Because the left has failed to portray the radio talk show host and California governor candidate Larry Elder as Female abuser, It seems that they have returned to their usual strategy: calling him a white supremacist.
this The Los Angeles Times Erika D. Smith wrote an article piece About a week ago, she pretended that the elders somehow promoted white supremacy. As you might imagine, she has received a lot of criticism for making such ignorant arguments, but like many of her left-wing compatriots, she seems to be able to speak out, but she cannot accept it.
About a week ago, she wrote an article titled: “Larry Elder is the black face of white supremacy.You have been warned. “
The content of the article is quite predictable. This is a typical applause of “blacks who disagree with the left are white supremacists.” When leftists like Smith find it difficult to form a coherent argument against conservatives who happen to have a certain degree of melanin, they will brag. . Instead of making actual points, they came up with mediocre talking points that relied heavily on repeated accusations of racism, and sometimes even racial nicknames.
Obviously, Smith has been criticized by some people who do not fully appreciate her popular works. In it, she quoted Melina Abdullah, the leader of the Los Angeles chapter of “Black people’s fate is also fate”:
“Anytime you put a black man’s face on white supremacy, this is what Larry Elder looks like, and someone will use it as an opportunity to deny white supremacy. They say,’How can this be white supremacy? This is a black man. But everything he promotes, everything he represents, he is pushing white supremacy.”
In fact, it seemed that the criticism was so terrible that Smith had to write an entire article complaining about it.inside follow up Article, title: “Larry Elder said he was not the face of white supremacy.His fans are incredible“Smith highlighted some of the comments she received from readers after writing the original hot article. She wrote:
“For a whole week, I received hundreds of angry racist messages from Elder, most of which were self-proclaimed white supporters. Those who tried to defend a black person seemed to have no problem resorting to anti-black people. Metaphorically, not only to destroy me, but also to destroy the entire black man.”
A writer said:
“As a white man, there is some knowledge here. Everything you have that makes your life comfortable is built by the white man… the black man is not oppressed, you have the greatest privilege [well, “privilege”] The hatred is vented every day. White people have established civilization and comfort. Yes, some people are evil, but talk about supremacy, as if the blacks themselves are not guilty. Every black country is the third world. Don’t tell me black people will run better. “
Another wrote:
“You obviously got your place from affirmative action!! Unlike Larry Elder, any black man who succeeds and achieves himself without crying and becoming a victim because of his race.”
Another said:
“Stop blaming others and take responsibility for the disgusting black culture in the inner city. 95% of blacks are killed by blacks. 95% of illiteracy rates. Girls are pregnant and earn a living outside of welfare plantations.”
Finally, a reader said:
“You want black people to stay in the Democratic Party plantation. How dare you. Larry Elder will be the emancipation manifesto that will finally liberate the black community from the shackles of Democratic rule.”
These are just some of the information Smith included in her article. I will not pretend that most of this information is not very ignorant. Call someone an affirmative action employee and repeat the stupid “Plantation“The remarks are absurd.
But something tells me that most people who disagree with her article have smarter objections, and she chose not to include it in this article. Indeed, the author admits that “the elders have supporters of all races, and they would not think of stringing together such despicable words.”
However, one person elaborated it perfectly:
“Whenever black people disagree with your distorted worldview and your view of the black community, you are always the first to start racist insults.”
And this is the crux of the problem. In her two popular articles, Smith did not give a reasonable basis for attacking Elder’s policy. She did not explain why the candidate for governor was wrong on these issues. She didn’t even explain why Governor Gavin Newsom should keep his job.Instead, she took the usual route of pretending that people who disagree with the left are white supremacists.
There are many issues I disagree with Larry Elder’s point of view. But labeling him as a white supremacist is as meaningful as John Weaver and his children who believed in the Lincoln Project. It is an exaggerated rhetoric designed to conceal a lack of debate ability.
This is a common strategy used by people on the left-but there are many who can engage in rational debate.I have interactive With them. Unfortunately, people who use this stupid talking point get the most attention.
