Local TV news stations controlled by the conservative Sinclair
Broadcast Group recently began airing a “special program” hosted by
former Trump aide and current Fox News contributor Sebastian Gorka
called "Inside Socialism." In the 30-minute show — which appears to be
the first episode in a multipart series — Gorka tells the audience he
will “take an in-depth look at the appeal of a system that promises
equality to all and what happens when the initial enthusiasm gives way
to a sobering reality.”
The program kicks off with stylized footage of a hammer and sickle
being forged in flames and then clips of speeches by Democratic
socialists Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Virginia state Del. Lee Carter,
and New York Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, much of it set to
ominous music.
Damn, it's finally beginning. They must be scared from everything going on as of late...
This story is 2 weeks old and I only learned about it because I saw the special while flipping through my local stations. The Salon article is the only nationwide source I found on it.
Sinclair will probably be forced to divest some when the next Democrat FCC chairman takes office.
Well, I suppose that means people just need to be made aware of what is going on, then.
....Penn?
Literally all the jobs in my field in any area I want to live in are Sinclair. Fuck my lifeee

Red Scare 2: Check your boots for hiding commies boogaloo.
Hell even the Red Scare had at least an excuse to exist with the USSR breathing down our necks, this is just "DON'T DISENT"
Sinclair needs to die in a fire so hard, people smell the ashes for decades afterwards. Fuck conservative propaganda and fuck all-encompassing media conglomerates.
So, a Trump agent (with Russian money under the hood) with unfortunately-fascistic tendencies is warning against socialism.
Now that's some tyrannical Russian-type style bullshit right there.

Is there any proof of him being a Nazi beyond him a medal he got from his father? According to a quick background check on Wiki things look pretty up-and-up there. The medal entered his family in 1979 through his father, who was given it by a Hungarian exile for his efforts leading a resistance to dictatorship by pro-Democracy group in Hungary. So it seems like a Hungarian exile, regardless of his politics, handed him a medal that he had on hand to show appreciation for his efforts against a communist dictatorship, and Gorka wears it in remembrance of his father.
People who knew him deny he's an anti-semite and he himself called out the alt-right "a new label for nationalist bigots". He's a Conservative who wore a medal that was originally given out at the direction of Nazis, but that does not make him a Nazi, especially since the medal is has gone through at least 2 people since it left Nazi hands.
The organization was disbanded after WW2. due to it's strong anti-semtic ties and Hitler sympathizers. Accepting and presenting the medal despite this shows his values pretty clearly.
Yeah, but a Historian cited in the article says there were divisions in the order even during WW2 and some recipients were killed fighting the Nazis. And his isn't even from WW2, it's second-hand unofficial award from the late 70's because the man wanted Democracy in Soviet Hungary. You can play to the origins all you want, but in the man's own eyes that medal is far removed from World War II.
