No Images? Click here Welcome to 2018 and to HuffPost’s revamped newsletter about hate and extremism in America! Every week, reporters Luke O'Brien and Christopher Mathias will bring you news and insight from the dark corners of our increasingly polarized political system. From resurgent white nationalists and anti-government militia to social media propagandists and internet trolls, we’ll cover characters and conversations from around the lunatic fringe. We’ll also look at the far left anti-fascist groups that battle the far right online and in the streets.The warning signs were there.HuffPost found the secret Twitter account of a neo-Nazi teenager charged with murdering his girlfriend’s parents in Virginia two weeks ago. Nicholas Giampa’s tweets offer a glimpse into how quickly and openly young white men on the far right can radicalize online before taking their hate into the real world.On Twitter, the 17-year-old Giampa, who used the pseudonym Kevin Gallo, talked about gas chambers and convincing transgender people to kill themselves. He tweeted about teaching children to shoot guns and to “use jews as targets.”Perhaps most disturbingly, he tweeted about reading Siege, a book by neo-Nazi James Mason, whose apocalyptic writings about race war and violent insurrection were inspired by Charles Manson. After decades in the fascist dustbin, the book was republished last year by Atomwaffen Division, an ultra-violent sect of the alt-right white supremacist movement that puts out ISIS-style guerilla training videos and was responsible for at least two homicides in 2017.A sample:By the time Giampa snuck into his girlfriend’s house a few days before Christmas with a gun, he was following several Atomwaffen accounts on Twitter and had been trying to interact with other white supremacist groups. The parents of his girlfriend, who had recently discovered Giampa’s tweets and forbidden their daughter from seeing the Nazi, found him in their daughter’s bedroom in the early morning of Dec. 22. Moments later, they were dead. Then Giampa turned the gun on himself.Cuck 'o the Week
Mommmmmmm!Andrew “Weev” Aurenheimer — the neo-Nazi hacker and webmaster for the white supremacist site Daily Stormer, who has called for the “slaughter” of Jewish children — is of Jewish descent, his mom says.Alyssa Aurenheimer told Newsweek’s Michael Hayden that her son has Jewish lineage “on both sides of his family.” The elusive Weev, who’s allegedly living in Ukraine, couldn’t be reached for comment. His Daily Stormer buddy Andrew Anglin — who is in hiding but is probably in Ohio — wrote that Hayden is an “antifa journalist trying to defame weev in a kike publication.”Last month Weev appeared on “crying Nazi” Christopher Cantwell’s podcast to blame Jews for Daily Stormer losing its .com address after the white supremacist rally in Charlottesville. “There is only one thing absent free speech that we can do to express our dissent and that’s to slaughter you like dogs, and you’re gonna have it coming and your children will deserve to die,” he said. (Cantwell's site was dumped by GoDaddy after Weev's violent remarks.)This is hardly the first time Weev has voiced his violent intentions. Last year, he frequently popped off about murder and genocide and torture in the Daily Stormer’s now-shuttered Discord chat room. Here he is talking about killing black people with a user named “Illegal Aryan,” who was later identified as a Nazi from Philadelphia named Mark Daniel Reardon:And here is how he feels, oddly, about Jews, his own people. Nobody ever said the alt-right wasn’t self-loathing:Reminder: when neo-Nazis talk about wanting to kill Jews, they mean it.Up ShitzkriegAndrew Anglin, the Daily Stormer publisher, has been running for months from a federal harassment lawsuit and is now claiming to be outside a court’s jurisdiction. Anglin hopes a judge will believe that he lives in Nigeria, of all places. But the tiny Nazi was recently spotted in a grocery store in his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. Last night, the Columbus chapter of Anti-Racist Action, an anti-fascist organization, put up these flyers in a condo complex where Anglin might be holed up. Anglin better hope process servers find him before antifa does. If not, he will truly be up shitzkrieg.Related links:White supremacy won't fall with just a few statues.
