Cyber-Patriots Christian Patriots account for the largest portion of the white supremacist movement in the United States. They also maintain the largest and most influential presence in cyberspace by organized white supremacists. The role the Internet and other computer resources play for Christian Patriots, however, has largely been ignored in studies of cyberhate. Much like their attempted forays into the counter-culture and New Age groups, Patriots have actively attempted to recruit from the Hacker subculture. The Christian Patriot vision of cyberspace revolves around the creation of a white Christian Republic.
Patriots employ cyberspace as a way to promulgate their numerous quasi-governmental institutions.
All of these items serve as kernals of this new white Christian republic. A vivid example is that of the Republic of Texas , whose Web site contains listings of governmental officers and a new constitution. Even the Colton, Oregon-based Patriot singer Carl Klang is now on the Internet, with a Web page featuring sample songs and order forms. Despite the relative decline and the fracturing within the contemporary Ku Klux Klan, some organizers have tried to bring their burning crosses to the vrtual community. The most insideous example of klansmen shedding thier sheets in cyberspace may be that of David Duke, who currently has a web page devoted to his U.S. Senatorial campaign.
