JACKSON, NJ – Small business owner, Chris Pollak, a karate instructor and owner of Hybrid Combat Karate school in Jackson Township, has announced he is running for town council in one of the “Trumpiest” towns in New Jersey.
Now, questions are being raised about his activist past after his ties to a radical anti-fascist group based in his hometown of New York City surfaced this week.
Pollak, a former member of several New York City superhero-themed street vigilante groups such as Real Life Superheroes, Ronin, and the New York City initiative, is also tied to the radical far-left anti-fascist group “Fags Fight Back”.
While a member of the New York Initiative superhero vigilante group, Pollak and his sidekicks formed a long-lasting alliance with Fags Fight Back, even marching in solidarity with them in the annual New York City Pride Parade. The New York City Initiative this week confirmed Pollak’s status in the organization, which to this day, remains united with Fags Fight Back.
The group, which formed to defend homosexual New Yorkers from discrimination aggressively, quickly evolved into an anti-fascist, anti-Donald Trump, and anti-conservative political mouthpiece.
It’s a far cry from the sleepy, predominantly conservative community of Jackson Township.
Jackson Township has been named one of the top 5 “Trumpiest” towns in New Jersey after winning a vast majority of votes in the 2016, 2020, and 2024 presidential elections.

Now Pollak, a former urban street activist turned small business owner is hoping he can sway the majority Republican town to vote for him in November.
Pollak’s campaign is using far-left radical propaganda to create tension and anger in the community of 65,000 that includes a large growing Orthodox Jewish population.
He has been pitting neighbors against neighbors in order to divide the town, creating an enemies list to ‘fight’ against.
His opponent, Al Couceiro, a Republican, said there’s no reason for the town to be divided and pitted against each other.
“We are all fighting the same enemies, Trenton, and the Trenton legislature that has caused the problems in Jackson,” Couceiro said. “Our enemy is not our neighbor. We need to unite as a town if we wish to solve our problems.”
Couceiro said he is supporting Republican candidate for governor Jack Ciattarelli, and if they both win in November, they will fix the problem at the source, Trenton, together, with the town council, mayor and the residents of Jackson.
“Affordable housing mandates, cuts to school funding, housing shortages, illegal multi-family rentals…these are the problems the entire state is facing under eight years of Governor Phil Murphy,” Couceiro said. “Fighting amongst ourselves is not going to solve the problems that are changing Jackson from the town I grew up and am raising my children in.”
Pollak, on the other hand, has just recently moved to town and has not publicly endorsed a candidate for Governor in the New Jersey race, and continues to bash local elected officials for mandates being forced upon the township by Phil Murphy, the Democrat legislature, and the Department of Justice.
As for Pollak’s ties to Fags Fight Back, he has not commented on the matter.
We will continue our indepth look into both candidates running for council in Jackson, Stay tuned! Up next, Chris Pollak’s sordid past from a fallen Guardian Angel to his public apology for falsely accusing an innocent book author of being a pedophile and the real reason why Pollak left several superhero groups and the Guardian Angels on bad terms. Also, why all of his accounts were banned from Facebook. He blames the township council, but his former superhero mates told Shore News Network the real story of posts filled with hate, anger, antisemitism, false attacks, and threats, going back at least 10 years.
