Asheville, NC: Antifascist Flyering Leads to Firing of Neo-Nazi “Cesar Adolfo”

Over the past several weeks, Asheville Anti Racism working together with other local anti-fascist crews put the spotlight on a top commander of the now defunct fascist organization, the Traditionalist Workers Party.

Asheville resident and TWP scumbucket, Cesar Armando Arvelo Santos, has actively been in National Socialist and white supremacist circles for many years, including working in conjunction with various KKK chapters, all Nationalist Front (NF) affiliated organizations, and the now defunct Traditionalist Workers Party. He’s been living in Asheville for the past few years, though he’s flown largely under the radar and evaded being pin-pointed by using various aliases and working behind the scenes. Most recently Santos coordinated logistics for the TWP for the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, VA last August. Before TWP had their hilarious implosion a few months ago, Cesar was the Region 2 Commander, overseeing memberships across several states across the southeast.

This dox came out less than a month before the second Unite the Right rally being planned by the same entities that organized the deadly gathering last year on August 12th. It is our hope that in exposing underground neo-Nazi organizers that we will deter their participation in the upcoming rally, putting a serious dent in far-right numbers on the street and their ability to commit violence again. It is also our intent to inform the local community here about the fascist scum hiding under rocks.

Caesar at Unite the Right

Cesar played a major role in coordinating and commanding the August 12^th rally last year that though ending up as a resounding loss for the fascists and racists, and also claimed the life of anti-racist protester Heather Heyer. According to Matt Parrott’s own account of the August 12^th rally, “Cesar Hess, a Regional Coordinator of ours who’s an experienced combat veteran, worked with the League, NSM, and other Nationalist Front groups to help create two shield walls.” Cesar can be seen in a number of photos and videos pointing and directing these shield walls, one being the same recently doxed WNC shitbird Christopher Pack was a part of. Cesar was also originally named in the Charlottesville lawsuit filed after the Unite the Right rally under the pseudonym “Cesar Hess.”

Cesar named in original Charlottesville lawsuit against ‘Unite the Right’ rally organizers and violence perpetrators.

He moved from Colorado Springs to North Carolina, and has since lived in West Asheville until relocating to South Asheville with his partner Carrie Lynn Pierce, and his two kids from a former relationship. He currently works for Champion Systems Inc., installing and servicing audio, visual and other electric systems in buildings in the surrounding area. Through this work, Cesar gets to infiltrate within the local working class community via construction sites and specifically targets the Latinx community here in WNC.

Cesar is a particularly scummy Nazi. He has an extremely complex narrative and manipulates it depending on who is around. For example, he has mentioned pulling the “brown card” and manipulating brown people around him to do things they wouldn’t normally do. With an extremely thick Venezuelan accent and brown skin, not only does it boggle the mind why Cesar would preach white supremacy but the fact that he is allowed in spaces founded on white supremacy is also perplexing while not unique as we have seen people of color working with neo-Nazis before . It seems that Cesar has wedged himself into these groups as some sort of “exception” to the rule. No matter how confusing, hypocritical or backwards this freaky sack of shit’s narrative appears, it is important to remember that racism, at it’s core, is an idea. Ideas can be created, perpetuated and shared by anyone. Therefore, Cesar is no exception.

Let’s not give this rotten slug a smile to hide behind, and reach out to each other to make sure we all know who Cesar really is and what he is really about. This public information has been compiled and delivered to you in order to share and inform with everyone! Do with it what you see fit, stay smart, remain careful, and don’t give this actual asshole a fucking inch. Not in our communities, job sites, or homes. ¡No Pasarán!

This flyering action was purposefully coincided with the International Day of Solidarity with Antifascist Prisoners on July 25th, as a show of solidarity via direct action in the fight against fascism, bigotry, and all forms of domination over others. Cesar has since the flyering and release of this information, has been terminated from his job, though will most likely seek similar work sooner.
