Groyper Nation is a groundbreaking examination of how an obscure internet meme transformed into a political identity-and how that identity reshaped the American far right in the 21st century.Blending cultural analysis, political history, and digital ethnography, William H. Carter traces the rise of the "Groyper" phenomenon from its roots in online message boards to its role in shaping a generation of "America First" activists. Through a detailed twelve-chapter narrative, Carter reveals how memes, livestreams, and campus confrontations fused into a playbook that challenged mainstream conservatism, courted controversy, and, at times, veered into extremist politics.This book explores: The origins of Groyper imagery and its role in meme cultureThe rise of Nick Fuentes as a central figure in the America First movementHow digital tactics like meme wars, raids, and viral heckling became recruitment toolsThe push to institutionalize the movement through conferences like AFPACThe pathways of online radicalization and their real-world consequencesPlatform responses, deplatforming, and the challenges of democratic governance in the attention economyGroyper Nation is not just about one movement-it's about the future of politics in the digital age. It asks urgent questions about how irony, humor, and online belonging can harden into exclusionary ideologies, and what strategies exist to counteract these forces without undermining free expression.For readers of political science, internet culture, media studies, or contemporary history, this book offers both a cautionary tale and a toolkit for understanding the next wave of online-fueled movements.
