Maoist Mobs and a Railroad fit for a King

I’m trying to get to the bottom of the Steve King-induced hysteria, and it’s not easy.  Don’t we have any journolists who can pull facts together and present them objectively?

Go Yahoogle “Steve King racist statements” and you will be fed a plethora of articles containing characterizations of what he said, and quote snippets shorn of the contextual conversation surrounding it.

The latest comes from the New York Times claiming he lamented the demonization of the terms “white nationalist” and “white supremacist.”  The New York Times is withholding the complete context from us.  Here’s is King’s explanation:

In a 56 minute interview, we discussed the changing use of language in political discourse. We discussed the worn out label “racist” and my observation that other slanderous labels have been increasingly assigned to Conservatives by the Left, who injected into our current political dialog such terms as Nazi, Fascist, ‘White Nationalist, White Supremacist,— Western Civilization, how did THAT language become offensive?

Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?’…just to watch Western Civilization become a derogatory term in political discourse today. Clearly, I was only referencing Western Civilization classes. No one ever sat in a class listening to the merits of white nationalism and white supremacy.

Here are more items in the “Steve King is a Racist” rolodex:

This retweet got him branded an anti-Semite. So I guess anyone quoting Marx, Mao or Gorbachev is a communist…  Go figure…

This Gert Wilders retweet marks king as a dangerous white nationalist…

In 2017, King tweeted that he agreed with far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders that “our civilization” cannot be restored “with somebody else’s babies.”

Yes, The United States has a civilization, and it is ours.  It is distinct from other nations.  It is a beautiful mosaic that was built by and is now enjoyed by people of all races, religions and national origins. We were a melting pot once, where “somebody else” from “somewhere else” became “one of us,” including my mom, her sister and her parents.  If we don’t breed, our culture will die, and other will move in with their own culture and remake the social landscape.  It is not bigoted or hateful to oppose that.

Will the dirty old Muslim men bringing in child brides allow them to assimilate? Are the 20% of the population that do not speak English at home interested in assimilation?

But I digress…

Rep King is guilty of speaking candidly and using politically-incorrect language. People calling him a racist have not made their case.  Most frighteningly, whole herds of educated sheeple are condemning him based upon propaganda and smears. No one has actually formulated a logical argument for the case that Rep. King is a racist.

This is a deliberate tightening of the language, a narrowing of acceptable speech. The left can cheer “old white people” dying off, but no can criticize unregulated immigration or call a shithole a shithole. See how the game is played? The left holds all the weapons and enjoys a free fire zone, while screaming bloody murder any time someone to their right picks up a pea-shooter.

Please read this infamous interview Rep King had with an Austrian news site that once had a Nazi in its management 70 years ago. Here are a few shocking, reprehensible quotes:

Freedom of speech, religion and press, property rights, Judeo-Christian values, all these things that are so important.

hmmm…. a neo-nazi anti-Semite lauding our “Judeo-Christian” values… Don’t hear that too often nowadays.

Look, I can envision generations from now, centuries from now, where everyone eventually starts to look the same, if we get enough intermarriage which is the most effective form of assimilation. […] I don’t see Caucasians to be genetically dominant. Blue eyes and blond hair are recessive. So I envision more and more assimilation, and that’s positive, and one day, we will all look substantially the same.

When asked if he were a civic nationalist or an ethnic nationalist…

I guess “civic” may be able to describe what I am, yes. I’m not an ethnic nationalist. because I look at all these people and I just see the diversity of skin colors.

The article disappoints in its lack of inflammatory racist diatribes, especially since it was a white nationalist neo-nazi bigoted anti-Semite being interviewed by a European nazi website.  You’d think he really would have let his freak flag fly…

So, can someone make a rational, cogent argument that Rep Steve King is a bigot?  Please don’t cite how Republicans have repudiated him. That’s not an argument, and anyway, Republicans are running scared trying to hold up their crapped-full adult diapers.
