When people get outraged over the Twitter CEO eating at Chick-Fil-A, how is it that Farrakhan hasn't been kicked off the platform already!?!?!!?

https://www.thewrap.com/louis-farrakhan-loses-twitter-verification-satanic-jew-tweet/

Louis Farrakhan is no longer verified on Twitter.

Sometime over the weekend, the social-media giant quietly removed the Nation of Islam chief’s blue-check verification. The decision came shortly after a clip posted of Farrakhan warning about “the Satanic Jew.”

“Thoroughly and completely unmasking the Satanic Jew and the Synagogue of Satan,” the minister tweeted, along with a video of a recent sermon expounding on the same theme.

The comments weren’t new for Farrakhan, who routinely spouts content widely condemned as anti-Semitic.

With each new example, critics have argued that Farrakhan’s blue-check verification should be revoked, especially after the company announced its intention to deny status to individuals peddling hate speech.

“Verification has long been perceived as an endorsement. We gave verified accounts visual prominence on the service which deepened this perception,” said Twitter at the time. “This perception became worse when we opened up verification for public submissions and verified people who we in no way endorse.”

Last November, the company revoked several verification checks from far-right and white nationalist accounts including Richard Spencer, Laura Loomer, Tim Gionet and Charlottesville, Virginia march organizer Jason Kessler.

Many accused Twitter of disproportionately targeting right-wing hate while allowing left-wing extremists, like Farrakhan, to continue without consequence.

When the hell did Farrakhan become "left wing"? Is that like Hitler was a socialist? Last I heard he practiced/promoted some weird version of Islam.

Oh, almost forgot. I'm concerned.

He's only "left wing" because the right doesn't agree with his version of conservative authoritarian. Standard for us or against us mentality

He's a bigoted d-bag.

Farrakhan is just another sad individual rather than as they grow older they become wiser and benevolent they become more pissed off at everything and radicalized. He has to whip his base up so he can pay his rent.

Also as the article itself points out this is hardly new with him, so why is it news?Guess the Wrap is trying to whip up its own base.

I didn't know Farrakhan was still alive.

What sort of idiot puts "Obama" and "Farrakhan" in the same sentence?
Probable the same that puts Farrakhan in the same sentence as "left" or "democrats".

Seriously.

It's pretty much expected that you will get the morons who align people based "Well...since he's black. then he must be in cahoots with that other black. That's what blacks do.."
Then you will get the pre-dementia jerkoffs who will rehash whatever talking point the find off of whatever retard looney site.

I can't even...

Just for fun, Idug up some news stories about Farrakhan between 2007 and 2016.
Came across this beauty.

Speaking at the black nationalist organization's annual Savior's Day in Chicago, Farrakhan told parishioners that he admires Trump because he believes the celebrity billionaire's purportedly self-funded presidential campaign isn't taking money from the "Jewish community."

"[Trump] is the only member who has stood in front of [the] Jewish community and said, 'I don't want your money,'" Farrakhan told his followers Sunday at the Mosque Maryam in Chicago, according to the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights organization.

"Anytime a man can say to those who control the politics of America, 'I don't want your money,' that means you can't control me. And they cannot afford to give up control of the presidents of the United States." Farrakhan said in the sermon. Though he said he admires Trump's independence, the 82-year-old leader stopped short of endorsing the first-time novice politician for president.

"Not that I'm for Mr. Trump," he said, "but I like what I'm looking at."

It's fun because its an Article with Trump and Farrakhan in the same paragraph therefore based on internet rules they are deeply in love.
Also based on internet rules, due to Trump + Farrakhan love + rant about Jews....therefore Trump hates Jews.

All that's left is to send out a mass email to foxnews subscribers.

All kidding aside, people need to realize that Farrakhan is the equivalent of Pat Robertson and other crazy evangelist with the additional bonus of him being old and irrelevant.

The response to anything coming out of that guys mouth should always be "He's still alive?"
The membership numbers of the Nation of Islam is the equivalent of a clerical error.

But he is black and Muslim therefore he speaks for all blacks and all Muslims.

Also because he is black he must be a liberal and a Democrat so he speaks for those groups as well.

You guys are reaching. LF hasn't been relevant in 25 years.

Trump hiring a "Jew" hater to work in the White House as his chief advisor is more up to date.
