"Kyle Chapman, known to his fans on the alt-right as "Based Stickman" for beating a leftist protester with a wooden stick at an early March pro-Trump protest in Berkeley, California, wants people to think he's tough. In late April Chapman announced on Facebook his creation of a new group of right-wing street fighters, called the Fraternal Order of Alt-Knights (or FOAK), dedicated to "defense and confrontation" in the streets. You could almost hear the chest-thumping right through the computer screen.
"This organization is for those that possess the Warrior Spirit," Chapman wrote. "The weak or timid need not apply."
A few days after that, the Proud Boys network, a group that Vice co-founder and former Fox News contributor Gavin McInnes calls a “pro-West fraternal organization," posted a notice about the formation of the alt-knights' order and a call for "strong minded men" who are "comfortable in fisticuffs" to join. I reached out to Chapman in hopes of seeing his "warrior spirit" for myself. Alas, I ended up disappointed.
Initially, Chapman seemed interested in talking and gave me his phone number. But when I called him, he refused to speak to me, insisting that I email my questions instead. Since then nearly a week has gone by, and Chapman has not answered my emailed questions or any of my follow-up nudges on Facebook. (He has read them, though.) The "warrior spirit" is apparently not enough to help him tough out a conversation with a journalist about why he believes the world needs the Fraternal Order of the Alt-Knights."
