(JTA)<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The founder of the popular right-wing blog post The Right Stuff resigned over the revelation that his wife is Jewish.<\/p>\n

Mike Enoch, who also co-hosts \u201cThe Daily Shoah\u201d weekly podcast, was outed over the weekend as Mike Peinovich, a website developer from New York. On the podcast, which has about 100,000 regular listeners, Peinovich as Enoch talked about killing Jews and spouted neo-Nazi invective.<\/p>\n

The release of Peinovich\u2019s personal details came after the identities of the other podcast panelists were made public earlier in the week by a rival website called 8chan. The invented surname reportedly is a reference to Enoch Powell, a far-right British politician and Nazi sympathizer.<\/p>\n

Enoch was considered one of the three most influential figures in the \u201calt-right\u201d movement along with Daily Stormer creator Andrew Anglin and Richard Spencer, president of the National Policy Institute, a white supremacist think tank. Spencer is a co-creator of the alt-right label, which describes a far-right movement whose followers traffic variously in white nationalism, anti-immigration sentiment, anti-Semitism and a disdain for \u201cpolitical correctness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peinovich came clean with readers of The Right Stuff, posting a message in a password-protected forum that was reprinted in part by Salon.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I am sure you all know, I was doxxed and an ill advised attempt to fool the media about my identity led me to not talk to you people and to try to simply ride it out by being silent,\u201d he said. \u201cThis was irresponsible and a disservice to all of you. Yes my wife is who they say she is, I won\u2019t even bother denying it, I won\u2019t bother making excuses. If this makes you want to leave the movement, or to have nothing to do with TRS, then I understand.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t lie for me. Don\u2019t try to defend me to those attacking me. Don\u2019t jeopardize your own reputation by defending things that you don\u2019t think you can. I could try to explain my whole life for the last ten years to you but what difference at this point would it make. Life isn\u2019t perfect.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
