Fox News and El Paso Gunman are on same Page: Fox Repeats Shooter’s Manifesto Verbatim
Fox News has echoed talking points from the El Paso shooter’s manifesto regarding a Hispanic “invasion” for some time.

Classical Scholars against the Identitarian Right
In the mid-point to the last quarter of 2018, many articles were written across platforms and the internet on how the Alt-Right and Conservatives were misappropriating “the Greek and Latin Classics” to lend credibility to vicious and vindictive white supremacist and Identitarian ideology.
