NOBODY is talking about how the online depression community has been infiltrated by alt-right recruiters deliberately preying on the vulnerable.
There NEED to be public warnings about this. 'Online pals' have attempted to groom me multiple times when at my absolute lowest.

The common railroad stages of 'helpful' linking to 'motivational speakers' goes 'Jordan Peterson ---> Stefan Molyneux ---> Millennial Woes. The first is charismatic and not as harmful, but his persuasiveness leaves people open for the next two, who are frankly evil and dumb.
People in these communities are often drowning in despair and susceptible to corruption by charismatic, lucid evil offering them what seems like the only lifeline. I know nobody reads my tweets, but I hope somebody stumbles on this and second guesses their influences.
The alt-right offer people with absolutely nothing a sense of a loving 'extended family' and give the directionless a sense of spiritual destiny. The truth is that their ideas are brain poison to depressed and anxious and will exacerbate all your symptoms.
I have seen vulnerable people melt into paranoid messes through this stuff, and their 'friends' do not care. The happy figureheads of these communities (Spencer, etc) are the bullshit frontage. Read the chat or comment section and you will find nothing but utterly broken souls.
Mark Collett and his goons destroy depressed people's lives while offering them a friend and a lifeline. Be aware. Be safe.
Yes, it didn't work on me, but I'm not anything special and can easily imagine that if they got me at a certain stage in my life I would have yielded. It starts SO seemingly harmless. Everything is buried under layers of subterfuge and euphemism until grooming is complete.
I cannot help but feel people like Sargon, Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, Lauren Southern and Styxhexenhammer are ABSOLUTELY aware their videos are FREQUENTLY used as alt-right primers in online communities of lonely, anxious young men. How could they POSSIBLY not be?
I was invited to a Discord server after expressing general depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. It soon became clear it was an alt-right mob. I don't mean gamer liberals with Pepe avatars. I mean Jonathan Bowden fanatics, Anders Breivik supporters and ethnostate advocates.
The racism conversations were worked towards first by bashing 'mainstream religion', which amounted to a lot of talk about Muslims and then 'globalism'/big business', which amounted to a lot of talk about the Jews.
To be clear, I don't think Peterson is alt-right, but he IS directly funded and exploited by them. A primary gateway to their message. He's 'their guy'. I found him to be a very captivating talker initially. The man has a charming intensity about him and can be humorous.
He has an inspiring manner about him – fatherly. The panacea of his message is that meaningless, depressing, isolating society stems from shadowy 'neo-Marxist' cabals. From this exact conclusion the alt-right then led me to 'cultural Marxism', an antisemitic conspiracy theory.
The next step in my alt-right red pill crash course was Stefan Molyneux. Unlike Peterson, I didn't fall under his spell. He spoke like a cult leader. I was left wondering what the fuss about this Phil Mitchell lookalike motherfucker was all about.
One of the subsections for the Discord was the war room. Organised action merely amounted to the mass down voting of 'SJW' interviews or media trailers
People may be wondering how I could just hang with fascists like that if I wasn't one of them...
When the very pit of one's stomach is full of utter revulsion for the universe and being alive, numbness consumes all. I wasn't attracted to fascism, but I was ambivalent about it. This is fundamental to how they ensnare (some) depressives.
A bunch of the group planned on attending the now infamous Charlottesville rally. It was sold as a Unite the Right rally for everybody against political correctness rather than an exclusively alt-right rally, so many of the 'normies' were interested in going for the social aspect
Again, this is how they operate. 'We will be friends with you.' That can be an immeasurably powerful statement for people. Most of these young men were mildly above average in intelligence and shared the same nerdish hobbies. For some it was their only chance at a social life.
An 'alt-right dating group' was formed.
Everybody was male. After about 30 men posted their bios, the group died.

Millennial Woes was to be my big red pill moment. People were so excited to hear my reactions to seeing his videos that they logged in specifically, having followed my initiation for a while.
This excitement about me was not something I was accustomed to and made me feel wanted. It was one of the primary reasons for me sticking with the group. They were funny, a bit dangerous and LIKED me. Hurray. Warm feelings. Little by little I grew to depend emotionally on them.
MW is the most cherished member of the Brit alt-right. Woes' audience are, to be blunt, outcasts. Loners. Depressives. Like myself. He was spoke of as some genius thinker, but I found his oration skills to be VERY poor and his vids dull and meandering.
Over Xmas, every day for 30 (or so?) days he interviewed somebody from the community. A few of these were Discord group members with small YT alt-right channels. They were so happy, and everybody was so happy for them. A sincere bond of friendship binds these lonely people.
The state of my depression was so all-encompassing that I viewed their fascism with detachment, but I admit I had grown to pity and even like some of them. I didn't understand racial pride or national pride, but I understood depression, loneliness and alienation.
The ones I truly disliked were the higher ups. The groomers. Those who lured people to these communities not to 'save' them, but to make up the numbers. The bullshit scare tactics. The nonsensical promises. Mark Collett is one of these people. I grew to despise him.
The alt-right primarily organise on Discord servers. Hundreds of people. Many view Stormfront as 'Nazi LARPers' ruining the 'optics' of the movement. No, the alt-right plan and work in secret. Alt-right videos often aren't for the alt-right. They're to PROMOTE the alt-right.
How do you get an invite to alt-right Discord servers? They deliberately target lonely, disenfranchised young men. They have strategies. 'Best Jordan Peterson video to red pill a normie?' was a three day discussion.
Richard Spencer morbidly intrigued me because he seemed so grotesque, campy, ridiculous.. A bloated Crispin Glover trotting across the world stage and effeminately declaring himself the peak of western masculinity. WTF?
I'm a huge fan of campiness and the aesthetic of the diva, so I admit to having slightly enjoyed Richard Spencer at these times, but make no mistake, he is a profoundly irresponsible, immoral and manipulative man. I STRONGLY suspect he isn't a true believer of his cause.
Yes, you picked up on the ingenious homoerotic subtext of the last few tweets. Well done. I am perhaps not the sort of person these folk would like in their ethnostate. Let's move on...
Right now – yes, right now – there are separate online communities of hundreds of nerds plotting the absolute best way to get people to their cause. The overall number of active alt-right regulars numbers in the tens of thousands, though level of involvement varies wildly.
Mark Collett's video on how to beat depression. Sedate, friendly and offering support, telling people if they would like to know more to read his book. The name of his book? THE FALL OF WESTERN MAN.
One I have seen a lot lately.Varg Vikernes' cure for depression comes with soothing, relaxing music. Mostly awkward pseudo-science then he drops the eugenics bomb.
I was hesitant about posting these as I was worried about giving them attention or showing them to vulnerable people, but hopefully if you read this far you'll know this is all a scam. I wanted to show further examples of the far right specifically targeting depressed people.
A really bad break up with a girlfriend a few years earlier had left me with a bitterness about future romantic pursuits, which they frequently tried to tap into in order to manipulate me. I was routinely told my ex was an evil feminist and that MGTOW was my ideal path.
Hanging with the alt-right for hours everyday ultimately failed to influence my ideas on race, relationships or socialist policies (I voted Corbyn around this time), but through links to 'moderates' (!) Peterson and Shapiro my view of trans people was slowly and subtly altered.
Many people who view trans people as freaks to be bullied in order to preserve the moral purity of society know their message is unpalatable to a lot of people, so the debate is insidiously framed as a free speech one in order to alter the narrative.
This is again a method of 'normie priming'. There is a LOT of pretentious mind-maze pontificating about free speech, but beneath it is a firm root of hatred for people for how they look and behave. When I realised the way I framed the debate had been influenced I was scared.
I'm REALLY sorry to hear people think I'm trying to drown out others' experiences with a white male bias. My average like for a tweet prior to this was 0 or 1. My social experience is very limited as I can count my friends on half a hand and have no close ones. I'll be quiet now.
I am NOBODY. I hate myself. I agree with the criticism. I made this thread in the vain hope some young gamer guy looking up Peterson, Sargon, Styx, etc. might find it and then have their guard up. The gaming community is rife with rabbit holes for lonely young men to fall down.
Jordan Peterson isn't alt-right, but there's a REASON at least hundreds of white nationalists are giving him a minimum of ten dollar donations PER MONTH. People in the alt-right communities openly tagged who they donated to as a point of pride. It's huge.
No. I am NOBODY. I legit want to be dead soon. I just had to warn people, and I hope people who are smarter than I am and more articulate than I am can get to the answers of why this is happening and how to stop it because I see it as an existential nightmare on the RISE.
Self-obsessed ASSHOLES such as Sargon and Warski (who the alt-right view as useful FUCKING morons) exploit this crisis for fame. I do not deserve or crave a platform. Take the information I give and spread it yourselves, PARTICULARLY to young men with autism, depression or ADHD.
Young men with autism, depression or ADHD are DELIBERATELY targeted as ripe for 'priming', which is how this escaped far right-centric sites and took over the chan boards and finally mainstream sites such as YouTube. Before I'm gone I want this all known.
This world is not for me, but before I leave I wanted to help others escape unnecessary, wasteful or needless suffering, whether it's neurodivergent prospective recruits to the alt-right or the many victims of the alt-right and their violent dream for the world.
Isolated and alone and neurodivergent people with few/no friends are often drawn to fantasy worlds, and this is what the alt-right present to them for the 'big reveal'. A mythical fantasy Middle Earth land for white people. I thought this was stupid and immoral, but many didn't.
If I hadn't had the specific life experiences, even in my alien waste of a life, of friendship from non-whites, LGBT people or whatever then it is very possible I may have fallen for the big reveal, but many were even more isolated than I had been.
The incandescent Tolkien fantasy land utopia blinds many at the bottom of the alt-right to the reality of how such a 'perfect' vision is to be created, which is through harassment, intimidation, deportation and, if necessary, extinction of ethnic minorities & other 'degenerates.'
I despise this world I was born into, but the alt-right want to make it MUCH. WORSE. The sheer INCOMPETENCE of the media in tackling them or their BULLSHIT 'centrist' enablers is infuriating to me. It should not take some fucking walking corpse like me to have to explain this.
I DO NOT want a platform as alt-rightsploitation by FAME HUNGRY centrist cunts like those named above is something I despise. For people looking for intelligent, CONSIDERED commentary on the ideas expressed, see @ContraPoints, @Hbomberguy, @shaun_jen, @SamSeder and @KyleKulinski
End of thread. Thanks so much for reading. I didn't expect more people than my two friends and some ad bots to see this. It has especially made me a little happier knowing that parents or friends who can identify the early signs in friends have seen this.
