Even the Dutch say piss off to Andrew Bolt

They built and invested in The Edge the greenest building ever created. It seems Andrew Bolt is a misfit on both sides of the planet. What's more it's occupied by a multinational firm of economic rationalists Deloittes. Andrew Bolt just seems an all round loser.
If We Truly Want To Stay Safe, We Need To Start Calling Violent White Supremacists 'Terrorists' |
By narrowing the definition of terrorism in his rhetoric, Andrew Bolt is furthering the narrative that the only terrorist threats come from Muslims and alienating other victims of terror in the process.
If members of ISIL's media support are so easily deemed "terrorists". If Melbournians actively supporting ISIL on social media can be arrested for "assisting terror" why is it that ultra white supremacists like Andrew Bolt can't be cautioned if not arrested for inciting acts of terror? Why isn't Andrew Bolt called out for what he in fact is a white supremacist terrorist, a media recruiter encouraging terror for the cause. Lets face it ISIL recruiters on social media aren't all necessarily violent but have earned the label Terrorist.
"Too often the terrorism label is reserved for those thought to be Muslim, while others suspected of equally heinous crimes tend to be deemed ‘mentally ill.’"
How many times have we heard Andrew Bolt say “the white race is being eroded.”by our immigration policies. These are the exact words used and expressed by white supremacists. It's exactly the sentiments of James Harrison Jackson charged with terrorism in New York for killing black men.
"Charging white supremacists like Jackson with terrorism makes the bigger point that terrorists are not only those with brown skin or foreign-sounding names."
These instances, some of which are deadly plots by right-wing extremists, rarely attract headlines and even more rarely do we hear the term terrorism used to describe them. Andrew Bolt is certainly batting on that team.
