1. @Honeybee You say that a lot and it’s cute, or at least it was the first couple of times, if insulting but I haven’t a clue as to what it is you are objecting to.

2. He talks about Jews taking ownership of black culture in a modern version of slavery and I was reminded of Hitler and the composer who influenced him railing about Jews dominating German culture. Found this piece by a Jewish music student.

   “…Wagner is one of the most famous composers of all time; however, he was notoriously anti-Semitic. Many of the evil characters in his operas were portrayed using commonly known anti-Semitic stereotypes. In addition, Wagner wrote a paper called “Jewishness in Music,” which denigrated his Jewish counterparts, such as Mendelson. He also wrote other papers about the negative effects of Jewish culture on German society. Basically, Wagner was not a great guy.

   ‘After rehearsal was over, I went to the library to look up the piece. I quickly learned that Wagner’s “Rienzi Opera” was actually a favorite of Hitler’s. People have written that Hitler’s idea of “the perfect race” was inspired by “Rienzi,” which Hitler first saw when he was 15. I was even more disturbed to find out the “Rienzi Overture” was played at the beginning of Hitler’s Nuremberg Rallies…

   I really don’t care if he supports Trump. People are going to listen to him and go out and hurt Jews.

3. and Charles Coughlin, whose publication was entitled, “Social Justice,” rolled into one.

4. Kanye West Gets Into Heated Argument With Chris Cuomo Over Anti-Semitism, Buying Parler & Kim Kardashian: Watch

   A black Henry Ford?

5. @Honeybee Or Tucker Carlson or Joe Rogen who hosted Roger Waters. They all support Trump.

6. @Honeybee If only policy positions matter and not rhetoric, you should have no problem with Kanye West.

7. @Honeybee Not sure what you are referring to. Did you watch the video? It’s between Pinion, a black Republican former news host on Newsbreak and Chuck Schumer for US Senate.

8. Sebastien Zorn Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.

9. I can’t make up my mind about Joe Pinion. Everything he is saying is right and he does defend Israel, at least from the charge of apartheid – he said there are other arguments to be made for the pals but they are not being made, I forget if it’s in this interview, but the way he rants about “Schumer and his friends” keeping black kids in bad schools so they can make money” gave me pause.

10. @Honeybee This article answers my question. A lot of people saw it and responded to it before it was taken down. He is an antisemite.

11. @Honeybee Whose word will you blindly take? Twitters. Who actually saw the post? Doesn’t say. Was he asked about the post?

12. Sebastien “I heard nothing objectionable in the section of the interview she cites either about Kushner but did he tweet this or not” Really?????

13. I heard nothing objectionable in the section of the interview she cites either about Kushner but did he tweet this or not? It’s been removed.

14. Candace was wrong in her explanation of her answer to the question, “Was Hitler a nationalist?” You can be a nationalist and and an imperialist at the same time. They are not mutually exclusive. A nationalist can also kill a minority within their own country. They are not inconsistent.
    She is intrepid to enter the fray on the Kanya West remarks.
