I’ve been saying that it can’t be long before lots of white folks getting slammed with CRT will start to say “Hey, don’t blame us! We were just tools for the evil Jooooo!” And then it will be off to the races, because all the woke CRT folks will agree on that, because it’s far easier to blame someone else than blame yourself, and all of CRT is just a big exercise in blame shifting and confessional virtue signaling. It’s a bit like primitive Baptists running around telling everyone “I’m a sinner!”, when what they’re really saying is “I am saved, and you’re doomed to H*ll!”
Leftists would be just as happy saying things like “I was once a tool of the capitalist Jews, but no more! I have awoken! I am on to them! Never again will I oppress people of color at the behest of a secret cabal of rich bankers!”
It’s their next logical step and emotional step, and very predictable.
Eventually people are going to realize that repenting isn’t enough. Equity comes through punishment and favoritism. Maybe they think that being a pious white person will save them, and it might save the well connected, but the same policies they use to punish the white devils will boomerang back against them.
When the pious whites and the minorities excommunicated for the wrong thoughts get put against the wall, people will realize what the intended end state is for society but by then it will be too late.
It will be a long slog and I fear most of the commenters here will be dead and gone from old age before Progressive Fascism is defeated or burns itself out.
The strangest thing to me are all the Jews who adhere to wokeism. Self-defeating.
Agreed. But self-defeating may be too mild. Suicidal may be the more correct term.
Someone told me he was a “Socialist and a Atheist Armenian-American Jew.” His grandfather emigrated so, okay, if he wants to call himself “Armenian-American” that’s fine by me. But calling yourself [Atheist *AND* Jew] struck me as odd as if I defined myself as an “Odin worshipping Viking” because I have distant, very distant ancestors that moved to Scotland from Scandinavia.
I started to wonder if it was a “Victim Card” that he could flourish whenever anyone was mean to him.
Stalin was born Jewish. Marx was born Jewish. There are lots of interestingly (contradictory) Atheist-Jews that became commies.
And Stalin was planning a purge of Jewish doctors about when he shuffled off his mortal coil. In that case, I truly hope the Jews did it.
With all the focus on past injustices there are so many minorities that are themselves super duper racists. There are many Americans whose families came from Poland who are Bernie Sanders supporters and there are hundreds of millions of Americans whose families came from Germany who are not Nazi.
The contradiction isn’t the obvious one but rather with the belief that your ethnicity and skin color determine your ideology. The sisterhood of White Supremacists and Democrats hold this belief dearly.
The self-hating Jew is not a new concept although it certainly is a puzzling one.
