Scott Ernest

Scott Ernest is a former white nationalist recruiter and activist, most notable for being a moderator on the white nationalist forum Stormfront, as well as a recruiter for the now-defunct organisation Pioneer Little Europe Kalispell. He was also a member of the Oath Keepers, Asatru Folk Assembly, and several other groups. He exited the white nationalist movement in 2016 due to getting disgusted with the negativity and violence in the movement, especially because he had met mass murderers over the 12 years that he was involved. Scott currently runs the non-profit NGO, the Center for Extremism Prevention and Intervention x Hands of Eir, which he founded to help people leaving far-right extremist movements. He specialises in creating a safe space for LGBTQ+ people who have found themselves in such movements, and has himself come out as queer. Scott is back in Montana after receiving a degree elsewhere and is a current MSW student at the University of Montana, while he resides in an RV in the Flathead.
