You asked for another example. If I give another, as there are more in the article, will you keep upping it? I just don't anyone like using the markets for politics and don't see why it is allowed for the groups to advertise, protest or dox at them, at all.

Cauliflower (being a white vegetable) is racist.

however, are there any black or brown vegetables instead? No, if a vegetable turns brown, its rotten.

Next they will claim all vegetables are racist because they turn brown and are rotten.

Wait.. mushrooms are gray/brown, maybe those are the only woke vegetable we should eat.

haha WOKE VEGETABLES!

this is getting completely stupid beyond pale to inject politics in everything we do in our daily lives. this is tupid. we have politics in sports, farmers markets, shopping centers, different types of food, even different kinds of places to go, like disneyland and other fun parks.



this has to stop people

lets leave the politics where it belongs, on forums like this, and in the actual political arena.

I don't like it either, but if their policy is let people hand out flyers on the grounds where the farmer's markets are held, they have to allow all flyers.

Chicago is a liberal city. Is this really an issue? In my mind, it's one isolated nut. Bloomington is also a liberal, university town - although there are supposedly KKK in small southern Indiana towns.

I just cannot get up in arms about some isolated instances and jump on the 'farmer's markets are filled with white supremacists' bandwagon. I think the whole premise for the piece is flawed.

It doesn't. That's the point. It's another leftist article trying to convince people that there's an epidemic of racism when there really isn't. But I can't figure out what point you're trying to make.

Farmers’ Markets Have New Unwelcome Guests: Fascists

"In public they sell organic vegetables. In private they join white supremacist groups. Now activists are pushing back."
Isn't the entire organic/farmer's market movement racist because there aren't enough minorities involved? Didn't AOC claim cauliflower is also racist?

Cauliflower is a known racist. This was a hot topic with the SJW crowd over past month or so.

I wouldn't want to do business with someone who is a white supremacist.

Here in my community I can guarantee you my fave at the farmers' market is not a white supremacist.

Why do socialists/leftists HATE farmers so much? Soviet Union, China, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Modern South Africa all have/had it out for their farmers. It’s definitely a trend.
