Regrettably, circumstances have forced me to write another article on
the subject of digital Third Positionism, or as I call it, “Turd
Positionism.” On May 16, I wrote an essay for/Washington Babylon/on a
toxic online movement which I consider to be far right. My piece —/Who’s
Side Are You On? The Answer Is Clear For Today’s Useful Idiots For The
Right/
<https://washingtonbabylon.com/which-side-are-you-on-the-answer-is-clear-for-todays-useful-idiots-for-the-right/>/—/was
criticized in some quarters for implying that there was a tangential
connection between the popular political podcast/Chapo Trap House/and
the right entryists I profiled in the story.
I hope to make this connection clearer in today’s piece, but I warn you:
it’s not for the faint of heart. Second caveat. This is the first of a
three-part series so you’ll have to check back here later today and
Tuesday to get the full story. What follows is a terrifying tale of
podcasts, cults, Heathrow Airport, and youth-oriented model plane hobby
groups. The series covers, among others in addition to/Chapo/, Glenn
Greenwald,/American Affairs/, Michael Tracey, Angela Nagle, Anna
Khachiyan, Alex Hochuli, Julius Krein, the freak circus known as/Living
Marxism/(now the freak circus known as/Spiked/) and obvious
crypto-rightist Catherine Liu.
