Conservative US influencer Candace Owens is barred from New Zealand weeks after a ban from Australia
The ruling came weeks after neighboring Australia also rejected her visa request, citing remarks she made about Jews and Muslims.
The U.S. conservative political commentor Candace Owens was refused a visa to enter New Zealand for a speaking engagement because she had been banned from another country, immigration officials said Thursday.
News of the ruling came weeks after neighboring Australia also rejected her visa request, citing remarks in which she denied Nazi medical experimentation on Jews in concentration camps during World War II.
Owens is scheduled to speak at a series of events in several Australian cities and in Auckland, New Zealand, in February and March next year. Tickets remain on sale and there is no acknowledgement on the promoter’s website that she has been refused entry to both countries.
Banned from two countries for being a neonazi, yet spoke at my uni twice, and protected by cops.
Make it make sense.
America - home of the free to be any kind of piece of shit you can think of.
Australia - throws you in jail for doing Nazi things
Something something sitting at a table with nazis...
Sure other places aren't perfect, but this seems like an easy one to settle. The bill of rights have limits as already established by US courts, why in "defense" of the 1st amendment does the US feel like it has to be a nazi? I can't answer that, I don't ascribe to whatever belief they've got over there.
It's ok to be nazi as long as you support israel.
Can the US reject her trip home?
This is a great way to penalize these far-right grifters. Not only are they prevented from making money on their speaking tour, but they are publicly lambasted and restricted in travel, and there's nothing they can do about it.
If she doesn't have a citizenship in another country it is just this side of not happening that the sates would leave her stateless as the rules currently stand.

Exactly. Anyone being called that is on my ignore list. Call me a Curmudgeon.
Curmudgeon. I aim to please.
Lol, this is so absurd. They will ban the crazy lady but have harbored rupert murdoch as he dismantled democracy across the world. Insane.
Murdoch is an American citizen. Australians like me feel embarrased of his origins, but he's not our problem anymore.
Yeah I guess if you do one good thing the only important thing is all the other good things you didn't do. Great point.
He's Australian isn't he?
New Zealand telling Candace Owens to fuck the fuck off:
Good to see the Kiwi's copying the Aussies when they told Candace to:
Get fucked cunt!
I've been led to believe that's a term of endearment to you people.

It can be, but context is important.
Candace? — More like Can’tdace, amirite?
Black woman conservative why
Makes her rich. She knows racism, as she's had to sue successfully in the past, but it's easier to get money this way. There's this podcast where atheists make fun of bad Religious movies (mostly Christian, with a few Jewish, Hindu, scientology, culty, and just plain weird Woo/conspiracy ones) and they are constantly surprised how bad they are yet still profitable.
They joke about just switching sides for the payout. Some people don't have enough standards to not do so.
Good
That's Future President Candace Owens to you.
So that's a fun question:
Can the right's motivational spite overcome its immense racism?
I don't think so, let alone overcome its misogyny.
I made fun of Trump before he was elected.
I’ll never over estimate US voters again.
Nice let’s go! I was hoping for this!
They will probably Stream the event.. Starting with "the liberal propaganda...." ending with "Sieg heil"
Have there been any left leaning influencers or otherwise banned from major countries? Not that I'd expect the right to understand why there is a disparity there. Just for my own curiosity.
"Major" countries, that's so racist lmao
Funny. You can be a fascist token for a decade and be invited everywhere but say something bad about Israel and all the westoids turn on you.
Holocaust denial is antisemitic, not anti-Israel.
She probably mentioned the fact the west is expiating their own guilt through blind israel support. She got framed.
