They’re so broke they can amass a small army and highly sophisticated weapons and bombs.
That’s an awful take. Do economic circumstances play a historical role in radicalizing people? Sure. But the difference between that guy and a black person is that he has the expectation of superiority and success in “his” country. That’s the true factor - white supremacy isn’t working effectively for him. The whiteness causes him to aim at the wrong target. Guys like that don’t realize that the world they want cannot happen without anti-racism. It was so stupid and tone deaf.
Has Trump condemned this yet?
he called it a “dangerous plot” while condemning the governor

I do think part of the delay towards the end was getting the 4,000 together for the explosives. These groups are usually under/unemployed and struggling financially, which is partially how the CHS cut into them, in some cases. These kinds of investigations bring into a difficult and complex conversation about the investigatory techniques of the FBI, remember the guys from Newburgh? Not saying that exactly happened here, but it's hard for prosecutors and agents to determine what is just talk, and what is likely to be actionable. You can see they baby stepped these guys into the three essential parts of a conspiracy, conspiring with one other person, having knowledge of a conspiracy, and taking at least one step to carry the conspiracy out.
These cases can unravel sometimes though, like the "cannibal cop".
If you want a stylized and obviously fictionalized story like this, watched Betrayed from 1988, with Tom Berenger and Debra Winger. Focuses on these rural hate groups, that exist in everyday small towns.
