===National Youth Front===
From February to October 2015, Gage was chairman of the far-right National Youth Front (NYF), which until July 2015 was the youth wing of the neo-Nazi American Freedom Party (a.k.a. American Third Position), whose director is Kevin MacDonald. Gage replaced Caleb Shumaker as chairman once Shumaker was forced out of the group because of his interracial marriage.https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2015/02/06/meet-national-youth-front-new-racists-campus The AFP calls for halting "non-white immigration" into the US and claims to stand up for the "customs and heritage of the European American people". NYF promoted an identical white nationalist message as the AFP but mostly focused on recruiting young people at universities.https://www.adl.org/blog/racist-group-begins-youth-recruitment-effort Gage has described NYF's goal as "declaring our freedom from this oppressive, anti-white, globalist government that has been slowly subverting our country since the 1960’s"."https://www.statepress.com/article/2015/02/group-that-posted-anti-immigrant-anti-islamic-posters-on-asus-tempe-campus-speaks-out In April 2015, Gage contacted AFP attorneys and sent a letter to the Appalachian State University school newspaper warning of legal action after they had described his organisation in an article as a "neo-Nazi group" in response to the NYF putting up controversial posters at one of their campuses.http://web.archive.org/web/20150422041643/http://theappalachianonline.com/2015/04/15/neo-nazi-group-defends-white-privilege/ The newspaper subsequently changed their description of the NYF to "white nationalists" but pointed out they did not think describing the NYF as "neo-Nazis" was defamatory.https://archive.is/M3ANl Despite Gage's claim the NYF under his leadership was not a neo-Nazi group, one of its notable activists was seen wearing a black shirt with the symbol of the Greek neo-fascist Golden Dawn political party and punctuated one Facebook post with the neo-Nazi shorthand of "88!," i.e. "Heil Hitler".https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/national-youth-fronts-john-hess-cops-to-anti-white-fliers-targeting-asu-professor-6645167 In July 2015, Gage appeared on alongside white nationalist Kyle Hunt to discuss the National Youth Front.https://www.blogtalkradio.com/renegadebroadcasting/2015/07/13/the-solar-storm-angelo-gage-national-youth-front The video exposes Gage as extremely anti-Semitic.
Gage resigned from the NYF in October after the group faced various fundraising issues and a name change after a threatened lawsuit.Group Formerly Known as the National Youth Front in Disarray After a rather odd name change to The Dispossessed, the organisation became defunct shortly after. Gage has incorrectly claimed the NYF under his leadership never had anything to do with the AFP when it was, in fact, the youth wing of the AFP until July 2015, meaning Gage's leadership of the NYF had strong ties to the AFP for about 5 months.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcRBTM31_fk Gage is also a former member of the AFP and had pursued elected office in 2014 in New Jersey as part of the American Freedom Party; during his campaign, he appeared on the radio program of white supremacist David Duke. He was disqualified because of incorrectly-filed paperwork. At this time, Gage also hosted a program on the white nationalist website The White Voice. According to Right-Wing Watch:
===Stormfront===
Gage was a member and poster on Stormfront in the early-mid 2010s. In 2014, the Southern Poverty Law Center noted:
An account named "Angelo John Gage" was registered and active on Stormfront from September 2013 and November 2015 (Gage, however, apparently used a pseudonym in 2012 to post anti-Semitism). Under his real name at the time, he made dozens of posts promoting white nationalism and linked to his racist videos.https://archive.is/kt0eYhttps://archive.is/grPZP
Gage appeared at least once on Stormfront's radio as a guest.https://archive.ph/0EiF7
===Racist YouTube videos===
Around 2013, Gage started creating his own racist videos on YouTube, spreading the "anti-racist is a code word for anti-white" and "diversity is white genocide" mantras as well making videos such as "Make Whites Great Again",https://archive.is/TkDeT denying the Holocaust, and criticising what he calls international-jewry. In 2015, Red Ice Creations who interviewed Gage stated:
===Alleged recantation of white nationalism===
In April 2016, Gage deleted his YouTube content and said his white nationalist strategy had been a total failure:
He did not actually repudiate any of his racist or anti-Semitic views, but realised it would be impossible to gain political power promoting white nationalism because white nationalists perform poorly at the ballot box. Therefore, he changed his message to adopt right-wing populism views and support Trump. In a 2016 interview, Gage discussed "Trump’s pull to White interests and his ability to attract broad support from Americans through a simple, hard-hitting and emotionally appealing style."http://www.redicecreations.com/radio3fourteen/2016/R314-160427.php He later turned on Trump after the Syria airstrike, like most of the alt right.

In 2018, Gage and Kevin MacDonald were featured on the alt-right podcast Red Ice TV. In 2019, Gage started a new YouTube channel titled, Reality EngagedReality Engaged with Angelo John Gage and claimed in June 2020 on his website in a blog post titled "My Journey In and Out of the Rabbit Hole of Racism" to have finally repudiated racism and white nationalism.https://www.angelojohngage.com/rabbit-hole-of-racism (archived version) Despite claiming to change his mind on issues related to race, Gage in his blog post defends pseudoscientific "racial realism", writing: "you could compare the different races just like you could compare different dog breeds." This argument is a bad comparison.https://evolution-outreach.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12052-019-0109-y Gage, however, claims to have given up white supremacy and describes his new outlook at "trait realism":
In the same blog post, Gage clings to anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, still claims to oppose non-white immigration, and supports eugenics:
It, therefore, appears Gage has not much abandoned his racist views, if at all. Furthermore, he continues to associate with white nationalists and other far-right activists on this YouTube channel and defends most of their views. He also posts the same "white genocide" mantra (re-worded as "diversity kills"), anti-Semitism, and retweets alt-righters on his Twitter profile — so the leopard hasn't changed his spots. In February 2020, Gage posted a YouTube video "My Beef with Israel Explained"My Beef with Israel Explained and has increasingly become even more anti-Semitic, for example claiming The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion is real.https://www.israellycool.com/2020/08/23/antisemite-angelo-john-gage-is-shocked-no-jews-have-come-to-his-defense/
In May 2020, Gage said he was receiving online threats from anti-fascist activists. He posted:

Davis, YouTube deletes neo-Nazi account that featured an interview with a former member of Congress. Business Insider, 9 February 2021. 
In November 2023, Gage denied being a white nationalist despite being one.https://archive.is/All4r He is quick to change the topic when his post history on Stormfront is mentioned. 
Gage has interviewed white nationalist activists, including Kevin MacDonald and on his old YouTube channel Reality Engaged. 
====Anti-Semitism and racism====
Much of Gage's Twitter feed consists of anti-Semitic content and his criticism of Zionism about which he has an obsession. So he hasn't changed his ways.
In August 2020, a blogger and lawyer David Lange compiled much evidence that Gage is still a virulent anti-Semite. In response, Gage began falsely accusing the blogger of harassment.Antisemite Angelo John Gage Accuses Me of Harassment and Asks His Followers To Report Me to Authorities Gage is known to delete racist tweets and then deny he made them, despite there often being screenshots prior to deletion. Despite him deleting all his white nationalist videos from YouTube, some have resurfaced on BitChute such as "Make Whites Great Again" which consists of Gage ranting like a lunatic for 2 minutes about how to save the white race by learning self-defense, eating healthy and reading David Duke's books.https://www.bitchute.com/video/Ut92xU2Dyj48/
Gage continues to post anti-Semite and racist content on Twitter. Many of his offensive tweets have been documented by the website Stop Antisemitism.

==Other beliefs==
===Islamophobia===
Gage is an Islamophobe who, when chairman of the NYF in 2015, distributed Islamophobic leaflets at university campuses against Muslim immigration to US.https://www.statepress.com/article/2015/01/anti-islamic-immigration-posters-found-around-asus-tempe-campus/
In 2018, Gage called Muhammad a "war-mongering, genocidal pedophile" and described Islam as "man-made nonsense".https://www.actualized.org/forum/topic/19921-understanding-islam-what-almost-no-critic-understands-about-jihad/?page=2#comment-212334
However, in 2020, Gage toned down his Islamophobic views and has tried to forge allies with Palestinians (the vast majority of whom are Muslim) who share his anti-Zionist views:
===Anti-immigration===
When he was openly a white nationalist, Gage opposed non-white immigration into Western countries based on racist conspiracy theories; in 2013, Gage, for example, in a video said that white genocide is underway as a result of 3rd world immigration to Europe and the US. Although the video was deleted in 2016, it is still quoted on the neo-Nazi VNNforum:
As of 2020, Gage continues to hold the same anti-immigration views, but realises to make them more palatable and not sound racist, he now talks about economic issues rather than race (this tactic is used by many other white nationalists, including Nick Fuentes):

===Dietary views===
Gage claims to have eaten meat, eggs, and dairy for 36 years until converting to a vegan diet in June 2020.The Problem with Veganism Gage used to formerly criticize veganism and posted photographs of his favourite meat dishes on Twitter. He removed all these in July 2020 and began to describe himself as a vegan on social media.https://archive.is/khywn However, Gage admitted he was stilling eating meat if someone else pays for it, so he was not a vegan:
Gage admits his position "would be rejected by most vegans."
In December 2020, Gage claimed to have entirely given up veganism and was buying and eating meat again.https://web.archive.org/web/20201201214230/https://twitter.com/AngeloJohnGage/status/1333888976734859268
In January 2023, Gage described his diet as follows:
Gage now attacks veganism as being left-wing on his Twitter. It's obvious that he was never a vegan, but just claimed he was to seek attention.
== Israel–Hamas war ==
Recently, Gage on his Twitter (X) account has been using the to promote anti-Semitism:
A recent article notes that Gage and other far-right Twitter hate speech accounts are using the "war in the Middle East as a prime opportunity for a cynical rebrand".
==2025 crazy rant==
In January 2025 after being unbanned on X.com, Gage posted a crazy video of himself complaining that Palestinians had "stabbed him in the back" by calling him a white supremacist and neo-Nazi because he wants to protect the future existence of whites. The rest of his video was a paranoid anti-Semitic rant about how he believes Jewish people are trying to wipe the white race out.https://x.com/LucasGageX/status/1885337687759966233 archived online.
