The infobox currently lists Black Lives Matter as "opponents" of the Proud Boys. I'm not sure this is justified. Yes, absolutely, the Proud Boys are against BLM and have engaged as such... but I cannot find in this article any mention of BLM trying to do anything to the Proud Boys, and the Proud Boys aren't even mentioned in the BLM article. (Quickly found definition of "opponent": someone who competes against or fights another in a contest, game, or argument; a rival or adversary.) So at first glance it does not appear that BLM is directly opposing the Proud Boys; they are a target of the Proud Boys. As such, this should be removed from the infobox. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 07:06, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. Nothing in the article suggests that BLM is their opponent. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:16, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've gone and done it. (And to be clear, Antifa is a different case; we have sourced statements on Antifa coming to a PB-centric rally.) -- Nat Gertler (talk) 14:02, 22 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There was a short-lived UK division of Proud Boys. This is documented on Jack Buckby's article with a source and can be included on the Proud Boys article. 2A00:23C6:C022:C701:904E:8571:793:B0EA (talk) 13:21, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
