Meet 'Miss Gorehound' - the narrator of Terrorgram

Fascists, like pedophiles, love to belong to internet groups and swap evidence of their crimes. These deviants heighten their pleasure by ritualizing and sharing their depravity. One group that caters to hate is the Neo-Nazi Terrorgram Collective — a portmanteau name created by combining ‘terrorism’ with the right-wing encrypted Russian-created, Dubai-based, messaging app ‘Telegram’.

Who are these people? Christopher Mathias of HuffPo has written an insightful article answering the question.  

"The Terrorgram Collective is at the heart of the international neo-Nazi accelerationist movement, the most extreme and explicit iteration of white supremacism, which advocates deadly violence and other acts of destruction to hasten the collapse of society so that a whites-only world can be built in its place.

The collective produces propaganda — audiobooks, videos, and memes — that travels across the web in hopes of inspiring the next Christchurch shooter, who killed 51 Muslims in two mosques; the next El Paso shooter, who killed 22 Hispanic people in a Walmart; the next Pittsburgh shooter, who killed 11 Jews in a synagogue; and the next Buffalo shooter, who killed 10 Black Americans in a grocery store.”     

In his essay, Mathias features Terrorgram’s narrator Dallas Erin Humber — a first-order terrorism instigator with an eclectic work history. Left Coast Right Watch has an in-depth profile on Humber. It is a tale of early obsession descending into nihilism.

Dallas’ love of abnormal psychology started when she was 13, and she described herself as a “hopeless fangirl” for serial killers. She frequented 4chan, as well as one of its spin-off sites, Gurochan, a home for people obsessed with gore.

She also posted her neo-Nazi art and writings on Deviantart and on her online journal, Diary of a Young National Socialist. At 15, her Deviantart bio said she was a “Darling Lolita of the Far Right”.

By all accounts, she was brilliant. At the 15, Humber was among a small group of high school students chosen to compete in the Student Launch Initiative, a NASA-conducted engineering design challenge. Her team, comprised entirely of AP Physics students, won the national championship that year. She one day hoped to receive a doctorate in astrophysics from Cambridge University.

In 2006, at 18, her world was rocked when she said her fiance dumped her for an e-girl and her mother threw her out of the house — despite claiming she had no issue with her daughter's neo-Nazi tastes. Humber then disappeared from social media view for seven years.

In 2008, she was arrested for burglary and charged with additional offenses, including receiving/concealing stolen property, possessing a forged I.D., giving false information to a police officer, resisting/obstructing a police officer, and evasion/wanton disregard for safety. She was arrested again in 2012, this time for possession of a controlled substance.

From 18, she maintained a relationship with Jason James Gant (aka Jason Gant Rau), 12 years her senior. He is a registered sex offender — in 2010, the police arrested him for possession of child porn.

In 2014, Humber reintroduced herself on DeviantArt and Gurochan — signing off on her posts with nods to her former monikers, “hopelessfangirl” and “lilloli” (short for “Little Lolita”), and “lil miss gorehound” — which, slightly modified, is her online name today.

She also created a new persona, “Tex Hunter” the sex toy reviewer. Humber made videos from her dining room offering tips, tricks, and coupon codes as she shilled dildos.

At the same time, her love of guro art, aka “hentai snuff,” had become a full-blown gore fetish. The medium combines eroticism and grotesqueness — and aims to make the viewer uncomfortable. It shows women as either victims or abusers of other women — while it portrays men as strong, powerful, and heroic.

Humber’s work featured scenes of torture, dismemberment, and explicit sexual violence. Much of it appeared to be anime self-portraits covered in bruises, burns, and scars. It seemingly reflects the misogyny that is often a root cause of the violent, white supremacist ideology she promotes.

In 2015, Humber wrote a novel, parts of which remain on the internet. It is the story of an affair between two members of the Nazi’s Einsatzgruppen, aka “mobile killing squads,” whose love blossoms as they carry out acts of torture and genocide while the Third Reich’s death machine murders women and children. I suppose it is the flip side of the Sound of Music coin.

More recently, Humber started corresponding with mass murderers, including Dylann Roof, the carbuncular neo-Nazi who brought his pointless race war to Atlanta by killing nine Blacks at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.

She branched out into audiobooks when she narrated the 1,500-page manifesto of Anders Breivik, who massacred 77 Swedes, mostly children, in 2011. This has led to her current career as a narrator for the “Right Wing Book Club” (RWBC) in which she promotes nihilistic propaganda to radicalize up-and-coming “terror bros.” She reads instructional guides to prime potential “lone wolves”. And she has added a slew of mass-murderer manifestos to her collection of audiobooks, which she refers to as “the gospels”.  

The Left Coast Right Watch enumerates some of her dead-ender penpals.

“Humber’s rise through the ranks of Terrorgram brought her further into the fold of online extremists and put her in direct contact with Nazis like Luke Kenna, Michael Brown Jr., Brian Tierney, and Atomwaffen (AWD) founder Brandon Russell — all of whom were arrested in the past few months. While these four Americans weren’t arrested solely for their involvement in inciting acts of terrorism, some of their European counterparts have been convicted for the same activities that Humber engages in.”  

What is Humber’s endgame? What is the endgame of any of these horrible people? History shows that fascism lurks just under the surface of advanced democracies — that the veneer of civilization is thin. Tyranny, however, springs from the perversion of the political process, not from the violent machinations of keyboard warriors. 

Violence alone did not beget Naziism. It took a charismatic leader to convince enough Germans that Germany would only be great again if the authorities suspended the rule of law and shredded individual rights — not that Goebbels put it that way.

If these white supremacists and Neo-Nazis wanted to make a real difference, they should run for office and convince 35% of Americans to vote for autocracy — while the GOP fixes elections to allow a minority of Americans to upset 236 years of constitutional democracy.
