The Federal Liberal riding association in Carleton are accusing Conservative MP Pierre Poilievre of being a white supremacist. In a tweet posted on Thursday, the Liberals allege Poilievre is wearing a white supremacy symbol on his sweater.
For context, the clenched fist is not a white supremacist symbol, but this did not stop the Liberals from allegedly defaming the Carleton MP for merely wearing a pro energy sweater.
Poilievre sure loves this hoodie.

Do his loyalties lie in Carleton or Fort McMurray?
Does he deny climate change?
And what’s with the clenched white fist, a white supremacy symbol? Really?
What does Poilievre stand for? Who's he fighting for? We’d like to know. Wouldn't you? pic.twitter.com/kxu8GfKzaR
As a reference, the Liberals used the Anti-Defamation League example of a white power fist and it is evidently not even remotely resembling what Poilievre has on his sweater. Ironically, the fist seen on Poilievre's sweater actually resembles the Black Lives Matter logo, which has also been used by other revolutionary leftist groups. Even more ironic, the founder of the Oilsands Strong is Metis.
The tweet immediately backfired once it was posted, leading to a considerable amount of opposition of criticism.
His white fist? I don’t see a fist. Furthermore, he’s white. What’s he supposed to do, borrow Justin’s blackface makeup? This despicable tweet was created by cropping a photo of Pierre with his young daughter. What a disgusting attack by Justin Trudeau’s @liberal_party . #cdnpoli https://t.co/EhyqgrvFMS

The party who’s leader has worn blackface a uncountable amount of times is accusing Pierre Poilievre of being a white supremacist. #cdnpoli https://t.co/PzWGmjh0wk

The @liberal_party calling @PierrePoilievre a white supremacist?! How low and grotesque. An apology would be nice even if civilized tolerance of opposition is beyond their capacity. Liberals continue to erode our democracy one brick at a time. https://t.co/2rgJrZnd1n

Using Pierre’s toddler in an attack piece is beneath you. Having worked with Pierre, I can say he is dedicated to working with multicultural communities - saw it everyday. Delete this because it’s a disgrace and untrue. https://t.co/DBLLw68J8e

¡@liberal_party dice que mi marido es racista! Soy su esposa; venezolana de piel morena orgullosa de mis raíces. Hablo español a nuestra hija, cocino arepas y pabellón criollo. Nuestro hogar es multicultural tal Canadá. Te amo mi amor @PierrePoilievre. ¡Sigue la lucha por Canadá! https://t.co/s0fZxNx7YN

Many other users responded to the Liberals, pointing out the hypocrisy of calling the opposition a white supremacist, while Justin Trudeau has worn blackface an uncountable amount of times. Others are taking this more seriously and are calling for legal action against the Liberal Party.
It remains to be seen whether the LPC will remove the tweet.
