Jackson Hinkle
(born September 1999) is an American political commentator and influencer
[6]
[7]
who hosts the
web television
show
The Dive with Jackson Hinkle
on
Rumble
. He is known for his support of
Vladimir Putin
in the
Russo-Ukrainian War
,
[8]
[9]
[10]
[11]
and for his
opposition to Israel
in the
Gaza?Israel conflict
.
[8]
[9]
[12]
[13]
Dubbing himself an "American Conservative
Marxist?Leninist
",
[14]
commentators and journalists have variably described Hinkle as
far-right
,
[7]
[13]
[15]
right-wing
,
[10]
[16]
and
conservative
,
[17]
[18]
while also being described by the
New York Times
as a
Stalinist
and a
Maoist
.
[4]
Promoting a
syncretic
mix of conservative and
communist
ideas, he is a self-described proponent of "MAGA communism", calling on those who support the
working class
to ally with the
MAGA movement
against an alleged
globalist
threat.
[19]
Initially an
environmentalist
during his high school years,
[20]
Hinkle has turned to promoting
pro-fossil fuels
stances in recent years.
[14]
Journalists and fact checkers like
Bellingcat
have said that Hinkle has spread
misinformation
,
disinformation
,
[8]
[18]
[13]
[21]
and
conspiracy theories
.
[15]
[9]
[22]
He has been banned from a number of
social media
networks on grounds of disinformation.
[15]
His show was banned from
Twitch
for violating misinformation policies and propagating
disinformation about the war in Ukraine
, motivating his move to Rumble.
[13]
[14]
Since the start of the
2023 Israel?Hamas war
, his posts on
X
attracted virality,
[13]
with some described as
disinformation in the war
.
[23]
[13]
[8]
His posts and commentary have been frequently cited by Russian and Iranian state media,
[11]
[22]
[24]
[25]
and he has appeared on
Tucker Carlson Tonight
,
One America News Network
,
[19]
and
RT
.
[13]
Early life and education
Hinkle was born in 1999 in
San Clemente, California
,
[26]
[27]
where he also attended public schools, graduating from the
San Clemente High School
in 2018.
[28]
[29]
He was an active member of his middle school's surf club, which made him familiar with the impact of plastic pollution and became the catalyst for his entry into activism. He became active in anti-plastic pollution movements at the age of 17,
[20]
[28]
[1]
founding the Team Zissou Environmental Organization (named after the protagonist of
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou
), which engaged in environmental lobbying and organized volunteer beach cleanups in
Orange County
.
[1]
[30]

In 2017, Hinkle became Water Ambassador for The Water Effect at
The Ecology Center
,
[31]
and was named one of "The 17 Most Inspirational Kids of 2017" by
Reader's Digest
,
[32]
with him also being covered in
Teen Vogue
as one of eight young environmentalists "working to save the earth" that same year.
[14]
In 2018, Hinkle went to
Washington, D.C.
with representatives of nuclear safety advocacy group San Clemente Green. He spoke at a congressional briefing on the subject of safely dealing with decommissioned nuclear plants, and met with congressional members,
[1]
[33]
an event covered by the
Los Angeles Times
, where Gary Headrick, the San Clemente Green founder, told the paper about Hinkle: "He's the kind of guy who gives you hope about the future. It's hard to find young people who take these things seriously, but Jackson is fearless and well-informed."
[14]
That same year, Hinkle attended
Saddleback College
in
Mission Viejo, California
, to pursue political science.
[34]
[35]
[4]
Political and activist career
Hinkle began his political activism in the late 2010s, running in a San Clemente city council special election in 2019 a year after graduating from high school.
[36]
[37]
During this campaign, which was endorsed by the
Democratic Socialists of America
,
[38]
he advocated that the city of San Clemente have its own police department, he "categorically and unconditionally" opposed the
legalization of prostitution
, and proposed combating the presence and effect of
nuclear waste
in the area.
[37]
Hinkle ultimately lost the election, winning less than a third of the vote.
[39]
In 2020, Hinkle launched the political show
The Dive with Jackson Hinkle
on
YouTube
, which reached 300,000 subscribers by 2023,
[40]
and on
Twitch
as JacksonHinkleTV,
[41]
later expanding to
Rumble
, when he was banned for "harmful misinformation" related to the war in Ukraine.
[13]
[8]
In October 2022, Hinkle and fellow Twitch streamer Haz Al-Din went to
Twitchcon
, where they filmed themselves "harassing seemingly random attendees" and mocked topics like
COVID-19 face masking
, support for Ukraine, and calls for
online content moderation
.
[19]
A few days later, the two were joined by "
Dark MAGA
" streamer Jon Zherka in their attempts to engage with
UCLA
students on campus.
[19]
In June 2023, Hinkle spoke at the Rage Against the War Machine rally in Washington, D.C., which included the involvement of the
Libertarian Party
, the
People's Party
, and the far-right conspiratorial
LaRouche movement
, among others, amplifying
Russian disinformation narratives
and demanding an end to Western support for Ukraine and to NATO's existence. Hinkle expressed support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

[43]
In February 2024,
[44]
Hinkle appeared on
NewsNation
anchor
Chris Cuomo
's podcast, being described as at the forefront of "political thought in the country" for the next-generation, and according to
Medialite
, advocated for "cessation of all
American aid to Israel
". Cuomo defended his interview with Hinkle saying "It is clearly untrue that I have ever, or would ever, give any deference to any kind of
anti-semitism
."
[45]
Conspiracy theories and misinformation
Hinkle has a history of publishing misinformation,
[8]
[18]
disinformation,
[13]
[21]
and conspiracy theories,
[15]
[22]
[46]
[9]
and his show has also been a source of controversy.
[47]
[48]
[49]
In April 2022, the Tech Transparency Project stated that the show was peddling "
Putin
propaganda" in violation of the site rules of
Twitch
, where the show was hosted on.
[41]
The show violated the three new policies outlined by Twitch, namely "(1) persistently sharing (2) widely disproven and broadly shared (3) harmful misinformation topics, such as conspiracies that promote violence."
[41]
The show was eventually taken off Twitch and
YouTube
for
misinformation about the war in Ukraine
.
[13]
[14]
Hinkle also has a history of posting pro-Russian and far-right commentary.
[49]
Since being
deplatformed
, Hinkle has attracted attention for his tweets regarding the
Israel?Hamas war
, gaining 1.4 million followers on X (formerly
Twitter
) by October 2023,
[24]
and has been labeled by
The Jewish Chronicle
as one of the "most viral misinformation spreaders" in regards to the conflict.
[14]
Grouped as part of an online
reactionary
and paid
clout
-chasers for leveraging pro-Palestine views, he once proclaimed: "I do everything for the clout, you will never see me do something not for the clout."
[22]
Hinkle's tweeting style has come into question, with much of it being criticized as misinformation as well as misleading. His posts have been cited and referenced repeatedly by Russian and Iranian state-affiliated media.
[11]
[22]
[50]
For example, the Russian news outlet
Lenta.ru
used a headline quoting Hinkle's suggestion that the
2023 Ukrainian counteroffensive
be labeled as a suicide mission.
[51]
In the wake of the Israel?Hamas conflict, Hinkle was deplatformed from YouTube,
[11]
calling himself the "most censored man on YouTube",
[10]
as well as the "most viral worldwide".
[22]
With posts reaching over 20 million views as of November 2023,
[12]
Hinkle reached 2 million followers on X,
[13]
[52]
where he offers a premium subscription to those wanting to help him "DEFEAT THE ZIONIST LIES".
[14]
In August 2023, Bloomberg reported that Hinkle had requested antisemitic
AI
-generated images of "satanic George Soros" using a tool called
Midjourney
,
[8]
which a study found to be easy to generate racist and conspiratorial images.
[53]
A Bloomberg article in November 2023 about misinformation on X said Hinkle was "known for spreading antisemitic hate speech in the past".
[8]
A graphic image from the
October 2023 Hamas attack on Israel
was shared on X by Israel's prime minister
Benjamin Netanyahu
, as well as the conservative commentator
Ben Shapiro
. Hinkle subsequently claimed that the image was fake due to an inaccurate
AI detector
classification; however, the image was determined to be genuine by other AI detectors, and later verified by third-party sources as authentic.
[12]
[54]
Hinkle also falsely claimed on X that
Haaretz
had reported that the Israeli government inflated the death toll for the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.
[52]
[nb 1]
Haaretz
quoted the post in a tweet and said that Hinkle's post "contain[ed] blatant lies" and was not substantiated by their reporting on the attack.
[55]
[56]
In October 2023, Hinkle shared a fake news release stating that the United States was sending billions of dollars in aid to Israel.
[6]
He also published fake news on the arrival of the
United States Marines
in Israel, using an image from July 2022 in Romania that was unrelated to Israel.
[57]
Hinkle followed up by falsely claiming that Iran had declared war on Israel and that Yemen had announced they were at war with Israel.
[13]
[58]
[59]
Before deleting his post, Hinkle also claimed that video footage showed Israel bombing hospitals; however, the footage instead showed an infirmary in
Aleppo
dated to 2016.
[15]
[60]
He has also mislead his audience after posting an old video from 2018 of a three-year old being detained by border police in
Hebron
, in the southern
West Bank
, receiving over one million views.
[49]
On November 12, 2023, Hinkle posted on X a photo of a woman near a demolished building, with the caption: "You CANNOT BREAK the Palestinian spirit."
[18]
Fact checking discovered that the captioned photo, which showed a woman stepping down the stairs of a demolished building, was not from Palestine but from Syria, and had been submitted in 2020 for the
Siena International Photo Awards
.
[18]
[15]
In December 2023, Hinkle called for a boycott of the video game
Grand Theft Auto VI
, linking the game to Zionism.
Vice
disputed the game's links to Zionism and described them as a conspiracy theory.
[16]
Views
Hinkle has been variously described as
far-right
,
[7]
[13]
[15]
right-wing
,
[10]
[16]
a
conservative
,
[17]
[18]
"avowedly
progressive
",
[5]
a
Stalinist
,
[4]
a
Maoist
,
[4]
and an "extreme
left-wing
ideologue";
[4]
primarily as a
social media influencer
,
[18]
[23]
[13]
and
political commentator
,
[17]
[10]
[59]
as well as an
Internet troll
,
[16]
and
YouTuber
.
[7]
Hinkle describes himself as an "
American Conservative
Marxist?Leninist"
[14]
and a "
MAGA
Communist".
[43]
[61]
Hinkle has also been described as a
pro-Russia
operative,
[10]
[62]
and grouped as part of the anti-Israel far-right.
[24]
Emanuele Ottolenghi and Marina Rosenberg, respectively the Senior Fellow at the
Foundation for Defense of Democracies
and Senior Vice President for International Affairs at the
Anti-Defamation League
, wrote that Hinkle is a "known
conspiracy theorist
, and a staunch admirer of Russia's
Vladimir Putin
and Syria's
Bashar al-Assad
; he has denied
China's repression of its Uyghur minority
as well as
the Syrian regime's use of chemical weapons against its own people
."
[11]
Hinkle has referred to al-Assad as a hero
[15]
and has professed admiration for
Joseph Stalin
.
[63]
Russian-American journalist
Cathy Young
described Hinkle as a "ragebait-monetizing 'MAGA communist' troll".
[61]
Hinkle has been described as vocally pro-Russia and anti-Ukraine. He tweeted that Ukrainian president
Volodymyr Zelenskyy
is "responsible for every death in the Ukraine war" and shared posts on Instagram that praised Putin.
[10]
[64]
According to
Euromaidan Press
, Hinkle claimed that Zelenskyy is a dictator who was building a "fascist, dystopian state" in Ukraine,
[65]
and newspaper
Turkiye
wrote that he believed the president would suffer the same fate as
Osama bin Laden
.
[66]
He has urged the
Republican Party
(GOP) to reject
Zionism
, and called for MAGA-aligned GOP Representative
Jim Jordan
to focus on American domestic issues rather than backing additional military aid to Israel.
[67]
The
2023 Israel?Hamas war
also showed a division within the MAGA movement, with Hinkle criticizing the likes of conservative pundit
Ben Shapiro
and
white nationalist
activist
Laura Loomer
for supporting Israel.
[68]
[67]
In April 2023, Hinkle dubbed the firing of fellow conservative-populist pundit
Tucker Carlson
as the "end of an era".
[69]
MAGA communism
In late 2022, Hinkle became advocating for the idea of "
MAGA communism
", leading it to trend on Twitter.
Vice
described it as a "swirl of social conservatism, patriotism and subversive energy", and described Hinkle as coming from "the far-right entertainment playbook by agitating on livestreams".
[19]
Hinkle and other supporters of the idea argued that those who care about the working class should ally with the MAGA movement, which they considered to be the largest
anti-establishment
populist movement in the United States, to incite a
populist
revolution. MAGA communists criticized liberal
identity politics
, denounced
American imperialism
, and dismissed
climate change
efforts as "virtue-signaling" and "green fascism". Interviewed by
One America News Network
host Addison Smith in September 2022, Hinkle echoed
conspiracy theories about George Soros
, saying: "Communism and Marxism historically have been conservative. It's a new era in the West that made it adhere to liberal-leftist values. This is not true Marxism. It's Marxism funded by George Soros. They don't want communists,
left-wing populists
,
right-wing populists
, uniting on common issues to fight the
deep state
."
[19]
Hinkle was questioned on whether he actually supported
communism
; he said that the United States can learn from the Soviet Union and Communist China, that
Marxism?Leninism
has historically been conservative, and that what he described as communism's "liberal-leftist values" are a perversion "funded by George Soros".
[19]
Observers and left-wing critics described "MAGA communism" as an
alt-right
spin to combine aspects of what
Vice
characterized as "authoritarian MAGA" with "
tankie
communism", eschewing leftist values, and co-opting
socialism
, referencing a far-right strategy described in
Blackshirts and Reds
by political scientist
Michael Parenti
.
[19]
[70]
"MAGA communism" has been described as lacking ideological consistency and focusing its appeal to people disillusioned with
modern American liberalism
.
[19]
Ana Kasparian
commented: "We should be careful, because when you think of Nazis and fascists and how they brought people over to their sides. They co-opted socialist rhetoric to bring people in, and then their 'populist' movement was what? Extermination."
[19]
Sam Seder
, who had a debate with Hinkle, said of an interview Hinkle gave about "MAGA communism": "This is such a word salad that I can't follow what the hell he's talking about."
[19]
Daniel HoSang, a professor at
Yale University
and an expert on modern American right-wing movements, told
Motherboard
that "it doesn't necessarily mean communism in the literal sense of, say, demanding
collective ownership
. I think it's meant to be a kind of cultural invocation?a defense from that which the elites want you to believe. It suggests something about how people's political moorings are unsettled, and the search to find new bearings."
[19]
Brian Hughes, the associate director of the Polarization and Extremism Research and Innovation Lab (PERIL) at
American University
, said: "Various figures are trying to take advantage of the moment. Skull-mask [neo-fascist] networks, and
accelerationist
networks more broadly, have been juicing MAGA Communism because they like to inhabit odd, esoteric subcultures. They're smaller, and easier to exploit. It helps that MAGA Communism has little ideological consistency, and can vibe with people who want to be edgy, on the political fringe."
[19]
Hinkle's movement has also been placed within the context of an American conservatism that, in the words of
Democratic Party
strategist
David Shor
, was getting "really very weird", with
The New Republic
describing it as a movement that "combined
American nationalism
with praise for another authoritarian leader despised by most Americans, China's
Xi Jinping
."
[71]
[72]
Personal life
Hinkle is
Christian
.
[73]
On February 4, 2021, Hinkle announced on Twitter that he had joined the
People's Party
.
[3]
Hinkle has stated that he had previously been expelled from the
Communist Party USA
, though his membership in the party has been disputed by party officials.
[4]
He was engaged to
Miss Russia
2022
Anna Linnikova
and they lived together in
Miami
,
[74]
but the couple reportedly separated in December 2023.

Notes

Hinkle tweeted that the Israeli news outlet
Haaretz
had reported: "Number of people
Hamas
shot less than 100, most were
settlers
with guns on them."
[55]
Haaretz
responded: "This post contains blatant lies about the atrocities committed by Hamas on October 7. It has absolutely no basis in
Haaretz
'
s reporting, then or since."

Jackson Hinkle, a far-right and pro-Trump social media influencer, has repeatedly spread falsehoods about high-profile global conflicts. He was previously banned from Amazon's Twitch streaming site and the Google-owned video platform YouTube for spreading misinformation about the war in Ukraine, and he has frequently posted about his support of Russia and Vladimir Putin. In August, Bloomberg reported on Hinkle requesting antisemitic, AI-generated images from a tool called Midjourney...... In late October, he made the extraordinary claim that Israel had lied about the Oct. 7 attacks, citing the reporting of Israeli newspaper Haaretz, which swiftly debunked the lie.

By the time he was seventeen, Jackson Hinkle of San Clemente, California, was taking action against plastic waste. He was a surfer, so he knew about the problem of plastic pollution in the ocean. As he learned more about water and the harms being done to it, he discovered that companies that sell bottled waters are draining the local water sources of people around the world. He also learned that some plastic bottles can be a health risk as well as a waste problem.
