Unconscionable.
@deborahlipstadt is an utter disgrace. She is pimping the Holocaust to advance her progressive agenda. It's almost unbelievable. In a sane world, she would be fired and banished from academic circles for this. https://t.co/Y6GUtV8wF8

WaPo Columnists receive backlash for comparing ‘Trump’s democracy denial’ to ‘Holocaust denial’
By Saracarter.com, December 30, 2020
Deborah E. Lipstadt, a Holocaust historian, and Norman Eisen, a child of a Holocaust survivor, wrote a joint op-ed in the Washington Post last Wednesday equating President Donald Trump’s claims that the 2020 election “was stolen” to Holocaust denial.
The two columnists wrote that “As students of history, we do not make this comparison lightly: No lie could be as bad as denying the reality of a genocide. But democracy denial is bad enough.”
The President’s “democracy denial,” they added, has “an unmistakable racial tinge” because his claims focus on “particular cities with large Black populations — Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, Atlanta.”
Nathan Lewin, a criminal defense attorney who has taught at Georgetown, Harvard, University of Chicago, George Washington University and Columbia law, criticized Lipstadt and Eisen’s piece in Israel’s Arutz Sheva Tuesday as both “reprehensible and revolting.”
In his op-ed, Lewin, who is Jewish and is open about his admiration for Trump for his continued success in creating Middle East peace, but is also “appalled by his extravagant narcissism and capriciousness,” writes that Lipstadt is renowned for standing up to Holocaust deniers, pointing to when she was sued in England 20-years ago and won her case against a Holocaust denier.
Eisen, Lewin also recognizes, for his expertise in legal ethics and his background as the son of an Auschwitz survivor. Lewin also points to the fact that Eisen was former President Barack Obama’s classmate in law school and later served in his administration as U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic.
“Touting their Jewish credentials and Holocaust expertise and experience, Lipstadt and Eisen opine that contesting the results of the presidential election parallels Holocaust denial,” Lewin writes.

It’s both sad and amusing when “educated” people talk. In reality they are talking to a blank wall and no one cares what they “think” or say.

This seething rancorous hatred from the left for Trump and conservatives is now so extreme that the frothing madness the left is inflicted with has pushed all of them over the edge into insanity whether it’s in Europe, the UK or America.
They cannot escape the hate they’ve created inside their own heads, it’s rotting what’s left of their cognitive reason, so they twist and turn like snarling rabid dogs tethered but still insane and dangerous.
It’s now so bad in them that most deserve to be placed in straight jackets and confined somewhere.

Just more leftist exploitation of the Holocaust for cheap political points. Keep buying from Amazon and you’ll get more of this closeted anti-semitism. Amazon head Bezos, King of the Leftys, owns the Washington Post.
STOP THE WHINE. INSTEAD BOYCOTT AMAZON.

Leave it to the Left to denigrate the unique horror that was the Holocaust. A war against the Jewish people specifically by the Nazis and their collaborators all across Europe and the world. This was a targeted war of unprecedented proportion to exterminate a singular people for the very crime of being born a Jew.
Any comparisons made to that singular inexplicable and horrendous stain on humanity is simply and utterly reprehensible. The very comparison is a stain on humanity.
The Left attempts to hide its crimes against humanity through deflection, censorship and repression. Their despicable lies are all flagrantly exposed for all to see. Malevolent individuals with evil intent.

WaPo now has 1000 staff in their newsroom churning out Bezo’s propaganda day and night. Look at Memeorandum and so many stories are generated by the WaPo propagandists.

The media and China:
“The National Pulse is today publishing a full list of news outlets said to have granted the Chinese Communist Party and its propaganda outlets “favorable coverage” or “positive messages” following an investigation into the China-United States Exchange Foundation and ‘BLJ Worldwide’.”

Only someone who finds a similarity between Republican claims and the Holocaust has simply lost any credibility and has become a partisan Nazi apologist. One needs to perform quite an act of logical acrobatics to come to that conclusion. One has entered a world of madness and self-deceit. To be a Leftist is to abandon all reason and logic and embrace an ideology based on emotion and opportunism that desperately uses anything to advance its malevolent agenda.
If anything, the DemoNazis attempt to steal this election through numerous surreptitious, fraudulent means more resembles a Nazi maneuver than anything. Do Lipstadt and Eisen remember the Reichstag fire which was used to seize power by Hitler and the Nazis, or the unending use of their brown shirts to violently harass, and intimidate political opposition as well as Jews? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Being a Leftist means being a following of Doublethink, hence, one can censor thoughts that run contrary to logic, reason and history. Lipstadt would fit right into the Ministry of Truth.
This article is despicable and the writers should be shunned by all civilized peoples. There is no apology that can even make up for this desecration of the Holocaust. Shame on them for spitting on the ashes of the Jewish people.
