Since groypers are in the news, worth revisiting how antisemitic conspiracy theorists Nina Power and Daniel 'DC' Miller were exposed at trial as secretly operating a series of groyper accounts that they used to target me – including the 'Nina Power Groyper' and 'DC Groyper' accounts seen here:

This is brilliant. I'm proud to call her my friend.

One of the maddest stories of left-turned-right tbh - from anti-policing philosophy informed by experiencing police violence to totaly batshit esoteric nonsense and pathetic levels of cringe groyperism

the juxtaposition of 'let's enjoy Paddington bear!' and 'let's deport human migrants to the Taliban!' is too perfect

I tried to keep track of which UK philosophers rushed to the defence of their friend Nina Power once it was revealed she was an esoteric fascist and vehement racist obsessed with Hitler, and I counted less than a handful (maybe three?), and one of them was James Orr

After 28 days spent in the gallery, stencilling, painting, and a great many conversations, my Beaconsfield commission, ‘Cross-examination’, is now complete. I’d like to thank everyone who came to visit, for the unexpected hugs & tears, for the compassionate discussions about the horrors of trials…

Note: the supportive comments from Stock, Orr and Fox and messages decrying ‘cancel culture’ and in support of ‘free speech’ are directed towards an individual that used a SLAPP in a vain attempt to bankrupt a Jewish artist for expressing his free speech—the truth. It is not about ‘free speech’

Maybe one day the UK media will enquire into why Baroness Claire Fox vocally supported Nina Power on the day it was publicly revealed she said ‘I’m definitely a Nazi now lol’

Stock’s knee-jerk defence of an esoteric hitlerist gives the game away: antisemitism, racism and transphobia are each separate (but overlapping and intersecting) manifestations of their overarching worldview, and ‘censorship’ and ‘free speech’ are stalking horses for their political project

The precise moment when it was revealed Nina Power mused ‘Wonder what the real deal is with the Protocols [of the Elders of Zion]’ and kept a copy of Mein Kampf is when one of the most prominent UK anti-trans figureheads rushed to her defence: ‘keep doing what you do Nina, you are great’.

Never forget how Kathleen Stock stood by Nina Power, initially promoting her crowdfunder so Power could attempt to bully someone into silence, and even after she had been fully exposed as a fascist ghoul in court.

Also of relevance, Daniel Miller is the son of Spectator columnist Jonathan Miller. At the time of bringing their libel action, Daniel Miller was a writer for 'Social Matter', a neo-Nazi website that called for the "segregation and separation" of Jewish people. More here:

a sign of just how far the UK press has sunk that the Telegraph and the Spectator are *still* publishing Nina Power a year after comments like this were exposed

My beaconsfield.ltd.uk commission 'Cross-examination' continues to be an intense & cathartic undertaking, as I slowly transcribe one of the more Kafkaesque passages from my High Court trial against the far right. Join me at the gallery on 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 26, 30 & 31 July 🪜🖌️

If anyone else is threatened by Kathleen Stock - or any of those other GCs who love free speech so much they have defamation lawyers on speed dial - please do get in touch. We employ a full time lawyer to fend off this intellectually dishonest bullshit.

Just learned of the death of Walker Storz, a NRx Land acolyte whose article 'Toward a Hitlerian Disability Politics' figured in my trial against Nina Power and Daniel Miller. Storz, who wrote 'The Incel is the Only Possible Revolutionary Subject', also targeted me with abhorrent abuse.

Insightful work here from James Wilson (@per-incuriam.bsky.social) who is continuing to shed much-needed light on Mark Lewis, the lawyer who represented far-right "bullies" Daniel Miller & Nina Power in my High Court case, and his concerning modus operandi: perincuriam2.substack.com/p/episode-8-...

Who are the Basketweavers? Behind the purposefully inconspicuous name is a shadowy far right network with plans to form a new elite, and connections to a swathe of far-right extremists. hopenothate.org.uk/the-basketwe...

I’ll be up a ladder for much of the next fortnight at Beaconsfield making a new work, ‘Cross-examination’ as part of the gallery’s 30th anniversary show, ‘Manifesto for Sustainable Experimentation’ (until 9 August) 🪜🖌️ Join us at the opening this Saturday, 12-5pm: beaconsfield.ltd.uk/projects/man...

Daniel 'DC' Miller—the American neo-fascist bankrupted alongside Nina Power as a result of their failed 5-year libel claim against me—is highlighted in this excellent Guardian report on recent far-right organising, calling for Trump to overthrow the UK government: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Deeply ironic that James Orr, this purported champion of free speech, was so quick to defend someone whose unhinged antisemitic conspiracy theories led them to spend half a decade unsuccessfully pursuing me through the libel courts in order to quash my freedom of speech, but anyhoo… 😶

Orr wants to get into that space so bad he’ll defend Nina Power after it’s revealed in court she thinks Black people are an ‘alien race’

Pretty appalling that Cambridge University associate professor James Orr is regurgitating conspiracist nonsense from Maga fanatics Elon Musk and J.D Vance without bothering to check if it’s true.

Big fan of the Crab Museum in Margate! 🦀🏳️‍⚧️🧡

OpenAI's move to allow generating "Ghibly stlye" images isn't just a cute PR stunt. It is an expression of dominance and the will to reject and refuse democratic values. It is a vulgar display of power. https://tante.cc/2025/03/28/vulgar-display-of-power/

I will never forget how Kathleen Stock promoted a campaign by two far-right conspiracy theorists to use libel laws to suppress my free speech in combating neo-Nazism. When their lawsuit failed—the Judge ruling their conduct aggressive antisemitic bullying—Stock doubled down. Free speech hypocrisy.

So proud of the @hopenothate.org.uk team for bringing this report together. It’s not an easy read but it’s definitely an essential one 👇

Leo Frank was innocent, he was falsely accused—he was lynched by a posse of right-wing antisemitic vigilantes in Georgia. Black Americans demonstrated solidarity with Jewish Americans and condemned his murder. I have never even seen Nazis (tacitly) approve of his murder in public, it’s so repulsive

New from me: the second annual Natalism conference is happening later this month at a UT Austin owned venue, it includes a bunch of far right speakers including self described eugenicists www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

An update on the esoteric hitlerists Nina Power (who continues to be published in mainstream UK outlets and has ramped up her guest appearances on overt neo-Nazi podcasts since she lost her case) and Daniel Miller (a weird nobody and her best friend)

I'm very glad that Luke's case played out the way it did. While the facts and law made it obvious he was in the right, my confidence in the ability of jurists is... low, at the moment. I especially recommend reading the addendum from 2 July '24, because it shows how clear the reality is.

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

People often assume the emotions associated with cruelty are hatred and anger, but it’s actually pleasure and joy. Fascists relish their cruelty. They roll it around on their tongue like a mouthful of full-bodied wine. They laugh as they harm.

"The right wing intellectual project is simply to ask: ‘what would have to be true in order to justify the terrible things I want to do?’ Its aesthetic project is to flood the zone with bullshit to erode the intellectual foundations for resisting political cruelty." 🔥🔥 by @garethwatkins.bsky.social

Nina Power enquiring about criminalising antifascist resistance, a month after going on an open neo-Nazi podcast. So many centrist philosophers haven’t even apologised for materially supporting Nina Power for years, much less atoned for their actions

Every genocide begins with hate, racism and the other-ing of groups by those in power. Today is a reminder: we must challenge hate at every stage, wherever and whenever we see it. From the seats of power, to our communities. Silence is not an option 🕯️

80 years on from the liberation of Auschwitz, we’re seeing a rise in antisemitism, racism and other forms of hatred globally and in the UK. This combined with historical revisionism and the spread of disinformation is worrying and dangerous.
