About Baked Alaska (activist) in brief
Anthime Joseph Gionet, known as Baked Alaska, is an American neo-Nazi, anti-semitic conspiracy theorist, and social media personality. He gained attention through his advocacy on behalf of alt-right and white supremacist ideology, and through his promotion of anti-Jewish conspiracy theories. He was arrested in January 2021 for livestreaming the storming of the U.S. Capitol building, in a violation of his release. He is also known for spearheading the #DumpKelloggs and #TrumpCup hashtag campaigns. Prior to his 2016 transformation into an alt- right activist, Gionset was a commentator for BuzzFeed, where he supported libertarian and progressive political positions and marched in support of Black Lives Matter. He claims to have left Buzzfeed and turned to the politics of Donald Trump and the alt-Right in rejection of \”political correctness\”.
In November 2019, he changed his politics again, professing far-right ideology and collaborating with the white nationalist Groyper movement. He then gained notoriety for his livestreams, in which he would harass or assault bystanders, resulting in an assault charge in December 2020. In July 2017, he promoted a book, Meme Magic Revealed, through Amazon. The book was removed due to its use of Pepe the Frog on the cover due to a copyright violation due to the cover’s use of the Pepe Frog. In February 2017, Gionets called for a boycott of Netflix in response to the announcement of Dear White People. He claimed that the show was “white” and promoted white genocide and white genocide. In August 2017, at the Unite the Right rally, he marched and chanted, ‘Hitler did not replace us, nothing did wrong, nothing’
