What’s going on at #AsatruFolkAssembly? Purge? Implosion? BOTH. One member fears they’ll lose the best thing they had since — and we’re not making this up — the Third Reich. @SPLC @ADLSoutheast Image 2 sets of hate mongers, lotsa fingerpointing. Version 1: #AsatruFolkAssembly leader knowingly allowed a convicted sex offender to join #Wisconsin chapter, and is now purging ranks. Version 2: Disloyal members use situation as pretext for starting breakaway group. Image

He's, uhhm, deprived. 3/21: Ashby (center) was elevated to AsFA folkbuilder by the groups leader Matt Flavel during an event in NC. Given his post, he's likely involved in securing permanent location in #Florida. They were close. Several days ago, Flavel announced their bank pulled out. #LoveWins
