I went undercover in the digital white supremacist movement for a year. I wasn't ready for what the research would do to me. (by chick_in_kiev)

In it, she recounts her deep dive into the digital white supremacist movement while assuming multiple identities, including an "involuntarily celibate" virgin, the "Aryan Queen," and a bachelorette from Iowa looking for love on a whites-only dating site.

In order to look as deeply as I could into the world of white nationalism, I had to leave my own identity behind as often as not. In real life, I'm a schlubby, bisexual Jew, living in Brooklyn, with long brown ratty curls, the matronly figure of a mother in a Philip Roth novel, and brassy personal politics that aren't particularly sectarian but fall considerably to the left of Medicare for All. Over the course of writing this book, I had to leave my own skin.

I pretended to be an incel — an "involuntarily celibate" virgin, radicalized into a deep hatred of women by his lack of sexual success. As myself, I attended a conference for alt-right YouTubers in Philadelphia and was chased out of a casino. I spoke to everyday antifascists defending their community in Charlottesville, Virginia. I was rejected from joining a white-supremacist pagan ritual in the Albany area by the elders of a weight-lifting pagan cult called Operation Werewolf. I listened to a terrible white-nationalist freestyle-rap diss battle.

A hate group called Patriot Front had already sent my parents a postcard with the Nazi-era slogan "Blood and Soil." I had already had my relatives' names published on Gab, a white-supremacist-friendly social media site used by alleged Pittsburgh synagogue shooter Robert Bowers.As I write this now, I feel myself incandescent with the kind of anger that doesn't just last an evening.

They choose to dream not of peace or of equality or of anything better than the sorry ragged world as it is, but of a worse world, riven by terror, awash in the blood of those they consider subhuman. Which means anyone not white; which means anybody Jewish; which means anyone who fights back against their putrid cancer of an ideology. Their dialogue is unremittingly puerile and violent.
