His attitude to disabled people is no worse than that of our current Conservative government, but it is still bad.<br /><br />While attacking Tim Saunders on the 'Tim of the South' site, Jac said 'I hate Socialism.' He also claimed to hate those Welsh ntionalists for whom Labour is their next favourite party.<br /><br />He supports racially preferential allocation of housing. If he attacks corruption from English but not Welsh sources,that appears to be implicitly racist. His allusions to 'Israeli crooks' are disturbing. It's not that Israeli crooks don't exist, but it's probably an outbreak of anti-Semitism in this case.<br /><br />Note that he objects to the proscription of certain words -racist words I suppose -as an attack on freedom of speech but famously deletes comments that disagree with him.<br /><br />Let me finish by saying that een his 'investigatie' pieces are of no value as they are not based on evidence but on paranoia. While rubbishing Tim Saunders, he specifically denied that he had to adduce evidence. He thought the insistence on evidence a 'silly' personal quirk of Tim'. We must conclude that Jac's site has no merit, and could be dangerous.

I don...Touchy lot you right-wingers aren't you? I don't think there was any attempt to directly accuse Jac of any of the things you mention, but merely point out that those things are the stock in trade of those who subscribe to the use of 'Cultural Marxism' as a snarl word. Jac may, or may not use such language, but it remains that by using the label of Cultural Marxism as a vehicle Jac has put himself on the firing line as someone sympathetic at least to the kind of language used by the far right conspiracy theory crackpots.<br /><br />Jac may well condemn the likes of Tommy Robinson, as he represents the English extreme right, but I do sometimes wonder if Jac would condemn someone engaged in similar behaviour on the exteremes of the Welsh right, or merely stay conveniently silent?<br /><br />This post, correctly in my opinion, critcises Jac's use of the term,and I'm neither alarmed, or surprised that Jac has written such a post, as it has been on the cards for a while. It's also very bad timing, what with the immanent launch of Ein Gwlad, it's really going to look great that one of the prime movers and shakers in that movement allies himself with the assorted nutjobs of the right.<br /><br />Jac has been crassly stupid in using this term but also seemingly also adopting the rhetoric of the far right.<br /><br />Had Jac not dressed his article in the terms of the far right, no-one would have seen anything more untoward than it being anything other than Jac's usual, misplaced and myopic, tilt at the left in general. I used to view Jac as something of a rather curmudgeonly pensioner somewhere on the slightly deranged right, but this latest post of his, perhaps this needs to be reconsidered.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2133809191630290599.post-6692410350520140932018-08-15T21:15:32.765+01:002018-08-15T21:15:32.765+01:00I count myself as an allies of Jac, and I fail to ...I count myself as an allies of Jac, and I fail to see any evidence of “racist, homophobic and sexist language” in what he writes on his blog. If you do, please point it out. The only recent examples I’ve seen of such language of late has been from Carolyn Harris MP (Labour), Gareth Bennet AM (Ukip) and Helen Mary Jones AM (Plaid Cymru). To make a sweeping statement to try to connect Jac’s views with Rees-Mogg and Boris Johnson is just stupidity on your part. As for your comparison to Tommy Robinson (EDL) I ask you to withdraw that comment. Jac has on a number of occasions exposed such creatures who have chosen to hide or have been moved to Wales by the criminal justice system. You should apoligise.<br />Brychannoreply@blogger.com
