There is no denying that white supremacy is an engine of the right.
There are some Republican voters who are sympathetic to their party’s ultranationalist turnand don’t believe the party’s attitudes toward issues such as immigration and crime are the products of racial animus. But over and over again, right-wing leaders and thinkers reveal that white supremacism is an engine of this movement.
The latest example comes via an episode of “The Tucker Carlson Show” released this week, in which the former Fox News host interviews podcast host and newsletter writer Darryl Cooper. Carlson, arguably the most influential right-wing nationalist commentator in America, said Cooper “may be the best and most honest popular historian in the United States.” But Cooper has made clear that his intellectual project regarding World War II includes Holocaust revisionism.
A holocaust/genocide studies professor once told me there were two categories of holocaust deniers, and while the former were fools, the latter truly scared him:
“It didn’t happen.”
“It wasn’t a holocaust because they didn’t finish the job.”
This is veering into #2 territory when you view these deaths as some sort of portion that had “overcrowding.”
#2 is what defenders of Israel are saying today too
Don’t know why you’re being down voted. “It can’t be a genocide there are still Palestinians living in Gaza” is literally a line being used by commenters.
They’re the ones down voting it
I guess all the downvotes on your comment with no one offering another explanation is probably proof you’re right.
Probably because it’s not actually a common talking point.
Sorry just realized I replied a comment level up from what I meant to.
