(THREAD) Admins for two private FB groups, "Confederate States III%" & "Heritage Not Hate", are behind one of the main calls for far-Right rallies at Stone Mountain, 8/15.

We recently documented CSIII/HNH's links to the white power scene. Here are more racists in their FB groups

Michael Carl Barber of Brunswick, Georgia is in both the CSIII% and HNH private groups as "Carl Barber".

Barber's Facebook contains the "Fourteen Words" white power slogan authored by neo-Nazi terrorist David Lane (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Lan…).

The profile also contains an image featuring a death's head and a celtic cross with the word "Whiter". This is blatant white supremacist stuff.

On the VKontakte social network, Barber is connected to many Klansmen.

This screencap shows that he's VK friends with Greg Calhoun ("Thor") and Jason Bradford, both members of the International Keystone Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.

Predictably, Barber is also friends with Chester Doles, the founder and leader of "American Patriots USA".

Doles has spent decades in the white supremacist movement. Doles' APUSA front group is also calling for 8/15 rallies at Stone Mountain.

Michael Carl Barber had an interesting arrest on first-degree kidnapping charges in 2018.

Barber is also listed as the CEO of Barber's Body Shop in Brunswick, Georgia.

Paul Jason Duvall AKA "Paulie J. Duvall" and "Paulie J. Whiteman" of Georgia is a member of the "Heritage Not Hate" private group.

One of Duvall's Facebook accounts was listed as "going" on the Facebook event for "Rock Stone Mountain II", a white nationalist rally scheduled to take place in February 2019 but whose organizing collapsed after a series of setbacks.

In late 2018, Duvall listed himself as a representative of the "Southeastern White Knights Brotherhood."

This post from Duvall's "Paulie J. Whiteman" account also suggests Klan sympathies.

"Belle Boyd" is a member of the Confederate States III% private Facebook group.

"Belle Boyd" is an alias of Mary Barlow, a well-known Florida member of the white supremacist/Southern secessionist League of the South.

Does everyone remember John Duncan of LaGrange GA?

Duncan was still posting last year about going to Stone Mountain, even after the white power "Rock Stone Mountain II" rally was canceled. He didn't show on the day.

Duncan is now in the CSIII% FB group.

Finally, here's some discussion from "Heritage Not Hate" that seems pretty... hateful.

This is from a thread about the most "Southern" words.

The person who liked this racist comment, Debbie Guin ("Dab Demere"), is the main organizer of "Defending Stone Mountain" on August 15.

Spread the word & see you on the day!
