They didn't really found it. They just laundered more money and influence into it and rebranded slightly. It's still the same old #TantonNetwork eugenicists as ever.
But I guess now everybody knows what the fuck I have been trying to warn about all these years???
One of the first BBSes in San Diego, which was a hotspot for proto-social media in the 1980s and 1990s, was White Aryan Resistance BBS. The far right has always wanted to take over our communications. That's why moderation has always been important. timeline.com/white-supremac…
My self-assigned role back in the day was to troll the fuck out of suspected Nazis and pedophiles (but I repeat myself, heyooo) until they revealed themselves for what they truly were -- they were on a recruiting offensive back in those days. Once they busted out the n-word or a

I was just talking about how this is clearly being promulgated by the #TantonNetwork channels in order to offer the illusion of popular support. That's why that network exists, to launder disinfo and money. If you look at who is promulgating this and related narratives, it

and all the moist weird media wannabe creeps who egg them on
