Right wing minister claims being trans is a Jewish plot to make humanity androgynous

Every once in a while along comes proof that crackpots are ecumenical in their hatred. White supremacists are also homophobes, and birthers are also Islamophobes (like the president).

The latest example comes from minister Rick Wiles, but this time there’s a novel twist. RightWingWatch reports that Wiles hosted and agreed with guests who managed to combine anti-transgender hatred with anti-Semitism. Their claim: transgenderism is a “Zionist plot” meant to destroy humanity as we know it.

On a recent program on his TruNews radio program, Wiles showcased Steve and Jana Ben-Nun, Messianic Jews who apparently traffic in the same kind of nuttiness that Wiles favors. Messianic Jews believe that Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, and that salvation comes only from accepting him as your savior. As such, their movement has a lot more in common with the precepts of evangelical Christianity than of Judaism, with the bigotry to match.

That might explain the Ben-Nuns’ willingness to engage in unvarnished anti-Semitism, using hateful stereotypes against Jews. “They want to get Gentile riches, and they want to rule the Gentiles,” Jana Ben-Nun told Wiles. “They don’t consider Gentiles [to be] fully human beings.”

Could the Presidential Medal of Freedom be far behind?

It is amazingly easy to find just about any conspiracy theory and see someone tie it to the Jews. Though heavily one-sided (leaning to the right), there are those on the left who also engage in this bullshit. The dog-whistles are becoming more useful for a new breed of anti-Semite.

"Is there any thing nefarious or evil that does not have a Jew involved?" or something like that.

It's an age old European tradition, anti-Semitism. The Nazis didn't start it, they just tried to perfect it.

Aka the FULCW spectrum. Leading indicators include obsession with all toilet functions, and vehement denial of any science contradicting their particular pathology.
