Pro-China and pro-Iran? Oh my fur and whiskers! Conservative media have taken to cancel culture with gusto

Daily Telegraph:

Southbank chief in fresh row over ‘anti-Semitic’ conspiracy theory

Misan Harriman reposted claim that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are ‘selling off Albanian coastline to Jewish billionaires’

The chairman of the Southbank Centre is facing fresh calls to resign after sharing an allegedly “anti-Semitic conspiracy theory” on social media.

Misan Harriman used Instagram to repost a claim that Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner, who are Jewish, were “selling off the Albanian coastline to Jewish billionaires and [an] Israeli military project”.

Donald Trump’s daughter and son-in-law are building high-end luxury resorts in the country, with major investment from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

The post shared by Mr Harriman was from a social media account called geopolitics._.7889 which has posted anti-Semitic, pro-Russia, pro-China and pro-Iran content.

If anyone white spoke like this man the police would turn up in numbers. The Government would be outraged and charges would be fast tracked through court so an example was made as to what happens to anyone inciting racial hatred in this Country! Obviously because this man is black it’s not a crime! The two tier system isn’t a conspiracy. It’s a FACT!

Meanwhile the Guardian supports Mr Harriman because he's Nigerian.

Recently an unpleasant man called actress Helen Mirren a Zionist bitch when he saw her in the street. She's a Catholic from my home town not Jewish but the English papers ran it on their front pages for days - and that included the left wing Metro. Had she been Jewish the man might have been arrested and put in goal.


Cancel culture is yet another baleful thing America has given the world, like war in Ukraine, illegal wars in the Middle East and elsewhere, murders and piracy but at least Americans have free speech and don't get arrested for opinions.

Google's AI Gemini links to the Telegraph article and says:

The Instagram account geopolitics._.7889 is a digital media page that has faced scrutiny for promoting anti-Semitic tropes and geopolitical conspiracy theories. The page routinely posts material that critics and major publications flag as prejudiced and inflammatory. [1]

Key controversies and themes associated with the account include:

• Conspiracy Theories: The page has promoted well-known anti-Semitic tropes, such as claiming that Jewish billionaires dictate international land grabs or are involved in foreign policy control. [1]
• Global Intrigue Narratives: Content from the account frequently targets specific geopolitical entities, having previously posted material equating Israel with Nazi Germany and spreading unverified claims that the CIA operates globally to manipulate Islamist terror groups and orchestrate attacks

The account complained of is on Instagram and I loved this post from it, which is very pro-Iran and very funny because very true.
