'Forest Defenders' Had Financial Backing from a Millionaire Communist

I could have put this in the anti-woke thread but I thought it deserved its own thread. I hope the FBI is keeping an eye on him. Why would his family give him any money:

Let me just say up front that millionaire communists are my favorite kind of communists. I enjoy the way they slum it with their blue-collar comrades and then give lengthy interviews to leftist magazines bragging about spending their inherited wealth for the cause and basically bigging themselves up as the most radical of radicals..

Fergie Chambers is a descendant of the billionaire Cox family. In the past six months there have been at least two feature articles about him and his funding of various fashionable leftist causes. The first one appeared last October in LA Magazine:

The 38-year-old self-described Communist confirmed to Los Angeles magazine in an interview this week that some of his wealth is paying the legal fees for members of Palestine Action. The activist group targets Israeli defense contractors and has recently opened a chapter in the United States.

"I chant death to America every day. Imperialism is the death of humanity," Chambers tells Los Angeles.

Fergie Chambers is Heir to One of America’s Richest Families — and Determined to See the U.S. Fall

James Cox Chambers Jr. is in Gresham Park, in southeast Atlanta, bouncing on the balls of his feet, shadowboxing the air in front of him. Dressed in a black hoodie with a Palestinian flag on it, black sweatpants, black New Balances, black-and-red work gloves, a white-and-black keffiyeh, with a balaclava ski mask perched on his head, Chambers is surrounded by a growing crowd. But at that moment, focused on his warmup routine, he looks very much alone.

Paige Belanger joins him on the grass, and for a few minutes, they practice arm drags, a move Chambers picked up in mixed-martial-arts training. Belanger is a member of the Babochki Collective, a group Chambers recently formed to help turn the vast fortune he’s inherited into a socialist revolution.

“Just remember, you want to go out and away,” he tells her. “It’s a good tactic for de-arresting yourself.”

The contingent in the park, which will grow to more than 500 people, is preparing to march to the construction site where the city is clear-cutting an urban forest to build a controversial police training center its detractors have dubbed “Cop City.” The movement to stop it has been growing for more than two years and has catalyzed different wings of the progressive left — environmentalists, social-justice crusaders, police abolitionists — into a loosely unified front. Chambers, who most people know as Fergie or Jim, has considered himself a communist since his teenage years and has been on the front line of many left-wing demonstrations over the past decade. A month earlier, he’d locked himself to the front door of an Israeli weapons manufacturer in Cambridge, Massachusetts; three weeks later, he was arrested for defacing a McDonald’s at a pro-Palestine rally in Washington, D.C. This protest, though, is more personal.

If its Fergie Chambers' money, it is his to do with as he sees fit (though if I were him, I would spend a couple hundred bucks and change my name to something other than Fergie).
