Asked to give her thoughts on the shutdown of right-wing social media platform Parler, Pirro said that she could see this coming: “Well, look, they gave us a taste of this pre-election when they suppressed the Hunter Biden story.” That’s right, they did! Luckily, every right-wing platform like Fox News only ran the evidence-free Hunter Biden story 24/7 instead of discussing stuff like Trump’s disastrous handling of both our public health policy and our economy. Pirro goes on to explain what this devilish censorship of fake stories about Hunter Biden portends: “Now that they’ve won, what we’re seeing is the kind of censorship that is akin to a Kristallnacht where they decide what we can communicate about.”
That’s quite a thing to say. Pirro seems to clearly hope that she can grab some of the thunder away from Arnold Schwarzenegger’s viral video over the weekend that analogized Germany’s Kristallnacht to the terror brought to Americans by insurgents attacking the Capitol building in Washington, D.C.
Kristallnacht, if you don’t know, means “Night of Broken Glass.” That’s because over a 48-hour period in November of 1938, “violent mobs, spurred by antisemitic exhortations from Nazi officials, destroyed hundreds of synagogues, burning or desecrating Jewish religious artifacts along the way. Acting on orders from Gestapo headquarters, police officers and firefighters did nothing to prevent the destruction. All told, approximately 7,500 Jewish-owned businesses, homes, and schools were plundered, and 91 Jews were murdered. An additional 30,000 Jewish men were arrested and sent to concentration camps.”
The broken glass refers to the shattered windows of Jewish businesses, schools, synagogues, and homes. It was a tragic and awful prelude to what would become one of the worst tragedies the world has ever seen. Parler is a social media platform filled with assholes making up bullshit conspiracies to protect their egos from the sham they’ve believed for far too long.
Maybe Pirro is thinking about how to protect herself for her part in inciting violence. I recall before the 2016 election the disgraced judge told Americans to arm themselves for a coming civil war.
The responses to Pirro’s loathsome statement came fast and furiously, but this is the only one I’ll post:
