WHO'S WHO IN THE DISSIDENT RIGHT: GREG JOHNSON
If I may be permitted to indulge in a little cod psychology, Johnson, although a Liberal or Leftist by most metrics, has been transformed into a Jew-hating, Neo-Nazi Hitler apologist by what appears to be a deep erotic fascination with the Third Reich and the Nazi party. This would not normally have been a major problem, but unfortunately Counter-Currents was, along with TRS and The Daily Stormer, among the most influential parts of the Alt-Right in the key period 2013-2016, and played a major role in pushing the movement in the toxic direction in which it went.
In 2013 I attacked Johnson's fetishization of Hitler in an article called "When You're Covered in Shit." Later Johnson and I collaborated to some degree, in particular joining forces to attack Andrew Anglin for what Johnson described as his "Vantardism." But we fell out over Johnson's failure to similarly critique Mike Enoch's attempts to Nazify the movement. Instead, following Enoch's doxxing in early 2017, Johnson "defriended" me to ingratiate himself with the TRS group, most of whom continued to despise him for being a homosexual.
