White Supremacists and Neo-Nazis Celebrate Anniversary of Oslo Terrorist Attack
Between July 22 and July 24, white supremacists and neo-Nazis celebrated the twelfth anniversary of the 2011 Oslo terrorist attacks on Telegram, 4chan, and an imageboard on the dark web. The perpetrator of the July 22 terrorist attack detonated an explosive device in the government district of Oslo, killing eight people before murdering 69 others on the island of Utøya. Over 300 people were also injured in the attack.
Online members of the extreme right posted memes and praised the attacker, advocating reading and sharing his manifesto and calling for additional acts of lone actor violence. A Telegram channel connected to a website that promotes the work of James Mason and Atomwaffen Division successor group glorified the attacker on the anniversary. Five days earlier, the same channel praised the perpetrator of the El Paso shooting.
James Mason Defends Views In Video, Subtly Advocates Violence
In a video posted on an open-source platform, the neo-Nazi ideologue James Mason addressed criticism from the “internal enemy” in the extreme right that he is against accelerationism. Praising Joseph Tommasi and the domestic terrorist organization The Order, Mason repeated previous arguments that he does not advocate illegal acts but that if an individual were to commit a violent crime and risk prison or death that, “You might as well go all the way with it.” Mason’s book Siege advocates violence and has been required reading for several accelerationist groups, including the Atomwaffen Division and The Base. Even though Mason split with a larger group of his adherents in October 2022, his recent work is still promoted by a breakaway group on their website.
