"In the US, there are at least 46 active clubs across 34 states, a 2023 report from the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) said." 

“…These so-called “Active Clubs” are now recruiting across the United States, according to Alexander Ritzmann, a Berlin-based senior adviser who co-authored the report “Hiding in Plain Sight–The Transnational Right-Wing Extremist Active Club Network,” which was released last month and highlighted in Rolling Stone. The clubs advertise as sporting groups designated for white-only men, but their real objective, Ritzmann tells The New Abnormal, “is to essentially train a white supremacist militia.” 

"At least 46 so-called 'active clubs' – which publicly promote 'brotherhood' and training in combat sports and fitness while covertly advancing fascist and neo-Nazi agendas and preparing for large-scale violence – have sprouted in 34 states between 2020 and 2023, according to the report from the Counter Extremism Project."

"Researchers at the Counter Extremism Project, an international nonprofit policy organization, said the National Socialist Movement (NSM) is one of the organizers of the day that has been promoted through social media platforms."

"The Counter Extremism Project (CEP) said that it based on its monitoring of the Telegram instant messaging service, 'the participants are identified as the National Socialist Movement, two regional active club chapters in Iowa and California, and a small New York-based group.'"

"An analysis of social media activity by the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) found that the call to action stemmed from accounts associated with the National Socialist Movement, and three regional extremist groups based in Iowa, New York, and California."

"On Thursday, researchers for the Counter Extremism Project found that several neo-Nazi groups had coordinated the 'Day of Hate' on the messaging platform Telegram. 

On the app, the National Socialist Movement, a prominent neo-Nazi group based mainly in Iowa and California, encouraged other white supremacist groups to 'send photos and videos of antisemitic rallies,' the project said."
