Since discovering a white supremacist is a bit like finding a unicorn, you might have figured that you’d never actually met one. But according to today’s Left, you probably did if you’re a patriot — when you looked in the mirror.
This is relevant since Joe Biden vowed during his inauguration speech to wage war on white supremacy. “A cry for racial justice some 400 years in the making moves us,” he said while claiming he could “heal” a fatally divided nation. “A cry that can’t be any more desperate or any more clear. And now [there’s] a rise of political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat.”
The problem is that as with “racist,” “hero,” “boy” and so many other terms, “white supremacist’s” definition get’s broader all the time. As Fox News host Tucker Carson explained Wednesday:
Bloomberg News has described a wall along our southern border as “a Monument to White Supremacy,” so be certain not to support that. Colin Kaepernick, who seems to have the unequivocal support of corporate America, calls the Fourth of July an example of White supremacy. Better put away the fireworks and the hot dogs.
The United States Army, a trusted institution if there ever was one, has an entire manual on what is and what is not White supremacy. Apparently, among the tell-tale signs of a committed White supremacist are these: Celebrating Columbus Day, using the term “American exceptionalism,” any support for federal border security or English-only measures or “education funding from property taxes.” Using the phrase “there’s only one human race” is White supremacy, too, according to the Army.
If you’re having trouble keeping up, don’t feel bad. The “only one human race” blather was a politically correct line not that long ago. But just as with how Justice Amy Coney Barrett was savaged by Senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) during her confirmation hearings for uttering the term “sexual preference” — which liberals had used mere weeks before — the propriety goalposts are subject to change without notice.
It gets worse, though. If you don’t like the white supremacy definitions related above, you have a problem. Why? Well, let’s “say you’re, for example, White but poor and you have trouble accepting the idea that you’re benefiting from some kind of structural advantage,” Carlson also stated. “Well, you’d better shut up about it if you know what’s good for you, because according to the United States Army, the ‘denial of White privilege’ is a classic sign of, yes, White supremacy. So no complaining” (video below).
Not surprisingly, this targeting of whites could remind one of socialist revolutionary Saul Alinsky’s Rule 13 from his book Rules for Radicals. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it,” he wrote. “Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.”
Of course, nothing cuts a target off from support — nothing leads to scorn and ostracism — like branding someone a “white supremacist.” Why, Big Tech took down Parler for a lot less.
This is also reminiscent of what happened in Marxist re-education camps. There was no debate. You simply had to accept the dogma, confess your “sins,” and hope for mercy (which could have meant just 20 years hard gulag labor as opposed to execution).
It’s not as if we didn’t have warning, either. But before getting to that, consider that mass-murdering Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin once vowed, “We will destroy each and every enemy, even if he was an old Bolshevik; we will destroy all his kin, his family.”
Now consider that David Plouffe, Barack Obama’s former campaign manager, tweeted in 2016: “It is not enough to simply beat Trump. He must be destroyed thoroughly. His kind must not rise again.”
No, the sentiments aren’t precisely the same, and Bolsheviks were fellow leftists. But are the two comments not a bit too close for comfort?
In more recent times, other leftists have opined likewise, talking about blacklists, “9/11 commissions,” and “deradicalization” programs for anyone subscribing to the America-first agenda.
Then there was the following late last year from the “Trump Accountability Project” website, vowing revenge:
We must never forget those who furthered the Trump agenda.
Those who elected him.
Those who staffed his government.
Those who funded him.
That website has expired, but the spirit hasn’t. Now one Don Winslow, a Russiagate conspiracy theorist, is inciting violence via a video in which he’s calling for information to be gathered on every Trump supporter in America (“doxxing” appears the goal).
Moreover, Winslow ominously warns that they “are hidden among us, disguised behind regular jobs,” referencing Trump supporters. “They are your children’s teachers. They work at supermarkets, malls, doctor’s offices, and many are police officers and soldiers.”
Interestingly, while conservatives get censored and banned by Big Tech for sneezing the wrong way, GoogTwitFace has done nothing about Winslow’s video — except let it go viral.
Of course, if Biden and the Left really were concerned about “domestic terrorism,” they’d go after Antifa, which has continued creating mayhem. Yet China Joe said Antifa was just an “idea.” Yeah, well, that idea just rioted in Seattle, Denver, and Portland on Wednesday, vandalizing businesses, burning flags, and damaging the Emerald City’s Democratic Party offices.
The Bidenites aren’t looking for domestic terrorists, however, but for a scapegoat and boogeyman. And “white supremacists” — meaning, mainly blue-collar whites and, in particular, white males — are the ideal target. They don’t have institutional defenders in mainstream media, academia, entertainment, corporate America, Big Tech or now, even, the White House. They’re the perfect group to portray as an existential threat, one so powerful that you just must accept more civil-liberty infringement to combat it, because in reality the group has no power.
The truth is that if these patriots actually had the power the Democrats claim, liberals would be at their feet just as they’re at China’s. For power is what the Left worships.
