A Wisconsin teenager accused of murdering two family members and plotting to assassinate President Donald Trump was inspired by Terrorgram, a white supremacist network that operated on the Telegram messaging and social media platform for half a decade, according to federal court records.
The Terrorgram community, which has been linked to around three dozen criminal cases around the globe, including at least three mass shootings, was profiled last month in stories and a documentary produced by ProPublica and FRONTLINE.
The court documents allege that Nikita Casap, a 17-year-old from Waukesha, Wisconsin, wrote a three-page manifesto calling for the assassination of Trump in order to “foment a political revolution in the United States and ‘save the white race’ from ‘Jewish controlled politicians.’”
In his manifesto, Casap allegedly encouraged people to read the writings of Juraj Krajčík, a longtime Terrogram figure who murdered two people in an attack on an LGBTQ+ bar in Bratislava, Slovakia, in 2022, according to the court records. Casap also allegedly recommended two publications produced by the Terrorgram Collective, a secretive group that produced alleged hit lists, videos and written publications — including instructions for building bombs and sabotaging critical infrastructure — and distributed them throughout the Terrorgram ecosystem.
Ahh there we go. I had a feeling sooner or later the Nazis would grow tired of Trump’s bullshit. Now the liberals can rest easy while fascists do their own dirty work. Win/win
They’re not tired of him. The point of assassinating him was the hope that it would start a race war, which they believe they’d win. If anything, they believe his sacrifice would save the world.
They don’t hate him, they think he’s Jesus.
Wait…
If they think he’s Jesus…
And they’re plotting to kill him…
Wouldn’t that make them… 🧐
Judas.
That makes them a political party of Judases… Judasi?
I would so enjoy watching them nail Trump to a tree.
Good thing their MAGA religion is made up. And while 100% they do think Trump is Jesus, he isn’t coming back from the dead. If anything, assassinating him would implode the GOP as it’s entire structure is now accupied by complete imbeciles who just copy Trump. No Trump, nothing left to copy.
That’s the thing about Fascism - it’s always just populism. Aka vote for popular guy, and do what he says.
Hell most neo Nazis still have a boner for Hitler despite him not being around. The best they can do is convince themselves Trump is just like their fave Fascism daddy.
Populism is weak, because it always rests on the popularity of one guy. Trump is that guy, and once he’s gone so is his populism.
Would be hilarious if his fans did him in thinking he’d be coming back from a cave on Easter, instead of shattering the entirety of the GOP for a generation. Without Trump, they don’t know what they’re doing, and they seem very eager to find that out the hard way.
All religions are made up.
Agreed. But it’s easier to explain to American Christians they are fully practicing a second religion with MAGA, rather than convince them all religions are crap.
White Supremacist Telegram Network
damn, Hegseth and friends at it again
…did he not figure out that drumpf is a fookin Nazi??? I don’t understand why lil racist shitnoggen would want to kill a fat racist twatwaffle.
Is it not possible to forcibly, shut down websites like this? I’m not so computer savvy. I’m only here cuz fuck reddit…
Telegram isn’t a website like reddit or Lemmy, it’s a messaging app, which makes it a lot more complicated.
Users can create groups and invite anyone to those groups… this can be handy, if you and your social groups all talk about a specific topic. It gets to be a problem when the topic your social group promotes is white supremacy and radicalization.
Could telegram possibly police this? They could do a lot fuckin more, that’s for sure. But anywhere users have the ability to create something, some of them will always create some heinous shit that ruins it for everyone else.
Not really, they’ll just move to the next host or even self host. It’s like trying to stop AM KKK radio broadcasts here in the states.
