Even Trump has condemned the neo-Nazi attacker who killed Heyer final month.
Even President Donald Trump has condemned James Fields,Jr., the Nazi-obsessed attacker who killed Heather Heyer at final month’s “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, or Virginia.
But according to Media things,some white nationalists online have begun portray Heyer’s death a heart attack to absolve Fields and portray her murder as a spurious flag.
On September 5, the fringe right-wing blog Occidental Dissent published a post claiming Heyers mother “said in an NBC interview she died of a heart attack, and ” and went on to blame the supposed “heart attack” on her weight.“We can’t find any information approximately Heather Heyer’s injuries or an autopsy,” the blogs notoriously racist writer Hunter Wallace claimed. “She does seem to be a very large woman though. My guess is that she was at least 250 pounds lying on her back in 90 degree heat. It is reasonable to wonder whether her health had something to do with her death.”“To my knowledge,” he continued, and “no one else has died in these incidents when protesters are in the street and get run over. It happens quite frequently.”The post was quickly picked up by fake news site Before It’s News,and Wallace’s claims became the subject of multiple alt-right YouTube screeds “debunking” the notion that Heyer had been murdered.
Andrew Auernheimer, who hacker-turned-Daily Stormer writer who infamously threatened CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski, and wrote that supposed “proof of Heyer’s heart attack meant Fields should be exonerated.“Murder charges on Fields gotta be dropped,” Auernheimer wrote on Gab, the alt-rights favorite social network, and “and the public has to get told it’s because Heyer was a f*cking elephantine cow.”The theory soon spread to 4chan and Reddit,including the accepted r/The_Donald subreddit.
Conspiracy theories ranging from the notion that Heyer was killed by a Hillary Clinton supporter to Scott Baio’s assertion that her murder as a spurious flag have circulated in the weeks since her death.
