== Views == Cantwell is considered a major figure within the Alt-Right, and has described himself as both a [[fascist]] and a libertarian.<ref>[http://www.news12.com/story/36153205/fascist-leader-in-vice-news-piece-is-from-suffolk-county Fascist leader in Vice News piece is from Suffolk County], ''News 12''</ref> Both the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League consider Cantwell to be a white nationalist.<ref name=SPLC>[https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate/extremist-files/individual/christopher-cantwell Christopher Cantwell], Southern Poverty Law Center</ref><ref>[https://www.adl.org/education/resources/backgrounders/from-alt-right-to-alt-lite-naming-the-hate From Alt-Right to Alt-Lite: Naming the Hate], Anti-Defamation League</ref> Cantwell is also known for his militantly anti-police views, admitting that he believes it would be morally justified for a driver being pulled over by a police officer to gun down the officer and supporting [[Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley]], who murdered two police officers in New York City in 2014.<ref name=SPLC/> Though Cantwell was initially a supporter of [[Donald Trump]], he later rescinded his support for Trump, claiming that Trump "wasn't racist enough" and not liking the fact that his daughter, Ivanka, was married to Jared Kushner, a Jew.<ref>[http://www.businessinsider.com/why-people-are-furious-with-trump-charlottesville-white-supremacist-vice-video-2017-8 The chilling worldview of a white supremacist who helped lead the Charlottesville rally shows why so many people are furious with Trump], ''Business Insider''</ref> Cantwell writes essays on his personal blog about topics including white supremacy, alt-right politics, libertarianism, and the men's rights movement. He has written for and republished essays about the men's rights movement to ''[[Paul Elam|A Voice for Men]]'', a men's rights and antifeminist website.<ref>[http://www.salon.com/2017/08/18/weeping-nazi-started-off-as-a-mens-rights-activist-which-is-no-huge-surprise/ Weeping Nazi started off as a 'men's rights activist', which is no huge surprise], ''Salon''</ref> In 2013 and 2014, he wrote and republished his anti-police essays as a volunteer for Cop Block, a police accountability organization.<ref name=SPLC/> Cantwell co-hosted the anarcho-capitalist radio show ''Free Talk Live'' but was suspended in 2015 after tweeting a racial slur against an African American person who criticized him. He later was removed from the position permanently.<ref name=SPLC/> Meanwhile, in December 2013, Cantwell began what he called ''Some Garbage Podcast'', disseminated through YouTube and elsewhere, and in April 2015 renamed it ''Radical Agenda'', subtitled "a show about common sense extremism".<ref name=SPLC/>
