QAA Podcast - Terrorgram Sex Toy Saleswoman Arrest (Premium E250) Sample

Episode Date: September 18, 2024

On September 9th, United States prosecutors announced the indictment and arrest of two leaders of the so-called “Terrogram Collective.” This is an online community of accelerationist neo-nazis which the DOJ called “a transnational terrorist group.” The indictment charges Dallas Humber, 34, of Elk Grove, California, and Matthew Allison, 37, of Boise, Idaho with 15 crimes. They include soliciting hate crimes, soliciting the murder of federal officials, and conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. If convicted of all charges, Humber and Allison each face a maximum penalty of 220 years in prison. This group has produced propaganda that encourages their fellow white supremacists to venerate murderers and violently attack Black, immigrant, LGBT, and Jewish people. The screeds have directly inspired a series of ideologically motivated attacks around the world. These include a 2022 mass shooting at a gay bar in Slovakia; successful attacks on power infrastructure in North Carolina; and a stabbing spree in Turkey. To help better understand Terrorgram, the arrests, and the history of Dallas Humber we spoke to Abner Hauge and Michael Boorman from Left Coast Right Watch, the publication that first identified Humber as a driving force behind Terrorgram in March of last year.

Keep mehame If you're hearing this, well done. You've found a way to connect to the internet. Welcome to the QAA podcast, Premium Episode 260, Teragram, Sex Toy, Saleswoman, Arrest. As always, we are your hosts, Julianfield. And Travis View. I guess a brief content warning.

Because this is maybe one of the silliest titles we've had in the while, but this is also some of the darkest material we've, like, tend to cover on this podcast. We're talking about people who don't, just have, like, murderous hatred. They have, like, murderous suicidal hatred. So, just be warned. Everything is a joke to you, Travis. That's what I've noticed, is you think, you think even the most serious things you can make little funny jokes about, really the joker of the podcast.

To help us understand the evolution of pterogram and what these arrests might mean for the group, we are now joined by Abner Haugie and Michael Borman from left coast right watch. This is the publication that first identified Dallas Humber as a driving force behind pterogram in March of last year. Thank you both for your comprehensive reporting on this over the past couple of years and

for joining us today. Oh, thank you for having us. Glad to be back, boys. It's a pleasure. It is a pleasure. This is very fascinating, but very grim material. Yeah, and by pleasure, I mean horrible pain. Right.

So you mean pleasure. People said that to me. So let's start at the beginning. So pterogram, real, you know, just real nasty accelerationist. So first of all, how would you define someone who is like a neo-Nazi accelerationist as opposed to, perhaps a different variety of neo-Nazi? So neo-Nazis could come in a lot of different flavors. There was kind of a split maybe towards the 1970s. So a lot of neo-Nazi strategies up until, say, like, the 1970s when Klansman Louie Beam decided to target the small town in Texas that had a bunch of Vietnamese immigrants.

So what Beam's innovation was, was he kind of coined the phrase, bring the war home that later got spun into the title of a book by Kathleen Ballou, really great researcher. Beam was a Vietnam War veteran, and he took kind of the irregular warfare tactics that the Viet Cong used and basically brought them home to do these kinds of attacks on the immigrant community in Texas. Before that, a lot of neo-Nazi activity had been kind of political. You know, like George Lincoln Rockwell, he would go out and do these political stunts, protests on college campuses, do all the whole free speech stick that, like, you see Charlie Crue. or Myelianopoulos back a decade ago doing. And the main route to power and recognition and income for neo-Nazi leaders was basically these kinds of political stunts that you'd see other fringe political groups do. But a lot of neo-Nazis are dissatisfied with that.

So what a strain of all kind of that splintered off from that, starting it, I don't know who he was even starting in the 70s, but it kind of became more prevalent in the 70s and 80s where they took these kind of tactics and they said, well, to hell with getting political power through the U.S. government, the U.S. government's controlled by the Jews who cares about them. We're at war with them. And we're seeing ourselves as the David versus the Goliath here. So they basically said what we want to do instead of attack it, you know, trying to ingrati guard ourselves with the Republican Party or whoever the hell's in power and try to take hold of the reins and direct what the army does, we're going to attack the world from the outside. We're

going to attack the government from the outside. We're going to see where all of the vulnerabilities in U.S. society are. And we're going to like power stations that are unguarded, like immigrant communities that don't have very much protection from the police. And we're going to go ahead and do these sporadic attacks and incite so-called lone wolves to attack them. Yeah, so the idea is basically you inspire people who are

disaffected and believe in neo-Nazi ideology to act on their own and you valorize them for that and you have them do these unpredictable attacks on say like a power station and you cause a blackout

for a day or two. Or you go up and shoot up a synagogue or something. Or you go try to, I don't know, kill a radio host like a Jewish radio host that got killed in the 70s by a neo-Nazi crew. You basically do a bunch of these irregular attacks and these attacks will cascade and inspire more and more neo-Nazis and more people to be radicalized into neo-Nazism. And eventually that will, in theory, overwhelm the government and collapse it. And what they hope, their fantasy is that when the government collapses, there will be a power vacuum that they can carve out little fiefdoms from, like they can take over

little sheriff's departments and claim a county for themselves or something. So these are people who like look at, say, David Duke and say, not radical enough. You know, they go, you know, someone, they believe that the only way to achieve their dream white ethno state is through death and destruction and collapse. Yeah. In their view, the system is rotten. They're not emotionally or economically invested in it. And they see their primary interest as bringing the system crashing down as fast as possible. And their idea is to just like encourage as much chaos to accelerate that process and hope that the more it happens, the more people will get involved.

and the faster and faster things will stand out of control. You've been listening to a sample of a premium episode of the QAA podcast.
