Irony Lost On MSNBC's Cross When It Comes To Provoking Violence
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 08/23/2022 3:07:51 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

The irony was lost on Cross.

In the opening minutes of her MSNBC show on Saturday, Tiffany Cross heaped personal insults on Donald Trump. She called him: "the Mangled Mussolini" [whatever that's supposed to mean], "the Velveeta Voldemort," and "a wounded animal, cornered."

A bit later, Cross brought in Naureen Chowdhury Fink to discuss the risks of political polarization and incitement to violence. Although she predictably singled out right-wing extremism, her remarks were, in fact, of general applicability.

In particular, Chowdhury Fink said:

"One of the first steps to violence that we see is kind of dehumanizing or otherizing a group of people."

Imagine an impressionable member of Cross's audience hearing that Donald Trump is the equivalent of a fascist dictator responsible for the death of millions and the "most evil wizard for hundreds and hundreds of years." What should you do to such an evil, genocidal, person? Indeed, he's not even a person, he's an "animal!"

Clueless Tiffany Cross, with her vile insults of Donald Trump, is, by her own words, provoking violence against the right.

Projection ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

Oh my. Never heard of these people. I'm more likely to be hit by a meteor than accidentally stumble into this cesspit.

Sickening, stupid little racists having their hateful slime fest on live TV. These people deserve to face the violence that they constantly promote

One of the insults that leftists have hurled at President Trump over the years is to call him "mango mussolini". That's what she was likely trying to call him but she was too stupid to realize the original insult was mango, not mangled.

Thanks, Gary. It’s likely she did call him the Mango Mussolini, and that I misheard it!

I just love their Semi-Psycho-Techno-Pop-Wokie-Babble, “Otherizing”. I’ve been ‘otherized’ as a male white supremacist honkey dude myself. Oh, the agony of da feet. Let your laughter fill the room.
