Most Americans would see such statements as racist, but consider this: Suppose we slightly changed the wording of each statement, replacing the word "Black" with "White." For example, "The world could get by just fine with zero white people."
Would you consider that statement to be just as racist? I would hope you'd answer in the affirmative.
The racist statements about white people were made by Sarah Jeong, one of the newest members of The New York Times' editorial board.
One person excused Jeong's tweets by saying they "Were not racist" but merely "Jokes about white people."
According to the thinking of academia's intellectual elite, a minority person cannot be a racist.
Must you first find out the race of the person making the statement? Would you suggest that it's not a racist statement if the speaker is black, but it is if he's white?
The Washington Post's media critic declared that it was racist for Carlson to cast doubt on the proposition that diversity is good.
