    I hate people like this. You took an oath to uphold peace, foreign or DOMESTIC. You can’t defend a country if you don’t plan to protect everyone that belongs to the country. You don’t get to pick and choose who you protect. What a piece of shit.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The Guardian has identified a trainee nurse and reported US air force reservist called Bailey Ross as the proprietor of a white nationalist publisher in South Dakota.

    A statement of change filed with South Dakota’s secretary of state on 18 August 2022 recorded a new address: the same one Ross has shared with his fiance since July 2022.

    Apart from the website, Agartha uses its X account to promote its books, cross-promote other far-right publishers and interact with white nationalists, including Patrick Casey, the former head of the American Identity Movement (AIM).

    In a paragraph detailing each of the recipients’ service, Ross is identified as a Coast Guard veteran, “now majoring in nursing and serving as an air force reservist in an aeromedical evacuation squadron”.

    The Guardian left a request for comment with the US Coast Guard public affairs office for the 13th district, which covers the Pacific north-west, but received no immediate response.

    Hannah Gais, a senior researcher at the Southern Poverty Law Center, wrote that “book publishing can offer white power groups a consistent fundraising stream that they can channel to other activities, such as in-person organizing”, pointing to Antelope Hill’s “close ties to the pro-Hitler National Justice party”.


    I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    Support of fascism is a violation of the Oath of Enlistment; you cannot support fascism & uphold the Constitution at the same time.

    Fascist veterans should be rooted out, recalled to active duty & court-martialed. Full stop.
