@BridgetPhetasy Oh my gosh
This narrative by D Smith is so evil in so many ways. You are right it is ginning up hate, resentment, envy and hopelessness that is going to put these young men onto a self-destructive path.
It’s a losing proposition.
How do you bring down housing?
Look at NYC
You think housing and childcare are new issues for politics?
Same old D playbook.
Tell me. How would you consult the campaigns?
And then what actual policy solution do you have so that all the Rs turn out to vote.
If the R party shifts to D lite, we lose more voters than add.
We need to add more voters that sat out bc the R platform was not implemented.
Hispanics are not all poor people wanted childcare..
I know
I’m Colombian
Imagine getting out of jail for beating your pregnant wife…
and the very first thing you do is get on Christian Mingle, Upward and several other dating apps to find your next victim.
Dating apps are filled with evil men.
It's hilarious, but also insane, that @RichardGrenell keeps lying to people in the Balkans.
Now he is spreading the rumor that he got @SusieWiles fired and removed from the White House.
NO, YOU DID NOT.
This guy is an absolute con artist. He got a lot of business and concessions, such as the $6 billion LNG deal with @ediramaal, which will be CANCELED, by going around and telling everyone he was going to be the next Secretary of State. Then he'd be the next director of the CIA.
Sure, buddy. More like you will be facing justice and be in an orange suit pretty darn soon.
America seems to have worked itself into a national frenzy over two white college girls making monkey noises at the Ring camera outside the apartment of three black students. The monkey noise is one of the oldest racial insults there is, and what these white girls did was wrong. But why is this a national story? The young women who were targeted posted the video, which was their right, yet that does not explain why the whole country picked it up. Why do so many people who make a living speaking into a microphone have an opinion on this? I watched CBS (yes, CBS!) interview the black women who were targeted, and they did not seem broken. Even the mother of one of the black women seemed bothered to learn that one of the white girls had withdrawn from Ole Miss.
So why isn't this done and dealt with? We know that race stories go viral and draw clicks. But why do race stories like this one draw so many clicks, and why does an act by two 18-year olds become a far bigger story about a family business and a university? The answer, I believe, is white guilt.
Far too many of us don't understand the true nature of the Left. It is not only politics or policies. The modern Left is an identity, and it is an identity created by white guilt. After the civil rights victories of the 1960s, white America stood accused of racism and lost its moral authority. As my father has argued, the way to win it back was to prove you were innocent of racism, and the surest proof was to stand against it in public. Over decades, that stance, and the display of innocence that comes with it, became part of who the people of the Left were. The genius of this identity was that it gave whites a way out of the box marked oppressor, as long as they allied with the oppressed. It also gave tribal identities room to flourish, so long as they were in the box marked oppressed. A white guilt identity built on standing against racism always needs racism to stand against, no matter how small. After all, if racism fades, then what quick innocence is there to be had?
That is why this story could not stay in that alley. Many in the media have absorbed the white guilt culture, and they amplified this story until their hunt for racism reached the family of one of the white women: an auto dealership group owned by her grandfather and run by her father until February. The implication is that if she is racist, they must be too, and who knows how many people associated with that business have suffered at their hands. Indeed, complaints of racism have been levied against the dealership, and they are now being folded in by the Left as additional proof. That’s how you build the stage for systemic racism.
By all accounts, Ole Miss seems to be holding its ground on individual justice. But the white guilt machine will do everything it can to increase the charge from monkey noises to something systemic — something that condemns an entire university and gives everyone watching a chance to earn their innocence.
This is how it feeds itself. On the white side, those seeking innocence need racism, however small, to create the stage where they can condemn it and earn innocence in return. On the oppressed side, the tribe sells that innocence to whites and collects power in return — policies, programs, transfers of money. And then there are those of us who watch this machine with disdain. We can condemn racism without trading on anything. The machine runs only on those who do.
The two young women at that Ring camera were never the point. The white guilt left seized upon them as their new source of fuel.

Think Jensen Huang was the first?
They want you to believe the daughter of an incredibly wealthy Chinese businessman fell madly in love with this in 1990.
Sure.
