"'Rundo is less popular than he would like,' Joshua Fisher-Birch, a researcher with the US-based NGO Counter Extremism Project, told Bellingcat. 'Rundo doesn’t have the influencer profile he likely wants, which is also made more difficult by his inability to use mainstream social media easily.' ...
Accordingly, Fisher-Birch warns that Rundo is still dangerous and is 'trying to gain a following within the American extreme right.' Rundo continues to shepherd a model of RAM-styled fight clubs across the US and beyond, targeting young men and recruiting at high schools, gyms and other places. In addition, Fisher-Birch told Bellingcat, Rundo increasingly stresses the need in his output for members to be trained, ready and willing as 'warriors' to use physical violence against their perceived enemies."
