Where does freedom of speech mean I have to employ you? GD you frickers are retarded.


When much of your business and brand is about the freedom to engage in discussion freely, firing someone over things they say is completely hypocritical. Although I don't think that's what happened here.

Also it's grotesquely unamerican to fire an employee over things they say if it's not harassment or subordinate.

BTW why is it everyone knows what antisemite is but not Christophobia? Is it because one group screams it every time someone says something mean about them to shut people up?



It's 2024. You need to catch up.

"Narcissism/narcissist" - anyone who does anything I don't like, holds me accountable, and doesn't let me run all over them

"Trauma" - anything unpleasant that happens to me at any point in time, regardless of its actual significance

"Model" - take pictures of myself and post them on social media

"Entrepreneur/Founder/CEO" - I formed an LLC that purportedly sells swimwear/clothing, so any trip I take is a business/marketing expense as long as I take a photograph while I'm there and post it on social media (see "model" above)

"Anti-Semitism" - any criticism whatsoever of anyone who can claim they're Jewish in any way (ethnicity/religion, etc.), regardless of whether the criticism is even related to their Jewishness


Nothing is real. Everything is bullshite.

bullshite.


Let’s review some of Candace’s history:

Accused Israel of genocide (Which is objectively retarded even if you don’t like the war)

When thousands of Muslim extermists were marching in support of Hamas her response was “People are waking up to the lies of the media”

Proclaimed the Jews forced Muslims to live in the Muslim Quarter in Jerusalem

This doesn’t even get into her Kanye bullshite


The idea Candace simply “Didn’t want American dollars in the war” is utter nonsense. As I’ve stated before she’s either an anti-Semite or just an idiot. Jury is still out

Conservative inc. grifter leaving conservative inc. news media?

Ben has some good takes, but he also doesn’t understand working class folks. It’s hard listening to him.

Yes, being anti a race of people is totally a Christian point of view

Jews are a race?

They are classified officially as a race? I guess I missed Jews as a race on the US census.

Lenny Kravitz is a Jew. What race is he?

Drake is a Jew. What is his race?

This isn't a free speech matter.

Candace bit off more than she could chew.

She didn't show any level of contrition or consideration for her words.


She was wrong, didn't come correct, and has now found out.


Don't see why this is such a big deal.

IDC that she was fired. She irritates me a lot. She went after Kim Klacik while Kim was in the middle of trying to flip a Dem seat in MD because Candace hated seeing another black female conservative gaining national recognition.

That being said, I still find it odd that this is what she was let go for out of all the crap she has said and done.

I have no doubt any criticism of Israel by any of the DW staff would result in the same actions.

It is a racial ethnicity.
And in a different context, it is a people of a religion.

This isn't rocket science.
Words can mean multiple things.

Welcome to the English language.

She had been critical of Israel for months, and she was sharing their platform.

The obvious point is that the Daily Wire didn't make any rash decision to fire her. They continued to provide her a space for her content regardless of her opinions. She was in conflict with many even before October 7th.

It sounds like a contract was up (or near up). And they mutually agreed to part ways (or mutually agreed that there would be no additional year and parted just before the contract expired). That is the only explanation I can have for the timing.

Longstanding grudges and opinions, real or imagined, popping out immediately after 10-7 and then claiming 'muh free speech' are nothing but intentional smoke screens imo.

This whole business of drinking the blood of Chrisitan babies, which is a comment SHE 'liked' is insanity. I simply don't get it.

You lie about someone than then they retaliate about that lie, of course you're getting due blowback. That's not a conspiracy.

No.

FYI the majority of US Jews are white.

Oh, so they get to be both?

Weird. Why is it no other group on earth gets this benefit?

Is it possibly so they can play perpetual victims and claim racism and antisemitism?

I am not getting into the argument today as I have done so many times already on here but Jews aren't a race. Nowhere in the world are they officially recognized as such.

Lol

Your evidence that jews are not a racial ethnicity is based on the jews who claim a religious heritage in America?

Ok. Reread my post. Words can have more than one meaning, Webster.

Jew is a word.
Not a "they".

There are jews by ethnicity.
And jews by religion.
And you are proving a point that stupid Americans can't comprehend that most of the words in Websters dictionary carry multiple meanings and usages.

As I said, welcome to the English language.

You struggle with a lot of things. The English language. Avoiding arguments.

Jews are most definitely a race.
We kind of fought a world war over racial cleansing.
There are thousands of hateful parodies and cartoons depicting ethnic characteristics of the jews.
The entire premise of Aliyah is Jews returning to Israel.
"Nowhere in the world" excludes common places like Germany and Jerusalem.

Acadian French is considered an ethnic group. That doesn't make Cajuns an race

Link me to anywhere in the world where Jews are classified as a separate race of people and quit using ethnic groups to make your point as that doesn't mean anything in the context of whether they are a separate race or not.

They aren’t. Until they are. It’s all about convenience and flexibility for that particular group.

So you are inferring that racial cleansing has multiple meanings also (i.e. ethnic?)
