With the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, taking up the news cycle, the New York Times ran a photo of suspected murderer James Fields at some rally filled with other racist shitheels. In that photo, right next to Fields, is another young man with a Nazi-inspired haircut—Nigel Krofta. The Post and Courier has a story on how he’s been getting a lot of grief online since … you know … Nazi murderers.
Krofta's Facebook profile indicates he resides in Ridgeville and is a welder and mechanic at Limehouse & Sons Inc. His page also trumpets racist and neo-Nazi ideologies — all of which are ideals Krofta said Monday he firmly stands behind.
"If you look on facebook and anyone commenting who have known me in person know that I am a good person, but they have also known my beliefs I am very open about them. Even people from park circle and the Mill knew that," he said in a Facebook message to a Post and Courier reporter. "And it wasn't until this weekend did people feel the need to say something to virtue signal. They think they are strong and moral yet only when its convenient for them. They can attack my livelihood all they want, but I am not a materialist so it doesn't matter whether I am poor and homeless or have a steady comfy life. I have been through it all. I am not ashamed of standing for what I believe in, every man has a duty to determine for himself what he believes is right and wrong."
Krofta has got the lingo down! “Virtue signal!” Listen, there are people who do find it convenient to only attack people’s beliefs online—but when you’re a fucking Nazi sympathizer, there isn’t such a thing as “virtue signaling.” It’s calling a Nazi a Nazi. Krofta told the Post and Courier that he didn’t know Fields, and had only had some small talk with him at that rally. Unfortunately for Krofta, his bosses have decided to send him back into Donald Trump’s amazing job-filled economy.
Nigel E. Krofta’s Facebook page—active as of this diary—is what you expect. A quick look at the young man’s posts show a shaggy, long-haired gun-enjoyer, who slowly becomes more clean cut as he gets his Nazi on. It’s got unifying memes on it like:
Get it? They look so different they must be different species because Krofta and his friends don’t understand how genetics and science and evolution works. This is his Facebook opener:
unashamed, unabashed white devil
Nothing to be ashamed of if you’re too stupid to be ashamed. Here is Nigel Krofta explaining what makes a person Jewish and how it isn’t simply a “religion.” It’s classic Nazi antisemitism. Krofta is an inarticulate, young, not-very-bright guy who wants very much to be considered by the world to be a special snowflake. Well, here’s your 15 minutes, Krofta.
