Today might not be the greatest day of all for Smashing Pumpkins lead singer Billy Corgan, who just declared that anti-Trump protesters, the Black Lives Matter movement, and ‘social justice warriors’ in general are no better than the KKK.
No doubt he’ll be attacked relentlessly by unhinged leftists for those comments.
Guess what libs? He’s right.
During an interview with Infowars’ Alex Jones, Corgan essentially said social justice warriors were so brain dead that “you’re not gonna get them back.”
Jones then made mention of an anti-Trump loon who spit on supporters of the Republican candidate in Portland, Oregon, something that also happened in Albany, New York.
The radio host said their anger is merely perceived, a “made-up thing in their head when we don’t hate them.”
Corgan responded, “If you could go back to Selma 1932, and the Klan member spitting in some person of color’s face, don’t you think that guy thought he was right, too?”

Via the Daily Caller:
Corgan suggested that “the only thing that’s going to adjust their ideological fixation is reality,” and said he was “horrified” free speech believers “are gonna be coming for me.”
“It may not be tomorrow, but it’s soon enough because I said the wrong thing on the wrong day because I was tired and I didn’t take my X2 that day, or whatever,” Corgan told Jones. “You know what I mean? It’s like, to live like that, to live where every word is a landmine – you know what I’m saying – it’s not the world I want to live in.”
Later in the interview, after defending the First Amendment rights of KKK members, Corgan said, “I’m not saying America doesn’t have a racist bent, so let’s put that out there to start with, but let’s go back to a time where racism was accepted, it was institutionalized. OK? If you could go back to Selma 1932, and the Klan member spitting in some person of color’s face, don’t you think that guy thought he was right, too?”
Jones added that he’d “personally” like “to punch (social justice warriors) them in the nose.”
