I thought this sounded familiar, and sure enough[1]. Edit: To make it explicit, which Palladium notably fails to do: this person is a reactionary and has a history of encouraging young girls to commit suicide.

  CharlotteFang literally admitted to being Miya on their own Twitter, the link is right in the page linked by GP.

      Are internal posts by CharlotteFang asking to "search & remove any occurrences do kaliacc" status-jacking as well ?

  >While CharlotteFang may be termed something close to reactionary (if your IQ is low and you can only think of 3 or 4 political archetypes) I would put them more in the neo-Nazi / pseudo-Esoteric Hitlerist archetype (https://archive.ph/qlYqD https://archive.ph/qlYqD): >How to save a nation in 5 steps: >First, you kill the Jews, who always seek to ruin and exploit other nations. >Then, you remove any peoples who are not native to the country in question*. >Then, you remove any vestigial influence left by the Jews, either by re-education, physical removal or otherwise. This includes everything under the cultural marxist platform: feminism, homosexuality, "sexual revolution," etc. >Then, you will work to re-coup and re-discover any heritage that may have been lost due to Jewish influence. You will work to carefully modernize your country based on the principles traditional to its native culture. >Now you may allow non-natives into the country but with limited rights on a temporary basis. Other peoples and countries will not be discriminated against, they will each be considered meritable under their own culture; but nothing will be done to draw their influence into the country's own identity. And before one argues this was edgy rusing and meming and LARPing and all that, CharlotteFang/Miya was an active, long-time moderator and owner of several 8chan /pol/ offshoot imageboard websites and boards, as well as a heavy poster on the original 8chan /pol/, all of which have connections to neo-Nazi mass shootings, including one attempted mass shooting of a synagogue (who Miya and friends affectionately refer to as "doorcuck" because he failed to breach the door of the synagogue and resigned himself to murdering some nearby civilians instead). Plus a perusal of their old Twitter makes it very obvious exactly where their sympathies lie. It's all Savitri Devi (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savitri_Devi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savitri_Devi) type stuff.

  This person admitted[1] to being the same person behind the Miya account. The posts made by that Miya account (they are public record, and has been archived since a long time by different accounts, see [2]) include : - calls for the extermination of Jews - calling homosexuality an "epidemic" and perversion - saying that "since we gave vote to *** we should give to gorillas too" - things like "a husband is to his wife what a parent is to their child" - asking counsel for "mind controlling an egirl slave harem" - boasting about bullying persons about their weight How is that "close to reactionary" ? This is extremely grave behavior. I have friends that have suffered a lot from this community, have witnessed their posts myself at the time they were made, and I cannot even begin to comprehend how could someone call that "close to reactionary if your IQ is low [...]" and end that with "DYOR". It hurts a lot to see that comment, and it makes me feel extremely uneasy to see these posts, especially one on "I don't want to be an Internet person" upvoted to the front page of HN. I don't know how to describe it, but there's something really nasty going on here.

    There was a (now deleted) tweet of a photo of a teen girl who they pushed into carving a swastika into her belly. He boasted about this as well. Another thread, describing how Yuga Cali pushed kids into committing suicide, as well as other NSFL activities. https://twitter.com/0xngmi/status/1528572556894142464 https://twitter.com/0xngmi/status/1528572556894142464

Palladium is a Thiel-backed rightwing propaganda outlet that insists it's "non partisan". It's a shame to see t shared here

  Exactly. It's also particularly concerning to see them increasingly adopt the esoteric, syncretic style of reactionary writing.
- mechanical_bear 4y ago
  I disagree. I also think there is more value in debating the message rather than the outlet.

    There’s nothing lost knowing more about a source of information. In most disciplines it’s actually a necessary step in interpreting text.

  >Thiel-backed I think that's in fact a reason why, and even the article itself is aware of this, these subcultures and the commentary on it seem so banal in real life. In reality it's more or less an economic grift to get funded by ideologically motivated venture capitalists, and everything centers around this. In Germany we call it "Hofberichterstattung". something like royal court reporting.

  I did not know, but am not surprised, that Palladium takes Thiel funding. That greatly clarifies this article’s purpose for me. It seemed odd to see another think piece about the NFT trend when it has already largely burned itself out, but Davis here is acting as something of a “party whip” for Thiel’s nascent political movement. The message of the article is much more aimed at the people being described in the article than it is at you or I: be less like these insipid Twitter personalities, be more like JD Vance and Blake Masters.

As someone who has recently discovered my neurodivergence, the first few paragraphs strike me as being very cruel towards people who are different. The internet, and niche social spaces, have given those who can't fit in a means to build community.
