Somewhat related (let me know if folks want a separate thread), a lot of lefty venues (TYT, Jezebel) have had prices or videos discussing how Richard Spencer is shinned In Whitefish, "cannot get a table" at restaurants (whether that is some, most, or all is unclear to me), was divorced. A lot of it is stuff kept of us probably already know. They of course get off on it.

Mind you, the hardship Spencer is suffering pales in comparisons to those who do not have multi millionaire parents.

Kessler has a few good articles describing his defence in this utter farce of a trial on VDare that are worth reading. I really didn't like him at first and considered him a bit of a flake but he's turned me around with the way he's fighting back.

I wonder if this whole thing has anything to do with the change Spencer has gone through. Is their a chance he could go to jail for a long time?

What change has Richard gone through? He's exactly the same as he has always been an effete contrarian who is educated but far too narcissistic for his own good.

He was very passionate and active as a "leader" in the Alt Right. Now all he does is occasional live streams and tweets contrarian takes.

Got you. I think everyone kind of took a step back after Charlottesville from the street/IRL stuff because of the way it was exploited. NJP meetings from what I understand has an intense screening system for potential attendees of their meetings and they're not under any legal pressure now. It's just the reality the DR faces right now in America and it's not unique to Spencer.

Nah it's a SLAPP/economic attack civil suit, not a criminal suit.

I wonder exactly how it'll turn out. We should spread the word so everyone can help the cause.
