I only recently learned what a “groyper” is - you may or may not be familiar with the term?
From what I can tell, a groyper is a hardline white nationalist. Often anti-Semitic, groypers are hostile to mainstream conservatives. To the extent they have a coherent agenda, groypers seem more national socialism than free-market capitalism.
Having been involved in the conservative movement for three decades, I’d hesitate to call anyone with such views conservative. Indeed, I’d argue people that think like that are essentially hardline leftists.

For the most recent decades of my 87 years, Vietnam’s position on my vacation bucket list mirrored the rank of casinos on my list of steps to ensure a comfortable retirement. I have friends who vacationed there and loved it, and I had friends who got sent there and came back in a box. Other friends returned damaged, and a disturbing number of them died young. My own years of military service during the 1960s took me nowhere near Vietnam; even so, I wasn’t interested in seeing the place. That changed last October.
