In a Monday front-page story “Amid the Kale and Corn, Fears of White Supremacy at the Farmers’ Market,” New York Times journalist Patrick Healy sounded the alarm about how the people at a farmer’s market in a “heavily white, liberal town of 85,000 that is home to Indiana University” have been fearing for their lives after it was discovered that a couple selling “tomatoes and kale were also white nationalists.”
Healy’s lede graphs were borderline comical (click “expand”):
Justin Williams was baking a tray of gluten-free seeded bread for the next morning’s farmers’ market when his phone buzzed. It was a friend who grows organic sprouts, nervously wondering if he should bring along a shotgun to market.
It has been a summer of fear, protest and tension in this crunchy college town ever since the popular Saturday morning farmers’ market was jolted by allegations that a husband and wife who had been longtime sellers of organic tomatoes and kale were also white nationalists.
The accusations exploded into public view after activists and online sleuths used federal court records and the leaked archives of a far-right message board to uncover a digital trail they say connects the couple who own Schooner Creek Farm to an organization that promotes white nationalism and “white American identity.”
The rumors of white supremacy amid the stalls of clover honey and sweet corn left farmers and shoppers reeling: Not even their seemingly placid farmers’ market was immune from the battles over extremism convulsing the country at a time of rising alarm over white supremacist violence.

Anyone who isn’t voting Democrat Socialist is a “White Nationalist”, no matter their opinions or history or actions.
Oh for God’s sake. The nuttiness of these people is so stupid. Make a big deal out of this so they can ruin the business of this farm that appears to harm no one.
Geesh
The Left is deliberately conflating the terms White Nationalist and White Supremacist, just like they have immigrant with illegal immigrant (alien). Control the language and they control the narrative.
Grow some tomatoes and BOOM! Red flagged for being a white nationalist. Or something.
Or fascist, racist, Nazi, homophobe, climate denier, misogynist, ...
Are the other farmers afraid of the supposed “white nationalists”? Or of Antifa showing up to attack them?
Any successful person who happens to be White , . Is a Nationalist.
Side bar Info: The final results are now in for
“The Iowa State Fair Corn Kernel 2020 POTUS Poll”, and the Republicans who were not even there, except for deadbeat Bill Weld (3% of the vote), beat the 24 Democrat, 2020 POTUS candidate group with 2 Republicans getting 33,280 votes cast and the 24 Democrat, 2020 POTUS candidates received 33,063 votes cast. The interesting finale vote is POTUS, Donald J.Trump vs, Democrat Joe Biden.
Final vote Trump vs.Biden (A Trump Landslide Victory Slaughter)
- Trump - 32,375 votes cast
- Biden - 8,143 votes cast
The rest of the total vote count are literally a Joke!!! The over 1,000,000 attendees at the Iowa State Fair evidently could care less about the Democrat 2020 POTUS, candidate group (all 24 of them). They neither cared about them or they were bored to death!!! On to the food goodies, great rides & attractions and the livestock exhibitions. Democrats....not so much!!! Shucks...who care about Democrat, Socialist & Communists low life deadbeats and losers!!! No one with half a brain!!!
Unlike the fake news urinalists, farmers actually work for a living.
Witch!
So...Is it the fluoride? Chlorine? Corn? Sugar? Dyes? Hormones? Antibiotics? All combined?
Something is making us collectively nuts...
The progs are hiding under their beds.
They want antee-tee to be viewed as moderate and demand "unarmed militia?
Noooo, the progs are not nuts and do not live in a false construct of reality that is bordering on Non-bizarre mood-neutral delusions.
They are absolutely rational and moderate in their beliefs.
Yep, they are fine.
.
Old news. 88 leaves per batch of greens in the pot because its the super food of super men.
Hopefully kale can get classified as “white supremisist food” and fall off the progressive food trend truck. That stuff is nasty.
Another pant load NYT article.
Lies, and more damned lies.
Written like an NPR story. Gluten free muffins and bringing a shotgun to market.
Total BS, fiction. Never happened.
just part of NYT’s announced shift from “Russian Collusion” to “Racist America” (without using the word “racist”)
The kale is just a “cover vegetable” to hide their white nationalism. Hi
