“Instead of Pepe the frog, why didn’t someone paint a hammer and sickle next to his mural?”

Because no one would notice.

I think Pepe is a great symbol and should appear everywhere the powers of the Left attempt to impose there will. Pepe means “Resistance” Its like the “V” painted over Nazi Posters.

“Isn’t he a joo? Joo’s are universally despised by the left, EXCEPT if they can accuse a right winger of fake anti-semitism.”


It is the same as Chinese, who are ‘people of color’ when it comes to say, ‘virus discrimination’ but aren’t when it comes to college admissions

Why were none of the BLM riots ever classified as hate crimes?

Cops were called to the site Saturday by one of the artists involved who felt the vandalism might be “motivated by hate or bias of political or religious affiliation,” a police report obtained by The Post shows.

Since when are acts motivated by political differences considered "hate crimes?!"

Would tearing down a swastika-emblazoned flag count as a "hate crime?!"

Regards,

How do we know that this alleged hate crime is due to Sanders’ Jewish faith? It’s also interesting how “official graphitti” gets protection in DC and other inner cities.

It’s freakin’ graffiti, who cares that it was painted over. Good grief. Shouldn’t even be a news story. It’s treated like it was a valuable painting in his office or home.

I thought it was legal to hate all white men?

We did not think of that when they were stroking confederate statues. It’s a hate crime.

I have a couple of questions.
What was the Bernie “mural” painted over?
Is it okay for conservatives to say “Bern the System”?
