Christopher Cantwell

Christopher Charles Cantwell, also known as The Crying Nazi, (born November 12, 1980) is an American white supremacist and white nationalist, shock jock, political commentator and activist. Part of the broader alt-right movement, Cantwell attained notoriety during and immediately after his participation in the Unite the Right rally. He grew up in Stony Brook, New York, and in 2012 moved to Keene, New Hampshire. Cantwell attended Ward Melville High School in East Setauket, New York, and acquired a lengthy criminal record in New York that includes DWI, weapons and stolen property convictions. 2Broadcasting and writing Cantwell began as a men's rights activist and has contributed to the A Voice for Men website. In 2014 he wrote for CopBlock.org, a police-critical organization. In the same year he was presented as one of three "Difference Makers" (for "fighting for their constitutional right to be total shitstains") on the Colbert Report which documented the "Free Keene Squad" harassing meter maids. He also co-hosted the anarcho-capitalist radio show Free Talk Live but was suspended in May 2015, in his words, "for calling a social justice warrior a nigger on Twitter" and, after a reinstatement, again in September 2015, also on accusations of racism. Meanwhile, in December 2013, Cantwell started what he called Some Garbage Podcast, disseminated through YouTube and elsewhere, and in April 2015 renamed it Radical Agenda ("a show about common sense extremism").. In 2017, he deleted most of the episodes from YouTube after receiving warnings about community standards violation
