Greetings, Dear Reader,
No slap and tickle this morning. Right for the guts.
DERANGED RICH KIDS
Fergie Chambers, who I’m sure you would never recognize, was heir to the Cox Media fortune and allegedly used his means to “materially fund” Islamic terrorism, at least if the Trump admin indictment is to be believed.
He was arrested in Spain June 10 on an extradition request. His charges include international money laundering to materially support a terrorist organization, rounded out with some additional charges related to conspiracy to riot.
Despite publicly breaking with his family and walking away with an allowance of $250 million, they have decided to throw their weight behind defending him.
If only they cared this much about raising a properly adjusted, productive young man.
Cox Media, in case you don’t know, is a behemoth of generational wealth with staggering influence. The family is valued in the tens of billions. They own probably half of all your cable internet and various media companies, including the Atlanta Journal Constitution and Axios, which is arguably the most influential big J journalism company in Washington, DC.
(Cox’s great-grandfather James was a one-time Democratic nominee for president in 1920 and a media mogul. Ironically, one of his major platforms was “Americanization of immigrants” so they’d integrate better in America!)
The mother of Chambers’ fourth child is Stella Schnabel, also a gross and subversive nepo baby. She rode the exploits and largesse of her father, a famous painter in the New York’s 1950’s creative scene, to such accomplishments as once dating a member of the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, gracing an album cover, and various bit roles in Hollywood.
Like Schnabel, Chambers was first educated at the progressive Saint Ann’s School in Brooklyn, which now costs over $50,000+ a year. Its most famous contribution to humanity, if giga-wealthy white activists are excluded from notable alums, is that disgusting slob Lena Dunham.
Chambers went to Bard College, where his father was once chairman of the board, where he eventually dropped out. In profiles, he notes that his radicalization began when he was 12 and a “teacher” introduced him to Howard Zinn, who’s an IQ-challenged version of Noam Chomsky.
Chambers was further radicalized following the shooting of Michael “Hands Up Don’t Shoot” Brown, which like Zinn, is basically a mythological story at this point with zero basis in reality.
His deep-pocketed activism has gone on to support air quotes “protest” (See: “Direct Action”. See Also: Riots. See Further: Terrorism) at Standing Rock, Ferguson and “Cop City.” He’s also given to euphemistic “Palestinian causes.”
If all of this sounds familiar, that’s because it is or you likely read my article on “Socialism Chic.”
Rich kid grows up in generational wealth, is poorly and expensively “educated,” rebels, does deranged things with impunity, funds the destruction of the West.
It fits the bill for so many recent examples. Zohran Mamdani comes from wealth. His campaign comms strategist, Morris Katz, went on to give us Graham Platner. Platner went to a private now-$70,000/yr school where one former classmate said he walked around wearing a red arm band and fantasizing about overthrowing school policy (no shit).
Katz himself comes from wild stock. Great-grandfather built a hosiery fortune; grandfather Harry Jay Katz was labeled a “playboy prince of darkness,” claimed he bedded over 4,000 women, and published a magazine whose poetry editor later became the “Unicorn Killer.” Dad David Bar Katz allegedly discovered Philip Seymour Hoffman’s corpse and sued the National Enquirer over gay-lover rumors; he’s also tight with leftist actor John Leguizamo, who’s broke the Hollywood speed record for becoming a retarded mess. Mom Julie Merberg churns out toddler agitprop like My First Book of Feminism. Katz himself wrote a puberty guide for boys — and reportedly wanted to illustrate it with actual imagery of his own penis until his publisher said no.
Daniel Moraff, who teamed up with Katz to recruit Platner, is heir to the Toys R Us fortune. He went to Brown and Yale. Early on he was “banished” from a Democratic campaign for “having no boundaries with women,” according to a female organizer, which means he was (allegedly) a serial sex pest.
My goal with all this isn’t to advocate for the forced sterilization of lefty elites, though such thoughts do amuse me.
I’m going to sound like a broken record here, but I can’t hammer it enough.
The difference between the families of John Quincy Adams and Fergie Chambers is pretty obviously educational pipelines. John Quincy was studying classics and economics and political philosophy and Fergie was reading Howard Zinn and ripping bongs and possibly getting touched in inappropriate ways by his teachers.
If we really want to make Katz, Platner, Mamdani, Chambers and their less-wealthy-but-still-affluent supporters go extinct, we must stage an ultra aggressive coup on the education system. Not just one college in Florida for headlines and lulz. The whole enchilada must be obliterated and rebuilt like Peter Weller in the 1987 masterpiece “Robocop.”
Until then, we’ll continue to battle endless hordes of idiotic, poorly educated, marxist rich kids determined to put staggering unearned wealth toward subverting the west.
