The @meme_america account promoting #VerifiedHate was previously run by "Millennial Matt." It's a stage name used by Holocaust denying white supremacist Matt Colligan, a Unite the Right marcher.

Matt Colligan is pretty comfortable waving a swastika flag, as reported by @crislopezg mediamatters.org/blog/2017/10/1…
#VerifiedHate has some significant reach in Trump circles that goes a little beyond Colligan's usual audience of anti-Semitic NEETs. The planning of it was chronicled by @chick_in_kiev: mediamatters.org/blog/2018/08/0…
Sometimes it’s helpful to get perspective by looking at what the other side is doing. So, we’re going to take a foray into the dark side. We’re going to look at two hashtags: #killTrump and #assassinateTrump. You’ll notice something interesting about these hashtags.
They don’t show up automatically as you’re typing them in, like normal hashtags do. However, they’re both there and both active. #killTrump has been around since 2011!. #assassinateTrump has been around since 2015. All the screenshots I will post are from active accounts.
Neither the accounts nor the hashtags have been removed from Twitter. Many conservatives are familiar with Twitter’s rules, because they keep bumping into them. Account deletions and account suspensions are common for conservatives. Twitter’s rules are quite clear.
Not only does @TwitterSupport give blue checkmarks to Hateful racists like Sarah Jeong but they also allow Verified Antifa leftists to openly Dox people and attack their 3 year old children. This is pure evil.

I see so many " Conservatives " avoid Retweeting this because he is a so called Nazi. Shame on you !!! Do you not see the pattern yet? They label anyone a Nazi as a pretext to ruin their lives. Did you not see a black woman @RealCandaceO get called a white supremacist by a mob?
Today the radical left is doxing a "White Supremacist" tomorrow they will dox your local pastor for preaching on a controversial issue about sexuality!!!! Mark My words !!! Fight back now or bow the knee like a coward !!!

The #VerifiedHate hashtag has nothing to do with a 4chan post.
It DOES have something to do with the fact that 15,000 death threats against the President of the United States were reported to the Secret Service on this platform alone with #AssassinateTrump and #KillTrump hashes

This account is conspiring to detract from legitimate concerns the Twitter user community is voicing over hate speech, death threats, uncivil discourse, harassment and platform abuse by some verified and anti-Trump users on Twitter archive.is/Xcfiz

#VerifiedHate
Over the last several days, a new hashtag has appeared and propagated on Twitter: #VerifiedHate. The concept seems to be to attack verified (blue-check) accounts that are theoretically promoting hate against white people.
We downloaded recent tweets containing the #VerifiedHate hashtag. We found 18092 tweets from 9747 accounts - the first tweet is in the wee hours of the morning on August 5th, and the hashtag takes off on the evening of August 7th.
This hashtag campaign appears to have been planned on other platforms in two stages. First, we have this post on Gab from 8/5, which is within minutes of the first tweet from @Keque_Magus. It's followed by plenty of additional Gab discussion promoting #VerifiedHate.
Fact: if this tweet were about any other race, this person would be removed from twitter.
