- (1888PressRelease) August 19, 2020 - SANDPOINT, ID - Stand Against White Supremacy announces a new campaign in Sandpoint, ID in opposition to a planned 5,000 man cult compound. Former West Hollywood piano comic, turned white supremacist cult leader, Owen Benjamin Smith is raising funds from his followers to purchase over 200 acres in Northern Idaho.
Known for promoting fringe conspiracy theories about flat earth, holocaust denial, COVID-19 misinformation, and vaccines, Smith is now also known as a racist, anti-semitic live streamer on the gaming site Dlive.tv where his "comedy" includes singing piano songs such as "That N-Word stole my bike!" and ranting about 'the jews' being involved in a global cabal to rule the world. His behavior has gotten him kicked off of YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Patreon, Twitter, and every town he's ever lived in.
After having been run out of his former town of Saranac Lake, NY, Smith settled recently in Gig Harbor, WA. Due to recent incidents involving altercations in public, Smith is once again looking to leave town in a hurry. Working with licensed real estate agent Brandon Verret of Verret's Tactical in Bonner's Ferry, ID, Smith currently has his eyes set on a large property in Northern Idaho. With plans to ship in 5,000 supporters/ cult members that refer to themselves as "bears", each donating $400 and paying rent to live in trailers on the property while Smith builds a castle, his stated goals include; setting up a youth soccer league to raise funds, starting a homeschooling network, and building enough political influence to impact local elections.
Original plans were for Smith to live with his family at the cult compound. However, he has now used cult funds to purchase a smaller property for himself as he continues to look for land to build the compound. Smith is quoted as saying, "I can't have these people around my family!"
With slogans such as "NO 'O' IN IDAHO!" and "Owen isn't Idahoan", locals have taken to social media platforms to protest this most unwelcome invasion.
