Paul Ray Ramsey (also known as ramzpaul and RamZPaul) is an American conservative[3] vlogger, YouTube personality and public speaker[4][5][6][7] who advocates for remaking the United States as a white ethnostate.[8]

The New York Times has described Ramsey as a "popular alt-right internet personality"[9] and Media Matters for America and The Forward called him a "White Nationalist".[10][11] According to the Swiss Basellandschaftliche Zeitung Paul Ramsey belongs to the 9 most important representatives of the alt-right.[12] He has been a speaker at the American Renaissance Conference.

According to economic journalist Philipp Löpfe, Ramsey uses comedy to convey a far-right message.[13] He caused controversy with a tweet involving Kelly Marie Tran, who played Resistance mechanic Rose Tico in the 2017 movie Star Wars: The Last Jedi.[14][15]

Associations

In 2016 Ramsey was a featured speaker at a November 2016 National Policy Institute conference, an organization founded by alt-right spokesman Richard B. Spencer.[16] However, following the National Policy Institute's 2016 conference, Ramsey, "a blogger who flirts with white nationalism," disassociated himself from Spencer because of Spencer's Nazi associations, saying, "You don't want to tie your brand to something that's ultimate evil."[17][16]

In December 2017, Ramsey announced that he was partnering with Ron Unz and his video content would now be available on The Unz Review.[18]
