Moonbattery

Moonbattery.com is a blog that alleges that it's keeping an eye on the American far-left. In reality, it's up there as one of the most despicable and horrifying sites in the wingnutsphere:
*Blatant homophobia (gays are commonly referred to as "perverts") and rants about the "gay agenda" trying to destroy Christianity.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33342http://moonbattery.com/?p=33324
*Global warming denialism.http://moonbattery.com/?p=32729
*Showing sympathy for white supremacist conspiracy theories and racist views, such as giving shout-outs to the race war conspiracy theorists,http://moonbattery.com/?p=12123 claiming that liberals are trying to get African-Americans to kill white people, wondering why people continue to "persecute" George Zimmerman, and declaring "The welfare state produces Trayvon Martins by the millions" (though this doesn't keep them from admiring black conservatives). They call Trayvon Martin "Saint Skittles" and their support of George Zimmerman goes beyond simply thinking he should be acquitted and right into borderline hero worship. Pointing out their racist dog whistles is just political correctness gone mad in their eyes.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33328They seriously wonder why people think they're racist Their post on "Ghetto Booty" drops the subtlety in favor of more overt racism.Read the comments if you want to feel even worse
*Declaring food aid to be a slippery slope to communism while pushing Allen West's bullshit that there are more Americans receiving food aid than there are Americans working in the private sector.http://moonbattery.com/?p=32868Do these people research ANYTHING?
*Xenophobia and support for populist protectionism, in true Lou Dobbs style.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33301
*Abuse of Godwin's law.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33236
*Calling Barack Obama racist and claiming that he was visited by Malik Zulu Shabazz in the White House.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33218http://mediamatters.org/blog/2011/10/03/national-review-lies-its-way-through-the-new-bl/182127
*Hating Europe and citing the Daily Mail to push some urban myth about animal brothels in Germany.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33090A German paper says the animal brothels are more of a myth than anything
*Believing Barack Obama is trying to destroy Christianity and is a foreigner.http://moonbattery.com/?p=33070http://moonbattery.com/?p=23336
*Thinking schools are part of the liberal agenda.http://moonbattery.com/?p=31218
*Being aggravated when liberals play the "race card" though they themselves believe that blacks didn't vote for Mitt Romney because blacks are racist. No, really.We're still dead serious
You get the idea — it's another manifestation of the wingnut persecution complex. The irony that they are much further from the political center than many of the people they call "moonbats" and "far-left" seems to elude them.
The site is owned by Dave Blount, who is so insane that his extreme right screeds occasionally pop up on FSTDT.
Interestingly, if you check out Moonbattery on a few site tracking websites, you'll see that South Africa has its second-largest viewership after the United States. This is, of course, a coincidence.
The comments section is not fond of us, as you can see:
Also, Google is "biased", because we, Media Bias/Fact Check, and Media Matters appeared on the top Google results for Moonbattery.com and American Thinker.https://moonbattery.com/google-search-results-now-feature-propaganda-undermining-conservative-news-sources/ So evil.
