Late Nite FDL: Feeding the Hand that Bites You

Posted in: Blogosphere, Random Wingnuttery, Snark

bad dogSo, I don’t know about you guys, but I was wondering how long, exactly, it would take for American Right Wingers to realize how much they have in common with real, live fascists, rather than the “Islamo-Fascists” they made up and built a cottage industry around. Self-awareness has never been the strong suit of the Right, whether it’s Dinesh D’Lusional waxing on about how maybe the terrorists who attacked the US on 9/11 have a point when it comes to gays and feminists or whether it’s David Horowitz, a college professor who is mounting a national tour of universities and colleges to explain to the world how higher learning is bad and is warping our children by teaching them to think critically and analytically instead of jumping on a chair and squealing like frightened schoolgirls every time they spot a woman in a hijab.

As part of Horowitz’s week-long nationwide orgy of racism, religious hatred, and scare-mongering, the Young America’s Foundation invited controversial British National Party hack Nick Griffin to speak on the campus at Michigan State University. Griffin is sort of an English Tom Tancredo who wholeheartedly believes that white people are genetically superior to other races:

At Michigan State University Friday, Nick Griffin, the leader of the British National Party who was convicted in 1998 for incitement of racial hatred over material denying the Holocaust, was brought to campus for a speech denouncing Islam. Griffin acknowledges having been a Holocaust denier, but says he no longer is one. His party is on record opposing black-white marriages, believing that black people are less intelligent than white people, and saying that ethnic minorities should be limited to 2-3 percent of the population of any given area in Britain.

“Professional” anti-Islamist and reality denier Charles Johnson of Little Green Footballs thinks that maybe the Young America’s Foundation (which is actually a front group for the far, far right Young Americans for Freedom) has gone a bridge too far:

In the boneheaded move of the year, conservative student group Young Americans for Freedom invited British National Party (BNP) leader Nick Griffin, a flat-out racist and Holocaust denier, to speak about the dangers of Islam at Michigan State University: Protesters shout down anti-Islam speaker at MSU.

It’s not clear from the article whether this was part of Islamofascism Awareness Week or not, but if it was, the Young Americans for Freedom have just handed the enemy a huge gift on a platter, tied up with a lovely white supremacist bow.

That’s right, kids. Li’l Chuckie Greenballs doesn’t think it’s necessarily cricket to wear your Klan robes over your three piece suit. You’ve got to keep that shit on the down-low or “The Enemy” (That’s us, kids! Yay!) will start making the connections and realize that all the Right’s bowing and scraping to “Uh-Merika” and “Free-dum” are really public service announcements for the racist fringe.

That got Young America’s Foundation leader Kyle Bristow into something of a snit and provoked him to state the following about one of the cornerstones of Right Wing Islamophobia and race hate, Little Green Footballs:

MSU-YAF Denounces Little Green Footballs for Being Prissy RINOs

The Little Green Footballs blog decided to condemn MSU-YAF for hosting Nick Griffin. In case you do not read Little Green Footballs, the blog is pro-Muslim, left-wing, politically correct, and basically a front for neoconservative foreign policy (instead of defending their culture, they want to build schools in the Anbar province). They are basically a puppet of the multiculturalists and believe that Islam is not the enemy of Western civilization and Christendom. Only Bush-bots read the Little Green Footballs blog.

Them’s fightin’ words, pilgrim. Next thing you know, you’ll be accusing Johnson of being in bed with al Qaeda.

LGF and Al Qaeda both have something in common: they hate Western civilization and those who stand up for it.

Um…BWA-HA-HAAAAAAA!!!

Ahem.

I’m trying to figure out what would be an appropriate, “Welcome the America-Hatin’ Neighborhood” gift for Charles, here. A makeover? (He sure needs it, seeing as how he dresses like a Halloween costume of a vicious hangover…in 1977.) A Google Map of directions to Michelle Malkin’s house and the license plate numbers of her family vehicles? A basket of gourmet items from France? Help me out, guys.

Of course, I think the real reason that the white supremacist crowd now hates LGF so much is because of the shame Johnson and his fellow travelers are bringing on the White Race every day. Seriously, one look at LGF’s comment threads provides more than ample evidence that white people aren’t genetically or intellectually superior to a stack of ice trays, much less whole other races.

Ergo, they must be stopped.
