A few weeks ago, Batya Ungar-Sargon called out U.S. Senate candidate Graham Platner for his troubling history with women and blatant antisemitism—allegations the left largely ignored. Watch her reflections with Rafaela Siewert:

Graham Platner. Nazi tattoo. Mocked a girl's suicide attempt. Accused of abusing his ex-girlfriend. Antisemitism allegations. The left ignored all of it until it became impossible to ignore. Sargon called it weeks ago. The mainstream media is just catching up now. That is not journalism. That is reputation management. -HG

@bungarsargon @rafaelasie Of course they believe everything about him. He hates Jews, that’s your right of passage to be an elected Democrat candidate in today’s party. “Free Palestine” is the equivalent to the Covid mask, it’s a sure sign you’re an uninformed moron

Seriously? Batya is still a thing at @TheFP? What dirt does she have on you, @bariweiss that you continue to employ this cretin? Had an FP subscription, canceled it because of Batya, won't return until she's out the door.

@bungarsargon @rafaelasie To make people aware, this is a conversation between two Jews, not representative of the population as a whole though they are happy for you to believe they are

He's not an Israel Firster. Is that the heart of the matter. He loves Israel, loves his gentile heritage, thus his wearing of a Swastika, but he could never engage in helping any other nation now as long as we have problems here at home. Such as Austin's new 125 million dollar public library, filled to the brim with homeless people, baggage and all including poor in their hair

@bungarsargon @rafaelasie I find it interesting that the people that are so fine with Palestinian ethnic cleansing and holocaust mimicking behavior by their favorite government, can try and scare Americans into ostracizing a man with a harmless tatoo on no matter what the tatoo is

@bungarsargon @rafaelasie Ah the center-right Free Press is having a hay day with this while denying the GOP propping up sexual assaulters from Donald Trump to Dennis Hastert to Fishback in Florida who tried to fuck a teen. We had a literal pedophile as third in line to the presidency for all of Bush Jr…

I've been waiting for years to hear words like "projection" being used in the media. I think it's a small step in the right direction. Hopefully, by next year maybe, we can start talking about mass psychosis, loss of ritual containment of archetypal material and so on. I can dream, can't I?

@bungarsargon @rafaelasie "Everything they said about the right was just pure projection" Hear! Hear!
