Michigan governor Whitmer is not getting her way so she is lashing out. From The Hill:
Michigan Gov. Whitmer: Lockdown protests are 'racist and misogynistic'
Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) said Wednesday that the lockdown protests are “racist and misogynistic” and called on those with a platform to discourage the demonstrators.
Whitmer told ABC’s “The View” that the protests are “really political” as demonstrators have brought nooses, Confederate flags and Nazi symbolism.
“This is not appropriate in a global pandemic,” she said. “But it’s certainly not an exercise of democratic principles where we have free speech. This is calls to violence. This is racist and misogynistic.”
No Confederate flags have been seen at the protests - there have been a number of Gadsen flags but those predate the American Civil War by 86 years (1775 v/s 1861).
The only signs I have seen with Nazi (National Socialist) insignia have been in direct protest to Whitmer's heavy-handed tactics - directed at her.
She has nothing so she falls back on the default liberal cry of racism.
We need to remember to punch back twice as hard.
