In this episode, which runs a bit longer than the first two, and which goes to some very dark places, Daniel tells Jack all about the infamous Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, 2017.

The episode features discussions of violence, and we try to signpost when we're getting into the painful details. But warnings definitely apply from the start. We're discussing virulent racism and bigotry.

(Also, we're on iTunes and YouTube now.)

Of necessity, we're only glancing at this incredibly big and complex subject, so we're going to be coming back to many of the issues, organisations, and persons mentioned.

And here are some notes, sources, and references.

(Oh, P.S. Fun fact... Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dropped into Hbomberguy's Donkey Kong charity Twitch stream as we recorded this.)

Daniel has curated a selection of clips relating to the subjects touched on in this episode. Beware, some of these clips feature people like Jason Kessler and Mike Enoch being vile. Here.

David Futrelle's blog We Hunted the Mammoth, is a good source for lots of information about the far-right in its many forms. The blog originally tracked the 'Manosphere' (i.e. MRAs, Incels, etc) but has increasingly tracked online hate more generally as the Manosphere joined up with and fed into the so-called 'alt-right', Trumpism, etc.

Here's his post on nazis mocking the murder of Heather Heyer in their memes...

...and here's his post on the Daily Caller's call for people to run over protestors.

And here is the video we refer to in the episode, 'Charlottesville: The True Alt-Right' by Shaun - excellent stuff.
