Selected Quotations
Full moon and new moon
Will Duffy: What is a full moon and what is a new moon on your model?
Austin Whitsitt: I think it's probably like a magnetic cycle, and just like the center of a ferrocell image of a magnet, it's just completely black. It's actually just pure inertia in the center in the ferrocell image of a magnet. I think that's what it is. It just actually goes into its inertial state and then charges back up and once it becomes, like, aetherically displaced again, you start to see it charge up throughout its cycle, and then it goes back. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Southern compasses
Austin Whitsitt: Apparently southern compasses are a psyop.
Misogyny And Domestic Abuse
Evidence of Misogyny and Abuse
Witsit makes misogynist statements. Furthermore, police arrested him for assaulting his partner in 2023. Court records indicate Witsit made hostile and aggressive gestures. He then spit on his partner's face without consent. Court Record
On March 18, 2025, a surveillance video surfaced from Witsit's residence dated December 24, 2024. In the video, Witsit verbally abuses his partner and gestures violently towards her. Some of the verbal abuse Witsit gives to his partner in the video includes claiming to hate her, calling her names, claiming she likes it rough, and punching the nearby furniture.
Statistics About Children In Households With Intimate Partner Violence
Witsit claims to have two children making the accusations of domestic abuse particularly worrisome.
- Between 30% and 60% of children with an abusive parent ends up being abused themselves. Source
- Children are 15 times more likely to experience abuse overall when subjected to a household with interpersonal violence between the parents. Source
- Around 20% of intimate partner violence that go to court involve a child witness. Source
Misogynistic Video About Blue Origin Flight
On April 18, 2025, Witsit released a live stream video titled “Powerful Feminists Defeat Sexism by Pretending to go to Space w/ Blue Origin” in which he talked about a recent Blue Origin flight crewed by women. He repeatedly mocked and denied the oppression of women and claimed women receive special privileges. He then proceeded to call the women “bimbos” and make fun of their appearance. Austin finally claimed that men should be leaders and women should follow. He uses homophobic slurs throughout the video.
Snake Oil Salesman
Witsit tries to sell snake oil to his viewers. Austin owns the website, Aetheric State, where he sells an electrolyte drink mix. The manufacturer suggests the drink mix might cure cancer. Witsit charges $160 USD for the mix, however, it costs less than $15 USD to make the exact same drink mix using ingredients bought from the supermarket. Globesec wrote an article referring to the drink mix as "Aetherade."
White Supremacism
Austin co-hosted a podcast entitled 'White Families, White Nation' in 2024 alongside a number of other believers in ethnic and racial determinism such as host Brother Nathaniel. Source
"Whitsitt: You have a problem with Jewish supremacy but white people need to also take responsibility. That's why I said, nobody put a gun to your head and said you can't have babies. No one put a gun to your head and said this take out this loan, no one put a gun to your head and said 'go get addicted to porn'. Those are all weapons of Jewish supremacy. But it requires consent. So individual responsibility, collective responsibility is a major part of it. I think the conversation calling out this power structure IS ALREADY BEING NORMALIZED. Just go look look at X [social media]. It's al-- too late, like, the cat's already out of bag in my opinion. It's much more about collectivizing the reaction. Right, instead of kind of letting it -- get out of control."
He continues to 'hang out' on social and streaming platforms into 2025 with antisemitic content creators. Source
