NYU last year: "My guys are left to fight. And here's the crucial part: We do. And we beat the crap out of them." He related what a Proud Boy who got arrested told him afterward: "It was really, really fun." According to McInnes: "Violence doesn't feel good. Justified violence feels great. And fighting solves everything."“
