One of the largest gatherings of leading neo-Nazis and white nationalists in the US was exposed and disrupted in #Portland a few days ago.
This account was one of the organizers for the white supremacist weekend long event. Notice the handle "oregon weavers"
Sir Leif of Oregon has also publicly spoken about the Oregon chapter of "Basketweavers"
Basketweavers mostly operate in the shadows.
They are a massive far right network
predominantly operating in Europe. Most notably in Britain.
Basketweavers claim to be an apolitical group that primarily organises "social" events, but like their name, this is a ploy to distract outside attention from their white supremacy.
As David Reilly (who was also there) said when organizing Unite the Right, "stay in the closet" when referring to attendees making it known they are Nazis.
the Basketweavers are a deeply racist network whose goals are the radicalisation of lonely young men, the creation of whites only societies, and ultimately the cultivation of a "new elite"
the tactics they have used to stay off the radar of media and anti-fascists reflect a greater level of sophistication relative to other far right groups.
in the past, they have referred to secretive conferences vaguely as "the event" just how this past weekends in Portland did
