I suspect these "leather bound" books are so you can buy a book about a niche obsession to swag out your bookshelf with having never read it, making it look like you've got some deep knowledge to impress your fellow crackers with.
There's the white supremacy thing the other poster mentioned, and there are conspiracy rabbit holes about milk pasteurization, with overlapping audiences.
It would be hilarious to see fascists go from "we like milk because it represents white purity" to "we drink impure off-color milk that could kill us, but this still somehow represents white purity".
I mean you can go have a look if you want cuz that is definitely a thing, but it's not that hilarious because then you have to be exposed to the rest of their filth. Fash watching is miserable and not a great idea for most people haha. (garfield propaganda reminder dot png)
Hopefully there's a big mass fuckup and a bunch of them die so spectacularly that we can enjoy it from outside their sphere of cognitohazard sharing.
