The radical rise and cultish fall of the Black Hammers

Critics warn that Atlanta-based extremist group is abusive, dangerous

Last month, Gazi Kodzo, the leader of the extremist sect the Black Hammer Party, led a small band of followers on a protest march through downtown Atlanta, threatening Mayor Andre Dickens and the Atlanta Police.

He announced that he was armed with “a lot of guns” and had security for anyone who tried to shut him up.

“Kill the police!” Kodzo shouted into a bullhorn as a follower with a cell phone camera beamed the march to the group’s YouTube channel. “To get free, you’ve got to kill the pigs.”

The Atlanta-based Black Hammer Party represents a new brand of radicalism on Georgia’s political fringes. Its formula has attracted hundreds of followers across the country as the group experienced a meteoric rise the past two years with chapters forming from New York to Los Angeles.

The group mixes Black nationalist rhetoric and a revolutionary message with hot-button issues like anti-vaccine myths and election conspiracies. Led by its flamboyant, erratic commander, who is ever-present on YouTube, Instagram and Facebook, Black Hammer has melded its Marxist message with viral online strategies of modern far-right populists.

This can’t be right because we all know that ‘white supremacist’ are the real issue. /s

He’s protesting CNN, has conspiracy theories about the election, sounds a bit like QAnon and has some kind of alliance with the Proud Boys. —Maybe it’ some kind of FBI sting?

Kill the police!” Kodzo shouted into a bullhorn as a follower with a cell phone camera beamed the march to the group’s YouTube channel. “To get free, you’ve got to kill the pigs.”

Or, you could get educated, learn a trade, start a career, raise a family, live a decent crime free life, andcontribute to the world around you.

Instead he’s taking the path of least effort, blaming his shortcomings on others and disrupting the lives of good people. Sad, pathetic and evil... Also for long line of dullards that are his followers- how does it feel to know you’re being used? Your great leader will make some money and gain notoriety, but you? You’ll end up in jail following a protest march that goes violent, possibly injured, but certainly used. Definitely a loser.

Big Tech oligarchs have no problem with allowing hate, as long as it’s the right kind of hate.

Big Tech oligarchs have no problem with under the table govt. dollars, as long as it’s the right kind of BIG dollars.

Fixed it.

As the breakdown of American culture starts intensifying, we will see more and more of these fringe groups arise, warlords, who will amass followers and power to carve up pieces of the shattered society. Meanwhile, the majority of Americans who believe in the rule of law, will helplessly ride that rule of law down into oblivion. As Mark Levin and Sean Hannity repeatedly say, violence is never right, even when used in societal and cultural self-defense.

It doesn't fit the media narrative that the most dire threat to American democracy is White Supremacy:

The subway suspect is a black supremacist. The Waukesha killer is a black supremacist. The guy who tried to assassinate a mayoral candidate is a black supremacist. The man who murdered a capitol police officer was a black supremacist. In summary, white supremacy is the problem.

This whole thing is likely an FBI/CIA false flag operation.

WOW, that's so profound. They must be deep thinking geniuses.

More bread and circuses for the peanut gallery from the phony chest pounding Fox News sock puppets.

Doing all they can to protect their cushy jobs and retirements by deflecting from the 2020 rigged election and all the audits/investigations from several states.
