when i first saw the screenshot i thought "no way" and found that link when i googled it, so they must have JUST taken it down

Richard Hanania, a man who literally got caught posting on white supremacist forums, is being portrayed as the mainstream "non-bigoted" alternative to fuentes. unreal.
🧵

huge, huge pet peeve of mine is when people argue that centrism is "less ideological" or "less political" as if that's not also a political and ideological choice
🧵

it's the new york times so they can't stop themselves from comparing the overt antisemitism and nazi worship of fuentes with pro-palestinian protests

and of course they need to interview a rabid zionist nationalist about it:

🧵

this anecdote completely undercuts the piece's theory that "the political heirs of his “America First” agenda have tried to form an intellectual framework for their movement that embraces nationalism while keeping overt bigotry out of the coalition."
🧵

some more sanewashing of charlie kirk's beliefs, when he held many very racist and explicitly white supremacist beliefs
🧵

nick fuentes being interviewed by tucker carlson (maybe the most prominent media voice on the right) and having dinner with the president and face of the MAGA movement is somehow still being rejected by conservatism?
🧵

the piece starts with this paragraph, which feels like it comes from a parallel dimension where we aren't rounding up people because they're brown or speak spanish and deporting them for no reason.

like idk, the bigotry feels pretty mask off right now!
