____________
The chief editor and main writer of the notorious "Nazi troll" site The Daily Stormer. Anglin had a past as an SJW and "race-mixer" before repackaging himself as an uber-Neo-Nazi Jew hater in 2013, when he founded the Total Fascism site, the precursor to The Daily Stormer.
He is one of the most suspicious characters on the internet, and played a key role in normalising Big Tech's deplatforming of people with his international "hate" campaign against British Jewish MP Luciana Berger in 2014. Whatever the true story behind the man, he is clearly not what he presents himself as.
His closest associate Weev (Andrew Auernheimer) is a confirmed Jew, and there are suspicions that Anglin may well be one himself (and, indeed, he bears a striking resemblance to Jonathan Greenblatt the head of the ADL). If so, this would hardly be unique or even unusual, as many so-called Neo-Nazis have in fact been Jewish.

Known to be very short and with an appearance that reminds some of an albino, he is nevertheless a talented and industrious writer, although it is also possible that he is merely the "branding" for a team of writers. Along with TRS and others in the Alt-Right, he played a key role in turning the Alt-Right from a potent and polymorphous dissident movement to the Neo-Nazi caricature it has become today.
Following repeated attempts to de-platform The Daily Stormer in 2017, the site moved to a domain name controlled by Russia (DailyStormer.su), where it remained safely for nearly 5 years. This suggests that Anglin is most likely a Russian asset.

Kremlin troll humour.
It is also noticeable that Daily Stormer activity and internet prominence greatly increased in 2014, following the Ukrainian revolution. This was a watershed moment for the Kremlin, when Russian-backed Black ops on the internet intensified. Sadly, very few in the Alt-Right realised the danger posed by Anglin and Russia's Nazification of the Alt-Right, although I am glad to say I was one of them, making major attacks on the Stormer, which provoked a major response by Anglin.
For the last couple of years his Daily Stormer pieces have featured prominently at the Unz Review, which claims to be a "free speech for dissidents" site but is obviously a Kremlin shill site. Anglin's chief associate Weev was also widely reported to be based in Kremlin-controlled Transdniestria, a breakaway sliver of Moldavan territory.

In February 2022, the Daily Stormer site was moved to a different domain name (DailyStormer.name) apparently in an attempt to better cloak its connection to Russia. The timing of this suggests that it was coordinated with other measures Russia was taking in the build-up to the attack on Ukraine. Since the invasion began, Anglin has boasted that his strongly pro-Kremlin takes are being recycled in the mainstream media by the likes of Tucker Carlson and Tulsi Gabbard.

Dear Mr Liddle, I have just found your site a few hour ago. I would like to thank you for your papers about WW2. You helped me to understand much this epoch. That said, I have to admit, even if I dislike conspiracy theories that I stand for some of them : pizzagate and Biden's fraud esentially. I would like to know why you think it's an hoax. The mails of Podesta and the instagram pics of the pizzeria seems clear. I would like to know your opinion about the covid hysteria too (very vew papers on your site about this dementia + zero attacks on the pathetic Greg Johnson about that point). Finally, you talk very often about "russian psyop", but what about "US psyop", in Ukraine, particulary. I know than Galicia is not at all russian, but for Donbass or Odessa, it's not as simple. To make short : I'm 100% OK with anschluss of Austria, 0% OK with agression against Czechia and Poland (to let you know I'm not a "Putin-is-always-right guy) (other exemple, historically, Kosovo legitimately belongs to Albania, an opinion shared by less or more 0% of the russian side. Excuse me for my bad english (I'm French).
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comments, Philippe.
DeleteWhen new conspiracy theories bubble up, as they often do, you have two options: (1) go down the rabbit hole and get lost in the trivia and detail, or (2) keep your distance, save your time and energy, and infer from macro indicators if there is anything in them.
There is of course a third option, which is just to swallow them wholesale because they align with your pre-existing emotions and biases, but that is just for fools.
As you probably realise, my preferred response is the 2nd one (saves one wasting years of one's life on something that turns out to be me fake and not particularly important). By now, Pizzagate has all the hallmarks of a fake conspiracy, pushed by Russian black ops for the specific purpose of discrediting Hillary. The timing and the obvious goal are real giveaways. Also, look at how Pizzagate has "cooled". If there was more to it, that would not be happening. Even diehard Pizzagate pushers like Alex Jones have simply dropped it. There was never anything there, and luckily I wasted almost no time on this meaningless distraction. This is not the same as saying there aren't scumbags in the elite or elsewhere is society.
thank you for your answer.
DeleteIf I should read 1 article which synthetise your views (tactic, strategic or ideologic), with which one should I start ?
PS : is James Lawrence still working for AR ? I like most of his writings.
PPS : is there other sites with more or less your POV ?
Unfortunately my views have been diffused through a thousand articles. Just read them all. Sorry, that's the best I can do at the moment without making a major effort at compilation. As with the verses of the Koran, the more recent articles outrank the earlier ones.
DeleteJames Lawrence is still working for AR and his next article is imminently expected within the next 6 to 18 months.
Very few sites I would recommend, as the Dissident Right is deeply r*tarded at present. I would consider Luke Ford's YouTube channel high quality DR content, and Brett Stevens Amerika.org blog. Some others produce good content although I have my reservations about them, people like Dutton, Last, Faulk, Sailer, and a few others.
Apart from that, they are either saying something obvious and narrow, repeatedly (e.g. Jared Taylor), picking low-hanging fruit, or they are simply toxic shills grifters and r*tards.
