Terrible Ted Nugent: Indian Protestors Unclean Vermin and Communists
Read Time:55 Second
Ted Nugent is a racist and likely one of the most despicable people on the planet, along with most of the NRA hierarchy, and lots of Republican politicians. The Native Americans realized this and a number of his shows were cancelled because of his long history of racist remarks.
On Friday Nugent called in to Glenn Beck’s program to defend himself. Nugent told Beck that in fact “my lifestyle as a white guy — though I’m hard to accept that designation — is more in the Indian tradition than many of the Indians themselves.”
In response to reports that he called protesters at one of his recent shows “unclean vermin,” Nugent told Beck, “I have a spiritual blood-brother relationship with these Indians and then the left literally creates the nastiest, hateful lie they can, put quotes around words attributed to me, Glenn, claiming that I called my red brothers ‘unclean vermin,’ which I never said in my life. They created that out of whole cloth.”
Later in the interview, Nugent acknowledged that he had called the protestors “unclean vermin” but that they were “communists.”

Like most Rethugnicans, Nugent has no idea about “communist”. It’s simply the worst insult he can think of. To him, it’s on the same level as “gay.”
FYI Nugget, There hasn’t be a real communist government anywhere except for a few months after the 1917 Russian revolution. The places calling themselves communist and socialist were actually totalitarian regimes, often brutal dictatorships, using the labels to conceal what they were really doing.
To be clear, I am not a “communist” and don’t see it as even a possibility for a real society. It ignores too many facets of the human nature and is far too easy to slip into one of those totalitarian governments.
Wonder what he’d say if someone told him his ancestors pinched their country from the Indians, murdering thousands of them as they did it?
The only thing here that makes anyone “vermin” seems to be disagreeing with Nugent. He is beneath contempt and unworthy of the effort it takes to dislike him.
