Preamble
“Longneck” is an unofficial designation for a specific, unidentified member of the Nationalist Social Club of New England. He is notably aggressive, and has taken part in at least one violent assault on antifascists in Maine.
This dossier’s remit revolves around collecting information about “Longneck” and cataloging his major activities, and will be updated should his identity become public information in the future.
Changes since last revision will be highlighted as such. Notes and citations will be provided throughout the document in the form of links to external websites, represented by bracketed numbers. Wherein a set of brackets contains a symbol other than a number, this is meant to represent either a physical document with no online copy (such as a police report or court case), or a database that cannot/will not be cited in a specific manner (such as the ADL’s HEAT Map, or social media accounts operated by known fascists). Find these corresponding citations in the “External citations” section.

On June 18th, members of NSC attempted to disrupt a Drag Queen Story Hour at the Teatotaller in Concord NH. “Longneck” was present. A later propaganda video release shows a confrontation between understandably angry locals and several members as NSC left the Teatotaller, including “Longneck,” who verbally harassed a young woman. [∗] [1] [Speculative: His outfit is different. Given this event occurred not even a week after this dossier’s initial release, it’s safe to assume that his change in wardrobe is in response to being tracked here. It’s a shame visual identifications are just as much about posture and behavior as they are about outfits. As long as he’s an aggressive neo-Nazi dickhead, I’ll continue to track him.]

Quotes
Quotes from any member of NSC are to be taken with a grain of salt, given the need to maintain nonviolent optics and the willingness to contradict their practical actions with their party line. It should be noted that the only known statements “Longneck” has made in this section were recorded in his capacity as an NSC member at their events, and are likely more reflective of who he is than statements made by most other members.
