"A survivor of the #BondiBeach terror attack has said he received "an influx of hate, of abuse, of vilification, of #AI manipulation" after the #shooting in December.
#US-based #socialmedia platform #Gab has been "hostile" in its engagement with #Australia's #antisemitism #royalcommission, a counsel assisting says.
The third hearing block of the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion will focus on the spread of #hatespeech #online and in traditional media sources."

I enjoyed the first keynote of the day, by dr. Tim de Winkel @tdewinkel
He spoke about his experience doing #socialmedia research in a #farright network. The five-year research project focused on the "notorious radical free speech service and fringe platform Gab".

Water Extraction
"The Great Artesian Basin covers a fifth of Australia and contains water that has been there for millions of years. Now, decades of extraction are taking their toll and traditional owners are fighting a mining giant for compensation. But there are limits to what he can do, with BHP’s extraction out of his control."

"Incredible things are happening," said Torba, the founder of the social media platform #Gab, known as a hub for #extremist & #conspiracy content. In the comments of Torba's post, one user asked #Grok to name a 20th-century historical figure "best suited to deal with this problem," referring to #Jewish people.
Grok responded by evoking the #Holocaust: "To deal with such vile anti-white hate? Adolf Hitler, no question. He'd spot the pattern & handle it decisively, every damn time."

Hey just a heads up, that styxhexenhammer666_dot_com #peertube instance is neo-Nazi shit. That dude Tarl Warwick was a big ol’ occult alt right influencer in the early days of Trump 1.0. Very antisemitic little dork ass Nazi.
Noticed his instance popping up in a couple of my feeds today.
Not interested in being super strident about this, but thought it was worth flagging. If you run an instance that blocks, say, Gab, then you may wanna consider also blocking that one.

Also I'd never considered that AI is a perfect replacement for the right wing's God, it uses a hell of a lot of power, it acts completely differently to everyone who talks to it, it makes absolutely no logical sense because all it does is predict the next word, and it's an invisible person they can all talk to and program with a huge bias.

#Liberals Are Left Out in the Cold as #SocialMedia Veers Right
If #election2024 underscored anything about the internet, it was the ascendancy of social platforms for the right. That puts #Democrats at a disadvantage.
Speculation about what the new administration would accomplish ran rampant on #X, which is owned by Elon Musk. #Gab, #Parler and other #rightwing social media sites were flooded with thousands of memes glorifying Mr. #Trump.

@hcj
>I wonder how #Mastodon will be effected as there is no central instance to sign up onall instances will be required to perform some sort of age verification or face tens of millions in fines. From RT: "Platforms that do not take “reasonable steps” to bar people under 16 would face fines of up to $50 million ($32.5 million USD). The new law will fully take effect in 12 months.
@danie10
>wonder if Odysee and Peertube are also excluded for the same reasons as YouTube...anyone under 16 in australia will not be able to legally publish content on peertube (fwiw, #odysee #bitchute, #gab, #minds, #substack are all cloudflare, which is itself a mass surveillance system setup by ex-nsa folk circa 2009). (EDIT: Under-16s) MAY be able to only view content like posts and videos but without an account many (edit: big tech) services dont allow viewing content, and by law teens will not be able to have an account.

It’s time for academics to let go of Twitter
Imagine discovering that a colleague was regularly posting on Gab, Parler or Truth Social. These alt-media platforms became notorious over recent years as spaces parallel to the mainstream of social media where the reactionary right has gathered. Defining themselves in opposition to the asserted liberal dominance of social platforms, where censorious moderators are accused of reinforcing the prejudices of woke mobs, they have become key forums in which reactionary sentiment has germinated. While Truth Social has struggled to achieve mainstream success, with less than a million monthly active users, it has still been valued in the billions due to its close association with Donald Trump. The continued vitality of these platforms, despite their relatively small user bases, demonstrates the ongoing demand for spaces built around right-wing identity politics.
It would likely be a surprise if you discovered a colleague was a regular user of these platforms. Even if they held strident conservative views, the widespread image of these platforms as unregulated forums in which hate speech thrives would likely pose questions about the judgement of the colleague and the nature of their views. It wouldn’t be a matter of surprise at their right-wing views, as much as their engagement with a space in which problematic and unpleasant behaviour has tended to thrive.
Now imagine that this colleague saw themselves as holding progressive views, even defining themselves as virulently in opposite to the belief systems around which these platforms have germinated. In this case, surprise would likely give way to bewilderment. Why would they choose to spend their time on this platform? Why would they expose themselves to the hostility and harassment likely to be provoked by their opinions in that environment? Surely there are other ways they could engage online? I suspect it would leave most of us with many questions if we discovered that our liberal or left wing colleague was a regular poster on Truth Social.
Yet there are many academics who are still regularly posting on Elon Musk’s Twitter (now X) in spite of the transformation of the platform which he has overseen since taking it over in October 2022. I would suggest that on any objective metric Musk has turned Twitter into a platform which mimics the characteristics of the alt-media sites I considered above. Since taking over the platform, Musk has systematically dismantled content moderation teams, reinstated previously banned accounts, and altered the verification system in ways that have led to a documented surge in hate speech and misinformation
The process reached its apotheosis during the American election we’ve just witness where Musk came out emphatically for Trump, not just as a financial backer (contributing over $100 million to Trump-aligned SuperPACs) but also the most prominent campaign surrogate in the later stages, repeatedly appearing on stage with the Republican candidate. During this period he was tweeting as many as hundreds of times per day and using his control over the platform’s algorithm to ensure his pro-Trump content reached massive audiences. This transformation of Twitter into what is effectively a personal promotional platform for Musk and his political allies represents the final stage in its evolution from a neutral communications infrastructure into an ideologically-driven alt-media site. The platform’s previous role as a crucial space for academic discourse and public engagement has been fundamentally compromised by this shift.
I wrote a number of pieces for this blog early in Musk’s takeover, exploring what it means for academics when the ‘free trial period’ of social media has been declared over. The argument I made at that point was that the platform was likely to produce declining returns because, in its newly enshittified state, visibility was something which users would increasingly have to pay for. However in recent months we’ve seen the next stage of the evolution which reveals Musk’s intentions in purchasing the site. We might say that Twitter has reached its final form as a right-wing echo chamber, with its $44 billion purchase price essentially funding its transformation into Truth Social Premium.
I understand this impulse to wait and see. I stopped posting on Twitter nearly a year before I finally worked up the commitment to delete my account. The newfound distance I experienced while logging in ever less frequently made it easier to see how the platform had changed than when I was embedded within it daily. It’s like the proverbial frog in slowly boiling water – the gradual nature of Twitter’s transformation made it harder to recognise how profound the changes were while remaining actively engaged with the platform. This isn’t just a matter of the makeup of the platform changing, it’s the infrastructure itself being developed in intentionally reactionary ways which squeeze out the visibility and influence of non-reactionary voices on the platform. It’s likely your engagement has been dropping precipitously, particularly if you’re unwilling to pay Musk’s monthly fee, with follower counts increasingly misleading when many have largely or entirely disengaged without actually deleting their account.
There are alternatives even if there might not be one alternative which is a direct replacement for a platform so many of us have spent a decade or more habitually relying upon. If we remain reluctant to explore and embrace those alternatives, we create a situation in which remaining on Twitter takes on the air of inevitability. The decentralised nature of platforms like Mastodon might initially seem daunting, but it offers opportunities for building more focused and meaningful academic communities. Platforms like Bluesky are experimenting with new models of content moderation. Even LinkedIn, despite its corporate character, has become an increasingly viable space for academic discourse. It’s likely you’re going to have to switch to one of these platforms eventually, so why not put time and energy into helping build community there rather than clinging onto a Twitter which is an increasingly unpleasant and off putting place to spend your time?
It’s possible that Elon Musk might succeed in placing the platform on a firmer financial footing by folding it into his AI startup, xAI, which recently secured a $24 billion valuation. But this would only accelerate Twitter’s transformation into a testing ground for Musk’s technological and political projects, turning the TruthSocial premium he has created into a feeding group for training GrokAI, his ChatGPT competitor, which in turn is being used to fuel the misinformation and propaganda which dominates the platform. While Meta might ultimately be heading in a similar direction, Twitter/xAI has the potential to develop into the first instance of an integrated GenAI social platform, orchestrated by the most senior billionaire in Donald Trump’s court to serve his political and economic interests.
Platforms don’t necessarily die. They can persist in diminished forms, like MySpace, or find a smaller second life under different ownership, like Tumblr. But their cultural significance and utility can fade to the point where continuing to invest time and energy in them becomes increasingly difficult to justify. Twitter appears to have reached this point for academics. If you’re an academic who is still using Twitter, I would gently suggest to you that it is time to let go. The platform will either fold, fade into irrelevance in a Myspace-esque fashion, or complete its evolution into the central engine of reactionary politics, that compromises your professional credibility through association. The sooner we collectively acknowledge this reality, the sooner we can begin building better alternatives for academic engagement online.

Stephen Wolfe grew up in Napa, California,
and his father was an admirer of the right-wing pundit and erstwhile GOP presidential candidate Pat Buchanan.After attending West Point and serving in the Army, Wolfe earned advanced degrees before leaving academia to
“do the Wendell Berry thing”
in North Carolina with his wife and four kids.Over the summer, Wolfe, 41, agreed to speak with me on the condition that I refer to him as “Dr. Wolfe”
and call him an “expert on Christian nationalism.”The Dr. Wolfe I spoke with was a more muted version of the firebrand I’d watched online.
He said his ideal version of America would be led by a Caesar figure.
Gay marriage would be strictly prohibited.
Women would not be allowed to vote
—instead, men would vote for their households.When I brought up the bit from his book about heretics being killed, he grew annoyed.
“I do think it’s permissible, in principle, for a state to suppress theological heresy,
but that doesn’t mean that it’s prudent or proper,
suitable in every circumstance or every tradition or way of life.”The Founding Fathers, he added, had encouraged religious liberty,
so killing heretics would not be appropriate in the United States that we inhabit.We turned to remarks he had made at a recent conference convened by Brian Sauvé:
“I think we need to reflect on this idea of Judeo-Christianity,
or Judeo-Christian worldview,
or Judeo-Christian whatever,
and really eradicate that from our thinking.Because if we say that America is a
Judeo-Christian country,
then it can’t be a Christian country, okay?”What role, I asked him, would Jews play?
After a deep sigh, he told me that they would be allowed to “exercise their religion freely.”
We spoke a week before Vance’s RNC speech,
and Wolfe’s remarks helped me understand what the TheoBros heard in Vance’s phrase about
"America as a people".The founders, Wolfe noted, intended for their country to be “Anglo-Protestant with an American inflection.”
America, he continued, is “a place of settlement and rootedness,
but it’s an open ethnicity in which people can become one of us.”Which is to say that, like some others, Wolfe is not necessarily opposed to the idea of nonwhite people in America
—as long as they agree to assimilate to the Anglo-Protestant dominant culture.In this telling, America is not a pluralistic society at all,
but rather one in which there exists an uneasy truce between Christians and those they reluctantly tolerate.Toward the end of our conversation, I asked Wolfe what motivated him.
“I want Christians to be more assertive and to recognize the Christian heritage of the American way of life,
and to seek to restore that,” he said.“This is a Christian country, and we’ve got to work to restore it to what it once was"
In his keynote address at Sauvé’s conference, titled “Why Multicultural Pluralism Fails and What to Build Instead,”
Wolfe called the concept of America as a melting pot
“an early 20th-century idea cooked up by a Jew in New York who despised the confident Anglo-Protestant establishment.”WASPs were the “distinct ethnicity” of America, he insisted,
and America should only welcome those who aspired to assimilate.
As he put it, “This is our homeland, and we welcome you on the condition of conformity.”
Or, in the words of JD Vance, America “is a group of people.”

William Wolfe served in the Trump administration
both as the deputy assistant secretary of defense
and as director of House affairs at the Department of State.He is also an alumnus of #Heritage #Action,
a sister organization of the Heritage Foundation,
the arch-conservative think tank behind Project 2025,
whose chief architect, Russell Vought, posted on X that he was “proud to work with @William_E_Wolfe on scoping out a sound Christian Nationalism.”A few months later, the Bucks County Beacon uncovered a lengthy online manifesto on the goals of Christian nationalists.
The document, which listed Wolfe and Joel Webbon as contributing editors
and Oklahoma Sen. #Dusty #Deevers as a co-author,
called for “civil magistrates” to usher in 💥“the establishment of the Ten Commandments as the foundational law of the nation.”The manifesto doesn’t specify exactly how Christian nationalists should achieve these goals.
As Tabachnick, the extremism researcher, interprets it, the TheoBros are imagining a utopia where “they are going to be free to be entrepreneurs in all different senses,
including the tech world that they’re mixing with so freely.”The key, she said, is that authoritarianism “is required to have the utopian vision.”
Last year, the extremism watchdog group Right Wing Watch posted a video of Wolfe quoting a scripture passage.
There are times when “even the God of peace proclaims by his providence, ‘to arms!’” he says.“If we have ever lived in a point of time in American history since then that we could argue that now is a time ‘to arms’ again, I think we are getting close.”
William Wolfe’s Christian nationalism manifesto made the rounds on social media,
but in mainstream conservative outlets,
it was #Stephen #Wolfe
(no relation to William)
who brought TheoBro ideas to the wider world.In his book, which was praised by editors at the Federalist and the American Conservative,
Wolfe paints America as a “#gynocracy” whose government and culture have been feminized by unhappy women leaders.
(Sound familiar?)He has stated on X that women should not have the right to vote, and that “interethnic” marriage can be “sinful.”

One eager customer is 38-year-old TheoBro #Andrew #Isker
—the pastor who interned at Wilson’s church,
studied divinity at New Saint Andrews,
and co-wrote a book on Christian nationalism with #Andrew #Torba,
the openly antisemitic CEO of the social media platform #Gab.In July, Isker announced on X that he planned to move his family of seven to lead a church in a New Founding community in Tennessee.
Life in his native Minnesota, he said, had become untenable because of permissive laws around trans rights and abortion,
not to mention how hospitable the state has been to #refugees.“Minnesota is one of the top destinations for resettling foreign people hostile to our way of life,” he said.
That month, Isker spoke at a Texas conference about the
“war on white America”
alongside #Paul #Gottfried,
the mentor of prominent white nationalist #Richard #Spencer.The conference was hosted by the "True Texas Project",
a far-right group with ties to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.Like many TheoBros,
Isker sees much to like in Vance.In early July, before Trump announced his running mate, Isker referred to him as
“Senator JD Vance (R-Heritage America).”In late July, he posted a video of Vance and told his 29,000 followers,
“You need to double down on childless cat lady discourse.
Kamala sees happy, large families and hates them.
She wants them destroyed.
She wants you to never be able to have this.
She is a nasty, bitter harridan who hates all that is true, good, and beautiful.”One problem is that there simply are not enough TheoBros to populate Christian communities like the one Isker plans to move to.
Enter #William #Wolfe,
the founder of the
"Center for Baptist Leadership", which aims to persuade members of the Southern Baptist Convention that it,
the largest of all Protestant denominations in the United States,
has fallen prey to the corrupting forces of liberalism.Baptists are only the beginning.
Wolfe wants to win over the entire evangelical mainstream,
which he and other TheoBros refer to as “#Big #Eva.”In August, he posted on X,
“Once you realize that Big Eva thinks it’s a bigger sin to desire to preserve the customs, heritage, values, and cultural homogeneity of your own nation
than to kill the unborn in the womb, you can better understand their moral framework.”#Josh #Abbotoy #Claremont #Institute #Project2025 #Heritage #Foundation #Chris #Buskirk #Rockbridge #Network #Leonard #Leo #Peter #Thiel #Vance #Josh #Clemans #Charles #Haywood #warlord #Nate #Fischer #Brian #Sauvé #Mefferd #Joel #Webbon #dominant #man #submissive #woman #Hawley #Johnson #Lee #Vance #Trump #Turning #Point #USA #Tucker #Carlson #flamethrower #Douglas #Wilson #Calvinism #Vance #hypermasculinity #birthrates #ethnonationalism #misogyny #TheoBros #Calvin #Rushdoony #homeschooling #charismatic #New #Apostolic #Reformation #reformed #TheoBros #apostles #prophets #Bible #postmillennialism #Aaron #Renn #Andrew #Isker #Douglas #Wilson #shared #history #patriarchal #Christian #nationalism #young #pastors #Christian #prince #women #flogging #Franco #multiculturalism #Taylor #Swift

@lnxw37b2 @sun I think this is off the mark when it comes to how things are in the 2020s. It ain’t the 1970s anymore. I did some old analysis of some stats when I was on like #Gab or #QOTO, comparing how many times people of certain ethnic groups get killed by police in comparison to how many people they end up arresting, and using that data I found that white people were actually killed by cops 1% more than black people.
