Forget, for a moment, the fact that not only has President Trump denounced ‘white supremacist” groups frequently and unequivocally, but he’s done it roughly 100% more than Joe Biden has denounced “Anti”-Fa.
What if the ‘group’ that the press is mau-mauing on command…
…isn’t “white supremacist” at all?
But there’s a small problem with this narrative about the Proud Boys besides the fact that Trump didn’t even know who they were and has no connection with them.
First, Proud Boys have brawled with Antifa because they regard anarcho-Communism as a danger to Western society. They’re not the ones rioting in the streets attacking the police and other people, that’s BLM/Antifa who have been the leftists’ shock troops to push radical reform. The only group that seems to be connected to a political party and political agenda is BLM/Antifa. The Biden campaign specifically endorsed the BLM during their convention and has yet to denounce BLM/Antifa violence by name. Joe Biden even denied the existence of Antifa, completely ignoring their involvement in hundreds of BLM connected riots in the last few months.
Second, there’s another problem with the accusation. Proud Boys have members of all races and have black, Hispanic and Asian leaders. They may be many things but white supremacists they aren’t, they’re multi-racial.
They didn’t like Joe Biden calling them white supremacists and following that came out in Salt Lake City, Utah to publicly say they were not in any way white supremacists.
I can’t speak for the “Proud Boys” – of whom I’ve heard very little, notwithstanding the fact that I’m, well, not tuned out of that scene.
But I do recall the local media and DFL (ptr) riffing on the “Boogaloo Boys” during the “Anti”-fa tantrum last May, as if they were a “white supremacist” group…
…when, in fact, they tend to be radical libertarians. And the closest person I’ve ever know to a Boog was in an interracial marriage.
#shrug.
If you get it from the media or Democrats, it’s probably wrong, likely intentionally so.
if you are part of the TC Arts community or as they like to fashion themselves the TC Creative Class™, the settled consensus is that BLM/Antifa are not responsible for any of the rioting, burning, and looting that occurred since May it was all the action of paid KKK/Nazi/Boogaloo Boys/Proud Boys/Trumpsters at the direction of Koch et al. Just ask Paddyboi/Emery(s). Its an incurable affliction.
They didn’t like Joe Biden calling them white supremacists
So much so, they are suing Joe Biden and his campaign. Lin is going to very, very rich.
Biden’s slander of the Proud Boys reminds me about the old proverb about a lie going ten miles while the truth is still getting its pants on.
(Biden’s slander, and that in general of the left….also seems to proceed from the reality that if you have no substantive argument, cry “racism”)

People should stop pretending to be confused here. Trump clearly is coordinating with and in favor of open white supremacist militias armed with assault rifles.
There’s really not much more to debate on this topic. If you want a president that is an extremist white supremacist, he’s your guy.
Emery is halfway there.
but when you actually consider the records of both men;
Joe Biden’s stance on busing, Joe Biden’s warm relationship with a Grand Cyclops of the KKK,
Joe Biden’s treatment of Clarence Thomas,
Joe Biden’s treatment of Anita Hill,
Joe Biden’s direct input into the 1994 crime bill,
Joe Biden’s eulogy for Robert Byrd
it becomes clear.
If you want to vote for a White Supremacist you Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris(a direct descendant of slave holders)
Thanks for pointing this out Emery!
If you’re white and don’t know if you should vote for Joe Biden, then you ain’t a white supremacist.
Consistency and Ethics — so difficult to have a backbone if you got neither.
When people show you who they are, you should believe them.
When people show you who they are, you should believe them.
Sage advice from a threadjacking plagiarist.
There is only one political party in the US that believes that legal rights should be different for different races, ethnicities, and sexes.
That party is the Democrats. That party has ALWAYS been the Democrats.
They are proud of their racism, they are open about their racist and sexist appeals for votes.

Emery-just for fun please show proof of your “white supremacist” assertion. I wish you good luck-but it’s funny that you immediately go to the same dodge used by “climate change” alarmists when they lack proof (“we’re all gonna die in12 years!” isn’t proof) there’s really no need for debate…”. There always is…
But to believe in equality before the law is white supremacy, according to the Left.
For nearly 200 years, the Democrats have waged war on the concept of equality before the law. They want very badly to have your race taken into account in every single aspect of your life, from where you work, to your medical care, to who you marry and how you school your children.
From birth to death.
