Chicago Dyke March story cost me my job, says reporter
Jewish Telegraphic Agency ^ | July 17, 2017 4:42pm | Ben Sales

The journalist who first reported the ejection of three Jewish women from Chicago’s Dyke March tweeted that she was removed from her reporting job because of that article.

In a tweet Monday, Gretchen Rachel Hammond wrote to Dyke March’s Twitter account that “You attacked, humiliated and robbed me of a job.” Hammond confirmed to JTA on the same day that she wrote the tweet.

Hammond said she could not elaborate on her tweet, citing an agreement with her employer, the Windy City Times. […]

The Dyke March itself has fielded criticism for using an anti-Semitic slur, tweeting on July 13 that “Zio tears replenish my electrolytes.” White supremacists, including former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, have used the term “Zio,” derived from Zionist, as a slur for Jews.

On July 14, the Dyke March deleted the tweet and apologized, saying it “didn’t know the violent history of the term.”

Sorry y'all! Definitely didn't know the violent history of the term. We meant Zionist/white tears replenish our electrolytes 😭

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, by assuming you just didn’t read the article carefully. Does this mean you think it’s O.K. for the reporter to lose her job; because she told an ‘inconvenient truth’ about the Dyke March organizers?

Yes, indeed. I think I said it more succinctly, but yes, that's exactly how I feel.

Is that because you prefer reporters to lie to you; or, is it because you agree with the march organizers?

You don't really believe that those are the only two possible reasons for my comment, do you?

LOL. It is too much effort to wonder when you are going to run afoul of the PC police...

"Hammond, formerly an award-winning reporter for the Chicago LGBT newspaper, "
 
What does this mean?
 
 
psy·cho·sis
sīˈkōsəs/
noun
  1. a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.
 
It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.
 
The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.
--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov
--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)

Reality:

XX + XX = FAIL

XY + XY = FAIL

XX + XY = Human

I can think of several possibilities -- but, they'd all be guesses, because you still haven't made your message clear. You've told me a couple of things you didn't mean -- but, you're still leaving your readers hanging about what you did mean. Being vague isn't the same as being succinct.

I think that firing a reporter (of whatever sexual orientation/deviancy) for telling a truth that ‘deviates’ from the party line; is a case-in-point of the brainwashing process your post discusses.

The blatant antisemitism of the march organizers (and, by extension, the whole rainbow crowd) was the main issue here — along with the fake news angle.

You’re a long-term poster here in FR (one of the originals?) and you’ve got me worried here.

Could you please say what you think about this subject again, but in completely different words.

As much as possible, don’t use any of the words you already used, because it does sound like... well, never mind what it sounds like... just say what it is you really think.
