    Red face CPAC Cancels Speaker for Being Politically Incorrect 3.0

    Why do conservatives invest so much into canceling speakers? I think this is like the fourth year in-a-row we've had a thread about CPAC inviting, then canceling an unpopular speaker.

    Leading Republican officials are set to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) this week along with a virulently anti-Semitic speaker named Young Pharaoh.

    Young Pharaoh is an online commentator who has told followers that Judaism is a “complete lie” and “made up for political gain,” said that Jewish people are “thieving fake Jews,” tweeted that “all the censorship & pedophilia on social media is being done by Israeli Jews,” and claimed that “all of these big tech [companies], media, & social media platforms are controlled by CCP & Israel through Jewish CEO & corrupt Democrats.” Young Pharaoh has also attacked conservative commentator Ben Shapiro for being Jewish. He’s additionally promoted the QAnon and Pizzagate conspiracy theories and falsely claimed that coronavirus vaccines will “alter your DNA.”

    The American Conservative Union and ACU Chair Matt Schlapp run CPAC, which is scheduled for February 25-28 in Orlando, Florida. On its website, CPAC describes itself as “the largest and most influential gathering of conservatives in the world. Launched in 1974, CPAC brings together hundreds of conservative organizations, thousands of activists, millions of viewers and the best and brightest leaders in the world.” This year’s speakers include former President Donald Trump, Govs. Ron DeSantis (FL) and Kristi Noem (SD), and numerous other leading Republicans.

    According to its schedule, CPAC is hosting Young Pharaoh during a Sunday session called “Please Check the Number and Dial Again: Doubt, Dysfunction, and the Price of Missed Opportunities.” CPAC states on its website that Young Pharaoh is a “Philosopher, Scholar, Musician” and links to his Twitter account. CPAC also links to youngpharaoh.net — that site redirects to “Pharaoh Aten University,” which features Young Pharaoh’s videos spreading conspiracy theories about vaccines and the “new world order.”

    Young Pharaoh has posted numerous anti-Semitic tweets. He’s also frequently promoted dangerous conspiracy theories. Here is a sampling of the tweets on his CPAC-promoted account.


    Feel free to get out of the boat, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it.

    (Note these are the depths to which Trump’s Republican party apparatchiks increasingly have to sink to find themselves a Black Trump supporter).

    And of course the punch line:

    Update (2/22/21): CPAC has cancelled Young Pharaoh’s scheduled appearance following the publication of this article. Young Pharaoh’s information has also been removed from CPAC’s website. The theme of this year’s gathering is “American Uncanceled.”

    Given how often this happens, you'd figure these conservative groups would like, have an intern spend 5-10 minutes doing research (i.e. checking out their social media feeds) on guests before inviting and promoting them.

    I hope he shows up anyways and spends the entire event ranting about cancel culture just outside of it. Let's see if we can get Alex Jones, David Clarke, and the rest of the nutters to join him!

    "American Uncanceled" already canceled someone. The fucking irony is hysterical.

    This guy tries to demonize and delegitimize the state of Israel... He's a SJW and not a real conservative.

    If he isn’t a real conservative then why did they invite him in the first place?

    Also conservative organizations like the KKK are also really anti-Semitic.

    I mean all religions are about imaginary beings and made up for political gain. The thieving part is obviously vile and hateful.

    Why would the Conservative Political Action Conference invite a far-left SJW, as you say? Are they incompetent or something?

    Speaking of CPAC

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-b1805813.html

    Texas senator Ted Cruz will reportedly address this week’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) with a speech about cancel culture.

    Mr Cruz will speak to conservative leaders on Friday at the annual event, which starts on Thursday in Orlando, Florida, according to the conference schedule.
    A Twitter user, in response to Mr Cruz’s scheduled appearance at CAPC, wrote: “Hey Texas! Just thought y'all should know that instead of advocating for the millions of Texans still without power and basic resources due to last week's weather crisis, Ted Cruz will be speaking at CPAC this Friday. What will he be talking about? Cancel culture.”
    That's not to say Cruz doesn't have his defenders:

    Donald Trump Jr, meanwhile, defended Mr Cruz after the Cancun controversy and said in a video that although “the optics” were not ideal, “I’m not going to jump on this bandwagon of trying to cancel the guy.” Because Cruz is the real victim here.

    Yes and all those tiki torch bros shouting "JEWS WILL NOT REPLACE US" and "BLOOD AND SOIL" were SJWs too.

    I could be wrong but didn't they have Milo as a speaker a few years back?

    No he got cancelled too.

    In a rare display of honesty from Milo he had talked candidly about having spent time with older gay dudes. CPAC was not pleased.

    The bigger question is how does someone like that even get picked? I'd never heard of him before this, Milo I had some knowledge of before his failed attempt at speaking at it.

    Consider this tho... Who would willingly intern for CPAC this day and age?

    It's either going to be someone who would actually think Adolph Hitler himself would make a good speaker, or one of those Liberty "University" graduates who are just one sunny day away from thinking Donald Trump is in fact the second coming of Jesus Christ.

    Because the amoral but competent careerist is going to stay the fuck away from this dumpster fire to avoid soiling his resume.

    "Thieving fake pedophiliac Israeli Jew who's all about censorship"

    It's like a Reich wing stereotype word salad. Does it matter if it's true? No. Does it matter if it makes sense in English? Fuck no!

    Haha, yeah it was those darn SJWs screaming "The Jews will not replace us" while marching with tiki torches-

    Oh no wait, it was conservatives. Fuck off with your BS deflections. Accept what your ideology is.

    Are you saying... they’re cancelling the cancellers?

    But isn’t that cancelling?
