A self-proclaimed fascist who proudly declared his admiration for Nazi ideologies during a viral debate with MSNBC's Mehdi Hasan is now playing the victim, launching a crowdfunding campaign after allegedly losing his job for his views.
During the Jubilee debate aired this week, in which Hasan spoke to 20 far-right voters, the man identified as "Connor" brazenly admitted to being a fascist. When pressed by Hasan about Nazi persecution, he downplayed the atrocities, claiming there was "a little bit of persecution" while insisting he doesn't support assaulting human dignity.
“I, frankly, don’t care being called a Nazi at all,” he said.
“Hey, what can I say? Yeah, I am."
Connor has since created a GiveSendGo fundraiser, a crowdfunding platform known for hosting extremist causes, claiming he had been fired for expressing "legal traditional right-wing political views," according to the Daily Beast.
“I’m raising money as an emergency fund and for other expenses while I look for a new job,” the page states. “Unfortunately, voicing fully legal traditional right-wing political views results in real consequences. This is cancel culture and political discrimination on full display.”
He doesn't mention where he worked.
The fundraiser has already surpassed its $15,000 goal, with donors making explicitly white nationalist statements.
One donor contributed $88 — a coded neo-Nazi symbol meaning "Heil Hitler" — writing, "We need a white nation! It's our only future! Vive le Fascisme."
In a podcast appearance, Connor portrayed himself as a victim of "cancel culture," suggesting he was punished for expressing "heterosexual, Christian moral beliefs" that challenge modern secularism.
