X’s subscriptions program is small, and accounts are typically added slowly, but in the past day there’s been a big batch of far-right additions, including several people who have a history of posting explicitly Nazi content.

First post on BSky and here we go: NC Board of Ed member Olivia Oxendine apparently provided training to NC chapter chairs of extremist group Moms for Liberty. There should be some stipulation that if serve on the State BOE, you can’t train anti-public school extremists. But again, it is NC.

In contrast, you can often (not always) find hierarchical / financial influence in right wing "grassroots" activism. It allows the left to be much more effective at mapping their movements. The right isn't as dimensional, and it leaves a trail of breadcrumbs. bsky.app/profile/soca...

The reason they do such a terrible job mapping how the left works is bc they can't fathom thinking outside of financial & hierarchical models. Throw-in the fact that the trip-up for otherwise intelligent people on right is their weakness for conspiracies, & you end up w absurd stories like this one.

Deus Vult. Bringing the Crusades home. Reconquista. Reclaim America. These are Hegseth themes.

Sphere Walker @spherewalker.bsky.social · 11/12/2024

I'm tellin' ya. Hegseth's desire to purge the ranks down to a Gideon army sure reads a lot like sorting out who will be compliant towards violence against an "enemy within". www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a scholar of military authoritarians, believes Hegseth can accomplish a lot without traditional bureaucratic levers. "I see him as a bridge to radicalizing the military," she told me. "If you're planning a fundamental reorientation of the military - and you're going to go past the third rail of deploying against Americans - you have to really shift the whole mentality, shift the culture, permit radicalization. Already, I think we're pretty far down the road."

Hegseth, for his part, feels he can accomplish a lot with a little. In his book The War on Warriors, he draws inspiration from the biblical story of Gideon, a military leader who led a pared-down force of 300 hardcore believers to a decisive victory over an army of thousands. Hegseth notes that Gideon was imperfect, and fell prey to personal vengeance, but that he ultimately enjoyed divine grace and was named one of the heroes of the faith. "When we maintian our covenant, we are Gideon," he concluded. "God on our side, heroism and victory in our future."

Portland Police Chaplain Clyde Lewis is an activist against LGBTQ+ rights and self-proclaimed prophet. He's also really into the idea imagining grown women being birthed and the "crowning" of their heads in a royal divine vagina. He's transphobic, homophobic, and really really weird.
