  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Pat McMonigle expected to fight terrorists whose ideologies were known. He couldn’t have imagined the faceless, evil, violent nihilists he found online.

As an FBI agent for nearly 20 years, Pat McMonigle investigated national security crimes, was a hostage negotiator and Joint Terrorism Task Force coordinator, trained dozens of other special agents, and was deployed three times to war zones overseas. But it was his investigation of an online cult fueled by an insidious, unspeakably evil ideology that led to the end of his law enforcement career.

That ideology is called 764, an online neo-Nazi group grounded in a nihilism and a perverse form of social Darwinism which encourages vulnerable young kids to release sexually explicit material, hurt themselves, and even die by suicide. And it is that ideology that the shooter at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Robin Westman, appears to have subscribed to based on the killer’s writings and activity online.

Westman appears to have supported the Order of Nine Angles, a Satanic right-wing group with ties to 764, though authorities haven’t yet confirmed this connection.

The investigation by McMonigle began in 2022 and involved a 13-year-old who was manipulated and coerced into dying by suicide, and recording it, by an online groomer and leader of 764. McMonigle said over the course of the investigation, he was forced to watch videos of dozens of kids being coerced into physically harming themselves, including watching the video of the 13-year-old child’s suicide at least half a dozen times.
