About this episode
Four months ago I prepared a story on the stigma associated with being called a racist. For most whites, it’s like saying your are a child molester, or you beat your wife. Most American’s are not racists, or white supremacists, in spite of the wall-to-wall claims made by the white elite hard left and a handful of opportunistic black race baiters.That last group includes Al Sharpton, Jamele Hill, Don Lemon, No Joy Reid and Elie Mystal. All have gone out of their way to forego any semblance of cordial debate and go straight for the jugular. There can’t be a more divisive strategy. These folks, are only trying to get eyeballs and clicks, not results. The negative rhetoric has gotten even more vitriolic since I wrote the piece 4 months ago.There are leaders like John McWhortor, a black Columbia linguistics professor who has been an outspoken critic of the tactics used by the 5 previously mentioned. He wonders out loud why an open minded white person would listen to them. “One might ask just how a people can be poised for making change when they have been taught that pretty much anything they say or think is racist and thus antithetical to the good."

A recent Wall Street Journal poll indicate that 30% of voting age blacks will vote Republican in 2022, that’s twice the number when compared to 2020. McWhortor believes that most blacks think the strife pedaled by the neo-racists is not nearly the issue the media portrays it to be. “If you pull the camera back and think about 1965, and think about last week, there's been massive improvement. The question is why so many people pretend that that's not true." According to the WSJ poll, black voters respond more to economic and crime issues and have been rejecting the racist themes from the past.The left realizes it has very little going for it when it comes to favored public policy. Inflation has wrecked the economy. Gas prices are high because Biden won’t open up more American production. Borders are porous. Crime is high. So what to do? How about trying to frighten any American who will listen that a bunch of sinister right-winged segregationists are forming alliances in a number of clandestine ways to take over the government. The narrative, which is a predictable offshoot from the 1/6 melee, has been metastasizing to include things such as…according to the unhinged left, online fitness groups. At-home fitness boome
