Musician and alternative icon Courtney Love has blasted anti-Donald Trump Women’s March leader and Muslim activist Linda Sarsour, calling her a “vile disgrace to women and all mankind” in a message on social media Wednesday.
“You’re a vile disgrace to women and all mankind [Linda Sarsour],” posted Love, the former partner of the late Nirvana musician Kurt Cobain, before engaging in an argument with Women’s March social media head Alyssa Klein.

In 2011, Sarsour also expressed her desire to “take the vagina away” from Ayaan Hirsi Ali, an ex-Muslim activist and a victim of female genital mutilation.
“I wish I could take their vaginas away,” Sarsour declared, referencing Ayaan Hirsi Ali and ACT for America founder Brigitte Gabriel for their criticism of Islam. “They don’t deserve to be women.”
According to Alex VanNess, director of the Middle East Peace & Security Project at Secure Freedom, Sarsour “also has a long history of criticizing Israel in ways that cross the line into anti-Semitism and terrorist sympathizing.”
“She supports the discriminatory and terror-tied BDS Movement and has claimed that ‘nothing is creepier’ than Zionism,” he reported in February. “She called for solidarity with Muhammad Allan, a member of the terrorist group Palestinian Islamic Jihad who has a history of recruiting suicide bombers.”
Sarsour has also previously called the act of throwing rocks at Israelis “courage.”
In May, Pamela Geller and former Breitbart senior editor Milo Yiannopoulos protested Sarsour’s commencement address at The City University of New York.

Good for Courtney Love! She’ll need support from the nasty backlash that’s no doubt on the way.
Yes.
Courtney Love gets it right for once.
Never thought I’d say that.
Courtney Love wasn’t always what people believe her to be and quite possibly never has been. She was more than just decent looking at one time, too.
Kurt Cobain’s suicide messed her up, in my opinion. Maybe she’s finally crawling out of it.
You are on a roll today, Sir!
Yes.
Well, I guess Courtney Love is a better person than I imagined her to be. Perhaps she’s just pro-woman and sees the hypocrisy but she shows courage nevertheless.
V-power!
Never thought I’d say that, either.
I watched it and listened to the lyrics and she is pretty good.
wow. Courtney had a sober moment. Here’s to many more!
She never joined the “27 club” and with age comes wisdom. I hope she keeps it together as I have a different opinion of her after reading this.
She’s about to face massive backlash from the left. Of which I’ve always assumed her to be a part of.
Wow..whether you agree with the power of social media or not, Courtney Love destroyed Sarsour & called her out like the fraud she is.
She definitely got people 2nd guessing Sarsour & maybe woke up some of the gullible snowflakes..one can hope.
Courtney seems like a tough girl, she hopefully won’t backdown from the backlash coming.
That’s it.
The reality of the most vile, misogynist “culture” on the planet.
It’s hip and cool to live like a wraith wrapped in sackclothes?
Really?
I thought the entire Women’s Liberation Movement was about the opposite.
Even Courtney Love can call that.
I’ve admired her since the 90’s, despite many here on FR having a strong dislike of her. She didn’t help herself with a few majorly blitzed public appearances. She fell into substance abuse after Kurt Cobain killed himself, they were a couple at the time.
Courtney Love does the math
The controversial singer takes on record label profits, Napster and “sucka VCs.”

Maybe crazy, but not stupid.
An interesting accounting of the music business.
I was on a 90s alternative music thread just last night and mentioned that I’d been on a 90s kick recently and had to pulled out CDs of a number of classic alt. bands including Nirvana. I’ve never owned any Hole albums, but tonight may be a good time to download my first!
Thank you, Courtney, for speaking out!!
