Leen Dweik: Idiot at NYU who berated Chelsea Clinton

I saw that Dweik made tons of homophobic tweets, but she's getting support from all the usual suspect who hate the Clintons, like Glenn Greenwald.

Anyhow, Chelsea handed herself beautifully and made Dweik look like an unhinged mental case.

Jesus, the internet is not a friend of these little girls.

She needs a nose job.

She should overdose on lean.

And was her makeup done by Sephora? Cuz, um...

Dweik seems mentally ill.

Who is she fundraising for? Herself....Bernie Sanders????I smell a hustler

What exactly did she say.

I'm not interested in clicking on the video and giving this person's platform any more VIEWS if I disagree with her.

I'd get her to lose about 20 pounds, part her hair on the side and shorten it to attempt to change those porcine jowls. Plus a makeup expert to enliven those dead eyes and sculpt her face into something reasonable.

Good lord, her twitter feed is filled with tweets of her calling people Faggots, using the N-word and calling for the destruction of Israel. Another shining example of Muslim youth.

R10 link to this cunt’s Twitter please

Here ya go, R10. Knock yourself out.

A piece of work, this one.

It's entertaining how much she disdain she has for white men...except for Bernie.

Charming.

Post homophobic tweets please.

R15 here you go

R16 this ISLAMIC CUNT should be cancelled. Fuck Muslims, they are not are friends! If I’m a “faggot” then she’s a RAGHEAD CUNT! She can go fuck herself!

When they go low, r17 goes lower.

R18 yep going high got us Trump

And this is her justification and "apology" for saying these comments

[quote]last thing i’m gonna say is intensively searching through my tweets to find things i said when i was 14/15 and not fully socially-conscious is a blatant attempt to pull a “gotcha!” and delegitimize me. i’ve grown significantly in the 1/3rd of my life that has passed since then.

I hate how the left embraces these hateful, violent Muslims.

One of the few things Trump got right was the Muslim ban. However, it did not go far enough.

R20 nope still a homophobic CUNT.

But I apologize for saying “Raghead” a few posts ago, I’ve grown substantially since that post. I’m working on giving up “CUNT” now

[quote] yep going high got us Trump

Sure. Or how unlikeable Clinton was. Or economic insecurity. Or whatever bullshit reason the media decides today.

(Clue: it was really white male anxiety.)

R20, if Joy Reid can keep her high paying msnbc job and be widely defended despite writing hateful things at age 45, then this girl should be forgiven too. She was 14.

R23 well if Clinton had told Trump he was “a piece of shit” or fought harder in debates about the economic outcome she would bring instead of being a wimp and placating idiots like this bitch then Trump wouldn’t have won

R24 yeah sure, homophobic comments are fine. What about posting “NIGGER” when you’re 14? Free pass?

Sure, r25.

And when she lost you wouldn't have said, "If Clinton weren't so bitchy, she would have won."

R27 I think she should of been more of a bitch, but let’s digress to this CUNT.

Seriously... none of us want to be far right rednecks but do we really want to be THIS?

2015 she was supposedly a college student ,4 yrs ago she was 14?Somebody is lying

An who is she raising money for throught paypal......herself?

[quote] Seriously... none of us want to be far right rednecks but do we really want to be THIS?

Of course not. There are more than two options, you know.

Trump's gonna win because of this shit. Hell, Bill Clinton might vote for him.

I'm more interested in Leen Dweik. Remember when Chelsea refused to endorse same-sex marriage?

Fuk Chelsea Clinton....this was a ceremony to respect the 49 dead.Not an opportunity for this silly bitch to raise money for whatever fake political cause she is pushing.Her big nose was wrong........

Clinton had been invited by the organizers, R34. And Dweik's supporter linked to her own fundraising site on the tweet.

Israel needs to fund her to say and do anything that pops into her damaged brain. She’s gold.

This bitch is fucking insane.

What exactly was "violent" about what that activist did, you psycho worthless trolls? Pathetic

She joined Twitter in 2012, when she was what, 13? Shouldn't there be a minimum age?

Oh look, another Jew-hating Muslim socialist.

Agree with R32. Idiots like Dweik will hand the 2020 election to Trump on the proverbial silver platter. People like her will become the poster children for Repugs to denounce the liberal left.

R33 She's also a Methodist.

[quote]Sure. Or how unlikeable Clinton was. Or economic insecurity. Or whatever bullshit reason the media decides today.

It could have also been her policy of: “The US needs to take in 65000 more Muslims.”

Americans said no to that shit. Everyone knows what they’re like. Exhibit A: this Leen bitch.

[quote]Trump's gonna win because of this shit. Hell, Bill Clinton might vote for him.

Bill probably voted for him last time.

Have Ilan, AOC, Linda Sarsour, Keith Ellison commented on this?

The democrats need to get these toxic idiots out of their party.

[quote] It could have also been her policy of: “The US needs to take in 65000 more Muslims.”

Thanks for letting us know why you voted for trump, you piece of shit.

R46 oh geez another extremist, one or the other... never an in between.

Fuck Trump...but FUCK homophobic Muslims too!

She hasn't grown. She's just gotten better at hiding her homophobia.

R47, you are not denying it, and we know you didn't vote for Clinton. So thanks for trump.

kind of annoyed at kathy griffin defending chelsea when chelsea was one of the first to attack kathy over her photoshoot

R49 you’re insane.

R34 You sound just as crazy a shitbag cunt as Leen Dweik. Chelsea Clinton was invited to the memorial and accepted. Zweik took what was supposed to be a somber memorial for terror victims and turned it into a attention getting YouTube moment. Dweik and her buddies knew that it would go viral and I suspect that was the biggest motivation. Just trashy.

This girl looks like a repressed Lesbian

R38 The activist wasn't "violent " just unhinged and nonsensical. The terrorist in new Zealand likely HATED the Clinton's and probably jews as well as Muslims. He never would have been swayed by something a "evil lefty " had to say. And what Clinton said was completely fair, she criticized Omar for making anti Semitic remarks, not for being a Muslim. Why the fuck does this dumb activist think that being a Muslim should hold Omar to a lesser standard?

This cunt is insane! Painting Muslims as massive victims. It’s all white American Men’s fault. Once they remove them all from power then everyone will be treated equally...Sure...

“the only voices i care about in this situation are those of brown students and muslim students who were in that room. white people yelling at me via a twitter rage is the least of my concerns.”

[quote] An who is she raising money for throught paypal......herself?

Does one need to have a lot of money to attend NYU? If so, why is she grifting?

This is kind of confusing.... aren't the Clintons supposed to be 'on the side of the Muslims'? Yet this chick is a full-fledged Bernie Bro?

R57 a lot of these identity activists will shriek down other democrats rather than the far right. They have the same bullying and supremacist personalities as extreme alt righters. Dweik saw Clinton as a very easy target. The right detests the Clinton's family and will likely snicker at one being accosted, thinking "well, that's what they get for supporting immigrants, etc ". And the mainstream media has always hated the Clinton's as well (look at the 2016 media coverage )so won't get too worked up. I guarantee you she would not have tried this shit with a less socially acceptable target.

I sometimes wonder if Omar, Tlaib, et al. aren't undercover republicans. Trump couldn't pay for this.

Leen??

She looks a bit chunky.

badam tish r60

You take away these people's identity as victims and what have they got?

I wonder where the aggression comes from? Is it the pent up frustration of having to always go around the back to pray?

Can you fucking imagine what would happen if Chelsea Clinton had turned down the invitation to the memorial? I think many democrats are getting the message that they simply cannot win.

R62 A busted vagina, nearly out of battery power.

It's difficult to calculate these things for the Hierarchy of Oppressions. How does the slaughter of Muslim POC in New Zealand compare to the CAUCASTIC presence of Chelsea Clinton at a memorial for said slaughtered Muslim POC from NZ and the triggering her attendance caused for Dweik and her ilk?

R61:

It’s ba-DOON-chAAAH

Right on the front page of her Twitter under her photo are her "pronouns":

(she/her)

Why do these ideologies overlap so much?

R66 I still can't believe she used the (made up ) word "caucastic ". Her ranting reads like a south park parody episode of college activism. One thing that strikes me is that this Leen Dweik woman doesn't seem particularly grief stricken or sad... she seems almost excited by a chance to perform publicly. She's a cross between an angry bully and a stunt queen theater kid.

[quote] She's a cross between an angry bully and a stunt queen theater kid.

That's exactly what she is, and she's very intersectional about it.

Little Cunt is getting dragged on Twitter.

Don’t worry all the people calling her “a raghead” will learn from it in the future, like she did saying “Faggot”

[quote][R49] you’re insane.

And yet you are still not denying it, so chances are you did vote for trump, R47. And I would say based on your posts here, you did it out of pure misogyny.

R72 Ms "Sippin Dat " is now going to use those tweets as an excuse to play the victim. She'll get an interview with a sympathetic media outlet (probably either Salon, Huffington Post or Jezebel ) and the narrative will be rewritten as "Muslim Female Activist Barraged With Racial Abuse ". She has a typical bully personality type, they can dish it out but they cannot take it. And I suspect that she is still quietly homophobic but no longer quite so stupid to make those thoughts public. What a Cunt.

Shocking completely no one, she and her friend have doubled down with this Buzzfeed Op-Ed. They just keep on going, blaming everyone else while refusing to take responsibility for their actions and admit they were in the wrong.

[quote]We did a double take when we first noticed Chelsea Clinton was at the vigil. Just weeks before this tragedy, we bore witness to a bigoted, anti-Muslim mob coming after Rep. Ilhan Omar for speaking the truth about the massive influence of the Israel lobby in this country. As people in unwavering solidarity with Palestinians in their struggle for freedom and human rights, we were profoundly disappointed when Chelsea Clinton used her platform to fan those flames. We believe that Ilhan Omar did nothing wrong except challenge the status quo, but the way many people chose to criticize Omar made her vulnerable to anti-Muslim hatred and death threats.

[quote]We were shocked when Clinton arrived at the vigil, given that she had not yet apologized to Rep. Omar for the public vilification against her. We thought it was inappropriate for her to show up to a vigil for a community she had so recently stoked hatred against. We were not alone in feeling uncomfortable — many students were dismayed to see her there.

[quote]So when we saw Chelsea, we saw an opportunity to have her ear and confront her on her false charge of anti-Semitism against our only Black, Muslim, Somali, and refugee member of Congress. We took our chance to speak truth to power. Chelsea hurt our fight against white supremacy when she stood by the petty weaponizers of antisemitism, showing no regard for Rep. Omar and the hatred being directed at her.

[quote]We know that our only safety is through solidarity. The fight against anti-Muslim bigotry is the fight against anti-Semitism is the fight against racism is the fight against white supremacy. When someone attacks one of us, they attack all of us. We know that our struggles are intertwined, and for any of us to be safe, all of us must be safe.

[quote]To Chelsea Clinton: We hope that our intentions in confronting you are now clear. We believe that you still owe an apology: not only to Rep. Omar, but also to Palestinians for using your platform to defame their cause. As an Israeli national and a Palestinian, we want you to know that it is dangerous to label valid criticisms of Israel and its lobby as anti-semitic. We know that this is a tactic to silence us and deny us our free speech.

R73 here. I meant to write r71

R74 Haha so she wrote a piece for buzzfeed then. I was sure it would be either Jezebel or Salon but close enough. She's such a retard, babbling on about Clinton "standing with white supremacy ". White supremacists support anti Semitic comments, that's probably one of the few things they would agree with Omar on.

Her friend who co-wrote the article (and filmed the video of her and Chelsea and then put up a Venmo get donations) is an "Israeli-American Jewish woman" who no doubt hates her parents and is doing this to get back at them for ruining her childhood somehow.

I'll give them points in that their smart enough to figure out that in the Age of Trump, the shrillest voices get the most buzz and that by targeting Chelsea they managed to get their names in print and to tie being anti-Omar into being anti-Muslim, which, oddly enough, is pretty much what they are accusing Clinton and others of.

^^In that they are smart enough

R77 "Who no doubt hates her parents...". Spot on. And yes, they have certainly picked up on the rules for obtaining media attention. Funny how the discussion and event became all about Leen Dweik and her close up, not about the 50 dead victims.

So the takeaway is “Raghead” or “Sand Nigger” bad to say, “Faggot” okay to say? Right...?

God, everybody's such a cunt these days.

Aren't 50 dead by gunfire in NZ more important than one (of many) basic twitter whore in America?

Can't believe this waste of space took up a seat that could have went to a far more deserving American student.

R82, actually it is very important to let this idiot know where she stands in the eyes of most Americans no matter their political affiliation.

If I were Chelsea Clinton I would have been terrified that this Berniebro CUNT might have punched me in the stomach next, putting my unborn baby in jeopardy. IMO she reacted exactly the right way faced with this nutjob.

She should be expelled.

Ha! The one comment on Buzzfeed:

"Rose. I've seen some of your past posts on Twitter where you freely drop the gay "F" word slur. By your own logic, you are responsible for the Pulse nightclub massacre. 49 lives lost there is on your hands, too"

R87 truth

R87 That comment hit the nail on the head. Tired of this view that certain types of hate are acceptable. The other woman, the Dweik bitch, claimed that we shouldn't hold it against her that she used to throw around the word faggot, because she wasn't as "aware and conscious " as she is now. These types never seem to hold themselves to the same standards they hold other people.

They love to judge everyone but themselves.

R87

I agree. But a lot of the Resistance types attacking her over those comments also defended Joy Reid. Trust no one.

Most of you have your heads so far up HRC's butt that you can't see that she is a war criminal. It is because of the likes of you that Trump won.

Chelsea Clinton is part of the elite and shares in the spoils. And instead you take on a brave young woman because she chose to face the orthodoxy.

ok r92 you can't be gay,you have to be a troll. This girl used anti-gay slurs repeatedly. FUCK OFF.

Chelsea is a war criminal?

"We should expect all elected officials, regardless of party, and all public figures to not traffic in anti-Semitism.”

Im more upset at Chelsea Clinton's split infinitive.

"I'm", of course. My keyboard is experiencing a myriad of problems.

[quote][R38] The activist wasn't "violent " just unhinged and nonsensical. The terrorist in new Zealand likely HATED the Clinton's and probably jews as well as Muslims. He never would have been swayed by something a "evil lefty " had to say. And what Clinton said was completely fair, she criticized Omar for making anti Semitic remarks, not for being a Muslim. Why the fuck does this dumb activist think that being a Muslim should hold Omar to a lesser standard?

Or, instead of making crap up or suppositions about what he HATED or didn't HATE, you could, oh I don't know, actually read his 87 page manifesto in which he articulates in revolting detail his reasons for doing what he did.

I can't believe scum like r92 is on this site.

Muslims are the oppressors not the victims. Concentration camps in Chechnya. Hangings in Iran. Beheading in Saudi Arabia. Fuck islam.

[quote]One of the few things Trump got right was the Muslim ban. However, it did not go far enough.

Well I for one did Nazi that comment coming.

She needs to shut up, put her burqua on and get to making babies, and as a good Muslim woman I'm sure she'd agree.

I can see your mouth, whore!

This is not PC but a large proportion of these ethnic /racial activists tend to have an almost pathological animus towards Jews or people they view supportive of Jews. This confrontation reminded me of the group of Evergreen College students who yelled down that professor Bret Weinstein, who tried to engage in a dialogue with them. All they wanted to do was harangue. The irony is they are most aggressive and hateful towards the people who are most likely to try to hear them out. It's self defeating behavior.

Dummy is deleting those racist,homophobic tweets as we speak.I hope NYU gets in her refrigerator shaped behind next week.Dummy didn't think that begging and race baiting might effect her NYU ambitions.What an igtard....is she mentally disabled?Her face looks like the spawn on inbreeding....

[QUOTE] This girl used anti-gay slurs repeatedly. FUCK OFF.

She was only FOURTEEN when she wrote those dumb tweets, silly. You fuck off.

Why isn't NYU expelling her?

She might be a lesbian, which may be why she felt entitled to use the f word so much.

r103 they're spoiled little brats...plain and simple. They don't want debate, just yell and think they're right then go home an be miserable. Too many "kids"(I use this term cause they're all like 30) today act like this.

Expelled for exercising her right to free speech?

[quote]All they wanted to do was harangue.

Exactly like the Catholic Church, Muslims and Nazis did. Harangue Jews for being "Christ killers". Now they harangue Jews for being "Palestinian killers", using identical imagery and slander that has been used to denigrate and demonize Jews for 1,700 years.

She’s a college senior and wrote those tweets four years ago at 14 r105?

Was really disappointed to see Ira Madison III support her -- so many people are happy to ally with homophobes, racists and antisemites just because they "take on" the Clintons or the DNC. Used to be only the GOP did that, but now it's also the GOP and the Bernie left.

R109 And what's your fetish? Where do you draw the line at another's "free speech"? Because you're just another bigot excusing bigotry because it's targeted at those you deride to mitigate your own failures and insecurity.

She's saying she was 13-14 when she wrote those tweets but pretty clearly was 17 or 18. Old enough to know better.

"I did a socialism, please give me money!" Idiotic. Crazy that actual literal adults are falling for it. She's going to be a registered Republican within a decade, guaranteed.

So explain what you think she should be expelled for? The tweets? Those were done years ago, NYU should have vetted her better back then if that was such a concern. It's too late now.

Where is this bitch from? What's with all the 'y'all' and 'dat' crap from her? Does she think that makes her sound cool? This slag needs to be dealt with.

[QUOTE] Because you're just another bigot excusing bigotry because it's targeted at those you deride to mitigate your own failures and insecurity.

Well I am gay. I don't take the tweets of a young teen seriously. I have a much thicker skin than that.

And also explain how I'm a bigot? I have no idea what you are talking about.

[quote]The democrats need to get these toxic idiots out of their party.

They're not in the party. They're fighting it, halfheartedly doing so from within, but they're not really Democrats.

The media and the GOP want you to think they're our party, but they're not. I very much wish the DNC would address this head on, but I suspect they're afraid of making the problem worse.

It's no coincidence that everything turned toxic the second Bernie decided to run.

[quote]but now it's also the GOP and the Bernie left.

Kamala Harris is not "the Bernie left". Neither is Gillibrand, Omar, Tlaib, Ellison, or any of the other politicians who remained silent and have become the ugly face of "liberal", "progressive" politics.

R118 pretends to be stupid. Read your posts. Bigot!

[quote]We did a double take when we first noticed Chelsea Clinton was at the vigil

What? Clinton has worked there since 2010, and she helped found the interfaith chapel this was held at. It was interfaith, too, so people of all races, creeds and religions were there; it's not as though Chelsea was the only white woman.

I guess this chick is the only person on the NYU campus who had no idea why Chelsea was at the memorial.

You're the stupid one R118. You're not even coherent. You're ranting, you're raving, you're out of control.

R121

[QUOTE] It's no coincidence that everything turned toxic the second Bernie decided to run.

Yes, because running corporate centrists like Booker has worked out so well for the party.

R123 And you continue to pretend to be stupid. Bigot!

Could someone put R126 out of it's misery? Muriel?

[quote]It's no coincidence that everything turned toxic the second Bernie decided to run.

"Everything turned toxic" when Frankin was scapegoated by Gillibrand and the Dem Party. "Everything turned toxic" when no one raised a concern about Ellison's election to the DNC. "Everything turned toxic" when Dems started behaving exactly like the GOP, alt-right and Deplorables they condemn yet had the temerity to continue to call themselves "liberal".

So the defense from this broke nose whores camp now is she was too young to know better.Even as she called african americans the "n" word,called gays fags and wished death on Zionist.You stupid bitches would excuse a fire at a klan rally as a spark started by lighting if it supported your racist agenda.An you all are gay applauding her hate speech,damn i guess its true.You silly cunts would actually dance at your own funeral for some shine and approval of other faux caucasians. This little whore can go fuk herself and if you agree with her so can you.Ignorant sluts.

Why don't YOU fuck off, R105? Her age isn't an excuse.

R129 are you typing from a phone?

Great comment, R129.

R121/R126/R130 is a senseless, writhing thing lashing out. Kind of like that "baby" from It's Alive.

R131, your attempt to minimze and deflect further perpetuates the meme you’re trying to discredit.

I'm innocent! IN-NO-CENT I tell ya!

I hope Bernie gets elected and gives Leen Dweik some type of position in the White House, just so I can watch all of you melt down once again.

[quote]An you all are gay applauding her hate speech

Honestly, other than the Big Four of obvious trolls who we have endured for years (and who all should die in the most fantastic fire that grease can provide), I would bet most of the trolls on here aren't gay. The folks in the anti-Muslim threads have let slip that they weren't part of the community a few times, for instance, and I'm sure some are on this very thread.

R133 is a patronizing and passive-aggressive anti-gay sympathizer.

According to this Heavy.com article, Leen appears to come from a very affluent family (quelle surprise, given NYU) and has a side business selling her used $700 Gucci shoes online.

Unclear if that family lives somewhere in the Middle East or in the West.

There is no sick thing as Islamophobia. It’s normal to be fearful of a hate-filled, violent ideology rooted in the Dark Ages.

That’s like saying someone is “Nazi-phobic”.

I've gone over and over this several times over two days and I cannot understand how anyone could agree with Dweik and the Sanders supporters on this. Chelsea misspoke when she said "As an American" in that tweet, but to get from her accidental implication to "49 died because of the rhetoric you put out there" is astonishing.

Then seeing multiple blue-check Twitter accounts saying that the world has gone crazy because it's so obvious Chelsea was at fault is just a complete Twilight Zone moment. We've had a lot of those lately but this one really is bugging me. This one makes me think a vast majority of Americans simply make up whatever makes them feel better; i.e. if they hate the Clintons, they will believe the lie that Chelsea Clinton killed 49 Muslims in New Zealand.

[quote]Was really disappointed to see Ira Madison III support her -- so many people are happy to ally with homophobes, racists and antisemites just because they "take on" the Clintons or the DNC. Used to be only the GOP did that, but now it's also the GOP and the Bernie left.

I gave up on Ira about a year ago. So tired of gay men defending homophobes for some points.

[quote]She was only FOURTEEN when she wrote those dumb tweets, silly. You fuck off.

Which was what, four years ago? No excuse.

R141-- Twitter is not the real world. The "blue check" only means the person is active in the Twitterverse. Because so many journos are active on Twitter, they assume that everyone else is and that what is happening on the platform is reflective of how the majority of people feel.

It's not.

The one lesson of Trump is that in today's media environment the more outrageous and confrontational you are, the more buzz you generate.

Hence AOC.

But her name... hahahahaha it gives me the kikis.

My concern, R144, is that so many people are swayed by the journos and influencers (like Ira, who I mentioned up thread) who say these crazy things, and in the minds of a lot of people, their opinions have weight because of the blue check and number of followers.

You don't like that. That's fine. But your dislike of it doesn't mean it's not true.

The controversial things they say on Twitter are the exact same controversial things they were saying in print and on cable news prior to social media. It's what the media has done since the 1980s. (And what non-news entertainment media did prior to that; Reagan just made it easy for the actual news to do it, too.)

It's frightening, and you haven't been paying attention if you haven't seen examples of this before. This one, as I said, is just personally more upsetting to me because it's so outrageous and dangerous, and is happening at the beginning of the campaign cycle, hinting at it getting even worse as the months go on.

I hate her. There's a lot to be said about the US and Israel and she's young but this is shitty activism. She seems like a moron.

Even DJT Jr. defended Chelsea. This young girl is mental. All Chelsea said was not to hate Jewish people.

"Sippin on dat" is pretending to be a black American, or a stereotype of one for fake hip cred.

The Democrats will have to accept that this is what happens when you bring Muslims into the Party.

They are not capable of co-existing with anyone else.

[quote]They are not capable of co-existing with anyone else.

And that really sums it up. As much as people don't want to hear that, it's true.

This cunt needs to be sent to one of those muslim countries where she would only be allowed to open her mounth when it's her time to suck her husband's cock.

These people slamming Chelsea for being Islamophobic were really just creating an immature "gotcha" moment.

Omar had made the comment about Jews and "dual loyalties" which sounded like the old anti-semitic slur about how Jews could never be real Americans (or whatever country they were in).

When Chelsea said the "As an American" thing, the Omar stans and BernieBros basically said, "See, Omar isn't calling Jews' loyalty and citizenship into question, Chelsea is calling OMAR'S loyalty and citizenship into question! She's the real bigot!"

From there the temper tantrum escalated because that's what happens nowadays. People in their 30s and younger have never lived in a world where a Clinton has not been shit on for political gain, so they think that's just how it's done.

The only people being influenced by people on Twitter are other people on Twitter R146

Sounds like you're one of them.

Your friend Ira is well known to the 10% of the population that are heavy enough Twitter users to know what "blue check mark" means, but unknown to everyone else.

If you think of how many hardcore Twitter users are on there for politics (rather than jokes or Kardashian gossip or sports or porn or music) that subgroup gets even smaller.

The danger is when journalists pick up the noise on Twitter and amplify it by writing about it everywhere from BuzzFeed to WaPo to Bright Bart.

Because the 24 hour news cycle needs to be fed and nothing feeds it like Twitter.

I do agree with your other point though, that people like Leen will be attempting to sabotage the Democrats throughout the primary season and beyond and lord help us if there is a white man (or even a white woman) on the ticket.

I will also guarantee you that Leen will grow up to be a pain in the ass at her kids PTA and eventually a right wing conservative once she hits 50.

Most of the people posting on this thread are hateful anti-Islamic bigots. So most of these posters are not gay.

Chelsea Clinton was just piling on with comments and false accusations about Omar, and it was uncalled for. She has no one but herself to blame for this incident. Maybe she's planning to run for office and thought going after Omar would help her with centrist Democrat elites.

[QUOTE] I do agree with your other point though, that people like Leen will be attempting to sabotage the Democrats throughout the primary season and beyond and lord help us if there is a white man (or even a white woman) on the ticket.

That is why I don't understand why Biden is the favorite right now? Not only is he old and white but he has serious MeToo issues.

She wasn't piling on by any definition of the word.

And Ira Madison III isn't just somebody's friend, he's a writer and comedian. Kardashian stans would know who he is.

Kardashian stans who are on Twitter is still only a small percentage of the population.

NEWS FLASH: No one outside of Datalounge know who Erna is either

The nation needs someone who is anti-imperialist and Islamocentric in the White House. And not phony Islamocentric like Barack "I love drones" Obama. But strangely enough I think Bernie could pull it off.

[quote]The only people being influenced by people on Twitter are other people on Twitter [R146]

[quote]Because the 24 hour news cycle needs to be fed and nothing feeds it like Twitter.

Went back and read this and am completely confused. You said only heavy Twitter users would get influenced by tweets, then said anyone who watches the 24hr news cycle would be influenced by tweets.

And looking at his bio R158, I highly doubt that Kardashian stans would know who he is.

He's a political writer for fringe publications, not a stand up.

He uses words with more than two syllables, so instant TL;DR for K stans

[QUOTE] She wasn't piling on by any definition of the word.

She made (false) accusations of anti-semitism days or weeks after others did so. That's the definition of piling on.

Only heavy Twitter users get influenced by most of what is on Twitter, R161

The danger is when lazy journos, feeding the 24 hour news cycle, dig into Twitter to create news stories, thus giving it reach way beyond its weight class.

But say 90% of the nonsense on Twitter stays on Twitter.

This particular story broke out of the echo chamber because the Clinton name guarantees clicks.

Her tweet was on February 10th, the day Omar tweeted about AIPAC. It wasn't days or weeks later, and it was one tweet that Omar herself replied favorably to.

Stop lying.

The problem is many see people like Leen Dweik as the face of the new Dems.

Making false accusations is serious business. It's even more serious when you have the platform Chelsea Clinton commands.

Miss Thing might wanna take a gander at a map before runnin’ huh mouff about” Caucasity.” Her neck of the woods looks to be at least as close to the Caucasus Mountains as Europe.…she is classified by all who study such things as a Caucasian! Had enough of such poseurs who feign negritude when it’s convenient. I always ask such dolts (when conversation remains civil) to explain the racial differences between Israelis and Palestinians while they’re screaming about Israel’s “racist” policies. Haven’t ever gotten an answer. I also point out that I’ve never seen any Palestinian as dark as an ethnically Ugandan or Ethiopian Jewish Israeli citizen. That also usually shuts them up. Enough! Jaysus. STFU.

0/10 for R168.

I don't care who's side she's on she sounds like an obnoxious unhinged little bitch.

Don’t care none, doofus(168)

Leen Sweik just got her 15 minutes of fame.....and she hasn't used it well

I just wish I could unsee that abortion of a post at R168. But I can't. It's burned into my eyeballs.

Are you offering your knowledge of the topic, 169?

Dumb cunt, indeed

Bernbots are our trumpkins. They are why trump is president.

You've got it all backwards R176. If Bernie had gotten the nomination we wouldn't have Trump as president right now.

She’s an attention whore who wants to make money doing shit like this. Too lazy for a regular job and for all her bitching about “white” people she looks fairly white to me.

Some people have difficulty understanding that “Jew” and “Muslim” are not races... they are religions.

[quote]You've got it all backwards [R176]. If Bernie had gotten the nomination we wouldn't have Trump as president right now.

I think you misunderstand what “getting it backwards” means, bernbot, thereby helping to prove my point about Bernbots being our trumpkins.

R179, Jewish is not just a religion. It’s a race too. There is a Jewish people and it includes non religious Jews.

Uh, no, r181, it’s not a race. Do you mean ethnicity?

[quote] Omar had made the comment about Jews and "dual loyalties" which sounded like the old anti-semitic slur about how Jews could never be real Americans (or whatever country they were in).

Omar made no such comment. You’re a fucking liar.

Omar is a hateful cunt while Chelsea is not

Fuck Omar.

A bit off topic here, but does MsDweik enjoy anal? Because I have a road cone with her name on it.

[quote]Not only is he old and white

Yet Bernie Sanders is practically the oldest white man in America.

Didn't you all see Andy Lassner and DL queen Kathy Griffin defend Joy Reid? Why are you surprised.

R153 "People under 30 have never lived in a world where Clinton has not been shit on for political gain ". That's what it comes down to. The sick obsession with "sticking it" to the Clinton's is a huge part of why we have Trump in office. Reporters, journalists, and attention whore cunts like Dweik realize that nothing gains you more brownie points than attacking the Clinton's. When Trump and Clinton were running against each other, journalists and commentators piled on the Clinton's not because they were just as bad as Trump but because they were safe targets. When they arrived in DC decades ago, the Clinton's were targeted by a vicious smear campaign from the mainstream DC media and the far right. The same DC media that just adored John McCain and Newt Gingrich. So that tells you about the moral judgement of these reporters. Over the last few years the far left has joined in as well. The truth is there is very little that they can do that won't be ripped to shreds.

I'm singing this song to Ms Dweik, to the tune of Jingle Bells:

CUNT CUNT CUNT

CUNT CUNT CUNT

CUNT CUNT CUNT, CUNT CUNT

Give this bitch about 48 hours in Iran or Saudi Arabia and see how quickly she wants to get back to the Great Satan.

R183 she absolutely blew that dog whistle.

[quote]Some people have difficulty understanding that “Jew” and “Muslim” are not races... they are religions.

They also have difficulty grasping that Jews and Arabs are both Caucasian (i.e. white). To some, any Caucasian who isn't the fairest of the fair in color, are falsely stated to be some other (unknown) race. White people can be very light or very dark.

Arabs are Caucasian but not white. Nothing is going to change peoples' perception of that.

Because many people are uneducated and/or stupid. The media needs to do a better job explaining that Semitic and European people are the same race.

[quote]White Americans are Americans who are descendants from any of the white racial groups of Europe, the Middle East and North Africa

I've noticed many sjw activists act like the world is divided into paper white blue eyed blondes and dark brown skinned Africans. I regularly see them ascribe physical characteristics that are frequently seen in "ethnic " whites, such as thick curly hair or deeply tanned skin, as exclusively black. When Kim Kardashian and Ariana Grande got tans, it was described as "blackface ". These women are certainly dimwits but that's not fucking blackface. And these are the same people always shrieking about "erasure ".

You don't have to be woke to understand that throwing around the F word and the N word is wrong.

Would someone please define war criminal?

Anyone who dares to disagree with Bernie and AOC.

Dwelk’s a cunt... they come in every color.

R200 FTW

Well done, sir!

r193 I actually find a lot of Arabs and middle eastern people pastier than fucking casper. r194 nobody gave a fuck if someone was arab when I was in school. I find it funny, people care more about race now, than they did 30, 40 years ago.

[quote]Omar made no such comment. You’re a fucking liar.

That's EXACTLY what she did, and why she was being called out. You're just too stupid, not paying attention, or purposely lying.

[quote]That's EXACTLY what she did, and why she was being called out.

That’s not what she did which is the reason there has been so much backlash, you stupid shit. She was talking about politicians, not Jews, most of which are actually Christian, which was besides the point. Even Andrew Sullivan came to her defense. Keep it up. You’re only helping her.

It's always the same with these people, perceived victim privilege, they don't accept them being criticized for their antisemitism.

R195, that's what Hitler tried to do.

Implying the Aryan race is superior to the Semitic race is what gave us the Holocaust.

Ashkenazi Jews, despite centuries in Europe, still have significant Middle Eastern ancestry.

As for the Muslims, they're not the only ones with Jew hatred/anti Semitic views. I've heard many white and black Americans and even Latinos with the same views.

The only ones who don't seem to fall into disgusting anti Semitic tropes are the Asians.

R206 again please, in English this time.

[QUOTE] The only ones who don't seem to fall into disgusting anti Semitic tropes are the AsianThe only ones who don't seem to fall into disgusting anti Semitic tropes are the Asians.

How does one fall into a trope?

This cunt comes from a very wealthy family , sells used Gucci shoes online, and goes to one of our most prestigious colleges. But in the sjw victim hierarchy she would still be considered an opressed little victim. These far left campus activists spew anti Semitic hate right and left but no one is allowed to call foul. I've noticed they seem reluctant to try their craziness with republicans. It's always some mild mannered professor or somebody like Chelsea Clinton, who they know won't give them shit back or unleash their angry fans on them.

Fall for*

It is very telling that people on here are making jabs at this girl's appearance. But the minute someone makes fun of the appearance of Chelsea, or Democrats like Joe and Mika, people here would be wailing in indignation.

R193, technically, Turks and Iranians are more Caucasian than Swedes or Germans.

I think Arab men are sexy, especially the brown ones.

Batshit crazy Bernie Bro R206 is all over this thread

"Most of you have your heads so far up HRC's butt that you can't see that she is a war criminal. It is because of the likes of you that Trump won."

.....

"Chelsea Clinton is part of the elite and shares in the spoils. And instead you take on a brave young woman because she chose to face the orthodoxy."

.....

"I hope Bernie gets elected and gives Leen Dweik some type of position in the White House, just so I can watch all of you melt down once again."

....

"Most of the people posting on this thread are hateful anti-Islamic bigots. So most of these posters are not gay."

.....

"Chelsea Clinton was just piling on with comments and false accusations about Omar, and it was uncalled for. She has no one but herself to blame for this incident. Maybe she's planning to run for office and thought going after Omar would help her with centrist Democrat elites."

.....

"The nation needs someone who is anti-imperialist and Islamocentric in the White House. And not phony Islamocentric like Barack "I love drones" Obama. But strangely enough I think Bernie could pull it off."

.....

"Making false accusations is serious business. It's even more serious when you have the platform Chelsea Clinton commands."

.....

"You've got it all backwards R176. If Bernie had gotten the nomination we wouldn't have Trump as president right now."

Why is it that the far lefties who hate 'old white men' in politics all adore Bernie Sanders, who is an old white man that lives in one of the whitest parts of the United States? Can we get a succinct explanation on that?

Because Bernie Sanders trotted out uber antisemite Linda Sarsour every chance he could in 2016.

Link has an audio of Sarsour speaking at a CAIR event refusing to condemn the Charlie Hebdo terrorists.

Democrats can’t tolerate bigots...but we don’t go around massacring innocent people because of their skin color or sexual orientation or religion...

Maybe we should start.

Ugh, R217. Bernie must be a self hating Jew. I vote Libertarian so I have paid no attention to him. He seems full of contradictions.

These are the people Leen is celebrating

(Remember that other time Palestinians were celebrating and handing out candy. It was about 18 years ago. Sort of mid-September.

Oh right, 9/11

And here are Leens' kindly Hamas benefactors, jailing seven Palestinian reporters who were covering the protests that have broken out in Gaza because the government keeps spending the billions in Saudi and Emirati aid to lob bombs at Israel rather than create jobs or feed anyone.

Pretty much R219

He moved to Vermont to reinvent himself and to get as far away from Brooklyn as he could. Would be fascinating to learn what his relationship with his family was like.

R128 I agree. Franken was treated as if he were a monster but anti semitism is shrugged off as a joke. Tired of the democrats indulging these cunt activists, who will never ever be satisfied. Many of them have very authoritarian personalities and don't want anything but complete deference.

Linda is just a Brooklyn homegirl in a hijab.

Semitic people are not white. They are western asiatic.

Jews and Arabs are not white people in the sense that whites people are Indo-European.

Jews in America look white because there’s so much Russian, German, etc blood in them.

Why do I know for certain that people like R225 who obsesses over whether Northern Italians are white or white adjacent and the like are lonely working class shop bottoms working with mostly black and brown people who mercilessly mock their prissiness, and the only thing, literally the only thing they've got going for them is that they are pretty sure they are of 100% English or Scots descent.

r225 stfu and go back to whatever autistic forum you came from! r226 the dudes probably arab .

Both the far alt right and the far left minority activists (particularly Latin, black or mid eastern ) hate jews. I hate alt right white supremacists but I'm sick of this leftist mentality of ascribing only noble intentions to anyone deemed nonwhite (and the definition of non white changes periodically ). I hate this over indulgence towards minority anti semitism, as if it's somehow less offensive if it doesn't come from someone with blond hair and blue eyes. I also think many of these white leftists who instinctively side with minority activists have led very sheltered lives. They view everything through their sociology 101 course on privilege. All the things I hear democrats decry as exclusively white pathologies, such as homophobia, racism ,misogyny , abuse of the poor, are all behaviors I have seen in minorities as well as whites. I'm a misanthrope , but I hate selective outrage.

R215, some of us have them blocked for a reason. Don't repost their bullshit.

Proof that I have no time or use for Sanders supporters. They’re insane.

R92 is all over this thread. And - surprise, surprise - the troll is anti-Beto.

Let me simplify R228 -- in the minds of leftists, The White Man has a higher Burden.

So when Saudi Arabia doesn't let women drive or beheads people for having different political views, it's just savages being savages, they can't help themselves.

White People, OTOH, should know better and that's why they protest them.

R232 Yes, I suspect the bigotry of lowered expectations definitely plays a huge part.

Yes, whites are held to a higher standard.

Arabs were even more barbaric pre Islam. That's the scary part. Alot of the things blamed on Islam is really Arab barbarism.

Secretly, other Muslims (Turks, Pakistanis, Iranians, Malaysians, Afghans, Africans) hate Arabs and blame them for bringing terrorism and Jihadism into their countries . They like the religion but they don't like Arabs. I've heard Iranians and Turks tell me they prefer working with the Jews over Arabs

Whether the 'faggot' posts were twitted at age 14 or older, is not the issue, if the posts remained up until recently. The hateful tweets, if still up, as are relevant as if they were posted yesterday.

I kind of liked Bernie at first but his psychotic supporters soon fixed that.

All of white people should off ourselves and watch the darker complexion individuals be sooooooo civil and respectful of each other...

LOL YEAH FUCKING RIGHT

Most of the people posting here aren't real DLers. They are paid anti-Muslim posters working on a click farm somewhere. Probably overseas.

Second, of course I'm anti-Beto, R231. The country needs radical leftist change, not another pretty face in an empty suit.

[quote]Most of the people posting here aren't real DLers. They are paid anti-Muslim posters working on a click farm somewhere. Probably overseas.

Yes, they have to be. Because most gay men and lesbians love Islam and have no problem with it.

R239 is insane

Well it's pretty obvious that most of those on this thread are agenda posters. I mean who posts crap like this:

"[R225] stfu and go back to whatever autistic forum you came from! [R226] the dudes probably arab ."

R239 = twitter millennial who doesn't vote.

So stupid of her. She's forever stuck in working in activism now after college.

Expel her for harassing and yelling at a pregnant woman and guest. Simple.

At least she has the balls to be out in public and say what she thinks, R244. Unlike you.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. "

[quote]The nation needs someone who is anti-imperialist and Islamocentric in the White House.

Please elaborate, especially the 'Islamocentric' part.

R246, how is it good to yell out what you think in a totally inappropriate context? Silly.

She's destroyed her life.

I believe she has a future in politics.

NYU really produces some fine students.

People like R235 have no place on this site. Or this planet.

[QUOTE] Expel her for harassing and yelling at a pregnant woman and guest. Simple.

She didn't harrass anyone. And they can't expel someone for yelling at another person. So get a grip.

They can totally expel her. They're a private school. Yes they take public funds, but there's no procedural or substantive due process case.

Chelsea wasn't just a guest, R245. She's worked at NYU since 2010, and helped found this interfaith chapel several years ago. It is almost certain that Dweik knew Clinton was going to be there and planned this out. Her tweet about planning on saying something if Chelsea spoke implies that she'd planned this beforehand.

Still very concerning that so many BernieBros are still on Twitter, even this morning, saying Clinton shouldn't have been there because it was for Muslims only. No, it was very specifically the INTERFAITH memorial for the massacre. There were Muslim only memorials elsewhere, of course, as there should have been.

This cunt wrote a number of anti-gay Tweets using the word faggot and there are people here defending her. UNFUCINGBELIEVEABLE.

It's the SJW Bigotry of Lowered Expectations R255

She's a Brown Person and thus can't be expected to act like a civilized person, and so SJWs give her a pass.

SEE ALSO: Omar, Ilhan

Instead of criticizing this young brave woman, you should all focus on serious issues of homophobia! Like Christians not baking you a cake! That’s true homophobia. I’m fact, I see a white Christian baker right now! I’m gonna step right up to him and call him out on his homophobia! Will you join?

Actually, I take it all back. It wasnt a white Christian baker ,it was a Muslim throwing a fag off a roof. Nothing to see here, move along everyone!

R257 Is an autistic wanker who needs to die.

Die from being thrown from a rooftop?

R258 is a bigot against those of us who are not neurotypical and needs to die.

Silly R257

The white Christian baker is a civilized person from an advanced culture and thus should know better. Their homophobia is to be condemned loudly.

The Muslim throwing the gay man from a roof is an untamed savage who has not had the benefit of being exposed to woke people. We need to excuse their actions because they really don't know any better and who are we to judge their cultural norms. That's just our own Eurocentrism at work.

[quote] Instead of criticizing this young brave woman

R257, please explain to me how Ms. Dweik is brave? She harangued a woman for the benefit of social media. She is an attention-craved, ill-informed moron. That's not bravery. It's lunacy.

You posters are full of shit with your decidedly hypocritical and selective umbrage. You routinely rationalize, explain away, and make excuses for straight white guys you think are hot who have done even worse.

There is nothing brave if your accusations are complete bullshit

R263, were not talking about trannies who only chase after straight dick. Please do keep up! I think you might be looking for a Tobias thread...,

I was astonished to find that even the commenters at Jezebel seem to be mostly on Chelsea's side. Jezebel is SJW Central. If even the commenters there are getting sick of this nonsense, it gives me hope for the left.

[QUOTE] You posters are full of shit with your decidedly hypocritical and selective umbrage. You routinely rationalize, explain away, and make excuses for straight white guys you think are hot who have done even worse.

This is so true. They also seem very self serving, prioritizing gay rights over all other issues in the world.

[quote] If even the commenters there are getting sick of this nonsense, it gives me hope for the left.

I didn't get far in the comments because I can't take much Jezebel these days, but they seemed so cautious. Like maybe she shouldn't have chosen this moment...? I'm really not sure Chelsea is the one to blame here...? Please forgive me for daring to criticize the winners of the oppression Olympics but...?

193! 213! YES!!! Thank you!

Don't mind R269, she's new here.

And I don’t mind....you....Miss Ignorant Cunt 270.

Shove it horseface!

Very nicely put 268.

She hates the gays and African Americans. Someone rummaged through her timeline.

Because she made dumb tweets years ago as a tween?

Yes. Stop acting like it was so long ago. Leopards usually don't change their spots.

She’s a stupid fucking homophobic cunt. Fuck her!!!

Since when are Muslims the big victims? Let’s not forget that those toxic fuckers ruined society in America.

they're shithole people. they bring chaos wherever they go.

R278 is a bag of shit.

HI LEEN!

"I went to school at a real estate firm called NYU" around 3:00. He had a couple of other good NYU descriptions

R268, they are indeed cautious, but by Jezebel standards that means they're on Chelsea's side. The commenters there are generally pretty apologetic when disagreeing with any member of an oppressed group. If they were on Dweik's side, they wouldn't be shy about it: there'd be cries of "fuck Chelsea!" and laughter at how hilarious the word "caucastic" is. A few of them are pointing out that this sort of division may well lead to Trump's re-election.

No one feels sorry for trust fund Chelsea or her ski bum husband.

She’s ugly

How on earth could New Zealand by Chelsea's fault? As if anyone pays attention to anything Chelsea says. We never did.

So the ragheads from shithole countries manage to do 9/11 all alone without any assistance or prior knowledge by US government or intelligence agencies?

9/11 was part of the New World Order to bring in the Patriot Act and War on Terror. Jihadists were just the pawns in the game.

Chelsea was weak. She should have stopped saying... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

And Chelsea was weak and loose the raven on the world and the first sin was the sin of intercourse. SAY IT WOMAN!!!

[quote] Chelsea was weak. She should have stopped saying... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

She should have whispered to Leen "Google Vince Foster, bitch."

LMAO, R291.

R289 I don't think she wanted to risk being punched or slapped by the Feral Wild Eyed Screamer. And besides, who expects to be confronted by some crazy cunt at an interfaith memorial.

Ira M tried to make a name for himself last year by trying to derail Gary oldmans by bringing up the domestic violence charges against him and was pissed when the story didn’t go anywhere because Ira forgot to include the fact that oldman was investigated extensively and the allegations were not credible.

Yashar ali was in Chelsea’s corner but did anyone see the pics of him people posted in comparison to the one he uses on his Twitter profile pic. Oof

omigod r290 💕💕💕

Also Jezebel has curbed the articles on how great and empowering the porn industry is for women now that so many stories are coming out about how awful it is.

Also they won’t touch the trans athletes issue. Their sister site deadspin tried to frame the Caster Semenya issue as racism and the article was massively ratioed.
