Keeping Us Safe from White Supremacist Terrorist Russian Election Interferers, by Eric Striker

The Southern Poverty Law Center recently published an article legalistically implying that National Justice is a covert troll farm run out of Moscow, with an accompanying photoshopped image of yours truly screaming in front of the Kremlin.


Their evidence? National Justice hired a Russian web developer who provides affordable rates to give us his cheapest and fastest option, which was to clone the design of another publication, Russia Insider.


The author, Michael Edison Hayden, has referred to my journalism as disinformation, with implications that Vlad Putin is controlling me behind the scenes because I have a Russian tech guy. He provided no examples of any of my reporting being inaccurate, only that he doesn’t like what I’m reporting.


Charles Bausman, the editor of a site that began covering culture and politics in Russia and became a hit, was targeted with the brunt of the slanderous attack. According to the article, Bausman — whose family roots in Lancaster go back to the American Revolution — is a secret agent who Putin parachuted into the middle of Amish country to help me make Black Lives Matter and Antifa rioters look bad.


Not a shred of evidence is provided here either. Bausman once lived in Russia and was a guest on Russia Today five years ago. According to this logic, if this makes Bausman or anyone else suspect, then full time RT employees actually drawing checks from the Russian state like Larry King must be extra nefarious.


The next day, the SPLC published another article saying that Lancaster is a swing district being targeted by a pro-Trump Russian psy-op. They fail to mention that Trump defeated Clinton there by almost 20 points.


Hayden, an anarcho-communist and self-described Antifa member, first appeared on the scene in 2017 when the owners of Newsweek started hiring undignified and unethical people willing to churn out fake news at their clickfarm for pocket money. It later came out that Newsweek during this period was just front for a Moony cult’s money laundering operation.


At some point in 2018, two troubled women run out of the nationalist movement for their bad behavior approached Hayden to use him for revenge. After about a year of us making fun of him on Gab for being a failed softcore porn writer, Hayden was eager to oblige. With a little lunchbox full of half-truths in tow, he was able to gain employment in yet another racket, the F-rated “charity” known as the SPLC.


Since going to work for the SPLC as a “Senior Investigative Reporter.” he has dedicated his tenure to childish trolling like planting rumors that my mother is a Puerto Rican, that I am a meth head, that Trey Garrison used to be a gay porn director, and that Mike Peinovich, a pro-white radio personality, is a nefarious domestic terrorist who attends Purim dinners with Ashley Rae Goldenberg’s Jewish fraternity. Most of this is intended to provoke a reaction, which makes him upset when he doesn’t get it, but just when we thought he couldn’t get any lower he’s now accusing us all of being stooges for Mother Russia.


I am reluctant to psychoanalyze people, but projection comes to mind when you read about his insecurities over being mixed race, his habit of getting wasted at work, his history of making explicit threats to send Antifa after people, or the fact that he used to direct his wife Aadya Bedi in BDSM performances for fellow deviants.


While it’s easy to laugh at tragic clowns like Michael Edison Hayden, the post-truth sea he’s doggy paddling in has flooded every aspect of American life. Articles about white supremacist boogeymen working for Putin are standard SPLC fare to scam Mueller watching party attending MSNBC catladies out of money, but the moral panic they’re fundraising off is very real and very dangerous.


Last month the Department of Homeland Security released a bulletin affirming that calling 78-year-old Joe Biden old makes you part of a “Russian influence” operation. Expressing dismay at the anarchist violence engulfing our country unimpeded is also seen as suspect. Just like that, institutional actors and petty tyrants are able to cast the shadow of criminal treason, which is punished by death under US law, over anyone stating the obvious.


At this point the Russia hoax has been proven beyond reasonable doubt to have been a failed disinformation campaign invented by permanent bureaucrats at the CIA and FBI to try and delegitimize Trump’s surprise victory. The fact that most people in America now know this hasn’t stopped the evil nerds and megalomaniacs at the DHS and FBI from using their limitless well of taxpayer funded resources to launch a dirty war against the American people under the guise of “Russian meddling” and “white supremacy.”


A DHS threat assessment report released on October 6th blames heightened social and racial tensions, lack of faith in America’s plutocrats, and other sentiments universally expressed in failed states not on the consistent pattern of incoherence and conflict in multicultural societies or the media and state openly gaslighting and oppressing us, but on Russians hiding in our Fruit Loops.


This “expert” opinion, while largely ignored or mocked by the man on the street, has now been made into policy through a campaign to get social media platforms to hand over their content moderation to the Anti-Defamation League and censor anyone critical of our highly neurotic and spiteful oligarchs.


While some Trumpworld conservatives are ready and willing to dismiss Russia bullshit as a lie, they are quick to play their role in the dialectic when faced with the white supremacy hoax.


The goal of flooding our airwaves with concern trolling about an imminent white supremacist threat is a dirty political trick intended first to conflate the legitimate and peaceful expression of nationalist beliefs with acts of terrorism, and secondarily to discourage Trump from deploying his tried and true campaign strategy of dog whistling to the disenfranchised and discriminated white majority to win.


The “lethal” white supremacy threat, according to the the aforementioned DHS report, claims 39 people died in eight incidents at the hands of white men with racist views since 2018. None of these men belonged to a nationalist or ethnic advocacy organization — not even the Ku Klux Klan.


During the same time period, “white supremacists” have been less lethal than lightning (54 deaths), plastic bags (40), and peanuts (100). Leftist anti-white race agitators the DHS does not mention and refuses to condemn killed 19 people in just 14 days of their rioting, likely surpassing the right-wing “extremist” death toll by now. The FBI’s own 2019 homicide data shows that last year blacks (13.4% of the population) committed more murders (6,425) than all non-blacks put together.


The FBI, traditionally obsessed with its prestige, is undergoing a historic public confidence crisis that its pathetic behavior is only exacerbating. A recent Rasmussen poll found that 46% of people want to see a government crackdown on the FBI versus just 23% who don’t. The numbers would be even more lopsided if 90% of the media wasn’t dedicated damage control for their obscene and systematic corruption.


America has become a dark and paranoid place where your rights and freedom are now completely predicated on the political interests of federal prosecutors, agents, judges and big capitalists. Speaking with friends of mine from across the political spectrum, some who are well-known and popular artists, entertainers, commentators and intellectuals, they all express the same view: if you say something outside of the suffocatingly narrow window of allowed opinions, powerful people will accuse you of being a foreign meddler or white supremacist and destroy you.


Future historians will one day look back on this moment with shame and confusion; a lead-in-the-pipes event of chaotic yet totalitarian madness.
