Facebook on Tuesday banned hundreds of accounts, groups and pages that it said were linked to the Boogaloo movement, a loosely organized extremist collective whose members have occasionally shown up armed to racial justice and anti-quarantine protests around the country.

The banned content includes a core set of 220 Facebook accounts, 95 accounts on Facebook-owned Instagram and dozens of pages and groups that Facebook, in a blog post, said posed a "credible threat" to public safety. Facebook said the accounts were "actively promoting violence against civilians, law enforcement, and government officials and institutions."

This bugaloo crap has the glow of FBI etc..

Yep, or an organization specially created by the left just so they will have something to point to.

I recall having read that they are small groups of right-wing extremists that go by various names. The term “Boogaloo” is the term they use for the race war they hope to incite. But I could be stupid.

It’s funny how every four years, there’s some scary group dug up by the media that we’re supposed to be afraid of, but never heard about until then...

Waiting for Antifa accounts to be banned.

Ummmm...they just were!

If you wanted to create a certain environment you could
create fake accounts to assert the desired environment.
Banning of fake accounts are a zero sum gain.

Boogaloo?! Search "Electric Boogaloo". Early popping...Soul Train : Electric Boogaloo Dancers (1980)

You've had the wool pulled over your eyes with this whole charade.
In the vernacular...You got played!

[Pelham]

The same crowd bit on that Pepe the Green Frog meme. Fun times.

[lerker]

FBI is the left.. lol

Note the Moon Walk at this time stamp 3 years before MJ did it.

[a fool in paradise]

Sounds like a conspiracy theory.

Boogaloo is a bugaboo.

[ClayinVA]

Shut down all of the Boogaloo memes but leave the BLM and Antifa accounts up that coordinate all of the peaceful protests like the other night in Provo. The City of Richmond Virginia, declared a state of emergency over nightly protests at Lee Park.

Great video. If you want to join the in-crowd and be out of sight, you need to learn to dance the Boogaloo, the Shingaling and the Afro Twist.

Barr declared this movement to be extremist, like the antifa and the anarchists. Just recently. In some statement.

In 1984, there was an obscure movie "Breakin' II: Electric Boogaloo". Those of us who think there is a 2nd Civil War in progress were calling it "the boogaloo" as in "Civil War II: Electric Boogaloo", a reference to the movie title. That was last year.

Now? I think the CIA/FBI has ginned up a fake right-wing movement they call "The Boogaloo Boys". There may be some real people in it, but I think it must be shot though with FedGov finks. I wouldn't get within 100 miles of it.

4Chan came up with a patch. Note the unit name on the bottom.

[backwoods-engineer]

Personally, I think it’s a fake FBI/CIA front meant to entrap patriots. I wouldn’t get within 100 miles of it.

[backwoods-engineer]

That has nothing to do with this.

[backwoods-engineer]

Oh, yeah, they're coming for us.

I wouldn't go to a Threeper or OathKeeper event now-- it's certain to be shot through with FBI/CIA finks. Wouldn't get within 100 miles of one.

[backwoods-engineer]

Strike two.
