David Parker of Take Back Alberta joins a Diagolon livestream

On Saturday David Parker of Take Back Alberta joined a livestream hosted by a member of the far-right Diagolon extremist community. Zach Schmidt held the discussion panel about Western Separation.

Zach in the past has recited the Neo-Nazi 14 words slogan, expressed support for Holocaust denial and made reference to "the Jewish question".

The subject of immigration came up during the live stream, and to David's credit he made some statements that were supportive of immigration.

But the moment that Zach knocked everyone off the stream he made it clear that he is against David's stance on immigration and read a comment from a viewer that "Canada is for the white man".

A couple days after his live stream with David Parker, Zach interviewed Neo-Nazi Nicholas Jonathan Gregory from Night Nation Review.

There is more than enough evidence as to why associating with Diagolon is problematic(here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here), but let's take a look at some of the things said by Diagolon live streamers just this week.
Content warning going forward: racism, racial slurs

Here Jeremy Mackenzie bluntly states that he hates Indians.

Alex Vriend does the same....

... and wants to kick them out of the country.

Ferryman and other Dags are starting to migrate over to "goyim.tv", which is a website run by the white supremacist group Goyim Defense League. The GDL are known for holding demonstrations in front of synagogues while holding swastika flags.

Here Derek Harrison "jokes" about Muslims getting run over by an ambulance. That seems to be a pattern with him.

Lesser known Diagolon streamer Chris Freestone says that he doesn't want "j**ts and n****rs" in his neighbourhood and compares people of colour to skunks. It also sounds like he was yelling this at people from the front of his house.

On the same stream Chris claims that "We'll make Hitler look like a joke", and Tom McCue refers to Jews as rats.

So this is the movement that former UCP staffer David Parker is now choosing to associate with. I wonder if he still has access to Danielle Smith.

Is it time to start referring to Diagolon as a Neo-Nazi movement? Part II: Diagolon streamers go live with international Neo-Nazis

Looks like it's time to continue the discussion about whether we should be referring to Diagolon as a Neo-Nazi movement. The Canadian Anti-Hate Network recently reported on Alex Vriend's decision to live stream with various far-right and Neo-Nazi figures. I have previously reported on Diagolon's attempts to recruit people into Neo-Nazi Active Clubs, as well as Alex Vriend starting his own. In this blog entry I want to discuss some of the recent statements made by Vriend and other notable Dags.

Dan Sleno added himself to the list of Diagolon live streamers who have endorsed people joining Neo-Nazi Active Clubs.

This comes after 2 Active Club members were arrested on terrorism related charges.https://t.co/Cpkz1Sr1Uq

This was after Ontario Active Club members Matthew Althorpe and Kristoffer Nippak were charged with terrorism related offenses.

As previously noted, Alex Vriend invited Australian Neo-Nazi Thomas Sewell on to a live stream. Alex tells the audience that at some point nationalists will have to address "the Hitler question". Of course speaking with the leader of the Australian National Socialist Movement and telling him that you appreciate what he has to say will certainly raise those questions.

Does saying that the Nazis were the good guys in WWII, and that it's the Jews that want you to believe otherwise make you a Neo-Nazi? I would argue yes, but I'm sure Diagolon would balk at that notion.

Does inviting someone onto your live stream to promote the creation of a world-wide Neo-Nazi movement make you a Neo-Nazi? Maybe this is why you keep having to respond to "the Hitler question" Alex....

 ... or it could be that you re-broadcast Hitler speeches....

... or perhaps it's because of the roman salutes you and Derek do on your live streams.

Alex enjoys seeing non-white people whom he calls "migrants" and "invaders" getting assaulted and he states that he hopes more of it happens. He and Jeremy believe that "vigilantism" will increase against immigrants.

Here Derek complains about seeing a Muslim weatherperson, even though he doesn't even watch the news.

Ferryman seems confident that they can just start deporting people.
This is why I state as often and as loudly as possible: THERE. IS. NO. PEACEFUL. WHITE. NATIONALISM.

Of course Derek blames women and thinks they should lose the right to vote.

Josh Bigger (AKA: Mr Freedom) who is a Diagolon supporter was on a live stream with Zach Schmitt (also a Diagolon supporter) where Schmitt discussed a "revolution with gallows" and "the Jewish question".

More on "the Jewish Question" and both of them seem to question the Holocaust.

On a live stream with Diagolon streamer Tom McCue, Josh makes it clear that he thinks that there should be no issue with questioning the Holocaust.

Zach uses his blog to promote the Neo-Nazi "14-words" slogan. He also implies that Jews are protecting pedophiles and that Canadians need to become more racist and hateful.

Jeremy Mackenzie recently went on a live stream with UK Neo-Nazi Mark Collett.

And of course, Jeremy is still his usual antisemitic self.

He also went on a live stream with his old buddy, Holocaust denier Ryan Dawson.
During the stream they discussed the Neo-Nazi "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville and spread the alt-right lie that Heather Hayer wasn't murdered but died of a heart attack.

What's funny is that recently Dawson showed disapproval towards open displays of Nazism in their movement. I wonder whether he mentioned that to his Diagolon friends.

So to sum up in the last year Diagolon streamers have:
- promoted Neo-Nazi Active Clubs
- engaged in Holocaust minimization/denial
- given roman salutes
- interviewed Neo-Nazis
- advocated for "migrants" to be deported
- shared speeches by Adolf Hitler
- quoted Mein Kampf to justify their views
- repeated Neo-Nazi slogans

And the only response they'll have for the allegation that they're Neo-Nazis is to gaslight people.
Don't fall for it.
