      Condemn Farrakhan? Sure, happy to. Farrakhan is a fucking asshole: he's an anti-Semitic, homophobic, misogynist,grifter who was almost certainly complicit in the murder of Malcolm X. Thankfully, he's also a figure with a small & dwindling following.

      I only ever hear of Farrakhan when right wingers are bringing him up for whataboutism. Well, right wingers and Maggie Haberman.

      He showed up at a funeral, you say? How is that scandalous? And I literally had to google Linda Sarsour. I don't know but I agree--this one random person who doesn't hold office who most people haven't heard of should condemn him, though I don't think it will make the papers.

      All of the leaders of The Women's March...you have heard of The Women's March, right?...have called him "the GOAT", "honorable", friend, and mentor. They are a progressive and left wing org that has disenfranchised Jews and the LGBTQ community because of Farrakhan.pic.twitter.com/vF93alqtrN

      As a Jewish Dem in the LGBTQ community, I find Farrakhan highly problematic. Just bc you don't know him doesn't mean he hasn't been involved in American politics. Use your search engine of choice to do look at his connections to members of the Black Congressional Caucus.

      Farrakhan pretty explicitly rejects black politicians as sell outs (and he's repeatedly praised Trump).This thread is informed and accurate https://twitter.com/goldietaylor/status/1058560194349797376 …
