More than $150,000 has been raised to cover the felony fees of the internet’s most infamous neo-Nazi blogger, currently being sued by the Southern Poverty Law Center for instigating a “harassment campaign” against a Jewish female. The cash became contributed using supporters of Andrew Anglin, the man behind the Daily Stormer, a site committed to all things white electricity. Donors made their contributions via a right-wing crowdfunding platform referred to as WeSearchr, which is kind of like a seasoned-hate-speech model of GoFundMe or Kickstarter.

According to the SPLC, Anglin encouraged readers to annoy Tanya Gersh, a real estate agent in Whitefish, Montana. In a post on the Daily Stormer web page, Anglin reportedly accused Gersh of extorting cash from Sherry Spencer, who’s the mother of white nationalist Richard Spencer.

“In as a minimum one location in Ohio [our process server] heard voices inner,” Cohen informed Buzzfeed, “however while he knocked, no person got here to the door.” A publish at the Daily Stormer website hyperlinks to the WeSearchr fundraising campaign. The headline at the access roads, “SPLC is Suing Anglin! Donate Now to Stop These Kikes.”

WeSearchr is added to you via Chuck C. Johnson, a right-wing blogger who Jezebel notes have formerly “claimed that both President Obama and Emmanuel Macron are homosexual,” wrongly diagnosed the female he thought to become ‘Jackie’ of the UVA scandal, and has verified what Forbes known as a usual “disregard for records.” Johnson is perhaps best known for purchasing banned Twitter for accumulating funds to “take out” Black Lives Matter activist Deray McKesson.
