Christians for Truth
Out of necessity and survival instincts, I dig into everybody and everything I can. The biggest problem I can say (so far) about these guys is that they don't use any references and hence make unvalidatable claims. They seem to correlate well though, as I find other sources in the end for some. Their claim about Daily Stormer people may not be vetted statements so take it with a grain of salt.
That said, if you're in tune with Logos there is something off about Daily Stormer.
Yeah, I don't read them really but I've flipped through their site and it seems like pretty decent articles and opinions. Nothing seems obviously off.

I haven't seen too much to arouse suspicion, but you've got a good instinct. I haven't been reading them daily for too long either.
What I pick up is a sense of "detour" of what matters. Poking fun at things in a way that are far more important to remain serious about. Making the guy who says "I'm going to steal your girlfriend" sound like a bitch in an article is one thing, but when there is a blatant genocidal war on against the population it's not a joke-worthy subject. The joking is a subversive way of disarming the severity of the problem which slows the needed response down and hence gives me a sense of subversion.
That said, it's good information sometimes.
Ah, I see what you mean. That's pretty valid. Probably comes down to personal style and preference. I have always been one to laugh at and ridicule things that are stupid and yet seemingly outside of my control, so maybe that's why Anglin's antics strike a particular chord with me.
I would be willing to bet as well that much of the Stormer's following is owing to that silliness. It would be hard to argue there's not an advantage to it in terms of creating a following. On the other hand, here is an outlet that, as you said, has 'good information sometimes.' If it were presented with a straight face then maybe you could point to its articles or cite them as a source. In that sense the detour is a Faustian bargain. In the occasional moments where Anglin drops the facade, its obvious he's very passionate about the future of his people and the severity of our situation. But even with full awareness (if anyone has it) this problem is a tough nut to crack. Maybe we have to stay sane while we watch horrible events unfold, and a way to stay sane is to laugh.
