Moonbats Lay Siege to Churchill-Themed Cafe
America isn’t the only country whose greatest heroes are denounced and defiled as progressives frog-march them toward the Memory Hole. In Britain, not even Winston Churchill is off limits:
Halimo Hussein, 24, stormed the Blighty UK cafe in Finsbury Park, north London, and urged customers to boycott it for ‘colonialism’ and chanted ‘Churchill was racist’.
The politics student, who is the co-president of Equality and Liberation at SOAS, University of London, later asked the owner to apologise to the local community.
Imagine what would happen to Ms. Hussein if there had been no Churchill, and she led a mob of moonbats into a cafe in Nazi-occupied Britain to denounce Adolf Hitler.
This apparent attempt to drive off his customers hasn’t been the only headache for owner Chris Evans, who was…
…forced to remove a giant mural of Churchill after it was daubed with graffiti which branded the former prime minister ‘scum’ and ‘imperialist’.
Mr Evans said: ‘If you cannot celebrate Britain and great Britons you are just erasing history. And if you cannot celebrate Churchill, you cannot celebrate anyone.’
Erasing history is the point. As for celebrating anyone, that is not the purpose of progressivism, despite the villains it lionizes (e.g., Che Guevara, Karl Marx, Nelson Mandela). It is a wrecking ball, useful only for destroying.
Halimo Hussein’s presence in the U.K. is a gift from Somalia. It will surprise no one to learn that she is “an avid Labour supporter and Jeremy Corbyn fan.” Along the same lines, she backs the #RobThisEngland movement, which is “committed to not paying for services and goods.”
