What of the alt-right stuff? There was a furor in this forum when a couple of white nationalists offered unsolicited support to Trump but where are the Furies now?
Where are the TBR Furies? Why are they not damning Castle?
What alt-right stuff? The high five emoji?
One of Castle's supporters knows a guy (James Edwards) who has a radio show called
The Political CesspoolThat guy (Edwards) has had KKK and other alt-right types on his show. The supporter guest hosted the show while Edwards was off reporting live from a
Trump Rally. Edwards interviewed Trump's son on his show
The Liberty Roundtable.
So one of his supporters knows a guy who knows a guy....
Do you want to go there? If you take that many degrees of separation, I would wager that virtually any candidate could be tied into anything from Al Qaida to Zoroastrianism.
The article goes on to discuss yet someone else's opinions and beliefs, a Mr Makow, at length, who was an article contributor to
The Liberty Roundtable.
From the article, the money quote:
While the evidence is solid that Mr. Castle, Mr. Peck and especially Pastor Baldwin in no way condone and/or share such racially-tinged beliefs & viewpoints as that of Mr. Makow, and such individuals are even more likely unaware of Makow’s highly extremist rhetoric within the Liberty Roundtable website; nevertheless, the fact that Darrell Castle, who is trying to appeal to the disgruntled American voter with his message of constitutional government, individual liberty, and also reestablished moral, traditional values rooted upon Biblical law -however his attempts to claim to be more libertarian then Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson, ...
There have been Libertarian hit pieces aimed at Castle before, and I smell that rat here: Cody Quirk, the author of this lame attempt to try to tie castle to Makow, with about the same logic that makes a grain farmer liable for a drunk driver running someone down (The farmer grew the grain that was made into whiskey that the driver drank...). is an unabashed Libertarian Party shill, who has attacked Castle before with wild-eyed claims that have distorted Castle's statements and tried to marginalize Castle.
If this was Catie Couric attacking Trump, you'd know the players. You'd say there was Democrat MSM bias.
Well, some news for you, the same thing is happening now as the Libertarian Party is trying to marginalize the rest of the 'third' parties out there. The easiest way to do that is to rely on people too lazy to click on a link or check the veracity of a statement and allege with cherry picked quotes and vague associations that someone is guilty of or a supporter of something they are not.
One of the simplest strategies is to say that someone knows someone who knows someone who says....
Like Hillary knows Muslims who know Mursi who know people who toppled the government of Egypt. Or Trump has had business dealings with a Saudi Prince who knows...
By the time you get two or three associations away, almost everyone knows someone who knows someone who knows someone who isn't aligned with your political beliefs.
