White conservatives are exhausting.
They’re manipulative, exploitative, hypocritical, all-consuming, and dangerously delusional.
White conservatives turned “woke”—a time period derived from Black vernacular—and weaponized it towards Black folks. White conservatives spend numerous time denigrating Blackness after which scouring the sunken place for Black individuals who will publicly cosign white nationalism in an effort to current the false picture of Black assist.
Living proof: Final month, we reported that conservatives have been pushing the narrative that Donald Trump’s mugshot would draw extra Black voters as a result of Black folks love criminality, revere mugshots and establish with Trump as a result of we too perceive what it’s wish to be handled unfairly by the legal justice system. It’s the racist stereotyping that ought to hassle me probably the most. However that’s simply garden-variety white racism. It’s nothing new. What actually will get beneath my pores and skin is white conservatives immediately pretending to search out widespread floor with Black folks in attacking the justice system on behalf of Trump once they’ve spent a lot time denying that the justice system, or any system for that matter, is biased towards Black folks.
Earlier this month, Trump additionally bragged that his mugshot has made him standard with Black folks.
“The Black neighborhood is so completely different for me within the final – since that mug shot was taken, I don’t know for those who’ve seen the polls; my polls with the Black neighborhood have gone up 4 and 5 instances,” he stated throughout an interview with conservative blowhard Hugh Hewitt. Is it true that any ballot has proven wherever close to that type of improve amongst Black voters since his arrest in Georgia? No. Not even remotely. However that doesn’t matter. Trump telling a lie is just like the solar rising and setting every day. It’s anticipated. It’s the intent behind this explicit lie that’s bothersome.
In response to Axios, Donald Trump Jr. not too long ago informed Newsmax that Black males have been “going to see by means of” the fees towards Trump “as a result of they’ve been coping with this for a very long time.” However have we? As a result of based on Trump, we’ve got not.
Conservatives are conveniently forgetting that it’s Donald Trump who is essentially answerable for popularizing the right-wing propaganda-fueled anti-critical race idea motion. CRT is a tutorial research that examines anti-Black bias in American techniques, such because the justice system. The whole anti-CRT motion is based on the white conservative notion that systemic racism is a lie and that Black persons are not handled unfairly on this nation. So, based on Trump and the overwhelming majority of MAGA America, Trump Jr.’s assertion that we’ve got “been coping with this for a very long time” is “woke” nonsense. Not that Trump Jr. believes it both. Like different white conservatives pushing this new narrative, Trump Jr. is just prepared to quickly droop his anti-CRT propaganda to advertise “Blacks for Trump” solidarity propaganda.
In different phrases: America isn’t racist towards Black folks till it fits whiteness to assert it’s, if solely quickly.
Right here’s a easy reality: If Trump had been profitable in overturning the legally forged votes in Georgia and the opposite states he challenged, he would have disenfranchised the overwhelming majority of Black and brown voters in these districts. However abruptly it’s Black folks he’s leaning on to “see by means of” the fees towards him.
It’s just like the time Dilbert creator Scott Adams informed white folks to steer clear of Black folks as a result of we’re racist, after which he turned proper round and tried to lean on imaginary Black pals whereas defending his personal racist white nonsense.
White conservatives are insidious.
White conservatives are at present making an attempt to jack Black folks’s “two Americas” narrative on behalf of Trump and Jan. 6 rioters and conspirators after spending years denying that narrative because it applies to Black folks in America. They’ve claimed that Jan. 6 individuals who’ve been convicted and sentenced are being handled in a different way by the federal authorities than Black Lives Matter protesters, which is demonstrably unfaithful. However out of the opposite facet of their faces, they’re now saying Black folks ought to and do establish with Trump.
Trump, who led the cost towards DEI and CRT.
Trump, who referred to as Black prosecutors racist simply because they’re Black and unfold an absurd lie that Fulton County District Legal professional Fani Willis is a “younger racist” who had an affair with a gang member.
Trump, who tried to make Black votes disappear and weaponized his place and his supporters to terrorize Black election employees like Ruby Freeman.
Trump, whose lengthy record of racist and anti-Black feedback contains remarks made about Black folks, Black nations, Black immigrants, Black and brown congresswomen, Black troopers, and even the Black girls he has dated.
Significantly, white conservatives have some nerve.
It’s the caucasity for me.
