USA Today: Donald Trump's 'nationalism' isn't racist or wrong, it's what America needs right now

CNN: Protest at Tucker Carlson's home went too far

This goes beyond protesting to harassing and threatening.

Indeed, Antifa is an extreme, violent fringe movement on the left that does far, far more harm in every sense than good and whose bad behavior has been repeatedly used to smear the entire progressive left.

Daily Wire: Women’s March Loses Human Rights Award Due To Rampant Anti-Semitism

Quote:
The Friedrich Ebert Foundation (FES, because in German it’s known as Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung), a German think tank for its social democratic party, was slated to award the Women’s March with its Human Rights Award on November 12, but has now withdrawn the group’s nomination, according to the Jerusalem Post.

The members then lay out some examples of anti-Semitism from Women’s March board member Linda Sarsour, who said feminists could not also be Zionists and that Zionists were Nazis. Sarsour also supports the BDS movement and has called Israel an apartheid state. Sarsour, along with Carmen Perez and Tamika D. Mallory, have also supported anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan, who has compared Jews to termites.

It didn't start or stop there, either. Alysa Milano was the first celebrity to come out against this, and now it seems that others will join her.

Daily Wire: Debra Messing Joins Alyssa Milano, Condemns Anti-Semitic Women's March Leaders

Quote:
Sarsour has often been accused of anti-Semitism, attending Farrakhan's events and defending the virulently anti-Semitic leader. Just last week, in a post-election appearance on Democracy Now's livestream network, Sarsour, who appointed herself a leader in the Women's March's efforts to battle anti-Semitism, blamed the Democratic Party's support for the nation of Israel for its lackluster performance in the 2018 midterms.

Mallory has been an outspoken advocate for Farrakhan and his organization, and was in attendance earlier this year at a "Savior's Day" event in Chicago where Farrakhan preached against the Jewish people, comparing them to the spawn of Satan. She refused to rebuke Farrakhan, instead calling him the "GOAT [greatest of all time]" and claiming Farrakhan and Jesus shared a common enemy (the Jews, of course).

Sarsour defended Mallory, accusing Mallory's critics of racism.

The Women's March has not condemned Farrakhan, instead releasing a milquetoast defense of Mallory's "intersectionality." Until they are more vocal in condemning anti-Semitism, Milano — and now Messing — say they will not be a part of their events or movement.

I was going to add this stuff to the SJW will eat itself thread, and I still might, but I thought it would be good to highlight all of these developments on their own.

Maybe if the Democrats can start ousting the people on the fringes that make them look so terrible they will look like a more palatable choice in the future.

I'm honestly shocked that celebrities are coming out against Islamic leaders and their vile and diseased ideology.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

But the idiocy goes even farther, with French Prez Macron saying "patriotism isn't nationalism". WTH?? He and Justin Trudeau have turned their heads a full 360 and are now spouting arrant nonsense.

Still, I'm happy with baby steps!
