'''Kyle Chapman''' (November 12, 1975), also known by the nickname '''Based Stickman''', is an American white nationalist and [[Alt-Right]] activist. He earned his nickname and prominence in the alt-right movement after he was recorded beating an [[Antifa]] counter-protester with a stick at the March 2017 March 4 Trump rally in Berkeley, California.<ref>[https://newrepublic.com/article/141766/unlikely-rise-alt-right-hero The Unlikely Rise of an Alt-Right Hero], ''The New Republic''</ref>

Chapman was the founder and original leader of the [[Fraternal Order of the Alt-Knights]] (FOAK), a paramilitary group that is considered a partner or subgroup of the far-right, neo-[[fascist]] [[Proud Boys]] organization.<ref>[https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/group/fraternal-order-alt-knights-foak FRATERNAL ORDER OF ALT-KNIGHTS (FOAK)], Southern Poverty Law Center</ref> He led the FOAK until later that year, when he faded from his leadership position following an assault conviction related to the March 4 Trump rally.
