The Daily Stormer has announced that it plans to lay off the majority of its staff after readers of the neo-Nazi website failed to send it enough money.

Andrew Anglin, the site’s founder, bemoaned in a post on Monday that numerous writers would have to be let go after less than $5,000 was raised by the Daily Stormer’s readership.

“I’ve given 30-day noticed to most of the staff, because even after I told you people that the site lost $50,000 last year, fewer than 60 of you decided to send money, for a total of less than $5,000,” Anglin wrote. “The costs for January were more than $10,000.”


Anglin, who was ordered by a judge last year to pay more than $700,000 to a black woman whom he and his supporters had harassed, described the minimal support as “absurd.”


“A site this size should be able to function comfortably with a modest staff,” he added. “But hey, if people don’t want to send money, we’ll do things differently.”


Anglin further stated that he would be the only full-time writer moving forward and warned that the future of the site’s “race war” section was “up in the air.”

“It is impossible to communicate how depressing this is for me personally,” he continued. “I thought that we were promoting an agenda here that people believed in, but it seems that virtually all of you do not believe in this enough to send $5.”

Characterizing the site as the only large platform devoted to “telling the truth about the Jews,” Anglin ended his tirade by accusing “the overwhelming majority of the readership” of not caring about the Daily Stormer’s white supremacist agenda.
 
Imagine trying to crowdfund your way to fuhrerdom and then whining that people won't pay for your larp. It's not like they get results anyway. A satanic homosexual vampire nazi cult has more kills to their name in 3 years than stormfront does in how many decades now? Aint nobody paying you 50 grand a year so you can post old pictures of dudes in ss uniforms and jerk off to them.
 
I get the impression this (IF true) is more of an offering than an online racism is dead problem. Doubtlessly there has been some move from the Neo-Nazi crowd to the optics nationalist crowd like the move from skinheads to 2.0, but you see other Nazi sites like The Right Stuff apparently continuously expanding. You also see guys like Nick Fuentes or that other Identy Evropa guy doing at least somewhat well. Similarly, I keep seeing that National-Justice site linked around. I think the Stormer is probably just not keeping up with competitors' superior products.

These idiots don't have a forum, do they? Hope if it's shut down, they don't come here.
TRS apparently has a forum again for their paid subscribers, so we're probably safe.

I figure the lack of donations might be partially due to how you really don't want donations to Daily Stormer showing up in your credit card transactions, and they probably can't take Paypal and have to use dodgy payment processors with nasty fees.

Still, it's not surprising that unironic racists are too dumb to use cryptocurrencies, hahahahahaha.
It's gonna be tough to convince people to buy crypto just to donate it to content you can get anywhere else for free but probably better. I think for a while supporting them was probably considered super edgy, but they aren't the only or edgiest game in town anymore.
 
Looks like white power isn't the big dog we thought it was.

Maybe the neonazis were the marginalized group all along...
 
I wasn't even aware they employed anyone, I figured the staff was all volunteers and that shitfest made no actual money.

Not sure and not gonna google it at work, but basically 90% of stormfront users today would have been considered crispy bacon material back in 1943.

Said some asshole on Something Awful, way back in the day.
 
What do you expect Andrew? You've been crying like a broken-hearted teenage girl over Trump doing popular shit that helps normal people, do you think any normal, reasonably successful person wants to associate with that?

Andrews Anglin and Aurenheimer ruined their lives and those of everyone that attended Charlottesville. Why would anyone listen to these losers?

Here's what I don't get. Cantwell and TRS are transparently fed-ops being run to peel disaffected young white men away from Trump and towards an ideological ghetto. All their takes are perfectly designed for this. Andrew recognizes that Enoch and company are fed-run, yet he still shares 99% of their pants-shittingly stupid beliefs and takes.

Is Andrew on heroin? Is he going through menopause? Is he transitioning? Is he too stupid to understand that Trump views many of his allies as unreliable and temporary at best, so he gives them symbolic victories while giving his base real, tangible benefits?

For example, In 2016 Trump made some noise about troon rights and was photographed holding a LGBTQ+ flag, yet he threw the troons under the bus the first chance he got. Trump can't do much legislatively, but he and Steven Miller have rejiggered the immigration system such that immigration is at it's lowest levels in decades.

Maybe Andrew believes what the media says about Trump... the same media which lies about fucking everything. How fucking dumb is that lol?

Whatever the source of Andrew's delusions that Trump is a moron, a cuck, being fed misinfo, ..., etc, he desperately needs to pull his head out of his ass, stop writing, and think for a while. He needs to fix his own life before he can tell other people how to fix theirs.

The media figured out how to nullify the Daily Stormer. He should scale it back while still maintaining an online presence, and find some other way to troll at scale.

@Rice Is Ready made a good point: where is the funny? Bitching and blackpilling is not funny. You won't persuade anyone by being a whiny bitch.

Maybe Weev was recruited by US intel while he was in federal prison and has worked as a go-between between Ukranian neonazis and US government handlers, and now that the Ukraine situation is cooling out, Weev doesn't need Nazi cred any more so the Daily Stormer ist kaput?
 
Well with half the members being Feds I imagine it would cause problems if it turned out they were funding neo-nazis so they probably can't.

And for the other half, well the Nazis typically draw from disaffected angry men who feel they've been excluded so they probably don't have much money. The original Nazis got some funding by rich capitalists who thought they were a good bulwark against communism. Don't think many are making that mistake again.
 
Anglin, who was ordered by a judge last year to pay more than $700,000 to a black woman whom he and his supporters had harassed

In 2017, after Taylor Dumpson became the first Black woman president of American University, bananas with racist messages on nooses began to appear on campus. The incident caught the attention of many, eventually Anglin. Anglin then used the neo-Nazi website to urge his followers to harass Dumpson with more racist, sexist, and threatening messages online.

A pretty shit thing to do but imaging having to give someone 3-quarters of a million dollars because your fans insulted someone in an, in all likelyhood, affermative action position.
 
Why pay money for schizo posting /pol/ gives for free?
