Mensch, Not "Mensch"
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Former UK Conservative Party MP Louise Mensch went haywire on twitter attacking Greece via Twitter on Wednesday, calling the country "racist," along with a common Saxon expletive.
Apparently Mensch, was irked by a recent poll posted by the Anti-Defamation League, which polled anti-semitism in Greece and other countries. The poll which was downplayed as subjective and not very accurate even by the ADL and Jewish media was apparently gleamed over by Mensch, who quit Parliament in 2012 to pursue her career as an author.
The self-styled feminist fashion blogger, articulately wrote: "F*** you, Greece. Nasty things happening to nasty people. 69% of country are racists."
The survey, which was published last month, indicated that 69 percent of Greeks "harbor anti-semitic attitudes."
Mensch also lashed out at Twitter users who noted that her comments could also be construed as racist and that the poll questions may have been skewed, calling one person a "massive idiot" and another a "lazy cow."
In 2012, Mensch launched a rival to Twitter called Menshn but it closed a year later.
