There's a lot to cover here and more than we can put in a single Twitter thread, so be sure to visit our article to learn more about DezNat Zach Martin: exposedeznat.noblogs.org/zach-martin-ar…
Let's set the stage.
Zach Martin has extreme anti-communist views to the point that he shares conspiracy theories common with anti-government extremists. His views are influenced by the John Birch Society, one of the most controversial far-right groups.
JBS is known for antisemitism, dangerous conspiracy theories & extreme anti-communist propaganda. It's clear Zach has been fixated on anti-communism for a long time as seen in his "a call to Arms" blog, Anti-Communist Society Facebook page, Discord & Twitter
It's no surprise Zach's Anti-Communist Society Facebook page attracts fascists, misogynists, racists, and homophobes.
Here's the post published on the day Heather Heyer was murdered by James Fields in Charlottesville at the Unite the Right hate rally.

Zach ran the DezNat Facebook page solo until Aug 2020. Here's a sampling of content posted on the page, including a Pepe version of Mormon leader Brigham Young. DezNats use this version of Pepe to sow hate.
Even though Zach Martin is married to a WOC, that does not keep him from saying racist things.
Oh, Hi Lenny aka @/HelaWomyn!

CW: racism
Zach Martin says Jesus would say the N-slur. He has plenty of racist things to say.
CW: antisemitism, holocaust denial
Zach Martin is a holocaust denier & perpetuates holocaust denial directly, but more frequently indirectly, to his audience on Twitter. A series of tweets is necessary to demonstrate the broader intent of his insinuations and loaded questions:
CW: neo-Nazism
Zach also referenced the neo-Nazi slogan 14 words and the white supremacist numerical code 88.
This is significant because when combined (like they are in his tweet) they create a powerful symbol for white supremacists.
DezNat Zach Martin also tweeted an image of @Ch_JesusChrist leader Dieter F. Uchtdorf wearing a skull mask popular with neo-Nazi accelerationists, i.e. members of Atomwaffen. Uchtdorf is a German aviator who was born during WWII.

Zach Martin aka Hoss left a memorable trail of breadcrumbs leading us to his identity. We go into further detail in our article: exposedeznat.noblogs.org/zach-martin-ar…
1. He promo'd his ACS Facebook page on an article he wrote
2. He used his normie account to reply to a post
That's how we found this image.
He's tagged in it, it says his real name, and even confirms where he served his @Ch_JesusChrist mission
Using Facebook, we noticed Zach had befriended family, further confirming his identity as Zachary Scott Martin. From a FB post we noted a name tagged in a comment that showed a different name when we hovered over it. This means “Martin Grandehoss” AKA Hoss, is Zach Martin.
Browsing public Facebook posts, we were able to locate additional photos of Zach Martin, his wife Lenny, as well as information about him that provided additional insight (e.g. living in Arizona). We were also able to tie Zach to his FB alt.
