Anti-LGBTQ2+ street preachers Artur & Dawid Pawlowski have been members of the "patriot" scene for years. Recently, the brothers organized the “Jericho Torch March,” a rally that borrowed its promotional images from the deadly Unite the Right protest in Charlottesville.

Professional troll & racist content creator Kevin Johnston will also be there. His laundry list of problematic endeavours include promotion of hatred charges, punching a grocery store owner, and a still outstanding $2.5M bill for defamation.

And “antifa is coming” according to Storie and Johnston. Ed suggests people “watch for buses.”

They claim to have seen it on @EdmontonAgainst’s feed which they ... didn’t.
Thanks to @JaneQCitizen, Pat King and Jack Shultz are allegedly going.
Jack Shultz previously claimed to be leaving Edmonton in a livestream in which he threatened to kill people he perceives to be pedophiles.

THREAD:

We’ll be tweeting what we see today at #GraceLife church in Spruce Grove, AB. A number of known hatemongers are expected to show up today to protest the closure of pastor James Coates’ church.

#ableg #cdnmedia
We wrote a quick primer on some of the people expected to show yesterday:

/2
Background: Coates was jailed in March for refusing to follow AHS guidelines of 15% capacity, masking and social distancing.

He continued to flout the restrictions, so a fence was erected around the property.

A regular fixture and small-time organizer for protests held by the racist-right in Ontario, Ron Banerjee has come to the fore as the figurehead of racist Hindu nationalism in Canada.
antihate.ca/ron_banerjee_h…
1/
A staple of Ontario's hate movements for years, Banerjee's current goal seems to be to label Sikhs, especially those living in the diaspora, as Khalistani, a term used to denounce Sikhs as being separatists and engaging in acts of terror.
2/
Recently, he posed for photos with attendees at pro-Modi government protests. At another event, Banerjee recorded himself berating a passing group of Sikhs on motorcycles.

The Canadian Proud Boys Found The Most Q-Pilled Lawyer To Challenge Their Terrorist Designation.

It's wild. He's referenced Frazzledrip -- the conspiracy theory that there's a video of Hilary Clinton drinking a kid's blood. @travis_view @QanonAnonymous

The Proud Boys part of this story was first reported by @StewGlobal, who brought it to our attention. We quickly realized from his tweets that this lawyer was deep down the QAnon rabbit-hole. globalnews.ca/news/7731256/o…

#superstraight is the latest in hateful, transphobic, far-right trends to hit the internet intended to cause outrage, harm, and undermine the struggle of the LGBTQ2+ community while seeking mainstream attention.

It’s an op - and you shouldn’t fall for it.

Coined by a TikTok user, the concept is portrayed as a “new sexuality” that describes straight & cis men & women who are only attracted to biological members of the opposite sex
It’s trans, queer & homophobia with a clear intent to upset, harm, radicalize & get media coverage

It picked up steam & landed where common sense & human decency go to die: 4chan. /pol/ jumped on the idea as a radicalization tool while harming trans & queer folks & added the SS lightning bolts to the flag.

“Push super straight. It makes tr****** seethe” one post reads.

A Florida magistrate judge has decided that Paul Miller will remain in custody leading up to his trial.
antihate.ca/neo_nazi_paul_…
Miller's day in court was originally meant to weigh if he'd be held in custody before his trial on the original count of being a felon in possession of a firearm. This stems from an incident in 2018.
As the proceedings got underway, the prosecutor added possession charges for a short barrel rifle & 400+ rounds of ammunition found after his property was raided by the FBI. Parts of the rifle were found hidden in a dryer.

Éric Duhaime a insinué que des crimes contre la communauté musulmane n’étaient pas des crimes haineux, et a travaillé avec des figures haineuses comme Faith Goldy. Maintenant, il se présente à la chefferie d’un parti - avec l’appui de trois sénateurs.
antihate.ca/trois_s_nateur…
1/
Connu pour ses prises de positions conservatrices, Duhaime est souvent tombé dans l’eau chaude pour des propos inflammatoires sur les ondes. Il souhaite devenir chef du Parti conservateur du Québec.
2/
Il a défendu les appels à la «remigration» d’Atalante, disant que ce slogan faisant la promotion de la déportation des immigrants racisés n’est pas haineux. Il a aussi dit que la communauté noire avait «peu de héros dont ils peuvent être fiers.»
