MODERATORS
I haven't heard this before. Source?
They were called The Order, and I misremembered their constituency: more neo-nazi than KKK, although one of their goals was to be a bridge between the two groups.
Apparently they made a movie about them recently, of the same name, so I’m finding it hard to search for info about the group itself, but I recall hearing the computer-buying tidbit from Behind The Bastards and being able to find a source for it online.
In case you wanna continue the hunt: I believe it had a sepia-tone picture or illustration at the top of the article and it was a long-form story not a current event piece. I also recall they were specifically Apple II computers, but searching podcast transcripts for the word “apple” yields a flood of results for “apple podcasts”, so not much help there.
This tool seemed promising, but didn’t quite get me there: https://podscripts.co/podcasts/behind-the-bastards/
Wikipedia can at least corroborate the armored car bit:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Order_(white_supremacist_group)
Edit: Part of the problem with the podscripts approach may be that the transcripts are far from perfect:
“Billet and boards” instead of “bulletin boards”
Edit 2: Ooh, I think I posted the source on Reddit at one point, and I haven’t scorched-earth’d my comments. I wasn’t able to find it doing
site:reddit.com “kibiz0r” armored trucksbut you might find it that way if you experiment a bit.
