Witzke hit!

[quote]Wells Fargo, one of the largest retail banks in the
United States, has shut down the bank account of Lauren Witzke,
who ran as the Republican party candidate for U.S. Senate in the
state of Delaware last year.[/quote]
This will merely slow her down, though. Ultimately there is only
one way to stop her permanently:

About Witzke:
HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lauren_Witzke_(politician)
[quote]Witzke is open about her far-right politics and has
recommended that people read Pat Buchanan’s 2001 book The Death
of the West to understand her political philosophy. In the book,
Buchanan argues that, due to high rates of immigration, the
United States has a "nation within a nation". Witzke has
appeared on VDARE, a website linked to white supremacy and
anti-immigration
...
In October 2020, Witzke defended the far-right organization the
Proud Boys and said at one point that the Proud Boys exemplified
"patriotic masculinity"
...
Witzke has supported a complete ban on all immigration to the
United States for ten years.[16][13][/quote]

[quote]An edited compilation of several videos that was posted
on TikTok last week appears to show the singer mouthing an Asian
racial slur used in Tyler the Creator’s 2011 song “Fish” and
imitating various accents. As the video spread on social media,
Eilish’s fans have been commenting on her accounts, asking her
to make a statement.
...
“There’s a video edit going around of me when I was 13 or 14
where I mouthed a word from a song that at the time I didn’t
know was a derogatory term used against members of the Asian
community,"[/quote]
Really?
HTML https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202106/1226702.shtml
[quote]"Who doesn't know the C-word is a term that targets
people of Chinese descent? And her mocking of Asian people's
accent sounds very much like to me that she was mocking people
speaking Cantonese," posted a netizen on Sina Weibo. [/quote]
Back to first link:
[quote]“I am appalled and embarrassed and want to barf that I
ever mouthed along to that word. This song was the only time I’d
ever heard that word as it was never used around me by anyone in
my family. Regardless of my ignorance and age at the time,
nothing excuses the fact is that it was hurtful. And for that I
am sorry.”[/quote]
Cut out your tongue, swallow it and barf it back out and we
might believe you are sorry.
Until then, back to second link:
[quote]Some angry Chinese netizens proposed that Eilish be added
to the list of "stigma celebrities" in China, saying that such
stars deserve to be banned in the country and boycotted by
Chinese music fans so they lose out on the market. Other
well-known figure on the "stigma" list is Stefano Gabbana, the
designer of the international brand D&G, which seems to have
lost the hearts of Chinese consumers' due to a previous racist
advertisement.[/quote]
BOYCOTT EILISH!

What took Twitter so long?
HTML https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackbrewster/2021/07/09/twitter-bans-white-nationalist-leader-nick-fuentes-ally-of-arizona-republican-rep-gosar/
[quote]Nick Fuentes, the 22-year-old leader of a white
nationalist group who was embraced by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.),
was suspended by Twitter on Friday, one of the last platforms
that had yet to banish the far-right rising star.[/quote]
Which is not to say this will stop Fuentes. In his own words:
[quote]Fuentes suggested killing legislators who refused to vote
to overturn the 2020 election, before walking the idea back.
“What can you and I do to a state legislator — besides kill
them?” he said on his livestream. “We should not do that. I'm
not advising that, but I mean, what else can you do,
right?”[/quote]
This applies to no less to Fuentes himself. So long as he
remains alive, he remains a threat.

Well done Pacific Hills!
HTML https://www.yahoo.com/news/california-hotel-booted-america-first-162232518.html
[quote]A hotel in Laguna Hills, California, canceled a July 17
event after it realized it was hosted by GOP Reps. Matt Gaetz
and Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Orange County Register reported.
The staff at the Pacific Hills Banquet & Event Center on Moulton
Parkway believed they were hosting a "gathering," Javad
Mirtavoosi, the hotel's general manager, told the Orange County
Register. Instead, they were hosting one of Gaetz and Greene's
"America First" rallies, according to the report.
"As soon as we found out who the speakers were we immediately
canceled it," Mirtavoosi told the outlet. The manager declined
to tell the outlet whether political differences were
responsible for the venue canceling the event.[/quote]

Good riddance!

[quote]A Greek sports commentator has been fired for making a
racist comment on-air about South Korean table tennis players.
When asked about the skill of South Korean table tennis players
in general, commentator Dimosthenis Karmiris said: "Their eyes
are narrow, so I can't understand how they can see the ball
moving back and forth."[/quote]
In reality, Karmiris' own eyes are narrower than those of the
player he was commentating about:

Well done Delta!
HTML https://www.yahoo.com/news/18-us-orthodox-jewish-girls-161146178.html
[quote]Eighteen Orthodox Jewish girls were barred from a
Delta-KLM flight from Amsterdam to New York on Friday because of
a dispute about COVID-19 protocols, according to The Jerusalem
Post.
The girls were part of a group of about 55 Jewish teenagers who
had spent two weeks visiting religious sites in Kyiv, Ukraine,
their rabbi told Fox News.
During the first leg of their journey - a Delta-operated flight,
in partnership with KLM, from Kyiv to Amsterdam - flight
attendants reportedly disciplined the girls for failing to
comply with coronavirus safety measures.
The passengers breached the protocols by taking their masks off
to eat their own food outside of the designated mealtimes, The
Jerusalem Post reported.[/quote]

Since passengers are allowed to take their masks off during
"designated mealtimes" (i.e. when they are paying Delta for
food) I don't think Delta really cares about public safety, and
that this is merely a PR move on their part. This shows that
Orthodox Jews aren't the only problem...

If you don't like Delta's mask policy, you can also not give
your custom to them! That's the whole point!

A sequel!

[quote]A group of Orthodox Jewish girls who were barred from
boarding a flight from Amsterdam to New York on Thursday evening
was kicked off another flight the next day, according to their
rabbi.
The 18 teenagers, part of a group who had been visiting
religious sites in Ukraine, were initially disallowed from
traveling on a flight home due to a dispute over COVID-19
protocols on the KLM-operated leg of their journey from Kyiv to
Amsterdam, Insider previously reported.
A day later, Delta Air Lines allegedly kicked off the same girls
for swapping seats on a Friday morning flight, Rabbi Yisroel
Kahan claimed in an interview with Insider.[/quote]
