Continuing our series of exposés on the White Art Collective, a group of white nationalist musicians, artists and writers, today we present to you thirty-three year old Joseph Lee Shellabarger Jr., of Cary, North Carolina, a DJ who uses the stage names "DJ Boxkhar" and "Modernity Leave," among others. Instead of scratching records this neo-Nazi DJ should be scratching his head, wondering where he went wrong in life. Read on!
Before falling headfirst into the toilet of racism, antisemitism, and Nazism, North Carolina native Joseph Lee Shellabarger Jr. was very active in the dance music community under a variety of names including Benny Fishel, and Djfear808. But despite the multicultural inclusiveness of electronic dance music, Shellabarger dove head-first into the cesspool of white supremacy. Not only is Shellabarger a prolific electronic music artist and DJ, but is also a racist, antisemite and genuine neo-Nazi.
As "DJ Boxkhar," Shellabarger is active with the White Art Collective (also known as "WAC") and sells music through their website, appears on their live streams and at their music festivals. WAC has stated their intent to soften Nazi rhetoric to expand appeal, so here we are again with another one of their efforts. Along with his appearances with the White Art Collective, he also appears regularly on a Goyim Defense League live stream called “The Funky Side of Fash.” The Goyim Defense League is a white supremacist group that has been traveling the country aggressively pushing antisemitism via confrontational public actions. Shellabarger also appeared regularly on the openly Nazi "NS Attacke" live stream and posts neo-Nazi propaganda in their Telegram chats.
Not content to just participating in other neo-Nazi groups, Shellabarger formed his own half-baked neo-Nazi organization, the "White Alliance Movement" (WAM), using another alias "AryanWaffen." As AryanWaffen and "Modernity Leave," Shellabarger's White Alliance Movement pushed "read Siege" accelerationism, referring to the book Siege written by neo-Nazi James Mason. Their slogan was "Intolerance Is The Key To Dominance." The White Alliance Movement's now-deleted YouTube video channel posted numerous racist, antisemitic, neo-Nazi propaganda videos, openly encouraging racially-motivated violence and starting a "race war." Under his "Modernity Leave" banner, Shellabarger had plans for his own "For Whites, By Whites" music and art collective.
Shellabarger is certainly one of the most terminally on-line Nazis we have ever seen, with dozens of active profiles on nearly every internet social media, streaming, fundraising and video platform we have heard of, spreading his Nazi trash.
The notion of a "white art collective," comprised of confirmed neo-Nazis, leading any sort of “cultural renaissance” is a pitiable conceit. It doesn’t require a music degree to see that hip-hop and DJ arts are almost entirely derived from Black culture, which makes Shellabarger's extreme racism all the more perplexing considering his musical interests. Even this racist dipshit admitted to being "influenced by the Detroit and Chicago sound." We are trying to wrap our heads around that one.
Shellabarger's interest in video gaming is what led us to him. We found a Steam account for "Boxkhar," which uses a Nazi totenkopf ("death's head") image for its profile, and noted that a prior user name for the account was "Benny Fishel," a name he had used previously. This led to both his name and a business called "Deepwerk Label." His Deepwerk Label took on the trappings of the alt-right with "Pepe the Frog" and "Wojak" images.
Joseph Lee Shellabarger Jr is accustomed to making bad choices in life. Of course the worst of these was becoming a white nationalist, but we have found that he has a made a habit of being arrested for such things as obtaining "property under false pretense," "injury to real property" and "misdemeanor larceny." While we don't judge people by their petty run-ins with the law, it's fair to say that Shellabarger has some issues with impulse control. Couple that with being a neo-Nazi scumbag and you have one questionable dude.
Joseph Lee Shellabarger Jr is just another of the neo-Nazi numbskulls of the White Art Collective who are attempting to bring white nationalism into mainstream culture. He's our latest exposed, but not the last. Rest assured, we are not done with the White Fart Collective yet!
