The Feds will have to dig even deeper into their deep state pockets after one of their undercover operations, The Daily Stormer, run by two of their undercover agents (((Andrew Anglin))) and (((Weev))), was hit with a $4.1 million lawsuit judgement last week.
The comedian, Dean Obeidallah, won the award after suing the Stormer for publishing a false article about him in 2017.
Tbh, it just sounds like a bit of moronic satire...

As reported by the New York Times:
A federal judge ruled last week that Andrew Anglin, the website’s publisher, and his company “acted with actual malice when they published false statements, with knowledge of the falsity of those statements or with reckless disregard for the truth,” according to court documents.
The ruling was about a June 2017 article in The Daily Stormer that claimed Mr. Obeidallah was a terrorist who had masterminded the deadly bombing in Manchester, England, after an Ariana Grande concert in May 2017. The judgment last Wednesday came as a default because Mr. Anglin never appeared in court during the case, according to Mr. Obeidallah.
In an interview Sunday, Mr. Obeidallah, who is also a SiriusXM radio host and a political commentator, said the article was apparently in response to a column he had written for The Daily Beast about several killings committed by white men who had made racist statements or identified themselves as white supremacists.
“Trump refuses to call these acts what they are: white supremacist terrorism,” Mr. Obeidallah wrote. The column did not mention Mr. Anglin.
The next day, The Daily Stormer published an article by Mr. Anglin that falsely said Mr. Obeidallah had bragged about perpetrating the bombing in Manchester. The article included images of tweets that had been doctored to look as if Mr. Obeidallah had written them.
“He’s still tweeting in response to trolls, if you want to go confront him,” Mr. Anglin’s article said.
Some readers of that article threatened Mr. Obeidallah via social media and in the comments under Mr. Anglin’s story. “Dean better pray that he dies of natural causes before we get there,” said one comment, according to court documents.
“It was scary,” Mr. Obeidallah said Sunday. “It really was scary, and I was worried for my friends. I was worried for my co-workers.”
Although it could be costly to the Federal government, the lawsuit against Anglin could also be used as a convenient excuse to shut down the now superfluous Stormer website, which has served its purpose with distinction.
The site was first set up as a psy-ops and disruption operation to Nazify and stigmatise the then rising Alt-Right back in 2013.
Thanks to other shills in the movement, as well as useful idiots like Richard Spencer and Greg Johnson, the potent metapolitical identitarian movement became associated with toxic Naziism and basically crashed and burned as a result.
So, from a Deep State perspective, the $4.1 million -- along with any other chickenfeed needed to bankroll Anglin and his low-rent associates -- was money well spent.

I don't follow Greg Johnson's work, but I'm aware that he has contributed greatly to the cause. All you appear to do is attack more successful figures on the right, like a bitching, gossiping yenta with a grudge. Did Johnson decline your advances and leave you blue-balled and jerking off over Richard Spencer videos?
ReplyDeleteI hope nationalists really learn a lesson from being taken for a ride like this. Probably they won't as few are as wise as whoever wrote this article.
