Disturbed Musings From a Random Mind

Because Racism/anti-Semitism never ends

I woke up this morning to a story from the Daily Beast:

Not only did the guy pictured above tear down a Happy Hanukah sign in from of the state capitol of Texas (Austin) last year, he also has done this:

“…promoted antisemitism in the past, publishing a gas chamber meme on social media and hanging out with Holocaust deniers like white nationalist leader Nick Fuentes. In 2017, …[ ]marched in the white supremacist “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville. Footage of …crying out for milk at the rally after being maced later went viral.”

I deleted his name because he’s an asshole, and because I wanted to. He’s such an asshole, and such a coward. Tearing down a Hanukah sign. Oh how brave. What a proud boy he must be.

How cowardly is it to hide behind your skin, to think that precious lack of color makes you something, anything, but what you are — someone so pathetic as to believe in the Nazis. And so very vile.
