We’re back to the hypocrisy sweepstakes, where gestures of virtue are as formalized as kabuki. Humor has been assassinated. An off word at work or school will get you booted to the gallows. This is the graveyard of liberalism, whose once noble ideals have turned spectral and vampiric.

This is the greatest irony and unself-aware shitshow of our current times. All the “king,” “Dictator,” “Authoritarian,” “Fascist,” “Nazi,” Threat to Democracy” crap drooling out of the maws of Democrat politicians, and the “Mostly Peaceful” protests and such that are happening are only happening because they’re lying through their teeth… or are too mentally unstable to be allowed to participate in the political process.
If President Trump decided he was King, Dictator, or otherwise the sole authority over America, Democrat politicians, especially Schumer and Jeffries, would already be dead or imprisoned somewhere. A number of overbearing judges certainly would be.
Oh, and if even 3% (2.39 million) of the 77+ million Americans who elected President Trump were racist, bigoted, fascist cultists, few if any Democrats would say a word, much less protest, occupy, and otherwise try their best to disrupt our nation. Most of them would simply quietly cower and a few – again about 3% – would either be dead or incarcerated.
But no. President Trump is in no way a King and the American people aren’t fascist cultists of his. That and only that is why Democrat politicians feel safe to call him thus and goad their subordinates into political upheaval and violence. They live with great privilege, privilege no longer enjoyed even in the UK, and misuse it every chance they get.

Starting in the mid-1950s, America has been dealing with nigh on constant cries – often violent cries – for equality and the destruction of what racial activists have decried as White Supremacy. That was, as problematical and poorly thought out as it was, a necessary pain. There was at that time deliberate and government-enforced inequality between Whites and non-Whites. As such, cries for equality were not inherently a bad thing.
In all truth, back then, it was a good and necessary thing that they won and that the Civil Rights Movement, for all its chaos and flaws, won the day. Though, even then, it was not enough for the Blacks or their enablers and even the venerated MLK later decided that “reparations” should be handed out to his people, thereby setting the stage for later woes.
And therein was the rot that twisted and distorted Civil Rights into the sick caricature and anti-American thing it is today. Equality was decided soon after it was achieved to be not nearly enough.
Equity vs. Equality
Equality – what used to be purported as a good thing and a goal – meant each individual or group of people is given the same resources or opportunities. Equity – the Left’s and their minorities’ newspeak for wanting more – states that each person has different circumstances and allocates the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome irrespective of those circumstances or their input into the process.
Yes; that’s the sad and maddening truth of what Civil Rights have been corrupted into devolving down to. Equality is deprecated among minorities, especially the Blacks, and their “woke” enablers in these times. Now the word is “Equity” and it is a strident demand for special privileges and advantages, preferably and most often mandatorily at the expense of White people, especially White Men, and most especially Straight White Men.
And this isn’t just hateful and wrongheaded rhetoric. Both government agencies and private sector corporations are putting tangible measure into place to give minorities special advantages and privileges, including but not limited to: prioritized hiring and promotions, special career-based educational programs, and special protections against Whites.
At The Risk Of “Shadowing” Things
At the marginal risk of “shadowing” the issue and its problems, and repeating the judgemental errors of the Warren Court’s opinion on Roe v. Wade, it’s my opinion that the actions taken to further Equity instead of Equality are not just wrong, racist, sexist, heterophobic, and pernicious, they’re unconstitutional and a violation of White people’s – specially Straight White Men – Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. There is little to no functional difference between providing special benefits to people based upon their race, creed, color, gender, or sexual proclivities and denying them such based upon those same criteria. Either way, it falls solidly under the Penumbra of the 14th Amendment and, hence, should be considered a violation of the Civil Rights Act.
Of course, the Left, their minorities, and their politicians disagree with this. Or rather, even if they agree with the premise, they don’t care. Their point in switching from equality to equity was explicitly to take current wealth and future opportunity from Whites and redistribute to others. And, the taking is at least as important to them as their redistributing is.

You can’t easily go online without reading or hearing America’s racism and how America and, hence, Americans are racist, racist,Racist, RACIST. Hellfire! we’ve Rep. “Mad” Maxine Waters hooting, hollering, and jabbering away that. “Every day, we have seen this nation get more racist than anybody thought perhaps [it] would be at this point in time,” in response to Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-SC) unequivocal statement that America was not a racist country.
But, is this even remotely true? The answer is a bit complex and convoluted in detail. Or, so it seems to me.
Why Racism Exists Today
Prima facie, the 5-panel cartoon above seems to state the reason why racism is considered to be rampant in America by so many. The Lamestream Media’s repeated failure to provide any data in “racial incidents” beyond an American did something to a Black is the proximate cause for many people buying into the idea that Americans are racist. However, that’s just the tip of a very large and very disgusting iceberg.
Yes, the media normally refuses to provide a context in White v. Black interactions in order to fuel racial anger and bring about more and – they hope – greater conflicts. That’s been part and parcel of their job since the mid-to-late 1960s when they started having to actually “earn their keep.” That, however, is only part – and probably a small part – of why they don’t explain the situation. Providing such context would anger what readers/viewers they have and bring, bring out the ravening #CancelCulture trolls, and spark a civil war within their own companies.
But, the horrific thing is that any context or explanation for any action taken by an American against a Black isn’t newsworthy and cannot be so in the minds of the sorts still devoted to the Lamestream Media. To the Blacks and their “White” enablers, the is never a valid reason for an American to take any action against a Black ever.
And that is a large part of why racism exists today. It’s a revealed truth and article of faith among Americans’ domestic enemies. As such, it will always be found by them and any argument otherwise will be considered by their sort as the worst sort of heresy.

The rampant hypocrisy of Democrats is well established. Yet, even with that bar having been set, Bernie Sanders manages to go that stumbling step further into out-of-touch surrealism.

Just pause a moment or two and reflect upon the cluelessness, self-unawareness, “privilege,” and rank hypocrisy of that statement by America’s best-known and best-positioned Socialist.

We, most assuredly sadly, live in an age where all that is not male, not White, and/or not heterosexual is held up as greatness and in which anything male, White, and/or heterosexual is decried as abhorrent or, at the very least, utterly unworthy of praise or recognition due to that very maleness, Whiteness, and/or heterosexuality.
And do be aware and assured that our domestic enemies whole issue with normal people is that they are still the majority and still exemplars of- and adherents to the long-standing, dominant culture in and of America.
