In case folks without an account can’t see it, I’ll transcribe.
It’s time to shine some light on the connection between recent “anti-groomer” rhetoric (targeting our LGBTQ friends and neighbors) and established white supremacy initiatives.
In December 2022, on telegram, the white lives matter (WLM) initiative promised a coming revision of their
“activist” manual. This is the PDF manual they distribute to recruit and guide white supremacists in promoting hate through banner drops, sticker campaigns, etc.
So far a WLM revised manual has not appeared, but in January 2023 another “initiative” appeared on the same online platform calling itself “Project 171” or “Anti Groomer Action.”
CVA researchers have determined Project 171 is an attempt by WLM to pivot tactics away from hard white supremacy
rhetoric and instead, capitalize on the recent wave of hatred targeting schools and drags shows with accusations of “sexualizing children.”
The following comparisons of the WLM activist manual 2.0, and the January 2023 Project 171 Anti Groomer Action
manual show identical format, organization, and in many cases, cut and pasted text from one to the other.
We don’t intend to reprint the entirety of either manual, but our comparisons provide evidence that the recent
Project 171 initiative is an attempt by an established white supremacy organization to diversify and infiltrate a
parallel hate narrative targeting LGBTQ people.
And here are the images they shared, one of the first page of the “revised” WLM guide, and the other of their new “Anti Groomer Action” pamphlet
