On my substack The Neoliberal Standard I’m working on a post on the hubris of bragg charging daniel penny, “white vigilante,” after having already indicted trump, alleged purveyor of white supremacy in chief, and the terrible ramifications such prosecutorial recklessness has for the rule of law in this country.
It’s ironic as well as probably actually dangerous that progressives, by propagating this lie that white people are constantly persecuting black people just by being white--they’re sowing the seeds for violence between ethnic groups. Their entirely political racial essentialism is no better than Houston Stewart Chamberlin’s pseudoscientific racial biology, not that progressives are paving the way to fascism, exactly. Nonetheless there’s a good argument they perversely will the perpetuation of the racism they purport to deplore.
At the very least, the Woke are creating fed-upness between white people and black people. De facto segregation, a disinclination to have anything to do with “those people,” is a natural human reaction to all this gassing about race. Who needs the grief and aggravation?
Given the elastic definition of fascism, provided courtesy of woke progressives, I see no problem applying the label to them.
Haha. That’s funny.
