In response to the College Republicans, an organization representative of Republicans on college and university campuses, that wished its followers on Twitter a happy Kwanzaa, the Georgia Republican Congressional firebrand, told them to stop the pandering bullsh*t.
“Wishing you a happy and prosperous Kwanza!” the group posted.
Greene called out the post as “pandering.”
Stop.
It’s a fake religion created by a psychopath.
You aren’t bringing in new voters, you are turning them away.
People are tired of pandering and BS. https://t.co/NrhE6O6BG5— Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 (@mtgreenee) December 26, 2021
“Stop,” the Congresswoman replied in a tweet. “It’s a fake religion created by a psychopath. You aren’t bringing in new voters, you are turning them away. People are tired of pandering and BS.”
Kwanzaa is not a religion but rather an annual celebration of African American culture, first celebrated in 1966.
It lasts from Dec. 26 to Jan. 1, and the celebration is derived from pan-African harvest festival traditions.
The “psychopath” Greene referred to is Maulana Karenga, the creator of Kwanzaa.
Karenga considers himself a “political prisoner” because he was sentenced to prison on counts of felony assault and false imprisonment in 1971.
One of the supposed victims detailed how Karenga and others tortured her in a report.
She said they stripped her of her clothes, beat her with an electrical cord, and forced water down her throat with a hose.
Thank you, Representative Greene. Set the record straight, particularly, College Republicans, knock off the foolish pandering.
You don’t make friends that way, and, in fact, you turn people away. But don’t be ashamed of your youthful ignorance. Rather, learn from it and move forward. And remember, the opposition doesn’t play nice. So, please, stop trying to be nice.
Final thought, a question: Whatever happened to Festivus and the airing of grievances?
Let’s raise the required aluminum pole, Def-Con News readers, and air some damn grievances. The year is nearly complete. Not much time left to burn.
