I recently participated in a documentary series that aired in France and Germany on public broadcasting networks. My role was to represent the young conservative voice and the movement happening within Generation Z in our country to embrace conservative ideas. It was so much fun, and I had a blast filming with the very kind and gracious crew and telling my story.
Of course, almost all media puts a spin on things these days, even outside of the United States. Turning Point USA was referred to as a “radical conservative organization,” whatever that’s supposed to mean. Those interviewed on the other side of the aisle were demonstrated in a slightly more favorable light.
I got hundreds of comments and DMs on social media from European viewers of the series, both positive and negative. It was so cool to see conservative ideas seen in a new light! Overwhelmingly, the hate-filled comments and negative feedback centered around a single concept–that because I hated socialism, I must be a Nazi.
I decided to clear that up very quickly for people with a Reel video, which you can watch below.

Conservatives HATE socialism. We also HATE the Nazis. These two hatreds are not mutually exclusive, no matter what the Left loves to tell you.
If you’re reading this and have been called a Nazi, white supremacist, racist., transphobic, anti-woman, etc. (the list could honestly go on forever), I promise you’re not alone. The Left is excellent at name-calling to try to silence conservative voices, so they call you the worst thing possible in an attempt to stop your voice. Don’t let them!
What’s the craziest thing you’ve been called for being a conservative? Let us know in the comments! ????
