California<\/a> state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, was widely mocked by conservatives on social media over two videos of him being shouted down by anti-Israel activists in his own district over his stance on Israel, despite his progressive track record.<\/p>\n

The first video showed several people surrounding Wiener, running for Congress to replace Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi<\/a>, as he walked through San Francisco’s Trans March at Dolores Park on Friday, with multiple hecklers shouting profanity-laced insults.<\/p>\n

“We f—ing hate you!” Wiener was told in the video that was viewed over 11 million times on X, posted by Dimitry Yakoushkin, who could be heard criticizing Wiener\u2019s position on the war in Gaza<\/a> as the Democratic lawmaker moved away from the crowd.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Conservatives on social media widely mocked Wiener and pointed to the fact that he is considered one of the most progressive Democrats in the country and yet was still attacked by his own constituency for not being critical enough of Israel.<\/p>\n

“No one more richly deserves this humiliation than Scott Wiener, who learns the hard lesson that you can be a militant for trans radicalism, a full-scale Israel-hater, and an all-around moral derelict…and the hard Left will still yell at you for being a Jew,” conservative commentator Ben Shapiro posted on X<\/a>. “10\/10, no notes.”<\/p>\n

“Hey, Wiener guy!” Reality TV star and former Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt posted on X<\/a>. “Remember when you called me a \u2018McBigot\u2019? How does it feel now that the Frankenstein you created is coming for you? Every stupid communist learns this history lesson the hard way. Enjoy!”<\/p>\n

“I have zero sympathy for eat me last Democrats like Wiener who enabled anti-white bigotry to fester, threw open our borders to foreigners with alien ideologies, and poured gasoline on the dumpster fire of the trans contagion and LGBTQ insanity,” Charlie Kirk Show executive producer Andrew Kolvet posted on X.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wiener, who is gay and Jewish, was also the target of a second incident last Wednesday that went viral, when he was harassed at a San Francisco bar over Israel as he attempted to watch a World Cup game.<\/p>\n

“For the Jews thinking you can play footsie with these people\u2026 they just hate you because you\u2019re a Jew,” \u00a0XX-XY Athletics founder and CEO Jennifer Sey, posted on X.<\/a> “That\u2019s it. That\u2019s what it comes down to. Wiener is Jewish. Never bend a knee. It won\u2019t go well.”<\/p>\n

“Once they\u2019re done with Zionism, they\u2019ll come after democracy, capitalism, and the foundation of Western society and government,” Hussain Abdul-Hussain, research fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, posted on X<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Palestine is the tip of the iceberg. The iceberg is \u2018Islam is the solution,\u2019 the alternative to Enlightenment ideas, as imagined by Muslim Brotherhood ideology.”<\/p>\n

“You can see the fear in his eyes, and while I have little in common with him, there is something relatable about this moment,” California Post opinion editor Joel Pollak posted on X<\/a>. “It’s no real consolation to point out that he tried appeasing the hatred (letting the rest of us be victimized). This is what we look like before the end.”<\/p>\n

Wiener\u2019s office released a lengthy statement about the two incidents, posting online<\/a> that Wiener was “harassed, threatened, and physically intimidated while attending public events to engage with the San Francisco community.”<\/p>\n

“I have no objection whatsoever to anyone disagreeing with me, opposing me, or protesting me,” Wiener said in the statement. “All of that is core to democracy. I also have no issue when people talk to me on the street and ask questions or express opposition. That\u2019s democracy, even when the people engaging in this conduct misrepresent my views.”<\/p>\n

“But when opposition and disagreement transition to harassment, including cornering me, touching me, or trying to physically bully me out of a public event, that crosses a line.\u00a0 We\u2019re living in a time when violence is all too often threatened or used against people in public life. In San Francisco, we\u2019re better than that.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wiener, who had previously stopped short of using the word “genocide,” reversed course in January and said he believed Israel\u2019s actions in Gaza qualified as genocide. The California Post editorial board commented on the shift in a recent piece<\/a> ,saying, “The irony: It wasn\u2019t enough,” the outlet wrote. “Nothing is ever enough. Wiener remains a target, even though he changed his mind, because he is Jewish.”<\/p>\n
