Identifying fascists is a thorough, methodical, and verifiable process.

You might remember the B.C. white nationalist conference I covered a few months back, Exiles of the Golden Age. Well, @antihate.ca just identified 18 attendees -- and CBC got two more. Naturally, these dudes have been crashing out. So I gathered some favourites for your viewing pleasure:

On Monday, we published this investigation into "Exiles of the Golden Age," a fascist conference in Vancouver this July. We identified 18 of the 50+ people our photographer captured outside the venue, including small business owners and neo-Nazis. Here's how we did it. 🧵

“The owner of Foundry Combat Sports attended the July event put on by Exiles of the Golden Age, according to CBC News, which obtained video gathered by the non-profit Canadian Anti-Hate Network of attendees and organizers entering the event.”

I was interviewed as part of the CBC & @antihate.ca's investigation that exposed a covert neo-Nazi gathering involving MMA gym owners, coaches and recruiters for fascist fight clubs. www.sportspolitika.news/p/mma-neo-na...

Incredible work here from the folks at CAHN:

1/ NEW: We identified 20 people who attended a white nationalist conference and, despite their efforts to keep it secret, caught another 30 people on film to identify in the future. Several MMA/combat sports instructors were discovered and their gyms have cut ties. 🧵👇

Listen to the CBC World Report clip on the story here:

In July, a white nationalist event was held at a cultural centre in Vancouver. Organizers are affiliated with the Hammerskins & the promo posts for the event included symbols used by white nationalists. Excellent reporting by @antihate.ca www.antihate.ca/white_nation...

Canadian Anti-Hate Network continuing to knock it out of the park on their research and reporting into white nationalism/supremacy in Canada.

Well done @antihate.ca for this investigative reportage, and also CBC radio for leading their 8am World Report with it.

This is one of the best explainers on the ongoing saga out of BC. Too few mainstream news articles touch on the connections to the Convoy, or the fact that it’s really the same movement, with ostriches. The farmers are saying this is just starting. it’ll be interesting to see where it goes now.

Matthew Althorpe is appearing in a Toronto court right now to schedule his sentencing. He recently changed his plea to guilty. Althorpe is appearing over Zoom from the detention centre. globalnews.ca/news/1147175...

New Fighting Matters! FASHION, FITNESS, FIGHTING: HOW HATE GROUPS ATTRACT YOUNG MEN In this episode, Steve Kwan sits down with journalist @colborne.bsky.social of @bellingcat.com to expose how far-right movements use aesthetics and martial arts culture to recruit young men. youtu.be/lpSN4lNn_IM

There is a real and scary rise of far-right extremism happening right now -- but we need to be careful not to make this into a witch hunt. Far right culture exists, but not everything they embrace is only embraced by them. @amaramarasingam.bsky.social and @acmack.bsky.social explain the nuance:

NEW: Whether you measure it by number of supporters, fundraising ability, or by the size of its militant groups, the white nationalist movement in Canada has never been larger or more of a threat.

“The Dominion Society of Canada celebrated the coverage. Their goal is to normalize the concept of mass deportations of non-Europeans, and Tyrie says he wants to make Conservative Party of Canada leader Pierre Poilievre use their word for it (remigration) by the end of the year.”

The fascist movement in Canada is growing and becoming more militant.

Sickening words and ideas. A deeply disturbing but very important read. I think Canadians need to realize that our country also includes this kind of organized white nationalism and hate, and that we need to be doing all we can to work against it.

"On Sunday, October 26, about 40 masked and uniformed Second Sons Canada and Frontenac Active Club blackshirts led by MacKenzie assembled in front of CBC headquarters in Ottawa with a banner reading 'CBC hates white people'. A similar number assembled in front of the CBC building in Regina."

Essential reading from @antihate.ca:

NEW: Whether you measure it by number of supporters, fundraising ability, or by the size of its militant groups, the white nationalist movement in Canada has never been larger or more of a threat.

Today we published the last of three articles investigating the exposed web server for the neo-Nazi magazine Rope Culture. We’re identifying several far-right figures involved, including a Canadian Nazi podcaster-turned-Orthodox priest, a Danish metal musician, and a notorious American pedophile.

“Florian Geyer” hosted Rope Culture’s “Christian Fascist” podcast, Mysterium Fasces. We’ve identified him as Alexandre Jacob Duiven, a June 2022 graduate of the Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Seminary in New York.

Some great reporting by my colleague at the St. Catharines Standard, Bill Sawchuk, who looks at how the horrible sexual assault of a minor was seized upon by a Hitler-quoting, white nationalist in Welland, Ontario with ties to Second Sons named Rob Primo. www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/news/niagara...

Canadians crossing borders, and Americans crossing into Canada, as part of Active Club/fitness club organizing and networking are getting attention from intelligence agencies.

1/ Matthew Althorpe pled guilty to terrorism charges related to his involvement in both Atomwaffen Division and the Terrorgram collective. The Crown is recommending his sentence be 20 years. Sentencing will be in November.

Last week, Trump declared “Antifa” a domestic terrorist organization. This is why the far-right in the US & Canada see it as an obstacle that has to be cleared in order to carry out their smash-and-grab of the political establishment. 👇 🧵 www.antihate.ca/trump_lying_...

Did you know far-right extremists are bragging about having guys on the “inside” of the Conservative Party? Of course, they could be full of it. But @antihate.ca has the receipts of the claim — and we play them for you on today’s episode of Bubble Pop:

It’s not just the United States. If you’ve followed my reporting, you already know: Canada also has a far-right extremist problem. Now, they’re using Charlie Kirk’s assassination as a moment to mobilize, recruit and further radicalize their followers:

NEW: Last Saturday, a minor far-right organizer held a protest in support of mass deportations and “remigration” at Christie Pits Park in Toronto. Anti-racists organized their own rally, showed up early, played music and had a great time, and greatly outnumbered the pro-deportation protest. 🥳

“Steinbach Pride's board received tips through "word of mouth" that individuals had made verbal threats against the Pride event in "retaliation" for the shooting death of Charlie Kirk…according to board president Chris Plett.”

🚨 1/ This Saturday there is a rally against hate and white nationalism at Christie Pits Park in Toronto. It’s in response to a “Canada First” protest calling for remigration and mass deportations... 🧵

Today Patrick Macdonald was sentenced to 10 years in prison for participating in terrorist activity, facilitating terrorist activity, and inciting hate against Jews for one or more terrorist entities, including the now defunct Atomwaffen Division. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

White nationalist groups in Canada & the U.S. are pushing “remigration”—a dangerous blueprint for mass deportations of non-Europeans. Framed as policy, it’s rooted in the “Great Replacement” conspiracy, a roadmap for ethnic cleansing, & aimed at mainstreaming racist ideology. More from @antihate.ca

9 damning, disturbing and disgraceful quotes from Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms president John Carpay’s disbarment report The Law Society of Alberta has banned the president of a right-wing, convoy-friendly charity from practicing law

The new unifying calling card of the far right: remigration. How white nationalists in multiple countries, including the US and Canada, are pushing for mass deportations of non-Europeans to be part of the political platforms of their right-wing parties. www.antihate.ca/remigration_...

I believe there are so many more white folks who would 100% rather have neighbors who are POC, of the LGBTQ community, of a different religion, than live amongst racist, ignorant white people with nothing to offer but hate. Hope I’m correct.

I've been waiting to see anti-hate take this on!! This is super important:

NEW: “Remigration” and “mass deportations” is the new rallying cry of white nationalists. Experts say it’s a call for ethnic cleansing. A new Canadian group is trying to "normalize" the concept and get the Conservative Party of Canada to talk more about immigration. www.antihate.ca/remigration_...

The entire premise of the multi-page article is a supposed (but fake) "Epstein client list" leaked by Dawson in which he highlights Israeli Jews. Dawson is a longtime Holocaust denier who also blames Jews for 9/11. He is involved in white nationalist networks and close with Diagolon and Red Ice TV.

Druthers Magazine - which distributes roughly 200,000 print issues across Canada a month - got really, *really* antisemitic in their last print issue. Issue suggests Christians may want to take violent vengeance on the Jewish people. Also incl. 10 paragraphs praising Holocaust denier Ryan Dawson.
