Sheriff Clarke, Ben Carson Are “Black White Supremacists,” Leftist Claims - Identity politics get even weirder…
Sheriff Clarke, Ben Carson Are “Black White Supremacists,” Leftist Claims Identity politics get even weirder… Kit Daniels September 18, 2017
Former Sheriff David Clarke and Ben Carson, both of whom are outspoken supporters of President Trump, are “black white supremacists,” according to comedian Chelsea Handler.
“The most confusing group of racists are black white supremacists — not to be confused with white black supremacists like Rachel Dolezal,” she said in a Netflix special published Thursday. “Black white supremacists are black people who think white people are better than them.”
“They include Stacey Dash, Ben Carson, and this guy Sheriff Clarke — he’s the only sheriff in the country who pulls himself over for no reason.”
This is the current “logic” of the authoritarian left; everything must be forcibly modified to fit into their narrative, such as turning black Trump supporters into “white supremacists,” because, according to them, only racists can support Trump.
While this delusion may make perfect sense in the ultra-liberal echo chamber, it’s not a sentiment shared by a lot of Americans, especially bluedog Democrats who helped Trump pierce the “Blue Wall” during the election. “The liberal/progressive/left along with the media has abandoned the working class for identity politics,” noted respected political commentator Paul Craig Roberts. “Identity politics teaches that women, blacks, and homosexuals are all victims of white heterosexual males who are characterized as the victimizer class, that is, those who victimize others.”
“The doctrine delegitimizes white heterosexual males in the same way that Nazi doctrine delegitimizes Jews and communist doctrine delegitimizes capitalists. There is no difference.”
And to create perpetual victims, you must first create perpetual offenders, which is where the lunacies of “microaggressions,” “toxic masculinity,” and now “black white supremacists” come into play.
Identity politics isn’t really about race as much as it is about dividing the population between social climbers who sell out to the system and Howard Roark-types like Clarke and Trump who must be ostracized because they dare to question the status quo.
And, given that context, the whole concept of “black white supremacists” isn’t that contradictory.
The authoritarian left knows no better way to cast people out than by smearing them with comparisons to Hitler, despite how ridiculous the accusations seem, especially in the case of black Trump supporters.
Southern Poverty Law Center Accused Black Critic of White Supremacism September 13, 2017 Daniel Greenfield
A reminder from Carol Swain, an African-American conservative, of just how malicious and dishonest the leftist hate group known as the Southern Poverty Law Center really is.
Zitat What landed me in the SPLC’s crosshairs was a Sept. 10, 2009, Huffington Post blog entry titled “Mission Creep and the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Misguided Focus.” I pointed out the SPLC’s silence about video footage released after the 2008 elections showing members of the New Black Panther Party, decked out in full paramilitary regalia, patrolling a polling precinct in Philadelphia where they were clearly intimidating white voters...
I ended my post with a one-liner that raised the ire of the organization and had a devastating effect on my life. I wrote: “Rather than monitoring hate groups, the Southern Poverty Law Center has become one.”
The SPLC’s retaliation was vicious and effective. On Oct. 17, 2009, my photo appeared on the front page of my local newspaper, the Tennessean, with the headline “ Carol Swain is an apologist for white supremacists.”
Like others targeted by the SPLC, Carol Swain experienced the consequences of the blacklist.
Zitat Being targeted by the SPLC has had a lasting impact on my life and career. Offers from other universities ended and speaking opportunities declined. Once you’ve been smeared in this way, mainstream news outlets are less likely to cite you as an expert of any kind.
Yet today I wear the SPLC’s mud as a badge of honor because I know I am in the company of many good men and women who have been similarly vilified for standing for righteousness and truth. Other SPLC targets have included Ben Carson (who eventually received an apology and retraction), Somali refugee Ayaan Hirsi Ali, terrorism expert Steve Emerson, political scientist Guenter Lewy (who successfully sued the SPLC), attorney Robert Muise, Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy, and Princeton professor Robert P. George... Some of those vilified by the SPLC have been subjected to even worse treatment. The Family Research Council and House Majority Whip Steve Scalise have been violently attacked by individuals inspired by the propaganda the SPLC regularly dishes out
The SPLC is an ugly, hateful and sloppy organization that cashes in by claiming to fight extremism even as it practices it.
