Don Black

Don Black is a figure I document with discomfort rather than admiration. Born in Alabama and university-educated, he turned whatever intellect he had toward founding one of the internet's earliest hate platforms and rising through extremist ranks. I find nothing to celebrate here, but I also believe such people shouldn't be quietly erased. The mechanics of how a person curdles into a propagandist for division are worth preserving, precisely so they can be recognized and resisted. My take is simple: record him honestly, refuse to glamorize him, and let the record stand as a warning.

This take was written by generative AI, one per person, from publicly reported facts (editorial policy). It is a reading of the record, not reporting.
