A few months ago I posted a thread in this subreddit exposing a pipeline of radical white nationalist researchers that have been attempting to infiltrate the academic space, specifically the genetic and cognitive research fields.

It had a massive reception in this sub and had been viewed over 100,000 times. Pretty good for a niche community.

Overlapping on Hope not Hate’s work, this thread showcased how the modern online HBD movement that has amassed million of followers on X, is being actively astroturfed by a specific set of accelerationist minded oligarchs.

A concerted effort involving Musk, Thiel, Marc Andreeson, and an assortment of other political/financial/academic actors that have been curating an ecosystem to radicalize swathes of the population and using X/Twitter as the outlet. This network of “researchers” being connected to a Nazi eugenics program stemming back to Nazi germany. How they have rebranded and reshaped their operations over the decades - and in the modern landscape, how they have been utilizing our digital infrastructure to propagate their framing on race and IQ.

One of the individuals I mentioned was Nathan Cofnas, and if you haven’t been involved in the news recently - Nathan Cofnas is the man that targeted Jason Arday with the hit piece that broke mainstream media. What Cofnas didn’t understand is that in his witch hunt against Arday, he overplayed his hand and showed in real time that the astroturf campaign was very real. Literally textbook to how it was described in my thread.

Cofnas releases the piece, the hyper specific HBD crowd (with their artificially inflated reach) spammed the feeds with the story knowing that the manipulated X algorithm would artificially push the story to millions, then the eventual Elon Musk “single word reply” came - ensuring that Cofnas and his story would reach peak visibility to hundreds of millions. Then the dogpile reached maximal velocity.

Jason Arday is dead because he was targeted by this group and used as fodder to propel their agenda. He served as low hanging fruit for these propagandists to repackage their genetic deterministic racial elitism under the guise of an “Anti-DEI” movement - when reality is it served as a way for Cofnas to try and mainstream himself.

As stated in my thread and by HnH’s investigative work, Nathan Cofnas was recommended by Emil Kirkegaard to Peter Thiel in a one on one meeting, where Thiel was looking for individuals to prop up.

Cofnas since then has become a key player in the HBD network, the same network that has connections to the 1940 era Nazi eugenics program. The same network being funded by Thiel and Musk. The same network being artificially amplified.

Cofnas is now under the spotlight and as a result, many of the journalists interested in the Arday/Cofnas story have come across both mine and HNH’s work exposing Nathan Cofnas as a member of this syndicate.

Byline released this report yesterday that is lock and step with what HnH and I have been describing.

What started off as a random anonymous Reddit thread, and a HnH investigation that was memory holed by many, this work is now been used as a main data piece to expose the operation behind Cofnas. The mainstream is picking up on it.

As such, I wanted to thank this community specifically. The thread could have been deleted, you could have dismissed it as a “conspiracy”, but instead you gave a random Redditor your good faith. So here we are now - at the precipice of blowing the top off this entire operation. THANK YOU!

Derrick used to go on about milk but I always thought it was too many calories/sugar for what you need to drink - like I’m not drinking 250 ML for 12g of sugar. Lactose hurt the stomach.

Been drinking a liter of this day for like a month, and I swear to god all of my lifts are going up like crazy - no stomach issues, not getting chunky just lean muscle growth / and overall I just feel way better energy wise. 4g of sugar per serving. No artificial sweeteners and random Israeli derived ingredients

Milk is OP, but this is super OP

TL;DR - The shooters manifesto is a means to offload a specific ideological framework that was formed and created by far-right Nazi accelerationists who have infiltrated incel subculture. The framing of specific talking points - genetic determinism, misogyny and the focus on “capital” and “elite class” (bourgeoisie in this manifesto) is what gives it away.

Do not be fooled by the “communist motivations” portrayal from media at the moment. Irony-poisoning is meant to confuse the reader on ideological consistency, while still getting across the radical agenda points across.

Neo Nazis are largely anti capitalist at the extreme end -

“Within the neo-Nazi movement, Third Positionists argue that modern capitalism exploits the working class, enriches global financial elites, and erodes racial/national identity, advocating instead for an ethnically homogeneous society supported by a nationalized or heavily regulated economy.”

These Neo-Nazi Accelerationists operate by curating manifestos that are purposely made to confuse the reader, incorporating various different irony-pilled ideological elements to distract from the real motivation. When you compare the framing in this manifesto to others, the ideological consistency is clearly visible.

————————

Unfortunately there is a lot of context that I can’t lay out for you in a singular reddit thread. I investigate radical internet ecosystems and have specifically been investigating a decentralized network of Neo-Nazis that have been using the internet to recruit and radicalize.

Neo-Nazi accelerationism, learn what it is.

Learn how they co-opt Incel and Nihilist online spaces to recruit individuals into mass acts of violence.

This attack is a copy-cat attack meant to spread the framing of the manifestos contents - similar attacks -

Brenton Tarrant — Christchurch mosque shootings (New Zealand), March 15, 2019 — 51 deaths.

Patrick Crusius — El Paso Walmart shooting (Texas, USA), August 3, 2019 — 23 deaths.

Robert Bowers — Pittsburgh Tree of Life synagogue shooting (Pennsylvania, USA), October 27, 2018 — 11 deaths

Payton Gendron — Buffalo Tops supermarket shooting (New York, USA), May 14, 2022 — 10 deaths. en.wikipedia.org

Dylann Roof — Charleston church shooting (South Carolina, USA), June 17, 2015 — 9 deaths (retroactively glorified as a “Saint”). en.wikipedia.org

For further context, a few months ago I created a thread showing these same Neo-Nazi accelerationists attempting to hi-jack the cognitive and genetic research fields, being funded by billionaires who also subscribe to this Neo-Nazi accelerationist framework.

That thread is linked below and got great reception in r/cognitivescience, so I’m hoping you can use the legitimacy of what I claimed in that thread and give my post here some trust.

To sum it up,

Much of the “race science” and “women are causing our extinction” pseudo-science being propagated on the mainstream web right now, can be attributed to the network I expose in that thread.

These individuals are connected to a broader, decentralized network of accelerationists who are attempting to dissolve global social cohesion. The point is to radicalize swathes of men, specifically young white men, into perceiving women/jews/minorities as the enemy.

Inceldom is simply a moniker to co-opt, and incel spaces are prime recruiting grounds for these accelerationists. Indirectly or directly brainwashing and radicalizing just through exposure of the rhetoric.

Hundreds of decentralized, online nodes that subscribe to a specific ideological doctrine. All with different ways of how they try to propagate the ideology.

The manifestos of these shootings typically have a consistent doctrine.

If you look at the root of the messaging across the dozens of manifestos and connected shootings -

- Great replacement propaganda
- Hatred for women
- Hatred for Jews
- Distaste for minorities/non-whites
- societal blame
- genetic determinism/“race realism”

and so on.

The idea behind these attacks is to ensure widespread attention to these texts - but what many people don’t realize is that these manifestos are largely plagiarized from early internet Neo-Nazi forums. These copy-cat like attackers are just perpetuating propaganda that was curated online decades ago, repackaged over the years.

All of the framing is literal Nazi ideology meant to radicalize the reader. The framing is supposed to be convincing to specifically young depressed men.

Here is a study showing how Breiviks and Gendrons manifestos were essentially copy paste from sites like Stormfront (early internet Nazi forum)

The San Diego Mosque shooting a couple weeks back was the exact same thing, except it was children who were caught up in this pipeline.

I just want to get this out there before people run with the “he was just an incel angry at women!”. It’s so much deeper than that.
