Goldberg Shacklestein
Goldberg Shacklestein (also known as The Happy Merchant) is a fictional Jewish leader of the New World Order- a racist caricature of a Jewish man made up by Samantha, one of Daniel's ex-managers, who Daniel believes is trying to kidnap and attack him.
Shacklestein is definitely one of Daniel's more extreme delusions and is a great piece of evidence for the case that he has schizophrenia.
History
Goldberg Shacklestein is a fictional Jewish man from New York who is represented by the hate symbol "The Happy Merchant", an antisemitic meme depicting a man with hyperbolized stereotypical Jewish facial features who is rubbing his hands together as if he were plotting something.
The meme was created by an artist using the pseudonym "A. Wyatt Mann", who eventually was exposed as being the notorious white supremacist, illustrator, and filmmaker Nick Bougas.[1][2]
Association with the Alt-Right
Typically, the caricature of "Goldberg Shekelstein" has been used on some of the less mainstream parts of the internet by Neo-Nazis and the Alt-Right to propagate hate towards Jewish Americans, and Jews in general.
Daniel's delusions
- Trying to kidnap him along with the mafia (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwFQd3v5qJA)
- Possibly (through associations with the New World Order) assisting Jonas in collecting his and Samantha's semen (https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/r48mfu/semen_stealing_arc/)
Associations & Criminal History
Daniel has accused Shacklestein of a plethora of crimes, including attempting, commissioning, committing murder, kidnapping, collaboration with the Mafia, and political corruption.
Kidnapping
He has been accused of pairing up with and collaborating with the New York Mafia, the Jews, Jonas, and a man named Tony (not to be confused with Tony Martinez) to kidnap Daniel for, apparently, no reason. Daniel claims to not be afraid of them, despite having made videos pleading for them to back off.[3]
New World Order
Daniel has accused Shacklestein of being the leader of the Jews and the New World Order, with the common goal of kidnapping him.[4] This is another piece of evidence for Daniel's schizophrenia, considering how idiotic the entire idea is.
The New World Order is a conspiracy theory that a totalitarian shadow government controlled by the elites and the Jews has complete control over every world government. This theory is obviously wrong, as such a powerful government with so much to lose would be able to eliminate and wipe the existence of anybody who tried to expose their existence.
Jonas
Jonas, a former caretaker for Daniel whom Daniel assaulted, has been accused by Daniel of cooperating with the New World Order and secretly pulling strings from the background.
