A long thread on how an obsessive & violent antisemite & Holocaust denier has been embraced by the international “community of the good.”
Sarah Wilkinson has a history of Holocaust denial & anti-Jewish hatred dating back (in documented examples) to around 2015.
Since then she has produced a long trail of written hate and abuse. See here for a good summary. https://t.co/9Ajkt4wFbm

But McDonnell is not alone.
Neo-Nazi Sarah Wilkinson is supported and encouraged by thousands of those on the Left who consider themselves “anti-racists”.
Some of the names you are going to see here may shock you. Others will not.
Does it mean they are all neo-Nazi’s, antisemites and Holocaust deniers too? No, of course not.
But for most, they will simply either have failed to notice the hate that pours from her daily or else they noticed & thought “yes, that’s how I see the world too”.
First up Yasmine Dar. Labour Party NEC member & former Head of Disputes who was of course tasked with investigating anti-Jewish racism. @Yasmine_Dar
1st person to yell "horseshoes" wins a stale bagel.
@akalamusic follows a British neo-Nazi.
Yes, @DalrympleWill follows a British neo-Nazi.
who saw Zionist outposts everywhere (ok, Birmingham) also follows our neo-Nazi. She's now an editor at @redpepper apparently.
Do many other of their editors follow neo-Nazis?
Amazingly, no. Must have cleaned up shop just a little.
But don't worry. If he was still a Lab MP then Jeremy would find that the vice-Chair (Campaigns) of his Islington North CLP @jackson_caines does follow a neo-Nazi.
Hard to resist really. Colour me shocked that @HeikeHaensel
who is vice-Chair of the Left group in the German parliament follows a neo-Nazi.
Hatred without borders, innit?
We wouldn't find that the ICRC Head of Comms @AIsyukICRC follows a neo-Nazi, would we?
Oh, Anastasia.
But Bonnie also follows our neo-Nazi.
Bonnie needs to ask herself why that is.
Rachel is a long time friend of @OwenJones84 Jeremy & everyone else who helped subject British Jews to 5 years of hate.
Rachel follows a neo-Nazi ("just the 1?" you ask)
H/T for this view of Wilkinson's followers @MatzoBalling
Next, we turn again to the US.
Where activist @lsarsour just happens to follow a British neo-Nazi. As you do. Say hi to Bernie's wife for us, Linda!
Again, H/T @MatzoBalling
First up is @TedPowe23813497 - Ted is an @NEUnion rep & Lab Cllr candidate in Bristol. He's a teacher, but he also follows our neo-Nazi.
Could do better, Ted. Must try harder.
I'm sure she does great work when she's not busy supporting the toxic JVL, but Penny also follows a neo-Nazi.
General toxic "historian" Louise Raw.
Better include her i guess.
@LouiseRawAuthor follows a neo-Nazi.
Yawns.

So, as the #MegaMillions jackpot reaches a record $1.6B and #Powerball reaches $620M, here's my advice about how to spend the money in a way that will truly set you, your children and their kids up for life.
Ready?
Create a private foundation and give it all away. 1/
Let's stipulate first that lottery winners often have a hard time. Being publicly identified makes you a target for "friends" and "family" who want your money, as well as for non-family grifters and con men. 2/
The stress can be damaging, even deadly, and Uncle Sam takes his huge cut. Plus, having a big pool of disposable income can be irresistible to people not accustomed to managing wealth. https://t.co/fiHsuJyZwz 3/
Meanwhile, the private foundation is as close as we come to Downton Abbey and the landed aristocracy in this country. It's a largely untaxed pot of money that grows significantly over time, and those who control them tend to entrench their own privileges and those of their kin. 4
Here's how it works for a big lotto winner:
1. Win the prize.
2. Announce that you are donating it to the YOUR NAME HERE Family Foundation.
3. Receive massive plaudits in the press. You will be a folk hero for this decision.
4. Appoint only trusted friends/family to board. 5/

Imagine if Christians actually had to live according to their Bibles.
Imagine if Christians actually sacrificed themselves for the good of those they considered their enemies, with no thought of any recompense or reward, but only to honor the essential humanity of all people.
Imagine if Christians sold all their possessions and gave it to the poor.
Imagine if they relentlessly stood up for the widow, the orphan, and the foreigner.
Imagine if they worshipped a God whose response to political power was to reject it.
Or cancelled all debt owed them?
Imagine if the primary orientation of Christians was what others needed, not what they deserved.
Imagine Christians with no interest in protecting what they had.
Imagine Christians who made room for other beliefs, and honored the truths they found there.
Imagine Christians who saved their forgiveness and mercy for others, rather than saving it for themselves.
Whose empathy went first to the abused, not the abuser.
Who didn't see tax as theft; who didn't need to control distribution of public good to the deserving.
