Mainstream press stoking racial tension to paint 'whites as the enemy,'

 



Left and Media are Fomenting a Race War  . . . "At least the media haven’t politicized the weather reports —  yet. . . . 

. . . "The news and cable talk shows are brutal — all-partisan-politics-all-the time.

"Sports programs are almost as bad, thanks to their blind worship of the Black Lives Matter movement and its dangerous ideas.

"NBA coverage is the worst.

"You almost feel like you have to swear your allegiance to BLM or confess to being a lifelong racist before every tip off — which is why the NBA’s TV ratings for this year’s playoffs are in the toilet." . . .

Mainstream press stoking racial tension to paint 'whites as the enemy,' says Heather Mac Donald

Why the media loves the white racist story

Ignored in the process of labelling people racists and shaming them is that the shaming fails to condemn actions. Instead, it focuses on a single person. Condemning people gives them little room to change, grow or learn from their mistakes. Humility is needed on all sides.

CNN admits to terrorizing America with fear-mongering and crisis programming  "Charlie Chester, one of CNN‘s technical directors, was caught on tape admitting that the fake news network “got Trump out” by spreading lies and disinformation about his presidency.

"Among other deceptions aimed at steering the public into panic and unrest, CNN told its viewers to be afraid of President Trump – and many listened. Consequently, he was voted out of office through fraud and misdirection, complements of CNN." . . .

EVIDENCE: How CNN faked a story about Matt Gaetz, got caught, but still won’t remove it  . . . "Miller insisted: “This CNN story is complete fake news. No such scheduling or meeting request was ever made, and therefore, it could never have been declined. Take note that this story has zero on-the-record sources. It’s literally made-up. We are demanding a full retraction.”

"He added, in a second statement: “CNN has no on-the-record sources making this claim, no electronic or written or recorded evidence backing up this claim, it flat out never happened, and we demand a full retraction of this story. Who was the editor that allowed this to be printed???”

"That CNN failed to approach Miller in the first instance, forcing a post-publication correction would be bad enough." . . .

But the CNN editorial process failed on multiple levels:

Cisgender Intersectional Agitprop; “Woke” CIA video ensures no happy ending for the people.

 Frontpage Mag


. . . “ 'I am intersectional, but my existence is not a box-checking exercise,” the CIA star claims.  She suffered  from “imposter syndrome,” which supposedly causes high achievers to doubt their skills, but “I did not sneak into the CIA.” Indeed, “My employment was not and is not of a fluke or a slip through the cracks. . . I am educated, qualified and competent.” That gives viewers plenty to ponder.

"On the education side, what exactly is the intersectional agent’s field of study and what is her GPA? Would a degree in sociology or women’s studies qualify somebody as educated? Has she read books on espionage such as Perjury: The Hiss Chambers Case, by Allen Weinstein? Like Clinton security advisor Anthony Lake, does the star CIA agent think Hiss might be innocent? She claims to be qualified but for what the video provides no clue. For many viewers, that will be an issue.

"The Central Intelligence Agency is tasked with protecting the United States against hostile, nuclear armed powers such as China, Russia, and North Korea, with Iran soon to join the list. Protecting America would seem to require more than mere competence, but the CIA video star gives no examples of her actual job performance. On the other hand, she leaves viewers with more than a reasonable doubt.

 “ 'I am a woman of color,” the CIA star explains. “I am a mom, I am a cisgender millennial who’s been diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder.” Viewers might think that such a disorder would disqualify a person from working for the nation’s most sensitive intelligence agency. Strictly speaking, the CIA is not a therapeutic or training organization.

"Whatever “cisgendered” might be, the 36-year-old provides no explanation of how qualifies someone for employment with the CIA." . . .

CIA Publishes Super Woke, Super Cringe Promo Vid About 'Intersectional,' 'Cisgender Millennial'  . . . "Civil Service, like the military, is traditionally a meritocracy. There should be no reason to put a fine point or emphasis on diversity. Mike Pompeo tweeted something akin to this perspective:

“When I was Director of the CIA, we valued individuals based on their talent and skill, not their race or sexuality. I’ll never forget what one female analyst said to me: 'Thank you for valuing me for my work. I want my abilities and achievements to define me, not my sexuality.'”

"Director and producer Robby Starbuck sees this embarrassing woke piece as an indication that the “the state of our Union is in peril.” He retweeted the video with obvious disgust saying:

“Our enemies are laughing their asses off watching this. While the CIA virtue signals about hiring an ‘intersectional, cisgender, millennial with generalized anxiety disorder,’ our enemies are plotting to take advantage at every turn.”

. . . 

This does not escape parody: CIA Breaks Up ISIS Plot To Use Incorrect Pronouns "The Central Intelligence Agency has already seen results of its new intersectional hiring campaign. The Agency’s recent recruits have announced they’ve broken up an ISIS plot to refer to people by incorrect pronouns.

“That’s literal violence,” explained CIA Agent MaKenna Wallace, a recent Gen Z hire with a degree in women’s studies. “I’m shaking right now just thinking of it.”

"The CIA jumped into action, though, and got those ISIS members kicked off Twitter. “They’re not going to hurt anyone now,” MaKenna added. “I mean, they could be on Parler, but I’m not going to get an account there to check that out. Ew.”

"The incorrect pronoun plot got the agency really worked up, and they’ve temporarily shut down to give everyone there a chance to rebalance, which is why they have yet to look into all those bombs that just went off in Europe. They may have to leave that to others, though, as they’ve reportedly obtained intel that terrorists are plotting to obtain deadnames, which MaKenna described as “as bad as a dirty bomb times a million.” (Parody, in case this was not obvious?

Leftism has damaged blacks more than slavery or Jim Crow did; Asians are paying the price

 Leftism has damaged blacks more than slavery or Jim Crow did


Even as leftist policies chipped away at family stability, leftists did two other evil things: (1) They attacked faith, even though modern Judeo-Christian faith has been a tremendous force for good at the micro-level, in families, and at the macro-level, in whole societies. (2) They told blacks that, because of “systemic racism,” blacks were damned if you did and damned if you didn’t in terms of obeying the laws. So you might as well disobey the laws. No one on the left ever pointed out that all this systemic racism existed most in Democrat-run communities.

"Sidney Hammond was recently released from jail by radical Marxist San Francisco DA Chesa Boudin for robbery at the same location!

"After being violently attacked, the 36-year-old Asian father is seen quickly jumping on his feet to check on his 1-year-old child in the stroller."

The Equity Mess

Despite their professed goals, Democrats' pandemic policies have widened disparities between races, classes, and genders.

terrellaftermath

 Reason 
"Two days before the 2020 election, Kamala Harris could have picked from any number of campaign themes. The number of COVID-19 cases had doubled over the previous month. At home, violent crime was up; abroad, negotiations with the Taliban over U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan had bogged down. And ominously, Harris' opponent, Vice President Mike Pence, was refusing to state clearly whether Donald Trump would accept the results of the election.
"Instead of any of those closing arguments, Harris and her campaign team chose to emphasize, in a tweet, speech, and animated video, a single portentous word that in a remarkably short time has escaped the laboratory of academe, spread through newsrooms and human resources departments, and now lodged itself firmly inside the White House: equity.
" 'There's a big difference between equality and equity," a slightly bemused, slightly exasperated-sounding Harris explained over the image of an animated young white man vaulting his way confidently through a rock-climbing course after having started out in a more advanced position than his discouraged black counterpart. "Equitable treatment means"—the two hikers, now joined in success after the disadvantaged one was given a boost up, gaze confidently at the horizon from atop the summit—"we all end up at the same place.' " . . .


The Problematic Equity Case for Mass Transit  "A large body of research suggests something quite different: access to private automobiles—not transit—is a powerful social equalizer."
. . . "Even when racial discrimination was not the motivation, black property owners were more likely to be targeted because their land tended to be valued less.  . . ."

Pro-Choice Group Apologizes For Video That Accidentally Humanized The Unborn (Parody, in case that wasn't obvious))

Babylon Bee

"WASHINGTON, D.C.—After the Agenda Project's three-year-old ad in which a baby is shown with the caption "She deserves to be a choice" was unearthed, the progressive think tank faced severe backlash from pro-life groups and anyone else with a modicum of conscience.

"The group has since come forward and apologized for accidentally humanizing the unborn in the video.

" 'We are extremely sorry for making it appear as though unborn babies are 100% biological humans. That was never our intention," said an Agenda Project representative. "We see now that footage of a human baby whose life we would gladly see snuffed out is probably not the best way to advance our agenda."

"Fellow progressives also blasted the ad, claiming that the video makes it obvious that the far left is OK with killing babies. "We don't want to let on that we know the unborn are human," said former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards. "That would give up the game. So for this ad to equate a human child with an unborn human child is beyond the pale for the pro-choice movement."

" 'Just to be clear, our official position is to never let on that we know the unborn are biologically human. Just yell something about your body being your choice if someone tries to corner you on that," she added."



Sen. Tim Scott: Driving the Wrong Way While Black

"But there’s also a ridiculous reason Republicans make goo-goo eyes at any black Republican. As the Social Justice Warriors say, they’ve “internalized their oppression.” Oh, you call us “racist,” media? We support (Fill in Name of Black Republican Here)! What do you say now, media?  Media: Yeah, he doesn’t count."

  Ann Coulter  "ANSWER: “Sen. Tim Scott, Republican from South Carolina.”

"QUESTION: “Who will loads of Republicans support for president in 2024?”

"I know this because … I am Carnac the Magnificent!

"Also because Republicans have latched onto a black candidate for president every four years, pretty much throughout my entire adult life.

I’m one of those Republicans, having enthusiastically supported Alan Keyes in at least one of his three presidential runs, Herman Cain in 2012 (9-9-9!) and Ben Carson, as my backup to Trump, in 2016.

"Other black Republicans who were — in the words of Michael Kinsley — “drooled over” by the GOP include Colin Powell (the Weekly Standard’s choice for the 1996 contest), Condoleezza Rice (supported by Dick Morris and Rush Limbaugh as our 2008 nominee), and Allen West (Glenn Beck’s choice in 2012).

"The rational reason for this is that no black person in modern America casually rolls into being a Republican. I never really gave it much thought, but all my friends and family are Republicans, so I guess I am, too.

"That doesn’t happen. By the time any black person decides to announce to the world that he’s a Republican, a lot of thought has gone into it. There will be no hagiographic profiles in The New York Times, Pulitzer Prizes or hosting gigs on MSNBC.

"That’s why black Republicans, on average, are a lot ballsier than white Republicans (and 147% smarter than black Democrats)." . . .

. . . Wouldn’t a great cause for any U.S. senator — especially a black senator — be to oppose the effectively pro-criminal, aggressively anti-police BLM, instead of catering to them?  (Emphasis mine, TD)

The Politics of Attacking Tim Scott  "After a week of vicious personal attacks on Sen. Tim Scott, it’s time to step back and ask what’s really going on here. Why such ferocious pushback after Scott’s calm rebuttal to President Biden’s speech to Congress? Why are the assaults so nasty, so personal? What are the political implications?

"One implication should be clear, but another is well hidden. The obvious one is the attacks are meant to keep Black voters firmly within the Democratic coalition. Condemning dissidents like Scott as “race traitors” implies that the only way to keep faith with Black America is to support Democrats and their progressive agenda." . . .

. . . "One way to stop it is to make sure Black conservatives pay a high price for speaking out. The goal, like so much in modern American politics, is to suppress dissident views, to shame, humiliate, and cancel them.

"That’s the message from those who condemn Scott as “Uncle Tim” or an “Oreo.” They are telling African Americans: If you challenge our agenda, we will shred you personally. That’s exactly what MSNBC host Tiffany Cross did on her show when she lacerated “the hollow institution that resides inside Republican Sen. Tim Scott’s head. No racism there, and
apparently no sense either." Cross added that she wouldn’t "argue with people Harriet Tubman would have left behind," and that Scott’s remarks would "shame the ancestors and appease the oppressors.”
 Joy-Ann Reid, another MSNBC host, tweeted her approval. At their network, that’s what passes for 
intelligent commentary." . . .

MSNBC's Joy Reid and Guests Tag-Team in Effort to Portray Conservatives as 'Hideous Racists'


The Left isn’t Woke, It’s Hypocritical, Here’s How:

The moment Caitlyn Jenner announced she was running for governor of California as a republican, she went from hero to villain in an instant. It’s predictable now, expected and a little bit funny.

Conservative Cardinal   "The Democrat party and radical left like to see them selfs as the champions of the minorities. They claim to uplift the majority-black inner cities and bring social justice to the “oppressed” groups such as LGBTQ and Women.

"That is a noble cause. No one argues that any group should be oppressed and restricted in their right to participate in the American dream. However, they are hypocrites. Democrat policies do nothing to uplift the poor, and when a woman, African American, or LGBTQ person doesn’t tow their political line, they are canceled just like the rest of us."

" 'Tim Scott, a Black Republican, has come under fire from leftists after his rebuttal to Joe Biden’s speech to congress. Scott started trending on Wednesday night, being called an “Uncle Tim.” This phrase is a derogatory term used to describe a Black person who is being submissive to his/her white masters." . . . 

Even if he's conservative on some issues, Bruce Jenner is still a man  "I have been observing political maneuvering in California as relates to the recall of Governor Newsom and the candidates lining up to replace him.  During appearances in conservative media, hosts have referred to the putative CA gubernatorial candidate as "Caitlyn Jenner" and used the pronoun "she."

"As Jenner continues campaigning, Conservative, Inc. is going to find itself in a position of pitiful intellectual inconsistency.  For years, conservatives have rejected the concept of "trans" as simply impossible.  Conservatives seek to understand and amplify objective reality over political narratives.  Accepting the concept that Jenner is female is a direct assault on this philosophical and factual perspective." . . .

Ann’s Plan To End Police Shootings

But let’s start here, because brave cops deserve to be protected. And because black lives matter.

  Ann Coulter   "To use the cliche of the moment, these are deeply polarized times. But there are some issues so urgent that we must find common ground. At the top of that list is preventing police-citizen interactions from resulting in the deaths of either innocent civilians or dedicated police officers.

"Unsurprisingly, Joe Biden’s Justice Department is now signaling its intent to address this problem in the time-honored Democrat way — by “investigating” local police departments, so it can then announce the foregone conclusion that “systemic racism” abounds.

"The next step in that playbook is a “Consent Decree,” where local police departments, under threat of crippling and endless Dickensian litigation, agree to hand over their keys to the feds. And yes, this nifty move is executed under color of law, though it’s not entirely different in spirit from the way Captain Phillips lost control of his container ship on the high seas, if you happened to catch the Tom Hanks movie.

"Conservatives are girding for battle. In the past, Consent Decrees have been used to kneecap police departments, compelling them to waste millions of dollars on paperwork, and focus on concerns notable for not being “Keeping the Public Safe.”

"Maybe in the interest of comity, we shouldn’t abandon Consent Decrees so fast. So here’s my stab at one. Below, I have enumerated 16 bullet points that I believe we can all agree on." . . .  Read the rest here...

Fauci Admits CDC Guidelines For Kids To Wear Masks Outdoors In 90-Degree Weather May Not Be ‘Sensible’

Mark Gorelik, a Columbia University doctor, told New York Magazine, “I am supportive of effective measures to restrain the spread of illness. However, the CDC’s recommendations cross the line into excess and are, frankly, senseless. Children cannot be running around outside in 90-degree weather wearing a mask. Period.”

Why masks are still mandatory  . . . "Here's a typical scenario.  The vaccinated test subject enters the supermarket.  The vigilante mob of leftists can't wait to accost and demand compliance to their edict, using physical violence if necessary.  The test subject then proclaims that he has put his mask in his pocket.  A short time later, the test subject hears the man claim the same immunity." . . .

Public school leftist indoctrination never stops


 Bookworm Room   "A random worksheet in an 8th-grade public school classroom highlights the non-stop leftist indoctrination our children receive in school.

"A friend of mine found himself in a public school 8th-grade classroom. The students had been doing a project that called upon them to identify what constitutes a hero. To help them, the teacher had prepared a list of people that the students could denominate as heroes or not. What’s striking about the list is that, of the 24 names, 15 are leftists. I’ve marked the leftists with frowny faces. The others are either historic figures who are not considered overtly political or they fall outside of the modern political rubric:
