Matthew Frost (AKA Matt Archer) used to teach religious studies at a private school in west London. He set up Ideas Sleep Furiously, a race science blog, in 2021 and left his job to run it full time, selling it to Emil Kirkegaard and rebranding it as Aporia Magazine.

The website pledged it would “not cower beneath the god of political correctness”. Central to the Aporia is the concept that fixed racial groups exist, and that there is a discernible hierarchy between them based on genetic factors. Frost, in conversations with our undercover reporter, discussed his enthusiasm for the “remigration” of Africans from Europe.

With his Human Diversity Foundation colleague Erik Ahrens, the Alternative für Deutschland activist, Frost has devised a membership club scheme for devotees of race science to pay large sums of money to meet Edward Dutton and Neema Parvini. This project is called Neo Byzantium, and Frost and Ahrens have taken inspiration from the Nazi SS and the cult of Scientology to manage their members.

In 2024, Frost announced he was stepping back from day-to-day editorial duties at Aporia, although he still manages live events and remains the administrator of the group’s Telegram channel.
