The article itself mentions that the 2 examples it gives to state its premise were both "rightfully brushed off as raving lunatics."
Everyone agrees being an anti-semite is bad. The fact that people like Farrahkahn sit on the left doesn't mean all people on the left agree with those views. It doesn't mean they get a free pass. It's sorta how people on the right really hate it when you say "everyone who voted from Trump is a Nazi".
This seems to be very much mock outrage and false equivalencies.
- burfog 8y agoFarrakahn hasn't been rejected. You can find photos of him with Obama, the Clintons, and various high-level DNC people. Farrakhan got to visit the Whitehouse during the Obama administration. The anti-semites on the right have been rejected by the rest of the right. Perhaps we can consider David Duke to be on the right, but you won't find him at the Whitehouse. He has been solidly rejected.
