David Volodzko criticized Lenin in ‘The Seattle Times.’ Now he is without a job. A story of profound intolerance in our country’s most “tolerant” city.
I have been targeted by tankies and neo-Nazis on Twitter before.
There it is
It was Lenin who said that a lie told often enough becomes the truth.
There is not a single record of this.
I am now jobless, living in downtown Seattle, which is costly, and unable to help support my family, including my baby daughter. We can no longer afford our apartment, but neither can we afford the fee to break our lease.
Gotta feel bad for the family but all he had to do was not drag in Hitler for comparison. As the grandson of a “Nazi killer” whose family was “hunted by Nazis” I thought it would have been clear. You can extol someone’s vices without drawing comparisons with Hitler. Every liberal does this. He could have just said “Lenin killed 100 million babies” and leave it at that. Instead he put his ineptitude on full display. If not for the Hitler comparison he should have been fired for being a terrible journalist anyway. But that also goes for most of the journalists these days.

But should be be punished for doubling down on such a terrible take?
(PS Yes.)
I know a guy who’s thoughts on this subject you would probably find interesting if you hadn’t already compared him to Hitler.
Oh the irony, the sweet irony.
the real tragedy is that he has a child, it’s already bad enough that she’ll grow up exposed to his brain worms
