Examples

“Nick Fuentes, an attendee of the Unite the Right demonstration in Charlottesville and host of the podcast America First, is also one of the leaders of the Groypers, or the Groyper Army, a White nationalist group named after the meme of Pepe the Frog, which was co-opted in 2016 as an antisemitic symbol.”

“Watch any event with a prominent conservative speaker these days, and you’ll find Groyper or Groyper-adjacent young men asking the questions that end up going viral on social media. […] It’s fun for Groypers in 2025 to gush about Newsom’s beautiful white family and hint that they’re going to jump ship at the prospect of an Indian First Lady.”

“The conservative writer Rod Dreher, a close friend of [JD] Vance, warned, “I am told by someone in a position to know that something like 30 to 40 percent of D.C. G.O.P. staffers under the age of 30 are Groypers.””

““If [JD] Vance condemns the Groypers, we are deploying to Iowa,” Mr. Fuentes said. “I swear I’m going to move to Iowa and New Hampshire and Nevada and South Carolina and one primary after the next.””

“Slating Trump to speak at [Madison Square Garden]^([sic]), putting ‘poisoning the blood’ in his speeches, setting up Odal runes at CPAC, etc. In a few years, one of those groypers [slang for white supremacists]^([sic]) might even quietly bring me back in, with a stern warning for me to ‘be more careful next time’.””

“You look at the groypers, you look at Nick Fuentes, you look at people who are by any measure white supremacists and people we would have called the kooky Nazi right, with their Pepe the Frog memes — they all felt very ill at home in Mitt Romney’s Republican Party. […] For a lot of these groypers — Nick Fuentes is one example, but there are a lot of people on the young right who feel this way to varying degrees and with varying levels of Holocaust revisionism — a definition of Americanism is more about your history here, your ethnonationalism, your connection to an Anglo-Protestant culture.”

“Once again we’re debating the programming choices of prominent podcasters: In March the instigating event was Joe Rogan giving a platform to Ian Carroll, a propagator of perfervid critiques of Israel; this time it’s Tucker Carlson giving a platform to Nick Fuentes, the Hitler-admiring leader of the so-called groyper right.”
