Chelsea Clinton, the daughter of failed Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton, is facing backlash on social media for latching onto a “leftist media hoax” aimed at smearing Candace Owens of Turning Point USA as a Nazi apologist.
The hoax started this week when BuzzFeed ran a hit piece on Turning Point USA and, more specifically, an event the organization held in London two months ago.
In the piece, the left-wing news purveyor included a quote from Candace that far-left activists such as Clinton, among others, have seized upon and twisted to score points against her.
Look at Clinton’s trash-talking tweet and some of the initial backlash below:
Hitler’s “make Germany great” included more than 400 regulations that stripped German Jews of their ability to work, go to school, vote, own property, seek care in public hospitals & enter “Aryan” zones. All before the Holocaust. In 1943, Germany celebrated being “free of Jews.” https://t.co/HDfUcCuWo9

I know you are trying to make a Trump/Hitler connection. I find it extremely offensive. Open a book and read what Hitler REALLY did. You are offending Jews that lived through the holocaust. You are offending soldiers that freed them. Find a legitimate cause!

Good afternoon Andrew – Ignorance about Hitler’s evil regime must always be confronted. That burden should not fall on Holocaust survivors. There was nothing, using @RealCandaceO own words, “great” about the Third Reich before it began annexing & invading its neighbors. https://t.co/Pq8vdtirly

As usual, Clinton and her cohorts failed to provide any context.
At the event two months ago Owens spoke about how far-leftists have been trying to transform “nationalism” — i.e., the belief that a country has the right to prioritize its interests over those of other nations — into a pejorative representative of racism, bigotry, Nazism, etc.
“I actually don’t have any problems at all with the word ‘nationalism.’ I think that it gets, the definition gets poisoned by elitists that actually want globalism. Globalism is what I don’t want,” she said.
Globalism refers to an ideology that says all nations and peoples should abide by the same rules, cultural norms and standards. It’s an inherently fascist belief system that pines for mandated conformity and obedience, which as the educated know are hallmarks of totalitarianism.
And it just so happens that Hitler was a totalitarian.
“So when you think about, whenever we say ‘nationalism,’ the first thing people thing about, at least in America, is Hitler,” Owens continued. “You know, he was a national socialist, but if Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well, okay fine.”
Her point was that, just like every other totalitarian, including the would-be totalitarians in America, Hitler wasn’t interested in making his country great but rather in something else.
“The problem is … he had dreams outside of Germany,” the 29-year-old conservative activist explained. “He wanted to globalize. He wanted everybody to be German. Everybody to be speaking German. Everybody to look a different way. … To me that’s not nationalism.”
It’s presumed she meant that Hitler wanted everybody to look the same way.
Listen to Owens’ remarks below:
She delivered the remarks as a warning of what the left’s growing statism portends for not only America but the world at large. Note for instance the desire by Democrats in the United States for America to bow at the feet of the wholly corrupted United Nations vis-a-vis climate change.
Better yet, consider Democrat congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s recent release of a plan that calls for using “massive government intervention” to stop the alleged threat of climate change.
Owens’ point — and it was a legitimate one — was that the left’s attempts to link the pro-nationalism rhetoric of U.S. conservatives to Hitler is glaringly disingenuous, given that the deceased dictator’s goals and agenda aligns far more with the agenda of the left rather than the right.
Unfortunately, this point flew right over Clinton’s head, ergo why Owens and numerous others on social media have been busy this weekend slamming her with endless truth bombs.
Look:
Chelsea,
The audacity of this tweet. If you want to discuss evil regimes, look no further than you racist parents.
Haiti still remembers what you stole from them.
Black America remembers that your father locked up more black men than any president in the history of the USA. https://t.co/6OOl4S8OK9— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) February 8, 2019
Evil regimes and the slaughtering of millions was BEST executed by Margaret Sanger, who your RACIST mother idolizes.
When you have an excuse for the 19 million black babies that have been aborted due to her theory of eugenics— tweet at me. https://t.co/6OOl4S8OK9
— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) February 8, 2019
Don’t you ever in your miserable life have the audacity to tweet at someone who educating blacks on the nasty, racist, harmful “evil regime” policies inflicted by your soulless mother and father.
There will be a #BLEXIT. And your trash parents will be alive to witness it. https://t.co/6OOl4S8OK9
— Candace Owens (@RealCandaceO) February 8, 2019
You don’t get to separate yourself from the HORRORS your parents inflicted worldwide through the Clinton Foundation.
You were on payroll.
But wishing you a life full of love, health, and—of course, happiness. #LockHerUp https://t.co/GSeX8NJUPj

Thank you @USATODAY for publishing the FULL quote & context of what I said.
We are all holding to see if @ChelseaClinton will apologize for perpetuating this leftist media hoax.
Similar to #Covington, this hoax has resulted in death threats against me.https://t.co/3VEAkX23nx

You should have read the next two paragraphs before tweeting instead of using a twisted snippet. @RealCandaceO

Apparently Chelsea, you haven’t a clue about the Nazis and the Third Reich. Read about how it all started with the killing of babies, peer pressure, media blitz, the destruction of Jews businesses, verbal and physical assaults. Just like what the democrats are doing now.

Check this..Hitler exterminated human life in a most grotesque way..Partial-birth/Late-Term abortions, rip a human, breathing fetus out of the womb in a most grotesque manner..Hilter hated Jews..Democrats hate babies..#WhatAmIMissing

Hey @chelseaclinton why don’t you want to talk infanticide you call it late term abortion obviously you mother advocated for it. Thank GOD your mother is not the president of the US. You guys think that your mother is still the president and have not still acknowledged that fact
— craig gonsalves (@cgrudeoil) February 9, 2019
They were right. Everything about the modern, radicalized Democrat Party — its support of infanticide, racial quotas, censorship, socialism, etc., reeks of the same pernicious totalitarianism that marked the oppressive rule of Adolf Hitler, a man whom Owens tried to point out was also a socialist.
