An attempt to make a Confederacy-promoting right-wing super hero movie has reportedly "ended in disaster" after $1 million in funders' money has gone completely missing.

he planned movie, called "Rebel's Run," was based on a comic book character created by far-right blogger Vox Day that features a hero named Rebel who is "sometimes depicted in a Confederate flag bustier" and who fights against "a global police force hunting down freethinking conservatives."
The film's troubles started when Day, whose given name is Theodore Beale, decided to use a Utah-based firm called Ohana Capital Financial to hold the $1 million he'd raised in donations for the movie in escrow.

The trouble, as Sommer writes, is that Ohana appears to have been a sham institution set up by a con artist.

"Antifa stole your money!"

On the one hand I have a morbid curiosity of just how bad it could have been. On the other hand:

Anytime or conservatives Grifted for their money its a good day

Right-wingers constantly falling victim to one obvious scam after another just goes to show that Antifa is far more powerful and widespread than we could have possibly imagined.
