November 27, 2024: Our X/Twitter account (@threadreaderapp) got hacked and unrolls aren't working right now. We appreciate your patience until this is resolved.
1. I'm happier than a plug in Gavin's backside to introduce you to Zachary Michael Flaten. Zach was a member of Identity Dixie, a prolific creator of far right propaganda, and a virulent racist.
2. Zach had a car stolen and after his friends created a gofundme for him, Eric Field aka Will McLean promoted the fundraiser in the hate group chat.
3. Zach Flaten also had a sock named Stefan Peterson-Hoppe that wasn't hidden exceptionally well.
4. I don't have the trail for Zach joining Identity Dixie, but I do for his sock. The sock was invited to The Farm vetting channel May 2017 and the main hate group channel December 2017.
5. Nice magnolia.
6. Where did he get the name Stefan Peterson-Hoppe, you might be asking? The dumbest possible of places.
7. Zach was also invited to participate in the Texas meetup, invited by Phil Lovelady aka Bedford Lee Dabney.
8. Zach posted a lot of Formula One and pics from his work at breweries, but that's pretty tame. What interests us are the spicier items.
9. Zach Flaten has some pretty racist ideas about diversity.
10. Zach doesn't believe trans people deserve rights, thinks all feminists are fat, and basically doesn't seem to have any respect for women.
11. He's a turduckin of bigotry.
12. He's a homophobe too.
13. Zach Flaten is extremely racist.
14. There's a certain way the far right winks and nods at their desire to commit violence. They also view others as lesser. Zach posts both kinds and it's not hard to read what he thinks.
15. Explicity Nazi content? Zach Flaten posts that too.
16. Zach also appeared on Rebel Yell to talk about his "Riding the Stateless Tiger". His voice matches the voice for Zach's Youtube.
17. His Youtube channel is named GrandPrixYankee. This guy was in a Southern Nationalist hate group. That heritage not hate talk is a LARP. Always was, always will be.
18. So what is Riding the Stateless Tiger like? Glad you asked.
19. First, it's a lot of promoting Zach Flaten. He literally ties all of his accounts together in so many ways it's impossible to not know it's him.
20. Oswald Mosely, blood and soil, Julius Evola, and great replacement.
21. Antisemitic content for days.
22. I said for days. I meant it.
23. It's all red flags.
24. Zach Flaten seems to have a habit of jusifying fascist men committing violence against women.
25. Zach is a big racist and a promoter of race pseudoscience, like from George Lincoln Rockwell and Charles Murray.
26. Zach left his Stefan Peterson-Hoppe account and Ride the Stateless Tiger page fallow. He moved on to his new orthodox project: The Beauty of the Struggle.
27. I reached out to Zach a year ago, hoping that maybe he was going to tell me he's changed and was trying to be better or something, but no. He ignored me then deleted Stefan Peterson-Hoppe and Stateless Tiger. That's not going to cut it.
28. Zachary's new project promotes the website UnseenWarfare(dot)net. Zach is the only person I've seen promote this site.
29. In the About it says it's Justin Marler and that LLC is registered to Marler. The only Justin Marler that fits was a musician who went to a monastery for 7 years, but is now in Austin, TX. I couldn't find anything about their relationship.
30. Zach and his baby momma moved from Austin, TX to be near her family just northwest of Philadelphia, PA from what I can tell. He's probably working in a brewery and might even be in a band.
31. He's also probably attending an orthodox church in the area.
Whatever he's doing I assume his racism and bigotry are leading him to try and red pill people. Philly and Lehigh Valley, eyes open for Zach.
1. Chris Monzon made news recently for being attacked while canvassing for Marco Rubio. Here I'll present old FB posts from him that I haven't seen in the reporting and other new info on him. Starting with some rare photos of Chris.
2. I've highlighted some text I found important, but much of what isn't is also important. After reading hundreds of his posts from 2010-2015 I was stunned and I was well aware of Christopher Monzon aka Chris Cedeno. HUGE Content Warning.
3. He believes murdering black people isn't just justifiable; it's the path to heaven.
1. Another #IgniteTheRight thread identifying yet another UTR attendee. Meet Identity Dixie member Ryan Charles Tuggle, last known to reside in St. Augustine, FL.
2. Ryan used to go by "Braxton Bragg on Facebook and Twitter. He deleted everything when he was exposed as an identity dixie member 2 years ago.
What's new is confirming his attendance at UTR.
3. Ryan Tuggle attended the August 11, 2017 tiki torch "Jews will not replace us" march on the University of Virginia. In the photo on the right you can see Ryan on the far right, almost off frame.
1. I'm happier than a cottonmouth under a log to introduce you to Marshall Clayton Rawson and his wife Megan Elise Rawson of North Florida. The attended the deadly 2017 UniteTheRight rally in Charlottesville, VA with League of the South.
2. Marshall has been with the League of the South hate group for closing in on a decade. His faithful wife has been beside him nearly the whole time. Let's meet them.
3. We've been sitting on this one for a spell, so make yourself a mint julep and rest your bones under a shady magnolia while we lay this one out for you.
1. White supremacists work in nearly every profession in America. Some jobs make their beliefs much more dangerous: Cops, military personnel, teachers, and healthcare professionals are among the most problematic.
2. In professions like those, the ability for racists and bigots to translate their beliefs into great damage is outsized.
Tonight I must put a bright light one one such person. Meet former Identity Dixie member Lauren Wendy Blasco.
3. Lauren Wendy Blasco was the Identity Dixie member that created the Florida chapter, named "Florida Crackers".
1. I'm happier than an alligator on a river log to introduce you to White Plains, MD fascist Hitler-loving farmer and possible Identity Dixie member George Calvin DeMarr(approx 37).
2. I can't prove George DeMarr was in Identity Dixie, but he loves their memes, likes Musonius Rufus, and used the Identity Dixie magnolia on his Facebook page.
Regardless of his status with them, he deserves this.
3. George really didn't make it hard to tie his accounts together.
1. By the beginning of March 2017 three former @txst students affiliated with @YALTxSt joined the TX Facebook chat of Identity Dixie called Lone Star Hate, including their recent past President @EnzoQuesada5
2. The Facebook chat was started by Identity Dixie founder and leader Bret Keylon Lynn aka Musonius Rufus right before the broke out from TRS. Identity Dixie is an SPLC listed hate group.
3. Bret Lynn was host of the TRS Confederates podcast called Rebel Yell. TRS Confederates broke off from TRS around the 20th of January 2017 to form Identity Dixie.
