Well, it seems there actually is a line which cannot be crossed. At least, there is for one conservative group.

A conservative group cut ties with right-wing columnist Michelle Malkin on Sunday over her support for an anti-Semitic internet personality, ramping up a growing conservative civil war centered on college campuses.

Malkin’s firing from Young America’s Foundation, whose speakers bureau had booked Malkin for speeches across the country for the past 17 years, marks the latest battle between supporters of Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes and more establishment conservative figures.
Conservative Group YAF Fires Michelle Malkin Over Support for Holocaust Denier

Of course, most people never heard of YAF (I know I haven't). So, that begs the question. Will Fox, Town Hall and Hot Air fire her, as well, or will they continue to keep a Holocaust Denier onboard?

My guess is the latter. But, this is a step in the Right direction.

This guilt by association (any partial agreement?) part of the "cancel culture" is, IMHO, ridiculous. Should all Obama supporters also be assumed to have supported Obama's "the police acted stupidly" assertion or his ties to Rev. Wright's rantings?

If all Obama did was badmouth police and idolize Rev. Wright, his supporters would be suspected of doing the same. All Nick Fuentes seems to talk about is antisemitic and white supremacist ideas.

From the OP link:
Among other things, Fuentes marched in the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, and praised what he called a “tidal wave of white identity” after the rally. Fuentes has also used his internet video show, America First, to deny the Holocaust, and claimed that segregation was “better.”

Here is more of the stuff he says:

This isn't about guilt by association.

Malkin has not just "partially agreed" with this anti-Semite, she's been actively defending and promoting him.

I think Holocaust denial is a big deal, and we shouldn’t accept it going mainstream in American culture

She came out and defended the guy pretty harshly. I haven't heard of him or anything but the facts are the facts.
the YAF is an important cause for youth in fighting back leftist indoctrination of our youth.

People like Ben Shapiro and a few others lead the way in these talks to give a boost to conservative idea's and standards.
they can't have someone like Malchin out there supporting an extremist.

it would hurt the message they are trying to make.

it is bad enough that leftist call ben shapiro a white nationalist when he was the number 1 target of white nationalism in the US.
then again asking the left to use a bit of logic and reason is too much.

she has gone off her rocker the past few years.

Yeah, this is going beyond "guilt by association." She's openly defending white nationalists and thugs like Fuentes, the Proud Boys, groypers, Stephen Miller etc.

Fuentes isn't a typical conservative. He's a white supremacist who thinks the 1st Amendment doesn't apply to Muslims, denies the Holocaust, wants to (literally) hang the people who run CNN, the list goes on.

Malkin is not much better. She is in favor of mass detention (e.g. Japanese during WWII, Muslims during the endless War on Terror); she's fine with torture; she's associated with VDARE.... She should have been kicked to the curb a long time ago.

She also got fired from the EIEIO - another conservative organization. (I made it up, but who cares as long as it makes the news! ).

So, are you saying you support holocaust denial?

Never heard of a Jewish White Nationalist?

May I introduce you to Stephen Miller...

Stephen Miller emails show he is a 'champion of white nationalism'

The police did act improperly and Rev Wright is OK in my book. Maybe you just didn't like hearing about "chickens coming home to roost."

Better a preacher says that than, "Send me $30,000 and God will make you rich," like Trump's spiritual advisor, Paula Con Artist White.

Oh wait...she's white. :roll:

No, in this case, she made full-throated defenses of this Holocaust-denying douchenozzle and his group, calling him a "New Right leader" and his group "patriots."

Among the videos made by this assclown was one in which he said Jim Crow-era segregation was "better for us, better for them, better for everybody" (to which I won't link).

That's who Malkin affirmatively endorsed, not simply standing up for free speech. So, Malkin can get bent.

Agree, and we also shouldn't accept the Left calling everything the Holocaust, Hitler and Nazi. Both are extremely offensive.

Conservatives love her because she's an Asian American that speaks glowingly about WWII Japanese internment.

She's nothing but a right-wing racist troll. She's in the same camp as Ann Coulter and Bill (pass me the loufa) O'Reilly.

I think the vast majority of Obama supporters agree that "the police acted stupidly" when arresting a man for breaking into his own home.

To be honest I don't know enough about Malkin's association with the Holocaust denier. I do agree that guilt by association is wrong.
 
She's big on supporting controversial characters.

Including a rape cop.

I don't know much about it from a personal standpoint, but I have hard that there is Jewish Holocaust revisionism. It's a Jewish Nationalism philosophy where they want to write out the non Jewish people who saved Jews, fought with them in partisan groups, etc. The Polish Underground Army has been completely wiped out of these versions of history.

There are hard Right Jews who are no better than any of the other hard Right assholes in this world. I’ll agree to that.
