Rather: Republican Party Has Been ‘Playing with Fire of White Nationalism’
Breitbart ^ | 01/14/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/15/2021 6:13:30 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Former CBS News anchor Dan Rather said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that “the Republican Party as a whole and overwhelmingly has been playing with the fire of white nationalism.”

When asked if President Trump should be held accountable for the Capital Hill riot, Rather said, “The answer is yes. Donald Trump can be made to pay a price. I would argue that it is absolutely essential for the general health of our democracy in our country that that happen. And we can get things under control.”

Branding people who do not agree with you as White Supremacists gives license to dehumanizing the entire group. Any violence that happens to them is justified.

It’s not the truth that matters but the seriousness of the charge - Is this charge serious?

"White Nationalism" is an invention of enemedia which coincided with Charlottesville . . . mostly people with an appreciation of history who did not want Confederate monuments ripped down.

Even according to Southern Poverty Law Center (at the time), there are something like 10,000 of them nationwide. The real number is probably less than 5,000 since they are counting wives and children.

From what I've read, what little organization they have is based near Roanoke, Virginia and they travel around the country (including the handful at Charlottesville) to make their numbers seem inflated.

These are the real white nationalists, a pathetic handful of losers. Of course, the enemedia brands anyone who opposes the Stacey Abrams agenda as a white nationalist.

Odd how so many blacks, Latinos, and Asians are also white supremacists.

If frogs had side pockets, they’d carry hand guns. If Rather had any integrity he have a banana in his nose. The man is strange. What is the frequency?

That has been shown to be true throughout history. It’s how we are wired.

I still have not figured out what’s wrong with White Nationalism.

Sincerely.

So many use it as a pejorative, and I’m baffled by that.

“There are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers.”

Constrast to:

“...the democrat Party as a whole and overwhelmingly has been playing with the fire of totalitarian communism.”
