The right-wing commentator and frequent Fox News guest Michelle Malkin lost a long-term speaking gig Sunday due in part to her praise of a 21-year-old internet racist.
They want me to disavow Nick Fuentes and VDARE and Peter Brimelow and Faith Goldy and Gavin McInnes and the Proud Boys and Steve King and Laura Loomer and on and on,” Malkin said, naming a laundry list of right-wing provocateurs,
Very good people all
Yep, that’d be a good start for Squawkin’ Malkin.
I ain’t gonna click, but I love how the Rs refuse to participate actively try to thwart any investigation and then wail that it’s not bipartisan as promised.
I have no f’n idea what is driving Malkin to set what little reputation she had left on fire like this, but I think it really demonstrates how much some of these folks are into their own Facebook/media feedback loop, and just cut off from normal information/judgement.
Malkin is a grifter of long standing. She has played herself as the “sexy asian” in right wing circles for years, and made a good living out of it (and the comments you see in response to her on Twitter from her followers suggest she is viewed as a right wing Angelos City girl…, who will make them all feel adequate…). That she would (as I think will happen) toss it all away is really a sign of how out of it some of these folks have become.
But hey, glad she is lining up with the “Groypers” any civil war between the out and out racists and the closet racists on the Right is fine by me…
The right-wing troll world is fractured between the open racists and the closet racists: the “alt-right” and the “alt-light” in their parlance. Because they’re all simply emotionally disturbed creeps, they spend as much time trolling each other as they do provoking the normies, which is what they see as their exalted mission in life.
It’s a toxic world of sewer rats, and I hope bad things happen to each and every one of them.
When the Swift Boat Liars were getting people to question whether John Kerry deserved his Purple Heart, Malkin was alone in floating the idea that he may have shot himself with his own gun to get the award. She’s a nutjob. I didn’t realize she was even still around.
She does realize that she’s not “white,” doesn’t she? Which means these cretins think she’s not worth living except to serve them? She’s a useful idiot to a group of idiots who, given the chance, would turn on her in a second.
I wonder what the real story is. Because if YAF hadn’t noticed the racism during the previous 20 years.
Perhaps it’s about positioning. The open racists are in a position to siphon a lot of money away from the establishment closet racists. (It might be a little bit, ironically, like the conservative-democrat debacle where voters decided they might as well vote for republican-heavy as for republican-lite. So is this the point where the racists decide that only loud, pure racism will do?)
I am not going to go too far down her Rabbit hole but will note her history is very interesting. Her dad came on a sponsored visa from the Philippines to the US, had his med school paid for, and then worked it off at hospital chain (who sponsored him and paid for him). Her dad and mom got US citizenship, and Michelle was born here.
She is put bluntly here because of exactly what she wants to prevent - immigration of brown/black people who have drive and skills and in particular want education.
That said, here relationship with her “followers” is meretricious at it’s core, and she is trafficking on certain assumptions about Asian women to make her $$$$.
Young Americans for Freedom was created in the early sixties by Bill Buckley and his cronies. They exist on most college campuses. Usually rich white college kids who think they know much more about life than they really do.
