Tales From The Movement: Neo-Nazi Who Inspired American History X Is Now a Jew Thanks To DNA Discovery

Beware of people who present themselves as overly extreme.

New York Post:

“In 1998’s “American History X,” Norton’s Derek Vinyard character was based, in part, on Meeink’s road to redemption as he began to ditch his racist views after kindling friendships with black inmates in prison. 

But now Meeink has revealed to The Post an astonishing twist: he is Jewish. 

Long after quitting neo-Nazism and attempting to make amends for his past, he took a 23andMe test and discovered that he has Jewish ancestry — and has now embraced his heritage.

He was prompted to take the test by a chance remark from a friend that he “looked Jewish.”

“I just wanted to see if it was true, I wanted to see if it was real,” Meeink said. …”

In many cases, the most extreme guy in the room turns out to be a federal agent or an antisocial edgelord who is attracted to extreme politics, not because of the ideological substance, but to strike a rebellious pose due to personality issues or someone who is suffering from a mental health crisis or in this case a Jew with various issues. There are many other examples of this like Frank Collin or Weev.
