I will help you expand article and put more sources. This guy is doing the alt-center thing.Dave Truck Driver (talk) 14:09, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

I guess I'll work on this, once it's more detailed and revised it can be moved to main space.Dave Truck Driver (talk) 16:26, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Can we expedite this one out of drafts? — Unsigned, by: FarmerJess / talk / contribs

It needs a lot of work before it can be moved. I will add a lot to it over the next few days. Dave Truck Driver (talk) 16:43, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Just actually came here to look up this dude. If this can be got into shape it'll be a useful addition to the wiki - David Gerard (talk) 22:20, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

@Bongolian @Johns you may want to delete this draft someone else wrote. New article is Richard Hanania. Griffina (talk) 17:23, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Done. Bongolian (talk) 17:33, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Adding[edit]

Will add a lot more to article. Griffina (talk) 18:23, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Appearance[edit]

I disagree with the practice of commenting on an individual's appearance. I detest Hanania but I think you should just post his image and let others judge his appearance, which has nothing to do with the terrible positions he holds. Pinkerite (talk) 06:20, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

@Pinkerite I couldn't agree more. If you come across any text that calls people ugly or suggests that they are, don't hesitate to remove it. Spud (talk) 08:54, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Thanks! Pinkerite (talk) 17:49, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

Richard Hanania exposed as a white supremacist and anti-semite[edit]

https://news.yahoo.com/richard-hanania-rising-wing-star-191542593.html

Richard Hanania, now a prominent right-wing pundit, wrote articles under a pen name where he asserted that some races are inferior to others.

A prominent conservative writer, lionized by Silicon Valley billionaires and a U.S. senator, used a pen name for years to write for white supremacist publications and was a formative voice during the rise of the racist “alt-right,” according to a new HuffPost investigation.

Richard Hanania, a visiting scholar at the University of Texas, used the pen name “Richard Hoste” in the early 2010s to write articles where he identified himself as a “race realist.” He expressed support for eugenics and the forced sterilization of “low IQ” people, who he argued were most often Black. He opposed “miscegenation” and “race-mixing.” And once, while arguing that Black people cannot govern themselves, he cited the neo-Nazi author of “The Turner Diaries,” the infamous novel that celebrates a future race war.

Major update needed[edit]

Page needs a major update adding the proof he is a white nationalist, white supremacist, anti-Semite, etcetc. Some of his racist comments are quoted here 138.197.116.254 (talk) 01:08, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Hanania was one of the first authors for Richard Spencer's AlternativeRight.com. Johns (talk) 17:35, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Holocaust denier too?[edit]

His writings from 2011 seem to come close to Holocaust denial for example describing the Holocaust as a "religion".

Even worse, Jewish organizations have turned the Holocaust religion into a criminal Industry. In fact, they may have pulled off the biggest robberies in human history.

Just added it to the article. Carthage (talk) 20:28, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
He also identifies as a "race realist" and supports the pseudoscience of Richard Lynn [1], it's probably worth adding a section on his views on racialism pseudoscience. Johns (talk) 23:15, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
