“You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of paranoia and propaganda; bigotry and belligerence. A journey with strangers to fiction and things stranger than fiction. Next stop, exit 161: the Twilight Zone!”
A group of Nazi propagandists within the Boogaloo Movement are going by the fashionable name Patriot Wave. At their helm, a US Navy Reservist, one Jordon Lee Sherperd: alias “Squid”, the founder and owner of the brand. Enter Patriot Wave.
Patriot Wave first came to the attention of antifascists, press, and researchers following the 2020 Virginia Citizens Defense League Lobby Day where Jordon and a group of supporters sported Patriot Wave patches and siege-style skull-masks made popular by neo-nazi terror groups.
Patriot Wave was also covered in @IwriteOK and @jason_a_w’s piece for @bellingcat “The Boogaloo Movement Is Not What You Think”

When Jordon and PatriotWave aren’t organizing irl and mainstreaming accelerationism, they’re propagandizing their followers on their Facebook Boogaloo Page and discord, as well as evading bans through their associated network of individual admin pages.
Amidst COVID social distancing these pages function as hate groups, allowing the administrators to drum up enough fervor to ensure future violent action is taken against their defined ideological enemies. Below is propaganda from Patriot Wave admin “Molotov”.
They’re on their 4th iteration of Patriot Wave now with various individual admin pages. These can be easily found linked on the pages shown above. Open source investigators and antifascists are also welcome to DM for more information and potential leads for further investigation.
Jordon views his fashwave propaganda as modern revolutionary war pamphlets. Patriot Wave’s work and memetics appear to be quite effective, modernizing right wing death squad memes and accelerationist aesthetics to fit the libertarian and constitutionalist framework of the Boog.
Patriot Wave is a major factor in the spread of /k/ (4chan’s weapons board) and Boogaloo style memes and propaganda points. Examples include the veneration of the white supremacist settler colony Rhodesia (present day Zimbabwe) as well as their infamous rifle, the FN FAL.
Jordon’s particular positionality within the military as well as role as owner of Patriot Wave is particularly worrisome. Not only is he privy to military training and knowledge he also appears to demonstrate an adherence to esoteric nazism and Odinism.
With militia and Boogaloo violence worsening across the country it is particularly important that these fascists can no longer hide behind libertarian or constitutionalist optics. Simply put Patriot Wave and their adherents are fucking Nazis.
“We move next week on into a shadowy area that treads a very thin line between bad optics and fedposting. Stay tuned for exceptional opsec blunders by Jordon’s friends. Mark the date and turn your dial to channel 161 for the next installment of the Twilight Zone.”
