GOP Mayoral Candidate Says She Won't 'Discriminate' Against White Supremacists
Active Clubs are quickly expanding their presence in the United States, and one such group is wreaking havoc in a Tennessee mayoral race
If you need catching up, this is the lady who is running for mayor of Franklin, TN, who was escorted and "protected" by members of a white supremacist group (essentially actual Nazis).
Pertinent excerpts from the article:
Tuesday night, members of the board took Hanson to task in person, accusing her of sowing division and endangering the community. Hanson refused to condemn the group. “This is the old adage of ‘you reap what you sow,’” Hanson told the board, claiming the Active Club was in Franklin partially as a result of alleged discrimination against Christians. “You’ve planted seeds for years and years against our citizens, and they are coming to harvest, this is what the citizens of Franklin are getting because of bad decisions.”
Hanson claimed that the Tennessee Active Club came to Franklin because they were an “anti-antifa group” [so, fascists] and “the dark web is showing massive antifa activity” in and around the city. At one point on Tuesday, Hanson referred to Brad Lewis, the “actual literal Nazi,” as her “client.”
Brad Lewis owns and operates a store in Nashville, and said of himself, "I'm an actual literal Nazi."
“I’m a realtor, I’m not going to denounce anybody their right to be whatever it is that they want to be, whether I agree with what they do in their personal life or not,” she said, adding that “we don’t discriminate in this community” and that the Active Club “never laid a hand on anyone and they were very respectful while they were here.”
It makes people feel important and powerful when they are backed by thugs.
I dunno, endorsing Nazis feels like you're trying to discriminate in this community.
Oh well, if she's a realtor, I guess she couldn't possibly also be a nazi. So glad she cleared that up.
It's useless to cite Karl Popper to centrists, they are just rightoids who don't have the courage to admit this simple fact to themselves first and to the world at large second.
Just like most Nazi are closeted homosexuals who cannot understand their natural urges and act against them for some bullshit reason
The entire concept of the “Paradox of Tolerance” presupposes that tolerance is a universal good, or that it’s claimed to be such, neither of which is true.
So then non whites should be able to use self defense against her. Problem solved.
The irony in that statement could walk up and punch her in her Nazi face.
Same as not discriminating against any other terrorist.
"Those are my constituents!"
The UK has recently been on roll of making rulings where people have been assumed to have been discriminated against for being "gender critical" or "opposed to critical race theory". The equality act has essentially been nullified in practice.
And the TERFs immediately started threatening every trans person and ally who wouldn't service them with lawsuits for breaching the Equality Act.
All the "free speech" warriors of course defend them, decrying "cancel culture", but are oddly silent when the same TERFs file SLAPP lawsuits against people criticising them.
Pro tip: when Nazis complain that they're the victim of discrimination, they're demanding the protections of a peace they refuse to abide by- and they shouldn't get them.
Is that what she said? Did she use the term white supremacists? I kind of doubt it, given there’s no quote marks around the term in the title.
