Did you vote for Donald Trump in the 2020 election? If so, then your vote is the equivalent of murdering millions of Jews, according to a professor in Massachusetts.
Loretta J. Ross is a Visiting Associate Professor of the Study of Women & Gender at Smith College, a private liberal arts women’s college in Northampton Massachusetts made her case in a piece she wrote for CounterPunch, a liberal magazine that covers politics in a manner its editors describe as “muckraking with a radical attitude” In other words, the rag would be classified as “hate speech” and banned from Twitter if conservatives wrote it.
Have a look at the cute graphic that accompanies Professor Ross’s article:

Anyway, Loretta J. Ross says Trump supporters are WORSE than Nazi’s.
In her piece, Ross notes that “after World War II, the Nazis who helped Hitler rise to power and murder millions of people” used “violence” and violent rhetoric to further their agenda.
“Power through violence was the only language they spoke—not justice, not freedom—and they were held accountable.”
Gee, that kinda sounds like the rioters who looted and burned our cities last summer, doesn’t it. Except for the “held accountable” part.
What qualifications does Professor Ross have to speak with such intellectual authority on the similarities of Trump supporters and Nazis?
I know this because I teach a course on White Supremacy at Smith College that focuses on anti-Semitism, anti-Black racism, and the many intersecting components of white supremacist ideology. After more than 30 years of organizing and teaching about fascism as a Black feminist activist and academic, I know the destructive influence of these noxious ideas, and I teach young people how to interpret and resist them.
Simply put: Interpreting what she sees and hears through the lens of White supremacy is Ross’s specialty. It’s her jam!
The Republicans are a morally bankrupt political party that supported a deranged president who brought this fragile, evolving democracy to the brink of extinction simply because they can’t stand the glacially slow and righteous empowerment of people of color and any limits on their power to amass an immoral amount of wealth.”
Interesting take considering Black and Hispanic unemployment dropped to all-time lows during the Trump administration.
Republicans are no longer entitled to exist as a legitimate political party because this authoritarian backlash has been building since new Civil Rights laws were passed in 1964 and 1965…
Fun Fact: Greater percentages of Republicans supported the Civil Rights acts of 1964 and 1965 than did Democrats.
The term “Nazi” is not even strong enough to convey the opprobrium and disgust human rights activists feel for those who brazenly claim they are simply patriots with different opinions.
Yes, “Nazi” is too soft a word. I wonder if more than a decade of liberals casually using that term to label everyone and everything they disagree with might have something to do with “Nazi” losing its “punch.”
As philosopher Karl Popper observed in 1945, “In order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance.”
Ironic words coming from a woman labeling every conservative American in the country a “super Nazi.”
We should call them all American Nazis and prevent them from hiding behind mealy-mouthed words because they’ve shown us who they are.
Please Note: “Mock n’ Rob” told you prior to the election that conservatives who were voting for Biden to “stop the madness” and “return to normalcy” were lying to themselves.
It’s not about elections or who is in power; it’s about an ideology of hate that seeks to destroy every last shred of the Republic, our constitution, and our rights and privileges as Americans.
Well done, Republican turncoats!
