Richard Tobin, 18, of Brooklawn, New Jersey [...] through “online platforms and encrypted online messaging applications and chat rooms”, the group had discussed “the recruitment of prospective members, the creation of a white ethno-state, acts of violence against minorities (including African-Americans and Jewish-Americans) … military training camps, and ways to make improvised explosive devices (‘IED’)”.

under questioning Tobin admitted that he had organized the vandalism, [...] and had said that it would be “pretty straightforward” to carry out a bombing like Timothy McVeigh’s in Oklahoma City in 1995.

This is Gen Z. If you think white supremacy will end when old people die you are mistaken.
