A right-wing publisher, known as 'Lomez,' was doxxed by an Antifa journalist leading to a public backlash. Steve Bannon discussed the incident, highlighting Lomez being labeled a 'class traitor' and the use of 'devil terms' like 'fascist' and 'far-right.' Sohrab Ahmari explores a new eugenic/race-obsessed right-wing subset, including 'off-white ethnics.' The incident sparked discussions on racial/eugenic ideologies and the far-right in the US, with a focus on countercultural movements and the worship of strength. The situation has drawn attention to the rise of right-wing anti-liberalism and the profile of dissenting right-wing individuals in academia and urban settings.
An Antifa-linked journalist doxed a famous anon and thanks to Bannon, it backfired epically… https://t.co/4Gn4wOkZag @L0m3z @RevolverNewsUSA
“The good news is that Lomez appeared on WarRoom with Steve Bannon and turned the entire dox disaster into a triumphant victory. First off, he’s handsome, which probably explains why the left opted to leave out his photo.” https://t.co/JYbdIMSkTI

The doxxing of my good friend L0m3z, real name "Ernest Khalimov," is a good moment to reflect on some principles of anon opsec. Although The Guardian isn't telling the full story of how it found out L0m3z's identity, there is still much to learn here. https://t.co/97D6ueHyYS
‘Dissident right’ types are mostly white men. The vocal types on social media, a lot of them would have been academics in a world that wanted them. The world doesn’t want them, actively discriminates against their employment in universities - and also tech outfits, banks, law…
From the New Stateman: "America’s dime-store Nietzscheans" "What the unmasking of an anonymous publisher and Twitter personality reveals about the far right in the US." "By Sohrab Ahmari" https://t.co/EWELSO3wMj https://t.co/CSiL2HdCD1
So good from @SohrabAhmari. Twitter and social media's far-right isn't disaffected hillbillies from the holler. It's mostly contrarian urbanites and aristocrats. https://t.co/Wsqu1SvvhJ
A lot of articles recently about (some version of) pop-Nietzscheanism. Haven't read this one yet. All signs of concern with the growth of right-wing anti-liberalism? https://t.co/72khZLHqMU
How convenient that days after the Lomez dox, Sohrab Ahmari has a long think piece in a liberal paper about right wing racists in which he begins with the story. https://t.co/JB0Dznc1b8
“It is a subset of disaffected or stressed urban professionals today who are developing a counterculture centred around the worship of strength and the restoration of ‘natural hierarchies’ among large human groups.” 🖊️ @SohrabAhmari https://t.co/lYaQuOKhJP
Some ex-Bernie types are adopting very-hard-right IQ/race ideology. Why is that? Because edgy racial/IQ ideology can help one strike a countercultural pose---alluring for the same reason Bernie-ism was circa 2016. But there's more to it. My latest. https://t.co/qeSBMMCa20
For The New Statesman today, I've written a kind of sociological profile of a new cohort of young people drawn to racial, eugenic, and IQ-obsessed ideologies---dime-store Nietzscheanism, if you will. If you think subcultures don't matter, then feel free to ignore this post. I… https://t.co/xtcIS0sMuz
Antifa goon at the Guardian doxxes anonymous right-wing publisher, turns out he is a normal person with a great life "I regret nothing. I apologize for nothing. God bless you all, even the haters." The Guardian has gone to great lengths to dox the holder of an anon X account… https://t.co/yB4siZqqbD
Many of the leading members of the new eugenic/race-obsessed right are white I call "off-white ethnics": Armenians, Jews, North Africans, etc. Not exactly Teutonic. What explains this? I explore in my latest for The New Statesman. https://t.co/qeSBMMCa20

Racial/eugenic ideology today is a counter-cultural pose–hence its attraction for ex-leftists. Also notable: the prevalence of what I call “off-white ethnics” (Jews, North Africans, Armenians, etc.). Not exactly the stuff of Teutonic-Aryan supremacy. https://t.co/qeSBMMCa20
According to a conventional account, the Trumpian back country is seething with racial resentment. But actually, it's a subset of disaffected or stressed urban professionals who are developing a counterculture of eugenics and IQ worship. My latest. https://t.co/qeSBMMCa20
The "dissident right" is people who are so desperate to ape liberal cultural elites that they are willing to become caricatures, embracing things such as transgenderism "but, like, edgy, it's art," and serving no purpose beyond staring intently into a collective navel. https://t.co/PgqXxGVtLP
EXCLUSIVE: "Lomez" breaks his silence after doxxing incident by Antifa journo at The Guardian https://t.co/WV9MA54yde
Steve Bannon has @L0m3z on WarRoom to explain how Lomez being a “class traitor” led to his eventual doxing by an ANTIFA journalist who used “devil terms” such as “fascist” and “far-right” to discourage future employment and leave a paper trail to “set the narrative” on who he is. https://t.co/Pa2cE5wK6q
I wrote about the dissident right and academia in 2019. What do you think? How has the analysis held up? https://t.co/PqQZZ3QgY0
