Our team at @RevontuletIntel has been tracking the violence following the attack in Southport on the 29th of July and its traction in the global extremist ecosystem.
I shared some notes with @Bloomberg here:

Social movements do not appear overnight, and while Social media contribute to coordination and amplification they depend on offline facets - which is why we at @RevontuletIntel always take the approach of studying networks as they operate across both online and offline spaces.
Merseyside is a place I call home.
The attack in Southport on Monday hit me hard. Attacks on kids always do.
At @RevontuletIntel, we monitor the situation, the riots, ties to influence efforts, and extremist networks and sentiments.

Of the victories of the week, the U.S. just designated the Nordic Resistance Movement as a terrorist organization. I hope this will lead to a better understanding of the global significance of the group and the threat it poses to local & global security.

Rebranding to a Finnish name was made extra special this week by the U.S. Department of State announcing the designation of the Nordic Resistance Movement as a terrorist entity. Finland was the first country to designate the group and ban it in 2019.
We're excited for the new branding from our friends at @RevontuletIntel and look forward to keep working together to build a safer world for all and expanding our portfolio of shared work and projects going forward!
This rebrand was a collective process for the team, many of us liked different shades, so we decided to make two versions of our logo. #everybodywins
Which do you prefer?
