Anglin endorsed Masters in a June post, writing, “I cannot give a more forceful endorsement, and I demand that anyone in Arizona (who is not some kind of known neo-Nazi or whatever) get in contact with his campaign and see what kind of help he needs.” He added that the candidate was only “getting better and better.” (Though Masters did condemn the bombings carried out by Kaczynski, he noted that he supports the Unabomber's writings on the negative social effects of modern technology.)Īmong the influential white-extremist figures who have taken a liking to Masters is Andrew Anglin, the founder of the neo-Nazi Daily Stormer blog.
He has claimed that “Black people” are to blame for America’s “gun violence problem” praised the writings of Ted Kaczynski, a domestic terrorist who has become a cult hero among the young and very online portion of the far right and embraced the rhetoric of “the great replacement,” a theory championed by white nationalists who accuse Democrats of replacing white Americans via an “invasion” of immigrants from non-white countries. The 36-year-old venture capitalist, who is the Republican nominee in Arizona’s key Senate race, has earned support from far-right figures by refusing to shy away from controversy throughout his campaign. In Blake Masters, white extremists feel that they may soon have an ally in the Senate.
