Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) sparked outcry after he shared an edited anime video on Sunday that depicts him swinging swords at President Joe Biden and killing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).

The lawmaker, who has been linked to white nationalist and other extremist groups , tweeted the opening credits from the Japanese animated series Attack on Titan but altered to show himself in the place of the main character and with the shows title in Japanese changed to Attack on Immigrants.

In the video, Gosar is depicted fighting the shows Titans with far-right Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.). In one scene, Ocasio-Cortezs face is superimposed on one of the Titans. Gosar slashes its neck and kills it. In another scene, Gosar swings two swords at an enemy with Bidens face edited onto it.

The clips are intermixed with real videos of U.S. Border Patrol officers corralling migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. The words drugs, crime, poverty, money, gangs, violence and trafficking flashed across the screen along with blood-splatter effects.

The Attack on Titan opening credits are often parodied as part of a meme .

Rep. Paul Gosar, DDS (@RepGosar) November 7, 2021

Gosar has been a dedicated purveyor of conspiracy theories and lies about the 2020 election and was named by organizers of the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol as one of a group of GOP lawmakers who communicated with them in the weeks before the attack, according to a recent Rolling Stone report. Gosar reportedly suggested to organizers that they would be offered a blanket pardon by then-President Donald Trump .

Gosar was denounced online for appearing to endorse violence with his Sunday tweet. Ocasio-Cortez responded with a thread noting his white supremacist ties and calling out House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) for failing to rein him in.

So while I was en route to Glasgow, a creepy member I work with who fundraises for Neo-Nazi groups shared a fantasy video of him killing me

And hell face no consequences bc @GOPLeader cheers him on with excuses.

Fun Monday! Well, back to work bc institutions dont protect woc https://t.co/XRnMAKsnNO

This dude is a just a collection of wet toothpicks anyway.

White supremacy is for extremely fragile people &sad men like him, whose self concept relies on the myth that he was born superior because deep down he knows he couldnt open a pickle jar or read a whole book by himself

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) November 9, 2021

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) said Gosar was more comfortable with violence than voting.

Gosars digital director, Jessica Lycos, told The Washington Post in a statement that we made an anime video and everyone needs to relax.

The left doesnt get meme culture. They have no joy. They are not the future. Its a cartoon. Gosar cant fly and he does not own any light sabers. Nor was violence glorified. This is about fighting for truth, she told the Post.

Scores of Twitter users commented that they had reported the video. According to Twitters rules , content that glorifies violence is prohibited.

A Twitter spokesperson said the platform had placed a public interest notice on the Tweet as it violated its hateful conduct policy .

As is standard with this notice, engagements with the Tweet will be limited. People will be able to Quote Tweet the Tweet, but will not be able to Like, Reply or Retweet it, the statement said.

The post also appears on Instagram; a Facebook spokesperson did not immediately return a request for comment.
