WHO'S WHO IN THE DISSIDENT RIGHT: NATHAN SYKES (DAILY STORMER) - YES, HE'S JEWISH TOO

Yes, another Jew who worked for the "Neo-Nazi" Daily Stormer

This guy was never really on my radar because he was just a few sock names on the Daily Stormer; and that means he could very well have been a bot, a low-ranking Kremlin content monkey, or even Andrew Anglin himself when he was warming up in the morning. But, later, I realised he was a real flesh-and-blood human and, indeed, one more interesting example of a couple of things that everybody should now be fully aware of about Dissident Righters: a disproportionate number are weird "Jewish Nazis" and/or physically unattractive incels, bitter at the World.

As is well known, the Stormer was a "virulently anti-Semitic" site that nevertheless seems to have had an odd number of connections with the exact group of people it was supposed to be hating on.

Weev is a perfect example of this, Anglin himself may even be a case of this, and then there is this guy - Nathan Sykes who wrote regularly for the site under the names "Hamish Patton," "Stan Dangerfield," and others.

Born 1968 and looking about as Jewish as the bastard love child of Henry Kissinger and Barbara Streisand, Sykes had an interesting backstory. In the mid-2000s, he was the editor of 100% Home Girls, a porn magazine published by Australian Consolidated Press. He was already displaying Jewish-Nazi tendencies then:

"He would keep Hitler dolls on his desk, and play German marching band music. He even tried to do a Hitler doll giveaway in the magazine, but he was stopped and disciplined by management," a former colleague revealed. "We all thought it was strange that this Jewish bloke was running around with these crazy right-wing ideas."

Soon after this, it looks like he was fired. In October 2013, he went bankrupt, with bank and credit card debts of $39,000 (Australian). Then, in 2015, a Jew at the Daily Stormer, Joshua Goldberg, who is now serving a ten-year sentence on terrorism charges, hooked him up with the Stormer. Goldberg offered to publish Sykes's writing under his own pseudonym, "Michael Slay," before Sykes started writing under his own by-lines.

Shades of irony here

Sykes was also heavily involved with online troll attacks on various figures in Australia. Later, he became associated with the Neo-Nazi "Australia First" party, which -- predictably -- was also led by a Semite (Lebanese Australian James Saleam). You really couldn't make this kind of crap up!

Much of this intriguing backstory was revealed by Luke McMahon for The Age and Sydney Morning newspaper. This led to Sykes upping his trolling and intimidation efforts against the journalist, resulting in a rather drawn-out trial that ended last year, with Sykes getting off lightly by being sentenced to a 19-month "intensive corrections order" and being ordered to perform 150 hours of community service.
