A Prominent Neo-Nazi And White Supremacist Organizer Comes Out As Jewish...and Gay

CHANNEL 4 NEWS – A white supremacist active as recently as the start of this year says today he is publicly renouncing 40 years of hate. Speaking on Channel 4 News he comes out as gay for the first time – and admits to a violent past.

After a lifetime of involvement with the far-right Kevin Wilshaw announces on Channel 4 News that he is leaving the movement – at the same time publicly coming out as gay.

The well known National Front organiser in the 1980s was still active in white supremacist groups earlier this year – including speaking at events.

What if I told you…a prominent neo-Nazi who organized events for the National Front and spoke hate-filled messages at white supremacist events and worked with violent paramilitary splinter groups…

He joined the BNP after being part of the National Front and flirted with dangerous fringe groups like the Racial Volunteer Force.

Mr Wilshaw says he remembers meeting David Copeland – the Brixton and Soho nail bomber. More recently he took to social media – and until the start of year was still speaking at rallies.

….turned out to be Jewish….

Kevin Wilshaw also opens up about his Jewish mother.

“She was part Jewish, maiden name was Benjamin, we have Jewish blood on that side.

On an application form to join the National Front, he wrote about his hatred of “the Jews”.

AND GAY!

“On one or two occasions in the recent past I’ve actually been the recipient of the very hatred of the people I want to belong to … if you’re gay it is acceptable in society but with these group of people it’s not acceptable, and I found on one or two occasions when I was suspected of being gay I was subjected to abuse.”

“You have other members leading National Front who are overtly gay. And nobody could see the contradiction of it that you have an overtly gay person leading a homophobic organisation, makes no sense.”

Wow.  You hate to see it.  You struggle to truly process the pain that a bunch of Nazis are feeling waking up this morning in their mother’s guest room, stretching their “White Power” tattooed arms out underneath their big red swastika flag, wiping the crust from their eyes as they grab their cell phone next to their big black boots and spare eagle pins, swiping to open…and seeing one of their fearless leaders is a gay Jew.

This man…this strong, brave man, who led you in so many “Death to Jews!” chants, who was always the first to pick up the megaphone and shout “Blood and Soil,” who never let a fellow comrade smash a chair over a gay person’s head without getting your back?   Yup.  Gay Jew.

Mr Wilshaw admits that being a Nazi who is gay – but with a Jewish background – is a contradiction.

Ya think????

We’ve seen it before, recently, this growing authenticity problem in the Nazi movement.  The internet’s top Nazi blogger had to pack up his keyboard and quit after it leaked that he was married to a Jewish woman.   A hardcore Nazi leader turned out to be some New York fancyboy married to a Jew. The guy everyone envisioned to be a black boot wearing, shaved head, swastika-tatted white supremacist ended up being some hipster in skinny jeans and Warby Parkers bouncing around Soho on Sundays getting bagels and lox with his wife.

Kind of makes you wonder.  All these prominent hate group leaders turning out to be the very things they “hate.”  Maybe it’s time to put that straightened arm back down to your side and find something else to do with your time?
