Another #astroturf organization intended to "crack and frack" demographic groups in the US.
Shared fonts (Big Calson).
Shared state (Florida).
Shared focus (Right wing politics). #rightwingwatch
Oh, and a shared fascination with nonsense from Mr. James Lindsay, it appears.
There is some room to expand, I suppose, from "Marxism" & "CRT" (schools) to "Communism" (China) when it comes to manufacturing fear and outrage.
#Asians4Liberty seems to play into fears of "The Great Reset" and things like the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and lobby group The World Economic Forum (WEF).
It attempts to tap into fear of global government.
I'll see your sovereign citizen and raise you one nation!
I think I misidentified the shared font in the #Asians4Liberty and #Moms4Liberty logos in a previous post. This one looks right (but that's just me trying to dot the 'i's' and cross my 't's' on my Hebrew Vilna Std Black font). 2/6
When you see tweets from #Moms4Liberty, #Asians4Liberty and retweets from #SovereignNations, all regarding recently d̵e̵c̵e̵a̵s̵e̵d̵ account-cancelled James Lindsay you begin to wonder, "what's up with that?" 3/6
There is a rich seam to be explored looking into these organizations.
So much of what is now manifesting as "Christian Nationalism" emanates from #Florida, for some ᴰᵉˢᵃⁿᵗᶦˢ reason. It's like some sort of Christian Nationalist Triangle is emerging there. 4/6
Again, a lot to dig into and explore, but the links between #Asians4Liberty, #SovereignNations and #NewDiiscourses are interesting and certainly run through Michael O'Fallon.
It'd be interesting to find more connections to the #M4L side of things besides the shared font. 5/6
This 2019 article on "Christian Nationalists" and Michael O'Fallon will be a place to start. crcc.usc.edu/rns-richard-fl… 6/6 (... for now)

As #MomsforLiberty's brand dips into free fall, the Midwest is seeing some shape shifting among Moms for Liberty #Ozaukee, #AwakeWI and #AwakeIL into #AwakeAmericans. 1/9
#AwakeAmericans appears to be a merger of #AwakeIL and #AwakeWI, with several right wing agitators known to activists in their respective areas.
There is excellent work being done tracking these groups, for example:
2/9
It has not escaped notice that other domains have been secured using a similar naming convention. This might be a hypothesis that doesn't lead anywhere, of course, but #AwakeMI was created minutes after #AwakeWI. 3/9
2/ Your party bullied schools into doing the same. Politicians sent letters to superintendents pressuring them to open, while right-wing groups generated outrage among parents. upnorthnewswi.com/2020/08/04/rea…
3/ Dark-money funded right-wing lobbyists worked with so-called conservative law firms to overturn public health policies, further hampering our collective response to the pandemic, undoubtedly making it worse in the long run. urbanmilwaukee.com/pressrelease/s…
