Thread by @WhiteRoseSocAU

We're ending the year with our identification of Glenn Logan of Feminism Debunked trending. Here's a "best of" thread of our work this year 🧵

In January we worked with Mike Hohnen, @BenHillier16 and antifascists around Australia to cancel the tour of fascist and Nazi Black Metal bands Taake and Akhlys.

We contributed some research and writing to this excellent article by @BenHillier16 in Blunt Magazine on the Taake and Akhlys tour and the importance of denying the stage to bands like this in the metal scene.

February we worked with @hannahgais and @jason_a_w to expose online activities of Atomwaffen Division founder Brandon Russell after his release from prison and leading up to his re-arrest on terrorism charges for plotting attacks against infrastructure.

March 2023 saw the real identity of Terrorgram's "Miss Gore" exposed by powerhouses @LCRWnews and a coalition of researchers. We provided our archives on Dallas Humber, including her letters to neo-Nazi mass murderers Dylann Roof and Brenton Tarrant. leftcoastrightwatch.org/articles/heres…

Dallas Humber was also exposed in this article by @letsgomathias, it turns out we had archived a key piece of information that led to confirming her identity: her cat, Fluffies.

Also in March, we worked with @ageinvestigates to expose the real identity of the leader of National Socialist Network in QLD, Gabe Seymour, Victorian member Nathan Bull, as well as neo-Nazis serving in the ADF.

Our blog post on Gabe Seymour, the QLD leader of the National Socialist Network, can be read here thewhiterosesociety.writeas.com/gabe-seymour-q…

In March speakers from Kellie-Jay Keen's Let Women Speak tour falsely claimed that the neo-Nazis who attended their rally in support were undercover police or trans activists. @camweronwilson reported our identifications of them as prominent Nazis here. crikey.com.au/2023/03/20/kel…

Our expose of National Socialist Network member and serial harasser and pest Nathan Bull was republished here by the Herald Sun. Bull's police officer father has since disowned him.

We published with David Killick of The Mercury on the National Socialist Network's Tasmanian cell Tasman Forth and their activities in Tasmania. We will be publishing more on this group in the new year.

April saw the Herald Sun write up our identification of several National Socialist Network members in Melbourne including Brodie Potts, Will Casdorff, Michael Nelson ("Mickle") and Ethan Hendren.

We also published with @joeyhwatson on AWD founder Brandon Russell's activities in Australian neo-Nazi Telegram chats run by NSN's Jimeone Roberts and Stefan Eracleous. Russell shared terrorist instructional manuals and propaganda from proscribed groups. theguardian.com/australia-news…

In May we published with @davidestcourt on ‘Breadcrumbing’: How Melbourne’s neo-Nazis target political causes to garner support archive.md/dF28G

In July @cameronwilson published our findings of the Christchurch attack livestream on Twitter and how long it took Twitter/X to remove it. Since then, terrorist attack footage, gore and murder videos have spread like a virus on this platform. crikey.com.au/2023/07/04/elo…

At the end of July @SimoneFoxKoob and @benschneiders published this article, drawing on our research about Croatian sporting clubs with fascist links receiving millions in government grants.

In August we identified the unsuspecting Altona RSL as the venue where National Socialist Network held a meeting to give lectures on Nazism and "Heil Ben Roberts-Smith", published by @davidestcourt. archive.md/YtR1u

In September we contributed to this 7.30 Report segment by @begley_patrick on American white supremacist Elijah Schaffer's appearance at CPAC and his history of racial vilification. abc.net.au/news/2023-09-1…

We’d like to note that Elijah Schaffer’s racism against Aboriginal people was so extreme and violent that it couldn’t be printed. Schaffer is a January 6 insurrectionist hiding out in Australia and hanging out with neo-Nazis like Joel Davis. He lives in Tweed Heads.

We commented in September to @jadeetoomey for this article on the O'Connor Knights in Canberra posing with a portrait of Ustaše leader Ante Pavelić and how this normalises the denial of genocide.

ABC Investigations published our extensive OSINT in October, identifying NSN members Jimeone Roberts and Stefanos Eracleous as the creators of a menacing video threatening Senator Thorpe. Neither have been charged. abc.net.au/news/2023-10-1…

Neither Roberts or Eracleous have been charged over this second video and Jimeone Roberts is yet to be charged over the first video (Stefan Eracleous has been) despite it being filmed in his backyard.

This month we provided previously unseen footage to aid @cameronwilson's investigation into the Antisemitic chants at the Sydney Opera House. crikey.com.au/2023/12/19/new…

Thank you followers old and new, including comrades who generously gave to our fundraiser a few months ago to allow us to continue this work sustainably.

We'd also like to thank everyone who sends tip-offs. Given the continued unreliability of Twitter/X, the best way to contact us is by e-mail (in our bio). See you in 2024!

We almost forgot! Back in July we assisted our friends at @AnonComrades in unmasking incredibly prolific and unbelievably racist troll Kasandra Mileusnic of South Australia. accollective.noblogs.org/post/2023/07/1…
