Less than two weeks after speaking at a conference organized by white nationalist Nick Fuentes, Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) tweeted a meme on Monday that referenced Fuentes’ motto.
Even Gosar’s family has disowned him! That might be a hint and a half that you’d better change your ways, but white nationalists don’t embrace morality, ethics or decency. This guy should be exposed at every turn.
This man is completely stupid, clueless or just doesn’t give a damn. MAYBE all three but…he goes to a White Nationalist event, disavows White Nationalism, keeps talking and then ‘tweets’ this. His family tried to warn us…
Oh, you never want to go full White Nationalist. If you can’t keep that kind of perverted view of America from suggesting itself, it’s best to say nothing about it. Gosar must be a very lonely, old man.
Gosar is one of the despicable right wing jerks that inhabits and represents parts of Arizona (thankfully not mine!). As mentioned, even his family has spoken up and rejected him. And sadly, there are a bunch more where he came from. They’re doing a lot of damage in the state legislature this year attacking public education, among other things.
This type of thing is only harmful if you are part of a group that rejects that philosophy. The GOP isn’t going to reject it, because it speaks to the deepest part of what is left of their souls.
What is with that meme? Is the world our prostitute? Are prostitutes the messengers of choice of Nazis? Are all patriots johns? Do you have to be a Nazi to understand it? So confused.
I’ve asked this before and I’ll ask it again: Why is literally every prominent white supremacist a perfect example of the opposite?
To a person they’re so stupid, ignorant, vile, and, often, quite insane or otherwise not all there. I suspect that white supremacy, like every culture of grievance, is a particular artifact of certain kinds of mental defect or illness.
Gosar’s “hood” is central downtown Phoenix. I live 120 miles south of that. He is an extremist and a lot of Arizona is just as extreme, sad to say. But a lot of the state is not like that as the recent election showed. 2 democrat senators! My Congresscritter is a democrat as well (Ann Kirkpatrick) and AZ has a a good set of democrat Rep’s. Change is coming slowly.
Gosar is just weird.
I really wish this was the standard way of talking about him.
“Rep. Gosar (R-AZ), who has been disowned by his family over his racism and rejection of basic humanity, released a statement today on H.R.1 calling it, ‘A very bad bill that threatened to treat black and brown people like they are white.’ News at 11”
Being stupid, clueless or just doesn’t give a damn may not explain it at all. While difficult for decent people to confess, there are actual evil people who walk the earth, even close to us. He could be just plain evil, his actions and words certainly are that.
