While NLM and 764 have received significant media attention, Milikolosskrieg has gone largely unexamined. Bearing all the hallmarks of the decentralized, satanic, neo-Nazi organization Order of Nine Angles (O9A), Milikolosskrieg espouses a hard accelerationist ethos, and pushes its members through a three-stage pipelinein which recruitment and radicalization lead to discussions of real-world terror activity. It started making waves when it shared links to its Telegram and Signal groups on social media, accompanied by images and videos of masked men with guns and inflammatory slogans like Jews are garbage, kill them and join your local terrorist.
Their propaganda aesthetic is deliberately crude and confrontational, full of satanic and O9A imagery, as well as heavily edited gore. In that respect, it takes cues from Atomwaffen Division, a bunch of O9A neo-Nazis who have been linked to many killings and designated as a terror group in the UK and Canada. Designed not only to shock, but to establish in-group identity and ideological alignment, Milikolosskrieg was banned from many social media platforms, including Telegram, but retains a presence on Signal, where users radicalize one another and guide newcomers toward increasingly extreme ideologies.
A core function of the group is to desensitize users through exposure to gorebeheading videos, narco executions, murder victim footageand violent ideology, while normalizing discussions that encourage rape, child abuse, and mass murder. Materials shared in the Signal groupwhich VICE has infiltratedinclude handbooks like Militant Accelerationist, which openly call for terror attacks while lauding far-right extremists like Brenton Tarrant as saints; links to download a rape-themed video game called No Mercy; images of animal sacrifices tied to O9A rituals; and memes glorifying murder and violent extremism. Members also celebrate the convicted child sex offender and murderer Peter Scully, and share tactics on how to avoid detection.

(3,983 posts)I mean the original Nazis benefited greatly from the rise of radio, so there's no doubt that cultural viruses spread more quickly as communication technology evolves.

(3,707 posts)Given that 1) There'd never BEEN a country taken over in that way by a Nazi-like party who'd do the horrific things theirs eventually did, and 2) There really was pretty serious economic hardship tied to the restitution that the country was having to pay for their damage in WWI, and their national pride was in the toilet. I'm not EXCUSING Nazis, mind you, but I at least understand why they were sucked in and had no clue about the direction they were heading at the time. They lacked a historical precedent they could examine.
There's NO fucking excuse now, not after we've seen what fascist governments do, especially not in any of the wealthier countries, like Germany itself.

(1,801 posts)I assume Vice has a reason for that term, but the article didn't seem to go into that specifically that would differentiate between these nazis and non-satanic nazis. Not that all nazis don't suck and should be monitored/dispersed.
