One of the funnier cases is a Scandanavian Communist party accused of being Nazi because they’ve rejected social justice.
Their party leader said that social justice was not acceptable. He said that focusing on sexual minorities distracted from the issues of their poor working class voters. He said that the social justice open borders brought in poor people from other countries that competed with their poor, making matters worse. And that the culture conflict and violence was hurting their voters.
And the head of the communist party in that Scandinavian country was called a Nazi for saying your policies hurt OUR poor, so we can’t do it anymore.
I knew The Economist jumped the shark during the GW Bush administration. They couldn’t for the life of them figure out why the USA supported Israel so much more than Europe did. They were at an almost total loss - leaving them to speculate that it must be Evangelical Christians influencing the foreign policy of the US for their own religious ends!
Think about that for a minute! Wow! Those wily, powerful, sneaky Evangelicals.
It never occurred to them to search for a sordid antisemitic history in Europe itself! You wouldn’t have to look to Europe’s medieval past, you could simply look in the last century. But, no! The intellectual giants at the Economist could only offer up the American Christians as the reason.
Gee.
