Conservatives have promoted white nationalism for years. Now it's time to call them out. |
These are the words of Max Boot, a conservative agitator who is distancing himself from the modern day agitators who he once considered friends.
His words are correct. This is not conservatism. This is white nationalism. Donald J. Trump and the Republican Party has decided to embrace white nationalism. He has decided
It's unfortunate that social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter continue to allow white nationalism, conservative bullshit and far-white kookspiracies.
They are spreading the gospel of white privilege and supremacy. It's masqueraded as news, infotainment, social movements and activism. This is a coordinated effort by far-white lawmakers, Donald J. Trump and agitators in the media.
Norte Dame Cathedral's destruction. Glenn Beck and far-white agitators were blaming Muslims for this. |
Rules that continue to roll back progress. Policies continue to send us into endless wars.
This phony patriotism is not conservatism.
Conservatives became a product of their own making.
Take last night. The social media was lit over the tragic fire that destroyed the Cathedral Norte Dame in Paris, France. The French government determined the incident was accidental However on social media the far-white has already assumed that incident is an act of "Islamic" terrorism.
Glenn Beck and many other outlets were quick to peddle kookspiracies and spread insinuations against Muslims in the wake of the blaze, that gutted parts of the historical building.
Beck who is part-owner of Blaze TV (with Mark Levin) said on his program that he believes Islamists were responsible without any valid proof.
"If this was an arson, this is going to be bad. If this was arson of any foreign - kind of - any foreign entity, any - anybody with a grudge, I think if - if, and this is a huge if - it might have just been started by a cigarette. We don't know. But if this was started by Islamists, I don't think you find out about it, because I think it would set the entire country on fire."
Pam Geller, a far-white bigot who promotes false kookspiracies about Muslims decided to make the case against jihadists. She claims that Muslims are expressing joy at the destruction of an iconic building. Mind you, Paris, France has a Muslim population and they were shocked to see this happen.
Then we have Laura Ingraham. The far-white agitator was talking about the funeral of Nipsey Hussle.
During her talk about the rapper, she brought up the song FDT (Fuck Donald Trump). The agitator was mocking the rapper's death and his criticism of the imbecile.
Ingraham had footage of Compton rapper Y.G, in the montage instead of Nipsey Hussle. That set the hip-hop community off.
Many are calling for the agitator to be fired out the cannon.
These are the latest examples of white nationalism at its worst. We are giving these folks a platform and it's got to stop.
I don't want to silence them. However, I do want companies that advertise with them to consider the following.
1. Would you allow your own children to talk like that if you are given a voice in public discussion?
2. Would you like it if we all just went unfiltered and say things that makes everyone uncomfortable?
3. Would your investors enjoy having this type of nonsense?
Think about it. If we didn't give them a voice, they would be back scrubbing someone toilet.
Conservatives are dangerous individuals. The treatment of women of color, Muslims, Black men, Native Americans and migrants.
