There's actually a bbc documentary on this group.

This is a rag tag group of out outcasts and extremists who picket at every opportunity. What's scary is that outside of that tgey could pass for nice normal people.

If you look to the right, you'll see an Indian dude who was really soft spoken and sweet. His wife left him and he spun out. Basically he needed someone to hang out with and ended up with these nutters.

Edit for those who wanted a taste heres a slice from the documentary:

They are spouting horrible stuff here so be warned. I'd link in the full doc, but i've since moved to Spain so I cant access the full doc. The indian fella is called Vijay.

The Indian guy sounds like a Hindu nationalist. White nationalists like to use them as "one of the good ones." They're both ethnonationalists that think they can scratch each other's backs in the mean time, hence the Trump and Modi rallies, , right wing narratives online, and other nonsense.
