Generation identity were kind of ahead of their time and I don't mean that in a good way,

obviously, but they were very much, in my opinion, ahead of their time, kind of progenitors to

the alt-right in but in a much more

European way. I think now we're seeing with Rob Rondo's bullshit, like, he has definitely

copied a lot of what a generation identity started with. But they have kind of been left in the

past a little bit. I think a lot of people forget that this group started

a lot of this kind of trendy street fascism stuff. Maybe you can just take us back to the start

and explain what our generation identity is and where it came from. 100%. And I think that's

an important point. It does feel very much like this is part of history because the ideas that they were putting

down the tactics that they were using have kind of become part of the mainstream right, particularly

among younger activists.

So it's almost like this feels like a period in history,

but that's because we're just living in a version of the right that they had created.

So the, yeah, Generation Identitarian were,

were and are a far-right European movement,

extremist movements that were founded in France in the early 2000s.

They were very much inspired by the ideologies of the new right of France from the 1960s.
