Review of 'Culture Warlords' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

This is more a compilation of essays rather than a cohesive book, and while it derails too much to the personal on the author side, it shows devastating proof of how the hate support groups organise in the Internet depths.

I think the title is not really accurate and a bit bait when they refer to “dark web”, as obscure Telegram chats and Facebook groups do not really qualify as dark web in my opinion. In that aspect I found the reading and investigation quite superficial.

Overall is a quick read and brings you up to speed on white supremacist groups, their origins and attitudes, specially in the US.

Note: I did read the Spanish translation of this book, which I found quite inaccurate at stages.
