Liberal Hate Speech

From Conservapedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Liberal hate speech is hate speech employed by liberals - "widely provocative speech to denigrate a legally protected class or group of citizens defined by legislation"[1]. It is surprising considering liberal support of affirmative action and political correctness, but indicates that true tolerance does not necessarily follow from these tenets.

Liberal hate speech against persons with disabilities

KURTZ: O'Reilly also criticized you for making a joke about Charlton Heston, the former NRA chief, having Alzheimer's.
CLOONEY: Yes.
KURTZ: Was that in poor taste in retrospect?
CLOONEY: Yes, oh, yes. It was in poor taste. It was a funny joke. It was in a room of 100 people. Yeah, (UNINTELLIGIBLE). I have a lot of good friends who -- in fact, I have a very good friend who is dying of Alzheimer's. And it was just a funny joke. [2]


Liberal hate speech against African-Americans

  • Colin Powell is a respected and popular Statesman who rejected offers to be drafted for President in 1996. In an interview, liberal activist Harry Belafonte, who is also African-American, stated, "there are those slaves who lived on the plantation, and there were those slaves who lived in the house. You got the privilege of living in the house if you served the master to exactly the way the master intended to have you serve him. That gave you privilege. Colin Powell is permitted to come into the house of the master, as long as he will serve the master according to the master's dictates." [3]
  • Former Vermont Governor and current DNC chairman, Howard Dean joked during a speech, “You think the Republican National Committee could get this many people of color in a single room? Only if they had the hotel staff in here.” [4]

Liberal hate speech against Hispanics

  • Alberto Gonzales. The first Hispanic U.S. Attorney General, was consistently mocked on liberal websites as 'Alberto "Speedy" Gonzales' [5] during his tenure. Speedy Gonzales is a reference to a disparaging stereotypical cartoon character of Hispanics that Hollywood attempted to popularize in the 1950s and 60s. Upon his retirement, NBC News anchor Matt Lauer called Gonzales "a piñata" for the Democrats. [2]

Liberal hate speech against Jews

  • Rev. Jesse Jackson said on Jaunary 25, 1984, "all Hymie wants to talk about, is Israel; every time you go to Hymietown, that's all they want to talk about." [6]
  • Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan said "Casey was killed for lies and for a PNAC Neo-Con [7] agenda to benefit Israel", [8] accusing members of a vast right-wing Jewish conspiracy of being responsible for her sons death to benefit Israel.
  • Richard Dawkins claimed that Jews "more or less monopolize American foreign policy." His comments have been criticized by the Anti-Defamation League as "classic Anti-Semitism."[9]


Liberal hate speech against people of faith

  • Richard Dawkins in his 2006 book The God Delusion, states fundamentalist religion "saps the intellect,"[13] and refers to belief in God as a "mind-virus."[14]
