I heard part of an interview with him on NPR over the weekend promoting this book. During the interview he essentially says that anyone who opposes Israel's actions in Gaza is antisemitic.

So there are plenty of reasons to be pissed at him besides his capitulation on that bill.

Schumer is an antisemite. Only an antisemite conflates Zionism with Judaism.

Important update - he "postponed" this tour. (Here's a Lemmy-based link about it.)

Now, the article uses the word "postpone." But we all know that's just a coward's way of saying something is "cancelled." Which is why it perfectly tracks for Schumer and I'd be willing to bet he never actually goes on this tour at all.

It made my day when I heard the coward cancelled his shitty pr tour for getting more money from rich donors.

Can you imagine actually wanting to BUY Chuck Shumers book because you were curious to read it lol?

This republican in democrat clothing needs someone in his face. Scream at him once for me if he comes to your area.

FILTHY NAZI COLLABORATOR

That is the phrase Schumer needs to hear every single time he appears in public, for the rest of his miserable life. Fucking collaborator.

I've already recruited one person to show up with me. Four more invited and pending response. He'll not have a pleasant appearance here.

Let me guess: it's one of those books that nobody reads but that somehow end up being bestsellers anyway?

Political organizations buy them by the pallet full and they then end up in dollar store bookshelves years later.

Or are give away as party favors or "thank you" gifts or donated or anything they can think of.

That reminds me of a scene in Archer. One of the characters temporarily decides to become a country music star. A foreign dictator becomes obsessed with her. On the day her album drops, she happens to be in that dictator's country. Instantly, the album went platinum. How?

Cut to a scene where pallets and pallets of her album are being unloaded - all purchased by that dictator.

lol the Bay Area is going to fuck him up, guaranteed.

...and it's canceled.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 16 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Incoming Monday morning announcement: This week's venues have been postponed or cancelled due to "unforseen circumstances, weather, or another barely almost believable lie we can attach to it instead of just admitting that we had indeed fucked up."

He cited protest expectations.

Anyone that can go should go tell him what a bitch he is. Can’t believe there’s actually some people out there that would attend this on their own time and enjoy it…
