In March, @AntifaGarfield identified violent neo-nazi of NSC-131/possible Capitol rioter Liam MacNeil of Waltham, MA, aka Amerikan Werewolf, as a student at @UMassLowell.

He’s still there, so call the UML Director of Student Conduct & Prevention at 978-934-5328 to let them know!

You can read @AntifaGarfield‘s original dox below. Please note in particular MacNeil’s history of martial arts training, multiple instances of vandalism across New England, and of course that graphic design is his passion.

Anti-racist Redditors in Liam’s hometown of Waltham are concerned he has so far avoided consequences for his fascist views, saying “people who went to WHS with Liam commented that everyone knew he was a racist but adults did not take it seriously.”

(You can insert the obvious joke about the concept of “anti-racist Redditors” here)

In these clips from an NSC Telegram livestream, archived by @waltham_s, Liam (the one in the same frame as Chris Hood) brags about the lack of consequences following his doxxing.

NSC-131 started publicly asserting themselves around Boston last summer, as documented here by @Danny__McDonald in the @BostonGlobe (featuring the expertise of @PRAEyesRight’s @benlorber8)

NSC, and Liam specifically, has bragged about attending the Capitol riot in DC. The FBI has apparently not followed up. @BMakuch reported on this in @ViceNews in March:

Again, please let UML know that they have a student who is a neo-nazi organizer and Capitol rioter. If you cannot make a call – or want more numbers to call! – please email or call the STUDENT conduct reporting channels listed here.

EDITOR’S NOTES – JANUARY 8TH, 2023: According to Phillip Martin of WGBH MacNeil dropped out of UMass-Lowell due to social pressure sometime before May 2022, and is currently living out of his parents’ home in Waltham MA.

Looks like Chris Bartley’s planning his grand re-entry to the Boston fash scene at Super Happy Fun America’s “Restore Sanity” rally on Saturday.

Let’s refresh our memories about why he sucks, and then we’ll make sure he feels very unwelcome this weekend.

Way back in the day (meaning in 2017), Bartley used to run with “Anticom,” the right-wing ripoff of “antifa,” which organizes* against communists.** Unicorn Riot has more here.

*organizes = fantasizes about killing
**communists = anyone left of Ronald Reagan

Boston Anticom’s biggest moment was when Bartley, along with former New England Patriot Front leader Chris Hood & unremarkable Anticom-turned-PF goon Matthias Thorpe, crashed Mark Bray’s event at the Harvard Coop, & Thorpe abjectly lost the fight he picked.

We’ve posted a bit on both Hood and Thorpe before, because they were part of the same Patriot Front crew that Noah Bogosh ran with, until Hood broke up the family by embezzling. Thread on them both here:

At the same time he was involved with “Anticom,” Bartley was also VP of the UMass Boston chapter of TPUSA, Charlie Kirk’s laughingstock of an astroturf organization. Here we see student-era Bartley posing with Resist Marxism founder Kyle “Based Stickman” Chapman.

Bartley was a regular at Resist Marxism’s events for about two years. Here he is at their violent disruption of the 2019 Women’s March, looking like the Michelin Man in a gray puff coat:

He definitely wasn’t there at random. You can spot him behind the Trump flag in this lineup, standing next to Michael Moura. Other notables in this photo include Mark Sahady (2nd from left), John Camden (in the middle, helmet), and Brandon Navom (right of Camden).

Also pictured: Bruce Burleson (far left), Mark Sahady (to the right of Burleson), Dan Gilby of the Patriot Saints (squatting to the left, helmet and III% patch), Michael Moura (second to Sahady’s direct right, red baseball cap and shades), Patrick Soutter (high center, behind Bartley), George Avery of American Guard RI (standing, center, to the right of Bartley), John Camden of American Guard NH (standing to the right of Avery, wearing a helmet and making the OK sign), Luke Ballesteros of AntiCom (squatting in the center, unmasked, below Avery), and Brandon Navom (standing to the right of Camden, beard, unmasked). The photo itself was likely taken by Grace Cook.

You can read more about that day here:

We threaded on Mike Moura (4th from left, red hat, douchey grin, standing right next to Bartley like they’re buddies) back on his birthday, because he is an abusive piece of shit.

On a lighter note, the hideous gray coat also made an appearance at the Berklee debate debacle (debatcle?) in December 2018. You can see Bartley chatting with some PF guys, even though Mark Sahady’s big dumb face blocks most of the shot.

There is no full documentation of just what a hilarious comedy of errors this “debate” was, but there’s a good summary in this article from Boston Solidarity Against Hate.

Bartley was last seen in the world of Boston fash organizing as the first “gay ambassador” to the Straight Pride Parade, about a year ago, when Resist Marxism rebranded into Super Happy Fun America. He was… not real good at his job.

Bartley dropped out about two months before the parade went off, to be replaced by Anthony Tamagna, and has spent most of the past year doing… well, we don’t really know, he wasn’t openly fashing so we left him alone! That’s the deal.

But now he is starting up with the fashing again, which brings us to Saturday, and Super Happy Fun America’s anti-BlackLivesMatter rally. Boston Solidarity Against Hate is hosting the counterdemo — will you be there to yell at Chris to fuck off back home?

Noah W. Bogosh

Last week, Patriot Front’s Noah Bogosh was arrested in Brookline for stickering city property while high.

Noah was also part of the PF group that tried to crash the March Against Cages last year.

Let’s take a closer look at Noah and his friends.

Noah, the son of a pastor, spent his teen years in Florida—first home-schooled, then at FSU—making him an official Florida Man. He has a DUI in Florida, which is boring by Florida Man standards, but does give us some additional information, like what he looks like.

On August 4, 2019, Noah was part of a group of 8 Patriot Front members who attempted to disrupt the Boston March Against Cages, an anti-ICE demonstration.

Noah’s the big one.

The anti-ICE protesters quickly surrounded Patriot Front and backed them onto the Orange Line, where they stood around looking awkward about being trapped on a train in masks.

The guy dramatically clutching his chest is Chris Hood.

Hood was the leader of the Boston chapter of PF at the time (he has since been kicked out for stealing their print shop money to buy weed). He had been arrested earlier in the year on a weapons charge while posting racist flyers in East Boston.

Hood was also part of Boston’s supposedly not-fascist Resist Marxism, whose main organizers are now Super Happy Fun America, which organized the Straight Pride Parade.

ThinkProgress (RIP) documented Hood’s ties to RM back when it was active as RM.

The guy behind Bogosh in the Unicorn Riot photo—dressed the same, basically looks like a slightly smaller version of him—is Matthias Thorpe.

Here he is seig-heiling at the March Against Cages, and here’s what he looks like unmasked

With Hood, Thorpe was also in Resist Marxism before its rebrand, right from its early days in 2017.

North Shore Antifa’s got photos of him with Samson Racciopi, Garrett Kirkland, and other known fashy dipshits from back before he was ID’d:

Thorpe was also involved with Anti-Communist Action, a neo-Nazi organization that attended Unite the Right in 2017.

In late 2017, Thorpe, accompanied by Hood and TPUSA affiliate Chris Bartley, crashed a Mark Bray book signing at the Harvard Coop, went out and picked a fight, lost it, and then whined about it on Periscope.

Patriot Front has supposedly prioritized keeping its members’ identities secret above all other aspects of organizing, so… nice job, guys.

They all do some dumb shit that ends up exposing themselves eventually. And when they do, we’ll make sure to put it on blast.

Anyway, the point here is that Bogosh isn’t some random stoner with poor judgment who wandered into possession of some Patriot Front stickers. He’s definitely a Nazi who hangs out with other Nazis, and should be shunned from polite society.
