I see Sarman is on a first name basis with "Kevin."

WHO is Sarman's Kevin?

MacDonald has an extensive following among white nationalists and neo-Nazis.[24] Former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke has praised MacDonald's work on his website.[25] Neo-Nazi Victor Gerhard wrote in a 2003 E-mail exchange that MacDonald's The Culture of Critique "is completely true; that to rail against blacks and Hispanics without mentioning Jews is like complaining about the symptoms and not the disease."[20]

When MacDonald won his award from The Occidental Quarterly, the ceremony was attended by: David Duke; Don Black, the founder of white supremacist site Stormfront; Jamie Kelso, a senior moderator at Stormfront; and the head of the neo-Nazi National Vanguard, Kevin Alfred Strom.[20]

MacDonald testified in defense of convicted Holocaust denier David Irving, where he alleged that the suppression of Irving's work was "an example of Jewish tactics for combating anti-Semitism."[20][22] MacDonald was quoted as saying he was an "agnostic" in regards to the Holocaust, though he denied the accuracy of the quote.[20][23] MacDonald's testimony caused a backlash among his colleagues.

. . . The SPLC also criticized MacDonald for publishing in, and receiving a 10,000 dollar grant from, the white supremacist publication The Occidental Quarterly.[20] MacDonald is now a member of the publications Editorial Advisory Board as well as the main contributor to its website and editor of its blog. Many of its articles attract readers who in the comments section explicitly argue in favor of discrimination, violence and genocide aimed at Jews and other minority groups. In October 2004, he accepted the Jack London Literary Prize from The Occidental Quarterly, using the award ceremony as an occasion to argue for the need for a "white ethnostate" to maintain high racial birthrates. . . .

CSULB dissociates from MacDonald's views

In late 2007 the Cal State Long Beach Psychology Department began the process of formally dissociating itself from MacDonald's views on Judaism, which in some cases are "used by publications considered to publicize neo-Nazi and white supremacist ideology."[4] The department's move to dissociate followed a discussion of MacDonald's December forum presentation at meeting of the department's advisory committee that concerned his ethics and methodologies.[4]In an e-mail sent to the college's Daily Forty-Niner newspaper, MacDonald noted that he had already pledged not to teach about race differences in intelligence as a requirement for teaching his psychology class, and expressed that he was "not happy" about the dissociation. The newspaper also reported that in the e-mail, MacDonald confirmed that his books contained what the paper described as "his claims that the Jewish race was having a negative effect on Western civilization."[4]
