BEEFY BOYS (formerly COMMIE CREW DISCORD) is one of the 3 central groups that make up the WIDEVERSE, spawned from the ruins of the old COMMUNISM discord that had been abandoned after the formation of BMW. During the 2nd COMMUNISM CIVIL WAR however, the discord was revived by Prude and a few other members of COMMIE CREW who had failed or refused to integrate properly into BMW. The discord was later repurposed as the trolling/political wing of the WIDEVERSE after The Great Pol Shoah of 2018 and the failure of The Rocket Project.
Pre-CIVIL WAR
Shelarahn founded the Discord on August 27th 2015, to test its potential for the groups new primary chat platform. However, many were hesitant to make the jump from Facebook Messenger and as such, the Discord was never fully adopted, except for when needed for voice communication. The Discord did however find new traction during The 2015 Hiatus, when many of the newly recruited Bimmers were brought into the Discord, since BMW didnt have a formal Discord itself
After the formation of BMWs Discord in March of 2016, the old COMMIE CREW discord was largely abandoned by most of the old crew, even the newer joins.

CIVIL WAR Era
When Prude and Sicari were banned in August of 2016, they retreated to the old COMMIE CREW Discord, which Shelarahn had given to Prude after the formation of BMW in May.

Afterwards, the discord laid abandoned for years, as the BEEFsters migrated back to BMW.
Revival Era

Prude and co. began inviting all the Rocket chatters and new pol trending friends from WTT with the new leaderships blessing.

As a result, GESTAPO removed itself from the Discord and resumed its previous MO of decentralization. The fallout would directly lead to The Sauce Affair, and thus the end of Clown World War I. The leak made the rounds among the usual suspects but did little to move the needle, and was later mostly debunked in the months following the end of the war.
Post-Clown War

However, their movement was early on infiltrated by GESTAPO agents and run into the ground, much to the enjoyment of the BEEFSTERS. A few refugees from SomethingAwful and new admirers from Kiwifarms and Something Sensitive joined the ranks of BEEFY BOYs in the ensuing fallout.
BEEFYTV
