Glaring white supremacist iconography doesn’t show up in presidential campaign materials by accident. So how did this happen?successfully attract desired voters, and the voters in question are too-online members of the far right who are, at the very least, anti-anti-Nazi. Or maybe it’s more than campaign strategy—maybe Hochman and his collaborators are simply white supremacists themselves.
But even that doesn’t answer why Hochman made the video he did. It wasn’t distributed in private channels, and it’s not the dog whistle you’d expect from a campaign trying to court the far right while maintaining plausible deniability. It’s blatant, and I suspect it’s significantly about Republican desperation for the youth vote.
That the GOP is in a panic about young people is not new. The party has been hyperventilating over “demographics is destiny”—the idea,, that long-term demographic trends would produce permanent Democratic majorities by the middle of this century—for as long as I can remember. This includes the fear that each new generation will fail to age rightward as their predecessors have done. The boomers grew out of weed and war protests, Gen X is comfortably settled in the suburbs, but will millennials and zoomers do the same?
