Blue-checked podcaster slams group of 'far right psychos and ghouls' like Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Daryl Davis who want 'to defend their right to be racist'

The Foundation Against Racism and Intolerance (FAIR) is a new “non-partisan organization dedicated to advancing civil rights and liberties for all Americans, and promoting a common culture based on fairness, understanding and humanity.”

Its board of advisers includes people like Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Megyn Kelly, and journalist Zaid Jilani, as well as City Journal writer Christopher F. Rufo, who has done a great deal of coverage of critical race theory and education:

I'm proud to be an advisor to the new organization FAIR, which has assembled a coalition of liberals, moderates, and conservatives in defense of the American principles of free expression, civil rights, and equality under the law. Get involved: https://t.co/GlK3BHbxlj. pic.twitter.com/UFrE71RySC

This is fantastic. The answers to the problems with CRT and cancel culture and all the rest can’t just be “no.” We have to make the case for what is right — and @fairforall_org is a great step toward that. https://t.co/5Fd51eS1Ce

It’s a diverse group of people with diverse politics, but a common goal:

Any ideology that asks people to judge others based on their skin color is wrong.

Any ideology that denies our common humanity is wrong.

But Alex Goldman, cofounder and cohost of “Reply All,” a podcast about the internet, doesn’t see it that way. FAIR adviser Kmele Foster happened to see Goldman’s take on the organization and grabbed a screenshot before Goldman deleted it.
