Violent reactions sparked by a sense of revenge are likely to come from MAGA groups, not neo-Nazi groups, although these would opportunistically join in violence whenever possible. Proud Boys should be especially monitored due to their overlap with MAGA.
Increased repression is a very safe prediction. Therefore, we encourage people to be on heightened alert and come together in solidarity to study and practice effective community defense.
1) happiness at the death of a rival and the opportunity to poach his followers
2) acknowledgements of political differences on Israel while giving Kirk respect and even mildly mourning him
3) predictions of increased state repression against the left, and happiness at that prospect
Kirk also did a lot to support and encourage fascism by creating a more friendly cultural environment for it to grow, and many fascists admired his ability to "trigger the libs".
As such, the people we track are having reactions we can break down into the following types:
(Kirk and the MAGA Republicans he catered to are deeply antisemitic, but Kirk's pro-Israel/Christian Zionist stance enraged other members of the far right who might otherwise be their allies.)
Although Kirk was a prominent right-wing propagandist, he was not a self-defined fascist, nor did ideological fascists claim him. In fact, many on the far right openly despised and mocked him. There was a long-lasting feud between his organization and Nick Fuentes' organization, for example.
On the not-so-sad occasion of Charlie Kirk's death today, we would like to discuss his connection to fascism and fascist reactions to his death.
Hamilton, who is now also using the alias "Hunter", is a committed neo-Nazi and may pose a threat to those around him. Read more on our website, and if you have further information about Hamilton’s location and current activities, please get in touch.
Apart from his presence at “Winter Nights”, David Hamilton may be based in Tennessee now. A photo we received of Hamilton last year shows a Madisonville, TN business in the background. That store is approximately fifteen minutes by car from Ian Elliott’s compound in Tellico Plains, Tennessee.
Graham Whitson knocks out David Hamilton in bare knuckle fight, Tellico Plains, Tennessee, early November 2024.
In 20204, PF organizer Ian Elliott hosted a “Winter Nights” fight club gathering at his compound in eastern Tennessee. Media from the event shows longtime Patriot Front member Graham Whitson quickly knocking out David Hamilton in a bareknuckle fight.
Still from 2003 “Church of Aryanity” video showing a swastika tattooed on Hamilton’s chest.
Hamilton is involved with the Church of Aryanity, a neo-Nazi cult which reveres Hitler. Under the alias of “Hunt’wa N'Wah," he traveled to an Aryanity gathering in 2023, where Aryanity leader Aaron Barret Chapman tattooed a swastika on “Hunt’wa”/Hamilton’s chest.

We are exposing Hamilton because he is a committed neo-Nazi and may pose a threat to those around him. If you have further information about Hamilton’s location and current activities, please get in touch.
David Hamilton appears to be spending time in Tennessee and may be based there. A photo we received of Hamilton last year shows a Madisonville, Tennessee business in the background. That store is approximately fifteen minutes by car from Ian Elliott’s compound in Tellico Plains, Tennessee.

Wheatpasted poster that reads "Free all Antifascist Prisoners!"
New on our site: atlantaantifa.org/2025/02/25/t.... Sometimes, seeing one simple wheatpasted message can have more impact than a thousand social media upvotes. Showing solidarity to the victims and targets of fascism and lifting their spirits is another crucial purpose of these physical messages.
If there isn't an active antifascist group in your location or state, we encourage you to make one! This 2017 guide is still very relevant and useful. itsgoingdown.org/forming-an-a...
Here's another valuable piece by another antifascist research group in the south: bsky.app/profile/arel...
We're not talking about our original pieces because we're in it for the credit, but because it's better for everyone when news sources cite original antifascist grassroots research. The more exposure our pieces get, the more likely it is we get more tips on white supremacist activity.
We're glad that this information is reaching a wide audience, & Phil Williams has done fantastic work covering the far right. We'd also like to note that our group originally exposed Ian Michael Elliott in 2021 & also first discovered & published the location and ownership of the compound in 2024.
Two images of Jacob-Patry-Sempf, a white man with dark hair, at two distinct points in his life. The first image is a selfie, framed from the neck up, of Patry during or after 2014. His hair is short but messy, and he wears safety glasses. His facial expression appears to be a faint smirk. The background appears to be some kind of machinist shop. The second image is a video still or poor resolution photo from before or during 2021, framed from the waist up. Patry, wearing a white polo shirt and a dark baseball cap with a square red patch on the front, stands grinning at and facing something off-frame. His arms are crossed, sitting above a slightly paunchy stomach. Behind him is indistinct shrubbery. Below the images are sets of text, laid out as if marking art pieces in a gallery. The first, appearing as stenciled graffiti, reads "formerly Logan VT" and "PF-2637". The second, as native text from the Rose City Antifa Patriot Front Member Gallery, reads "Logan TN" and "PF-9768". Underneath both, again appearing as stenciled graffiti, reads "(Jacob Patry-Sempf)".
A screenshot of a Twitter post from Jacob Patry as user @smugfrog_, dated November 19th, 2024. In reply to a post made by failed Republican Senate candidate Sam Parker, Patry posts: "Jew says if we let China win, it'll be the end of Israel and Chine will enslave Jews & blacks in chains. Now, don't threaten me with a good time."
Jacob T. Patry-Sempf of Tellico Plains TN, a/k/a "Arch Dornan," "Ultima Ratio," "Roman Ungern," and Twitter users @ZAxisRapid & @smugfrog_, is "Logan TN," formerly "Logan VT," of Patriot Front! A loud & proud racist, Patry claims he works for WYKO Tire Tech of Greenback TN. CW: hate speech
They also provide rescue and medical aid. Now that Russian and US imperialism have become increasingly aligned, in the light of global solidarity, supporting their brave resistance is even more crucial.
We also encourage support for anti-authoritarian and anarchist Ukrainians against Russian imperialism. Solidarity Collectives - www.solidaritycollectives.org/en/ - has been providing support to anti-authoritarian fighters who choose to fight within the Ukrainian armed forces.
Women Watch Afrika - womenwatchafrika.org/services/ - is a local organization engaging in mutual aid, and the IRC - www.rescue.org - is an NGO with a base in Atlanta that engages in direct aid to refugees here and abroad.
The Atlanta metro area is home to many refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, and South Sudan, three countries of many whose US-subsidized food aid has been interrupted or made precarious. Many refugees here are helping support those back in their home countries.
That’s the big picture historical view. In the here and now, this means people are starving and dying as US aid is abruptly withdrawn.
We’d like to encourage support for those left hanging dry.
US global power will now become purely extractive, transactional, and ethnonationalist, harkening back to McKinley in the 19th century, shedding any humanitarian elements developed during the post-WWII consensus.
A quick global solidarity thread: we’re currently witnessing the Trump/Musk regime pushing through their “America First” foreign policy.
Yesterday a racist attack against Black members of a band occurred in Atlanta, Georgia. Please contribute to the fundraiser of one of the people hospitalized due to the attack.
At this time we do not believe the individual pictured is part of a known group.
