NPR deleted a tweet on Friday calling Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who was assassinated on Friday, “a divisive arch-conservative.”

“Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, a divisive arch-conservative and one of his nation’s most powerful and one of his nation’s most powerful and influential figures, has died after being shot during a campaign speech Friday in western Japan, hospital officials said,” tweeted NPR.

NPR reprinted the Associated Press report on Abe’s death, the first paragraph of which read the same as the tweet.

NPR is like the scorpion in the fable with the frog. Hate is in their DNA.

They have to support China to keep the backdoor money flowing, I guess.

These are the people responsible for setting the stage for these type of murders. NPR is one more embarrassing stain on the new disgusting example that is amerika,

For the left, it is always the conservative view on a topic that is the “divisive” view, and it is only conservative politicians who are “divisive.” This indicates the left’s sense of privilege and intolerance - only their views should be allowed.

I listen to NPR radio occasionally, just to see what the MSM/deep-state narratives are. NPR don’t screech or scream, nor speak in radical slogans. Their news and interviews are delivered in a manner of calm professionalism - but nonetheless, their leftist, woke, pro DC, pro deep-state narratives and smug intent to propagandize are very clear to anyone paying attention.

I simply can’t believe Fed.gov/Taxpayers fund this.

These are the same people that openly wept when Fidel Castro and Solemani (don’t care about the spelling) died.

Unless one is a flaming communist, NPR always labels folks as “arch divisive conservative”.

NPR is soooo out of the closet that they’re doing it mid day on tv. And those of us who actually produce things of value are paying to keep these Obamaholes in lattes.

“Divisive arch-conservative”. Of course. Conservatives are DIVISIVE. But libf**ks are all nice and tolerant. And you will be FORCED to be “tolerant”. Not divisive at all. That’s the reason the Netherlands is burning. Because DIVISIVE farmers don’t want to go out of business and starve under the enlightened, wonderful libf**ks’ policies.

The Leftist activist “media” is fomenting more and more as they prepare for a November landslide and an Trump run in 2024. Panic doesn’t begin to express their fears, so they are already whacked out, and getting worse.

I bet Jews who didn’t want to get into the train cars were called “divisive” by the Nazis too. Up until they were shot for non-compliance.
