The Proud Boys were formed by Gavin McInnes as a parody of men's groups. It was intentionally over-the-top ridiculous because it was very ironic.
However when Antifa started trying to attack and deplatform Gavin, his Proud Boys group started coming to his defense. Members of the group started showing up to other free speech events to protect the speakers from Antifa, and this has since become their main mission.
Of course standing up against the insane left-wing radicals falsely branded them "white supremacists" and Gavin stepped down.
Here is the Proud Boy's origin explained to Joe Rogan by someone who was there.
