" He[ George Galloway ] has for many years unequivocally stood up to defend the human rights of Palestinians, thundered against Israeli war crimes and demanded justice, leading him to be attacked as an anti-Semite."
The New York Times just gave these marching orders to the mainstream news media and to all loyal " progressive " Democrats : make RACISM - particularly the racism of white working class Americans , their proclivity for WHITE SUPREMACY - tying it into the root of all evil in the White House Donald Trump- make this the main theme of campaign 2020 .
Sad to see people who call themselves socialists recklessly brand independent thinkers racists and anti-Semites .
On the Left as well as on the Right there is now a lockstep conformity to party line and blowhard GREAT LEADERS. The FREE SPEECH and FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization is mocked ( along with Western Civilization ) . Why has Christianity become so anathema on the Left ?
For reasons never civilly explained this " nobody " was banned from the David North's World Socialist Web Site after having been smeared there as a " resident Catholic , anti-Semite , fascist " . NOBODY in his Socialist Equality Party cult bothered to question the smear . One SEP " Clear " ( they are so much like the Church of Scientology ) threatened to smash my face if GREAT LEADER David North approved.
Elsewhere in the mainstream news media any hint of criticism of Zionist Apartheid Israel quickly gets you BANNED from COMMENT liberty . Curiously I was also banned from the Brown Daily Herald Web Site ( I think after saying that Iran had as much right to nuclear weapons as Israel ) . . I was also banned from ABC on line. Perhaps somebody here can convince me that I am right down there with Hitler and his Third Reich ? Just produce the quotes.
