PSA @NDSU community/greater Fargo ND: Nick Olien is a fascist white supremacist who org’d the failed Fargo White Lives Matter rally in April ‘21; was a member of Patriot Front in '20 w/plans to rejoin in summer ‘22; & has posted fascist flyers for the past year+. Thread:

“Nick O”/”Nick” is a current active member of a white supremacist/separatist Telegram channel. In this channel, he’s posted several things that help confirm his identity as a @NDSUEngineering student and native Fargo resident.

Back on Apr 19 ‘21, “Nick” complained about a statue of Jesus Christ that was vandalized in “my town” (after having already told us he lives in ND). That happened in Fargo.

Days earlier, “Nick O” was big mad that *checks notes* the 2-person WLM rally he claimed to have org’d was deplatformed by local Black Lives Matter activists. “I was disheartened to see that only 2 out of 20 of us made it…” That also happened in Fargo.

And in the telegram channel history, a deleted account had id'd themself as "Nick Olien from the Facebook group." By golly, Nick Olien from Fargo North Dakota had posted fascist propaganda to a FB group associated w/the Telegram channel.

Nick Olien continues his bigoted/fascist activism, esp by trying to radicalize his peers. He & a @NDSUathletics freshman football player who "fits the ideal Aryan stereotype" exchanged contact info. Olien: "This year my goal of networking is coming along at an astounding rate."

Nick Olien actively seeks advice re: how to gaslight, manipulate, & emotionally abuse women. If you are a woman in Nick’s life pls take care: you are not crazy; you are not wrong; your opinion matters; you should have full autonomy over your body & choices about your health.

Re the above: Pls reach out for more screenshots if needed. "Cheekiness" re: family planning/contraception is just one red flag.

Nick Olien is a construction engineering student at @NDSUEngineering w/plans to graduate in '24. Many faculty and staff are POC; be thoughtful when contacting to inform that a white nationalist is receiving accolades.

Neo-Nazi Nick Olien has recently attended Catholic mass within walking distance of his dorm and he likes to “train” w/airsoft weapons at Goose River Paintball.

Goose River (& other local fiels) may be interested to know that Nick Olien is using their fields to network and train for future violent subjugation of racial minorities, women, and lgbtqia ppl. Contact them at 701-610-6197/[e-mail]. facebook.com/gooseriverpain…

As a topper: Nick Olien from Fargo ND commented that he was “in with” Patriot Front in fall ‘20, left the org for a period, and intended to rejoin in Summer ‘22.

We haven't confirmed if Nick Olien has rejoined PF, or if he is “Victor ND” named here by @FashSmashing. He was not listed among those arrested in Coeur d’Alene in June, but did have early knowledge of their bail fund. @RoseCityAntifa @WANaziWatch

Nick Olien posted that he attended a white nationalist event with 30 attendees w/in days of the June 4 2022 white nationalist rally in Fargo co-organized by Peter Tefft and National Justice Party Nazis.

We haven’t been able to confirm if Nick Olien was one of the masked chuds out there coopting a the tragic murder of a young girl. But in addition to the above, we do know he is friends with local Nazi Tefft and has since made positive statements about NJP. Walks like a duck...

Nick Olien is outspoken re his white supremacist patriarchal goals for the future. Contributing to his sovereignty or success in any way is enabling his goal of a white mini-ethnostate that will use violence to maintain his and his fascist friends' version of an ideal society.

Finally, Fargo North Dakota: It's been inspiring digging into your community from afar and finding resistance to fascism and white supremacy very alive and very, very well there. New fan for life. Please reach out with any questions or followup. #wekeepussafe
