*** "One of the marvels of this furious book is how insolent and
funny Lavin is; she refuses to soft-pedal the monstrous views she
encounters." - The New York Times "Shocking, angry, funny and
wise... Talia Lavin takes no prisoners." - Danny Wallace,
bestselling author of Yes Man "Lavin writes like her hands are on
fire, forcing us to take a hard look at our ugliest truths." -
Pamela Collof, The New York Times Magazine & Pro Publica White
supremacists, Incels, White nationalists, National Socialists,
Proud Boys, Christian extremists... In order to showcase their
behaviour in their natural habitat, Talia Lavin goes undercover
online as a blonde Nazi babe, a forlorn incel and a violent Aryan
femme fatale. Lavin is every fascist's worst nightmare. She is
loud, Jewish and unapologetically anti-racist, with the
investigative skills to expose online hatemongers. While searching
the dark web, she discovers a whites-only dating site, a popular
extremist YouTube channel run by a teenager, the everyday heroes of
the anti-fascist movement and much more. Lavin then turns the lens
of anti-Semitism, racism, and white supremacy back on itself in an
attempt to dismantle the online hate movement from the inside.
Shocking, humorous, and merciless in equal measure, Culture
Warlords explores some of the vilest subcultures on the Web - and
shows us how we can fight back. Perfect for fans of Louis Theroux,
Jon Ronson and Michael Moore, Lavin's debut book is a seamless
balance of hard-hitting research, humour and shocking stories. It
is a fascinating expose of the dark web and how it harbours the
rage and views of far-right extremists today.
