Richard Spencer, neo-Nazi, white supremacist, and organizer of the infamous 2017 Charlottesville riots, announced yesterday on Twitter that he will be voting for Joe Biden in the upcoming 2020 election.
A Twitter user asked Spencer if he will be voting for Biden or sitting out the election, given his belief that "Biden/Kamala will be tougher on crime/BLM than Trump." Spencer responded, "I plan to vote for Biden and a straight democratic ticket. It's not based on 'accelerationism' or anything like that; the liberals are clearly more competent people." Although Spencer claims that his endorsement is about competence and not ideology, his comments from the 2017 Charlottesville riots say otherwise.
Trump has maintained firmly pro-life policies during his presidency and is actually the first sitting president in U.S. history to speak at the annual "March for Life" in Washington, D.C. Since he kicked off his presidential campaign, Biden has made various racist comments.
His own running mate even accused Biden of supporting racist policies when she viciously attacked him on the debate stage in prime time.
Last year, Joe Biden told the Asian & Latino Coalition in Des Moines, Iowa, that "Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids." In an interview with The Breakfast Club Biden said "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're voting for me or Trump, then you ain't black." Despite Biden's comments, it is President Donald Trump who has been dubbed a racist by his opponents and their allies in the corporate media.
"Excuse me, excuse me," said the president, "They didn't put themselves - and you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name." Biden wasted no time after he announced his candidacy for president, jumping on the false reporting conjured by the media.
If the corporate media didn't memory-hole Biden's history of racist comments and the links between abortion and white nationalist goals, it might not come as such a shock.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
Elections have consequences, so it is important that voters who want to save our democracy, should v
