Owens: anti-Semite much? |
Holocaust denier and former person with a political pundit career, Candace Owens, is a persona non grata in the land down-under.
Her self-inflicted clusterfrack hit rock bottom Sunday when Australian officials said that her anti-Semitic bile was too toxic for their country. "Australia’s national interest is best served when Candace Owens is somewhere else," said Immigration Minister Tony Burke.
“From downplaying the impact of the Holocaust with comments about German SS officer Josef Mengele through to claims that Muslims started slavery, Candace Owens has the capacity to incite discord in almost every direction,” Burke announced.
Owens was fired from conservative outlet The Daily Wire in March following a series of antisemitic comments and tropes.
She was planning to do an Australian speaking tour with tickets selling for $100 but alas, it ain't gonna happen.
“A known peddler of dangerous rhetoric against Jews and other groups, and unapologetic Holocaust denier, is a victory for the millions of Jewish souls and millions of others whose memory she so shamelessly desecrated,” the ADC posted on X.
“This is more than just a visa being revoked. This is a tribute to every single survivor who bore witness to the horrors of Auschwitz.”
Candace Owens seems to be in a downward spiral in the commode of life and her public career is likely over, but for decent, fair-minded people, that's a good thing.

Sine August, Jewish groups had been campaigning for Owens' visa cancellation, when Burke first indicated he would block her entry, telling media outlets: “Tickets to these events are selling for $100. I hope she has a good refunds policy.”
And the amazing thing is that her visa cancellation received rare bipartisan support with Opposition immigration spokesman Dan Tehan backing the move to prevent "hateful messages."
Owens once suggested that there was a systematic effort by Israel to persecute Germans after the Holocaust. After all, what did they do so wrong back then?
She was also criticized for describing Nazi lunatic doctor Josef Mengele's experiments on Auschwitz [Jewish] prisoners as "bizarre propaganda," then claimed Israel was founded by a "cult."
In a moronic move, Owens defended Kanye West's Jew-hatred rhetoric about Jewish influence in media and accusing "secret Jewish gangs" controlling Hollywood. This led the Anti-Defamation Commission (ADC) to applaud Australia's decision to ban Owens from a visa.
