*-The "opinion" part of of this statement has to do with whether or not Boyd Rice was/is an actual Neo-Nazi, the rest is factual. Boyd also co-owned a Tiki bar in Denver back in the 90s, and was an acolyte of Anton LeVay.

Unpopular or not, I'm of the opinion that Boyd Rice is not a "nazi", but writing about social darwinism or anything against the grain of cultural marxism will most definitely get you labeled "nazi". I've met Boyd and in real life...he's one pleasant, polite, mild mannered, knowledgable cat.
Tiki Boyd's in Denver opened in the mid-2000's...bummer it didn't last long...

Help me out here... Did he truly "kick-start the exotica revival?" I've heard that attributed to others, I'm honestly not trolling, because I really don't know. So thought I'd circle back around and ask this point-blank.

What am I drinking right now? I'm sipping barrel-proof whiskey with a single large ice cube. It's sublime.
