Richard Spencer, like the rest of his white supremacist cohort, has long advocated the expulsion of unwanted migrants.
He now knows precisely what that feels like.
This week, in a development first flagged by HOPE not hate, a British anti-racism organization, Spencer learned that he would be unable to travel to Sweden to take part in a conference for young white supremacists. As Spencers pal Christoffer Dulny, another white supremacist member of the so-called alt-right movement, wrote on Twitter, Spencer was slated to be a secret guest at the conference, but will be a no-show instead, having been turned away at a European airport and denied further travel.
The global anarcho-tyranny lives and thrives, Dulny added.

Per Swedish media, Spencer was prevented from traveling during a layover in Poland. Polish authorities told Spencer that he was barred from traveling in the country, and that he has to return to the United States, according to Swedens Fria Tider outlet.

(16,646 posts)I guess, considering Poland's experience in this area, they have a "zero tolerance" policy for his kinda crap.

(82,849 posts)He was stopped from leaving Poland to go anywhere but back home for readily-identifiable reasons, having to do with his own conduct. He wasn't barred from traveling because he will be killed by governmental authorities if he goes back home or his domestic partner whaled the shit out of him, or any other condition that he has no control over. He wasn't imprisoned. He didn't have his traveling possessions confiscated.
But the whining from his pal Dulny? You rolled the dice and lost, chum. Suck it up.
