I keep getting messages asking "did you know Richard Spencer says he's changed? What are your thoughts?"
I don't have time to break it down more fully at the moment, so to tide you over for when I do, I'll touch on my assessment of his new stance below as briefly as I can:
No.

1) Yes, fascists can leave and become a force for good, but
2) Sines v Kessler was decided in Nov. 2021
3) After a lifetime of fascism, fascists aren't going to be changed enough in a year and a half for you to platform responsibly
4) No real former would attempt point 3

A lot of these "Richard Spencer has changed" views appear to stem from his apparent concern for economic issues, wtf?

Richard Spencer spent a lifetime not just in the movement, but actively building the movement.
The alt-right lost favor, white supremacists started calling him gay, and kicked him out of the Swastika Knitting Circle.
Then he got his $ ass handed to him in 2021's civil suit.

Richard Spencer was still devoted to white supremacist nonsense in November 2021, when he (caveat: "attempted" to) defended himself in the civil lawsuit filed over Charlottesville's Unite The Right.
Don't believe me?

Finally, Richard Spencer's schtick from the beginning was "I want my ethnostate so I'll try and hide my Genocide Boner with a rebrand," so if you managed to miss that, I guess your ADHD is even worse than mine.
But to recap, again:
No.

Back to work.
Postscript:
Richard Spencer should, in fact, face skepticism that “a leopard can’t change its spots.”
But if that fascist leopard shaved its fashy spotted haircut (or, say, grew out his hair post-skinhead days cough Schoep cough), it’d be a start.
“Rebrand” and whatnot.

That last Tweet was 100% a not-subtle subtweet, but Amy is dead on point here, as per usual.
Credible ex-fascists (yes, there are some) do the work for decades before seeking platforms (if ever), and understand damn well why and if targeted communities won’t ever believe them.
