Experts say Observations Group’s connections to the Base and Rinaldo Nazzaro present ‘urgent danger’

In the underworld of accelerationist neo-Nazis, where talk of attacks against western governments are commonplace, the spread of illegal weapons manuals and tradecraft on drone warfare are proliferating. Experts say, in some cases, that classes are being taught online with the input of leadership from proscribed terrorist groups with links to Russian intelligence.

Authorities have been warning, on both sides of the Atlantic, about the accessibility of drone technologies and military veterans on the far right with the know-how to use them, presenting a grave national security threat.

“Offering military-style training materials, including drone tradecraft, to the extreme right indicates that this is for prepping purposes,” said Joshua Fisher-Birch, a terrorism analyst with close to a decade of experience tracking militant movements. “[To] improve the capacity of extremist networks to commit violence, or to encourage acts of violence specifically.”

      What it your point? So you assume that because I live in WNC that I am a shitty person? That I am personally responsible for the bad actions of all the shitty people? Feel free to get out from behind your computer screen and put you ass where your mouth is. Go demolish that deathcamp or go raise hell in one of those sundown towns. I would be happy to drive your around WNC to some of these town and let you show your ass. Did you even look at the towns on the NC sundown town website? Did you even read the main page of that website? Painting a group of people with broad strokes because of the accident of geography is just another form of prejudice and does nothing but divide us.

      Have you looked at the towns on that site?

      So many are just “possible” and they don’t list ANY supporting evidence or links to primary sources. I was super intrigued because I thought it was a cool resource, but my city has one comment saying that someone who supposedly lived there in the 50s heard someone say that blacks weren’t welcome.

      Some have literally no comment even.

      It doesn’t even say these ARE current sundown towns, just ones they someone suspects could have been LITERALLY EVER IN THEIR PAST.
