Antisemitism Surges Within Conservative Movement, Ezra Levant Warns

Ezra Levant examines the alarming rise of antisemitic rhetoric within America’s conservative sphere, highlighting figures like Nick Fuentes, a TikTok-based provocateur linked to neo-Nazi ideologies. Fuentes, who praises Stalin and denounces Jews and Black people, recently engaged in a controversial interview with Tucker Carlson, whose apparent leniency toward Fuentes has raised concerns. Levant critiques Carlson’s shifting alliances, noting his unexpected collaboration with Fuentes despite earlier sharp critiques of figures like Ted Cruz.

The discussion also addresses J.D. Vance’s remarks at a Turning Point USA event, where Levant interpreted Vance’s comments on his wife’s religious choices as potentially compromising conservative values. Levant questions Vance on whether Jews or Judaism persecute Christians, if Israel threatens Christianity in the Middle East, and if he believes Israel exerts undue influence over U.S. presidents.

Levant underscores that antisemitism, as defined by Harvey Rudiger, transcends mere hatred or economic motives, framing it as a belief that Jewish people obstruct spiritual progress. He urges vigilance against radical factions within the conservative movement, warning of their potential to reshape ideological landscapes.
