We often hear about the Soros family and even Steve Jobs’ wife, who are both funding the demise of America through failed and twisted globalist and Marxist policies, all in the name of so-called “progress.” While it’s crucial to keep a vigilant eye on the Soros boys and Laurene Powell Jobs, are there other dangerous threats that go unnoticed? It seems that way. Allow us to introduce you to a young man who stands to inherit one of the largest American fortunes. His name is Fergie Chambers, heir to the fortune of multibillion-dollar mega-conglomerate Cox Enterprises, and he’s a rabid political zealot armed with $250 million to fuel his very own communist revolution.
It’s a commune. It’s a “liberatory training space.” It’s a housing collective meets agricultural collective. It’s where the People’s Gym (“free for working-class people and permanently closed to cops, active military, landlords, and capitalists”) is located. It’s where the journal Combat Liberalism is based. It’s the headquarters for the Berkshire Communists group, which Fergie started. It’s where the Babochki Collective, the funding arm of all of Fergie’s projects, sometimes meets.
Fergie’s the General Secretary of the Berkshire Communists, which describes itself as a “revolutionary Marxist-Leninist collective, aiming to promote the formation of a powerful workers’ party.” But the urgent issue that late summer afternoon—before Hamas’s war against Israel; before Fergie called for “making people who support Israel actually afraid to go out in public”; before three of Fergie’s comrades were arrested on the roof a weapons manufacturer in New Hampshire—was that 16 comrades were descending on Alford for a weekend retreat, and it’s been pouring rain. The canvas tents they pitched on the property are letting in water. A skylight in one of the six houses there is leaking. The punching bags in the barn-turned-gym are in the wrong place.
“It’s just that, I spent a lot of money so this would be done right the first time,” Fergie says, exasperated. Today, at least, the revolution requires fifty-dollar stall mats from Tractor Supply Company to line the floor of the tents and keep out moisture.
Fergie wants you to know he’s a dedicated commie, and he also wants you to be very afraid that he has all this money to spend, spreading his hate. The FP article goes on:
Fergie Chambers, an avowed communist since the age of 13, wants everyone to hold it against him forever that he is heir to an enormous fortune. And he’s willing to go to enormous lengths to tear down the mechanisms—capitalism, imperialism, liberalism, the rule of law, America—that delivered it into his lap.
That struggle has taken him from the charming cobblestone streets of his Brooklyn childhood to the mountains of upstate New York to the lake country region of Georgia to the Donbas region of Ukraine and now, back to the woods of the American Northeast, where locals say that his radical political organizing has taken a menacing turn, especially when it comes to the Jewish state on which he’s uniquely fixated.
“Make Zionists afraid,” Fergie wrote in a post on his Instagram on November 15. In another he wrote: “We need to start making people who support Israel actually afraid to go out in public. We need to make all of white America afraid that everything they have stolen is going to be burned to the ground. That’s what makes them listen.”
Fergie has struck fear into townspeople, who are so scared of him and his cultists that a lot of times they avoid going out to dinner and will never go on the record complaining about the Marxist group.
“A lot of people are just scared,” one resident of Great Barrington, the larger town that abuts Alford, told me, referring to things Fergie has posted online in recent weeks.
“There is nothing more disgusting than rich people who do nothing to undermine the material position of their own class vaguely calling for peace and love,” Fergie wrote on Instagram on November 2. “It gives me actual bloodlust.”
“We’re frightened to go out to restaurants, or cafés in town. It’s chilling,” the man in Great Barrington added. He tells me that the police aren’t much help—“they won’t come”—when it comes to Fergie and his followers, and that he’s considering moving towns. (The police declined to comment and directed me to the DA’s office who, through a representative, emailed to say that “District Attorney Shugrue is aware of the comments and posts James Chambers has made. He is actively communicating with local law enforcement and community leaders regarding Chambers’ behavior.”)
Almost all of the people I spoke to who live in the area around Fergie’s compound refused to go on the record because they said they are scared of retaliation. “People are getting panicky,” one neighbor said.
In truth, this group appears to be nothing more or less than your typical violent and hateful Antifa faction—the same masked cowards who engage in riots, set cities ablaze, and sow terror among locals. Strangely, they’ve managed to avoid landing on the FBI’s “radar.” Instead, the agency seems preoccupied with arresting elderly Trump supporters who peacefully strolled through the US Capitol, almost like kind-hearted tourists.
The key point here is that Mr. Fergie Chambers should be on everyone’s radar, and his finances and connections should undergo thorough scrutiny. It wouldn’t surprise us if a significant portion of the upheaval caused by anti-American forces in the United States. is being funded by this petulant, wealthy brat.
