Twitter has banned the account of Bronze Age Pervert (often abbreviated as BAP), the pseudonymous author of the influential Nietszchean manifesto Bronze Age Mindset. BAP has temporarily moved his communications to his Telegram channel.
One of the few pseudonymous authors to break into the mainstream in recent years, BAP has been praised by a wide range of voices on the right and published by the American Mind, a publication of the Claremont Institute. In the article, BAP said attempts to label him a member of the far-right or “alt right” were “misleading.”
While condemning him as “far right,” the far-left New Republic admits his writing is “artfully penned.” Former National Security Council spokesman and political scientist Michael Anton has said BAP’s book “speaks directly to a youthful dissatisfaction.”
