That seems libelous against anyone who has identified as a Threeper, especially since anyone who actually understands what Three Percent founder Mike Vanderboegh advocated knows it is an idea, not an organization:
The Three Percent idea, the movement, the ideal, was designed to be a simple, powerful concept that could not be infiltrated or subjected to agents provocateurs like many organizations that I observed in the constitutional militia movement of the 90s… The Three Percent idea, being an idea, is internalized and finds expression in action when required without any top-down organization issuing orders.
Here’s another media lie:
She said a lot of the extremism in the U.S. is being driven by white supremacists and anti-government extremists, such as those following the Three Percenter ideology.
Vanderboegh was a Constitutionalist who rejected racism on religious, moral, and ideological grounds, identifying the judging of individuals based on that as collectivism.
Real racists and anti-government extremists hated his guts and took joy in his cancer and his death.
You don’t insult a man, and in lying about him libel others who share his beliefs, and then wish him “all the best,” all the while representing yourself as being your company’s arbiter for customer trust and safety.

This is particularly disturbing, as Patreon was one of the “alternative” funding organizations I switched to, to make monthly donations to a couple of gun rights organizations, when I terminated my PayPal accounts.
Why would anyone still be using Patreon? This is the least exclusive of the tech tyranny services; SubscribeStar and others filled this gap instantly and easily once Patreon showed their anti-liberty colors. Shame on this guy or anyone else for giving them one red cent.
