15.) And here's Trevor on August 18, 2018. Again, see the bulge on his right hip? (And if you zoom in, you can see he's got a knife clipped to his pocket, too.)pic.twitter.com/nrDi8PD9MT

16.) And here's Trevor counterprotesting the May Day celebrations in Boston. The bulge here lacks the L-distinct shape, but he's definitely armed with something like a large knife or pepper spray.pic.twitter.com/qaM4By9WIv

17.) At 2:22 in this video (from the June 30 anti-ICE Keep Families Together protests), Trevor tries to charge some protesters and has to be pushed back by a cop. Watch his right hand:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFHW723KR8w&feature=youtu.be&t=142 …

18.) I made a GIF of it. Watch Trevor's right hand. As he goes to confront the cop, his right hand springs to his right hip. Even as he gesticulates wildly with his left, his right hand is rigid directly above his right hip.
@Boston_FS,@WeirdLittleBro, what is he reaching for?pic.twitter.com/GY3BymzDUwShow this thread -
19.) What we know about Trevor Carey so far-- he's masked, he's armed, posts on r/racewarpreppers, and he keeps his hand on his gun when he's talking to cops. But he also runs a Twitter and YouTube channel dedicated to misogyny.pic.twitter.com/5vmv6FgE73

20.) This is him, as "Chest Guy MGTOW":https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6Ql_wJr9M82NZZaBo8Ztlw …

21.) The videos are mostly about him being angry. Like in this video, where he sets up a fake Craigslist account looking to hire a sex worker. He's absolutely infuriated that a worker would try to negotiate the price and/or work conditions:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azTo0R03LFE …

23.) So what is "MGTOW"? It's short for "Men Going Their Own Way," one of the handful of loose groups that the
@SPLCenter has classed as "male supremacy":https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/ideology/male-supremacy …Show this thread -
24.) We don't talk about the links between fascism and patriarchy enough. But there's substantial ideological and material links between white nationalists, white supremacists, and men's rights activists.
Show this thread -
25.) First, the ideology-- the birthright entitlement, the biological determinism, the subspeciation of anyone outside their group, the disingenous victimhood at the hands of the state (or the wider culture), etc. This explainer goes into it:http://www.politicalresearch.org/2017/03/08/mobilizing-misogyny/ …

26.) Tactically, too.
#GamerGate, an explosion of male rage, was a testing ground for the tactics now used by the far-right. White cis male gamers positing themselves as victims, the suspicion of the mainstream media outlets, doxxing, harassment, etc. It's all there.Show this thread -
27.) One of the YouTube personalities who became famous during
#GamerGate was Sargon of Akkad, aka Carl Benjamin. He was a men's rights activist. He still does that, but lately, he's started talking about theories of racial intelligence. Eugenics, basically.Show this thread -
28.)
@datasociety just put out a report by Rebecca Lewis, "Alternative Influence: Broadcasting the reactionary right on YouTube," tracing the ties between mainstream conservative pundits and open white nationalists like Richard Spencer: https://datasociety.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/DS_Alternative_Influence.pdf …Show this thread -
29.) As you can see from diagram above-- from the excellent
@datasociety report-- Sargon stands right in the middle, serving to connect the optics-minded alt-lite with the open white nationalists of the alt-right.pic.twitter.com/6cUPfXaqQE

30.) For the argument in a nutshell,
@Kotaku had a good interview with Rebecca Lewis, the author of the report, yesterday: https://kotaku.com/how-youtube-fueled-the-anti-social-justice-movement-1829207455 …pic.twitter.com/BOPLvEVkee

31.) In fact, here's Sargon himself palling around with
@WeirdLittleBro, which is John Medlar's new Twitter handle since I exposed his fascist ties. In April, Medlar organized a Proud Boys rally in Concord, MA, with Sargon as a speaker:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zmm9nrIUzFk …Show this thread -
32.)
@Boston_FS gets along with Sargon because they serve largely the same purpose he does. They're an umbrella organization that serves to connect the disparate parts of the far right.Show this thread -
33.)
@Boston_FS connects the misogynistic MGTOWs like Trevor Carey with the white supremacist@PatriotFront_ members like Chris Hood and Matt Smaller and Proud Boys like John Medlar.Show this thread -
34.) How much more will it take to convince the media that
@Boston_FS is a hate group? Hey,@WeirdLittleBro, why is everyone you know a Nazi?Show this thread -
35.) And hey,
@Patreon-- can you cancel Trevor Carey's Patreon? He is literally using it just to make videos about what the@SPLCenter calles a "hate ideology":https://www.patreon.com/chestguyMGTOWShow this thread -
36.) </thread> Tagging some folks now that might appreciate this. If you'd RT and tag some of your friends, I'd appreciate it.

38.) And if you liked this, check out some other threads I've done exposing Boston-area fash, like last week, when I exposed
@Boston_FS member Matt Smaller as a white supremacist:https://twitter.com/i/moments/1038998774981578752 …Show this thread -

@WeirdLittleBro, aka John Medlar:https://twitter.com/i/moments/1039633653549150209 …Show this thread -
40.) Or when Matt Smaller tried to intimidate me with a fake account after I exposed him, and then he ran away to go piss his jeans:https://twitter.com/i/moments/1039765238088916992 …

41.) Anyway, it's been fun exposing some fascists from
@Boston_FS today. Stick around for next week-- I'll be coming after@Resist_Marxism, showing off their ties to violent white supremacists.Show this thread
