Did a white retail worker at Macy's call a customer the N-word?
That is the excuse that some wannabe rapper is using to justify his brothers beating the sales clerk to a bloody pulp.
Here is the incident.
Boy, boy, don't touch me, don't touch me, n'b.
Don't touch me, n'b. Don't touch me, b. Don't touch me, b. Don't touch me, don't quit touching me,
I'm, you know, I'm hurting, stop moving.
Sorry, man.
I'm hurting.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I don't know what he's apologizing for because there's no evidence in that video of what
the guy who was filming claimed, which is that the sales clerk called the shopper, the N-word.
No evidence of it at all.
And I actually bet that he didn't call him the N-word.
And my evidence for why I don't think that guy who is denying calling him the N-word called him
the N-word is because,
We call the word the N-word.
We treat the word with such terror, such awe.
It's like the Israelites using the unspeakable name of God in olden days.
So I don't think he did it.
Even if he did it, would that have justified that beat down?
I'm not so sure about that.
Everybody is looking at the last few weeks through the lens of race.
I think it is much better explained through the lens of ideology.
We will talk about the N-word.
We will talk about the M word.
We will say things that the left does not want us to say.
I'm Michael Knowles.
This is the Michael Knowles show.
Some people get in trouble for saying that word.
Some people get in trouble for being accused of saying that word.
Some people say that word.
They don't get in trouble at all.
Wonder what the difference is.
We'll see why and how you don't get in trouble at all.
But first, you got to thank our friends over at Paint Your Life.

And artwork that I strongly, strongly recommend.
That Macy's employee was accused of calling that guy the N-word and he got this awful beat down.
No evidence that it actually happened.
A white Antifa guy, a Marxist or an anarchist or an anarchist Marxist,
actually walked up to a cop, a black cop, and called him the N-word to his face
no consequences whatsoever.
I feel sorry for your family.
He says he feels sorry for this guy's family.
This guy's not looking like he's got his life in order exactly.
You're part of the fucking problem.
I hope that you change it,
the way you deserve to be turned.
So spewing vile insults of this guy.
I'm sure he's on a thousand drugs.
What's up?
What's up?
Got your mask.
Use your mask.
Stop being the .
Do what's right.
There it's the word.
You're a, uh, you're a
thing, guys.
You're going to do what right, big, dog.
All right.
All right.
Trump this, bitch, stop it.
There's the word.
You're a, you're a, I can't, I guess I can't even say it.
You're a B-I-T-C-H-A-S-S-N word.
Is that, did I do that right?
I don't know what I'm allowed to say, what I'm allowed to spell.
It's very confusing these days because it very very,
person by person. This guy was allowed to say it completely outright to a black guy's face,
no problem whatsoever, because he's got the right ideology. You see that the store clerk at Macy's,
we don't know anything about his ideology or political philosophy. We just know that he's a white guy
and we know that he's being accused of doing something. And so he's got to be, he's in Michigan.
He's probably one of these terrible racist people who doesn't even live in Manhattan. You know,
he doesn't even live on the coasts. He's just a no good.
deplorable, irredeemable person. But this guy, he looks like he's living in the heart of Chaz,
Chas Chas Chop. And so because he's got the right ideology, he can get away with it. What about
Jimmy Kimmel? Now it gets a little bit trickier because Jimmy Kimmel is a Hollywood celebrity.
He spouts all the politically correct leftist doctrines. So he should get away with it. But maybe he went
a little bit too far because we now have shocking, breaking new evidence that Jimmy Kimmel said
the N word. Now, we already know that he's worn black face, I guess technically. He's darkened his
skin. He's portrayed black celebrities and characters. That is no longer acceptable. But then there's
this album that Fox News is reporting as an exclusive breaking news audio, audio gathered by Fox News.
It's a joke album in which Jimmy Kimmel allegedly plays Snoop Dog and sings the N word.
baby poop in the hay.
Okay, so you get the idea. This is from Kevin and Bean. This is an L.A. Radio group and they put out
face. And the key line there is fat N-word in a sleigh given gifts away. And you get the idea. This is from Kevin and Bean.
This is an L.A. radio group and they put out this album years ago. And the key line there is fat N-word in a sleigh given gifts away.
And you can hear it's very much in the style of Snoop Dog, especially from that era.
This is not some amazing find.
This audio has been on YouTube for years.
And the thing that I find funny about this is this was run news headline, exclusive footage.
Jimmy Kimmel says the N-word.
And then they include the audio in there, but they bleep out the word.
So I have no idea if he actually said it or not.
I guess I take their word for it that they said it.
But that's the kind of care.
That's the kind of walking on eggshells that we have around this world.
word, except only for certain people.
Only for certain people.
So what is it going to be?
Should Jimmy Kimmel be canceled?
This is a question that conservatives are debating right now because I think what we all
want to say is you shouldn't be canceled for telling a joke.
You shouldn't be canceled for saying a word no matter how offensive the word is.
And we should give comedians a little bit of more leeway.
Sure, that's how I feel.
Except that's what we've been saying for years.
We let the left run rough shot over us, run rough shot over our culture,
cancel every single one of our performers, every one of our speakers, every one of our political
commentators, every one of our politicians, we let them all do it. And then we give them a lot of grace
and they don't learn the lesson. Okay. The whole way that this works of giving the left grace
is if they learn their lesson and realize that we don't want to live in a society where no one can say
anything and everyone's got to walk on eggshells and everyone hates each other. But if they don't learn
that. If they just keep doing exactly what they're doing, then why would we, why would we hesitate?
It seems to me the pros of canceling Jimmy Kimmel outweigh the cons. I don't even, I don't care
about Jimmy Kimmel. He is the toast of Hollywood. They have him host all of their awards shows,
but I think the pros outweigh the cons. Right now he's on vacation, which seems like an excuse to
me. They'll probably wait for this to blow over, but there's a chance that he gets canceled.
Showing the left a good example only works if there's a chance they come around. And, right,
Right now, there isn't.
Okay, they play for keeps.
They are no longer just talking about tearing down Robert E. Lee.
They're no longer just even talking about tearing down Jefferson and Washington.
They are now talking about smashing churches.
We'll get to that in one second.
First, though, I have got to thank our friends over at Ring.
You know, it's very important, especially these days, to feel safe in your home.
We are home more than usual these days, and it's hard to keep a close eye on things.
More deliveries mean more boxes left unattended.
more opportunities for packages to go missing.
Plus, you're getting maybe some unexpected visitors.
Maybe people who want to do you harm.
Maybe it's your mother-in-law.
Maybe there's not a difference between those two things.
With Ring, you can keep your home safe no matter where you are.
Ring is on a mission to make neighborhoods safer.
I give Ring out as a housewarming gift to friends of mine,
and it just gets rave reviews.
And the thing I really like about it is you get to feel like you're living in the future,
living in the Jetsons, right?
You can answer your door from in your home or on a beach or at the office.
But what I really like is that it's relatively quite inexpensive.
So I feel like I'm giving a really nice gift and it seems great.
And I don't have to pay too much money.

Sean King, who was trending yesterday under the phrase talcum X on Twitter, I would never use
that phrase, but that's just what he was trending as on Twitter because there are allegations
that he is totally white because on his birth certificate, both of his parents are white.
Though then he has countered and said, actually, his father is not the guy in the birth certificate
again, he's biracial and whatever.
I don't care to get into that soap opera.
In particular, what I want to get into is the real drama that he's foisted on the country,
which is he is now calling on all of his thugs and gooons to go smash churches.
So look how we've got.
It's no longer tear down statues of Confederates because they're traitors to America.
Then it became tear down statues of the founding fathers because they're racist and bad
and America's terrible.
But still we're talking about public property, government property.
now we've gone to go to private churches and smash their windows and tear down their statues.
Sean King writes, quote, yes, I think the statues of the white European, they claim is Jesus,
should also come down.
They are a form of white supremacy, always have been in the Bible when the family of Jesus wanted to hide and blend in.
Guess where they went? Egypt, not Denmark.
Tear them down.
Not, I call on churches to remove them.
Then they would say the churches should remove them.
He said, tear them down.
You, you tear them down.
Yes, all murals and stained glass windows of white Jesus and his European mother and their white friends should also come down.
They're a gross form of white supremacy created as tools of oppression.
Racist propaganda, they should all come down.
I don't know where this idea comes from that Jesus is presented most often as some Nordic kind of God, some Scandinavian or something.
But it just isn't true.
Jesus is not presented as Thor.
at a few churches that maybe in Iceland he is, but everywhere else he is not.
He's presented as a Jewish guy, which is what he is.
Then there's this other idea on another side that Jesus was actually black or Jesus was actually
Arabic or something.
Also, not true, and that's why he's not presented that way, Jesus is, I don't know if you
read the book, but here's a spoiler alert, Jesus is a Jew.
And when you look at depictions of Jesus, most of the time he looks like that.
If you look at, say, the Shrout of Turin, which is a relic that is said to show the likeness of Christ,
the artistic depictions of Christ tend to look a good deal like that.
But he wants to set it on fire.
He wants to tear down the statues.
He wants to smash the windows, Sean King.
Because he doesn't like white people, I guess.
He says anything that, if it looks white, tear it down, even if we're talking about the son of God and his mother, the mother of God.
This is only going to get more extreme.
I don't know what conservatives are waiting for.
We think that they're all just joking.
We think they're all just kidding.
They're not.
They're telling us what they want to do, and then they're doing it.
They're telling us they want to tear down statues of Robert E. Lee.
Then they tear down statues of Robert E.
They're telling us they want to tear down statues of George Washington.
Then they are actually tearing down statues of George Washington.
They're going to do it to the churches.
They're already doing it.
There's actually an image coming out of the Netherlands of all places that has graffiti tag
and paint all over.
an image, a mosaic of the Virgin Mary, and it says BLM on it.
This is going to go on.
Is it about race, or is it about ideology?
Is it about the N-word or is it about the M-word?
I think it's the latter.
I think it's coming into Marxism.
When these people tell us what they think, we should believe them.
We talked yesterday about how one of the founders of Black Lives Matter came out and said,
we are trained Marxists.
We talked a few weeks ago, I called this.
when I said, look at the language on the Black Lives Matter website, this is boilerplate
Marxism. Well, now we have another example of this, which is the hashtag cancel rent movement.
And you're seeing a lot of astroturf, Twitter accounts popping up, and a lot of bots on the
internet popping up saying that we need to cancel rent. What does cancel rent mean?
It sounds really nice to all of us, right? Because none of us wants to pay our rent.
We like to have the apartment, but we don't like to pay our rent.
What does cancel rent mean? It means cancel private property.
Because if you don't pay your rent, then the land,
can't pay his mortgage. If he can't pay his mortgage, he loses the property. And you hear explicit
calls for this for many prominent left-wingers, including now, and especially perhaps the leaders
of Black Lives Matter. This is what they always do. They give you a slogan that you think that
you can agree with and buy into, but that slogan is a gateway to premises that would completely
destroy your civilization. So Black Lives Matter, as I've said, nobody disagrees with the phrase
Black Lives Matter. That's why everyone posted the square. But Black Lives Matter, but Black Lives
Matter doesn't mean Black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter means Marxism, as the founders of Black Lives
Matter actually told us over the past few days. Cancel rent, sounds great, right? But it doesn't just
mean cancel rent. It means cancel private property, cancel your political rights, cancel your
economic rights, destroy your country. What is the result of this? We're actually seeing this experiment
play out in real time over in Chaz Chop, named by viewers of this show, Soy Malia, the Soviet Union,
and Veganasuela, among other things. Well, in 48 hours in Chaz Chapp,
shop, two people were shot. A 19 year old was fatally shot in the protest area, according to the
mainstream media, also known as the anarchist occupied zone. And then another person was shot and
hospitalized in very serious condition. This is going on all over the place. Forget just
Chaz Chop, Soymalia, as the most extreme example. Just go to New York run by Mayor Bill de Blasio
Akami himself. Well, what's going on in DeBlasio's New York? Crime is up through the
roof. There was a video that circulated yesterday of a bunch of thugs throwing a firecrocker at a homeless
guy and watching it explode on top of him. Here it is. He's running away. It's a big explosion on a homeless
guy. That is, it doesn't, you know, I know that the mainstream media have tried to accuse white
supremacists and the phantom of the Ku Klux Klan for committing these crimes. Doesn't look that way to me.
This is what's happening in Bill de Blasio's America. This is what's happening in Chas Chal.
America. This is what the left wants to do. Are we going to believe them when they tell us this is
going to happen? You can't, you can't blame them for dishonesty. They're telling us what will happen
and then they are doing it. What is the goal of all of this? Is the goal of all of this to have
racial reconciliation? No, they're using race as a means of affecting their ideological ends.
And we've got a Black Lives Matter activist admitting this on television again yesterday on CNN.
We'll get to that one second. First, though, I got to thank our friends over

The Black Lives Matter founder, Patrice Cullors,
she's the one who yesterday admitted that she and her BLM co-founder are trained
Marxists.
She went on the Jake Tapper show on CNN
and admitted what this whole movement that's sprung up right now is really aiming at.
Not just these pie in the sky ideas of cancel rent and, you know, overcoming racial oppression or whatever.
What is the actual tactical, practical goal here?
Well, the goal, of course, is to get Trump out.
Hands down, Trump not only needs to not be in office in November, but he should resign now.
Trump needs to be out of office.
He is not fit for office.
And so what we are going to push for is a move to get Trump out.
While we're also going to continue to push and pressure Vice President Joe Biden around his policies
and relationship to policing and criminalization, that's going to be important.
But our goal is to get Trump out.
The goal is to get Trump out.
We knew that.
I said this weeks ago when everyone was pretending this was about a man being killed in Minnesota
or a man being killed in Georgia.
And I said it's not about any of that.
It has nothing to do with that.
This is about the elections in the immediate moment.
This is about getting Trump kicked out in November.
And then more broadly, this is an issue with liberalism.
But did you hear that at the end?
Hear what she said at the end.
She goes, we want to get Trump out and then we want to push Joe Biden.
There are some people.
I've even heard conservatives say this.
They say, it would be better for America if Joe Biden gets elected.
I've heard this.
some conservatives think that because they think that we're at such a fever pitch right now Trump has so triggered the libs that the libs are now burning down all the cities and so maybe we just need to give them we need to give in we need to give them the presidency say okay we surrender please stop burning our cities Joe Biden he's nothing right Joe Biden is relatively moderate given the present state of the Democratic Party he's been around forever we all know him it'll just be a return to normalcy let's just put Joe Biden in there we'll get moderate
progressive governance and then we'll fight again next time until they start burning our cities
again and then we'll cave again. I think that what Patrice Culler has just said here, what BLM is
admitting is what you've all got to fear. You don't really have to fear Joe Biden. Joe Biden can't
even spell his own name right now. He doesn't know where he is and he happens to be in his own
basement. You've got to fear the people who are going to be around Biden. Biden is nothing.
I've talked to Democrats about this.
They will say Joe Biden is not with it, but the people he puts around him are.
Think about how quickly radical ideas have been mainstreamed in the past few weeks.
You remember two years ago, President Trump said, if we tear down statues of Lee,
they're going to tear down statues of Jefferson and Washington.
And everybody laughed at him, and then within two years it happened.
Well, actually, just within a few weeks, we've gone from Lee to Jefferson to Washington
to now Jesus and Mary.
That's how quickly things accelerate.
We've gone from laughing at the Green New Deal as a big joke to living the Green New Deal.
Basically, transportation was shut down for two and a half months.
We were all thrown out of work.
We all got huge, massive government bailouts, trillions of dollars.
We're living the test run of the Green New Deal.
Radical ideas can be mainstreamed very quickly.
Do you really not believe that some of the 20-somethings who are going to be working in the hypothetical
heaven-for-fin Joe Biden administration wouldn't agree with these radical proposals?
They all would.
Every single one of them would.
All these 20-somethings who just, they just graduated from college, they've got degrees in cultural
studies, studies of culture of culture of studies, all leftist indoctrination.
They're going to be pushing for the future.
of the Democratic Party.
Don't forget Tom Perez said that AOC is the future of the Democratic Party.
Not Chuck Schumer, not Joe Biden, not any of those guys.
AOC.
The college Democrats, almost 100% of them, support abolishing police departments.
This is according to a new study from College Fix.
College Fix did a poll of 1,500 college students found near unanimity among college
Democrats that they should defund the police.
94% of these college Democrats.
I'm not talking about college Antifa.
I'm not talking about college Democratic Socialists of America.
College Democrats, 94% consider rioting and looting to be legitimate forms of protest against
allegations of racial discrimination and police brutality.
That poll was conducted by College Pulse.
It was taken just over the past few days.
Margin of error was plus or minus 3%.
And sample was drawn from an undergraduate pool that includes over 270,000,000.
verified college students, okay, from 900 different colleges and universities in the U.S.
Pretty representative sample here.
Almost 100% of them support it.
Those are the people who are going to be staffing the Joe Biden administration.
Now, what is this really about?
Defenders of Black Lives Matter, at least the honest ones, will admit that there's this weird
Marxist undertone.
They talk about abolishing the police.
They talk about abolishing the family.
They use words like Comrade.
their founders admit that they're trained Marxists. They'll admit that, but they'll say, look,
this Marxist ideological element, this is just one way to confront the problem of race.
I think the reality is the other way around. I think that these Marxist agitators are using race
and exploiting race as the tool to push their ideological agenda. I think this is what Marxists have
been doing in the United States for over a century. They know that the weak point of America
is race. That's the fault line. That's where things begin to crack. And so they just poke that wound.
They just put their finger in that as much as they can to cause discord to affect their ideological
ends. Actually, a KGB defector, I think now about 30 years ago, guy named Yuri Besmeanov,
he talked about this very issue. He came to the United States. He defected out of the Soviet.
Union. He got out of there by dressing up as a hippie, and he made it to the, I believe he made
it to Athens, then went to the U.S. Embassy there was obviously, went through extensive screening
by U.S. Defected the U.S., and then spilled the beans on what the KGB was doing, because he himself
was doing it. He said that most of what the KGB did was not espionage. It wasn't James Bond.
We all like to think that it was because it's so romantic. But actually, most of what the KGB did
was ideological subversion, was just trying to transform the opinions of the American people to turn against their own country.
We saw this happening in the 60s and 70s. And now, if Mr. Yuri Besbenov is correct, we're seeing the fruits of that right now.
The way he saw it in the 1980s, the ideological subversion had been largely successful and now constituted, a ticking time bomb.
It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation.
Why that many years?
Because this is the minimum number of years
which requires to educate one generation of students
in the country of your enemy,
exposed to the ideology of the enemy.
In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology
is being pumped into the soft heads
of at least three generations of American students
without being challenged or counterbalanced
by the basic values of Americanism, American patriotism.
The result, you can see.
Most of the people who graduated in 60s, dropouts or half-baked intellectuals,
are now occupying the positions of power.
You cannot change their mind, even if you expose them to authentic information,
even if you prove that white is white and black is black,
you still cannot change the basic perception and the logic of behavior.
In other words, these people, the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible.
Now, what he's saying, it seems like this big, wild, crazy, secret knowledge,
but what he's saying is just obviously correct.
It's just common sense.
We know that Americans have been demoralized because now even our elected officials are supporting
protests of our very own flag.
We're tearing down statues of our founders.
The country hates itself without question.
I mean, you can read it in the New York Times.
You can watch it on CNN.
or ABC. So that demoralization has certainly happened. What was the process of that? It was infiltrating
American institutions, most especially the universities, and it takes 15, 20 years, and then it actually
happens. We know that that's happened too. We know that there is a lot of Marxist indoctrination
that goes on in the universities. If you've ever attended a college class, you've probably experienced
it firsthand. So we do know that that sort of thing is happening. It makes one wonder if we won the
Cold War from a military perspective, but ideologically perhaps we lost it. There is another school
thought, though, which is that this isn't just about Marxism. I mean, obviously these idiots in
Chaz and Chop and the BLM people, they are Marxists and they admit that they are, but this is
about liberalism itself, because, okay, the Marxists are trying to attack and infiltrate,
well, how come the liberals let it happen? Maybe there's something within liberalism that is
weak enough that allows for that sort of attack. And when you think about what liberalism really
says, it does seem open to that sort of vulnerability because the premise of liberalism
is that we are constantly liberating ourselves from the oppressive past.
The basic idea of liberalism is right there, liberal, liberate, is that the past is bad
and the past is oppressive.
And only now in modernity have we been able to liberate ourselves from that.
And this process doesn't just stop.
It actually continues on and on.
and that's how you get progressive liberalism.
That's even some forms of allegedly conservative liberalism
still see that we are constantly liberating ourselves
from the bad old past
into the good, bright, perhaps utopian future.
I actually think it could be a combination of these two things
because by this view,
we traditionally think of liberalism and communism and fascism
as completely different things.
They're all totally opposed to one another.
And yet, when we talk about communism and fascism,
we realize they're not necessarily opposed to one another as two sides of the same coin.
They share a lot of the same premises, right?
That's why we point out that there are so many similarities that the communists had with the fascists
and the fascists had with the communists.
Maybe liberalism has a little bit of a similarity there too.
They're all about overcoming the oppressive past, giving us this new bright utopian future.
They're all views of the world that prioritize human knowledge, rational knowledge.
state power. They're all views of the world that ultimately, I think, tear away our past,
tear away our culture, move us toward a more utopian kind of ideology. And maybe because of that,
they're all fundamentally flawed. Even liberalism, the last of the three great ideologies that was
standing after the Cold War, right? We took care of fascism a long time ago. Then we took care of communism
in the 80s. Liberalism was remaining. Well, maybe it's not remaining for very long. And maybe we need
to rethink something. I know there are a lot of conservatives who say, we're conservatives because
we're liberals. Well, I think that moment is kind of over. And I think now conservatives need to
offer something that is distinct. It's a different. It's an alternative. In the words of Phyllis Schlafly,
a choice, not an echo. Because right now, this ideology creates a lot of absurdities. Most especially,
we just saw a video of a white liberal, black lives,
Matter supporter, starting an argument with a Hispanic Trump supporter, and then being asked
for reparations by the Hispanic Trump supporter, and he supports reparations, but he won't
give the reparations to the Trump supporter.
We'll get to all of that in one second.
First, though, I got to thank all of you.
We've made it to 78,000 subscribers on my YouTube channel, the Michael Lulls Show YouTube
channel.
Let's get it to 100 if you wouldn't mind helping me out.
Thank you very much.
There's a lot of fun stuff.
There are a lot of breakouts, interviews, that sort of stuff.
If you are not already a Daily Wire member, you should consider getting a Reader's

All Lives Matter is a dog whistle to Christians and their universal love. So you get some satire
there too. You also get a lot of, you know, in-depth analysis from Ben or from Matt or from me
or from other people at the website. So head on over. Dailywire.com slash subscribe. We'll be right
back with a lot more. This crazy ideology is for.
creating absurdities. So one of my favorite videos going around the internet from these demonstrations
and protests is you have this Hispanic guy who's wearing a t-shirt. It says God, guns, and Trump.
And he's standing there. You know where he stands. Some white liberal guy walks up to him and starts
arguing with him. And the Trump supporter flips the tables on the white liberal.
I'm a minority. For what? Give me my reparations. For what?
Because I've been oppressed.
I'm a...
You've definitely been oppressed.
Give me my rights.
You're white.
You're white.
Give me my reparations.
Hey.
Give me my reparations.
You have my promise of reparations.
What do you want?
On all your money.
You know what you're after?
I'll get my...
Exactly.
You're a hip-
And then he just walks away.
And then he's trying to come up with an answer to this.
My reparation.
Where is it?
You want to get...
You want me to have reparations?
Where are my reparations?
I'm in my reparations.
Yeah, yeah, give me my, give me my reparations.
Yeah, exactly.
The guys agree, the white liberals agree.
Yes, you do.
That's right.
I'm fighting for reparations.
But I'm not going to give them to you.
And then the Hispanic Trump supporter says, so what are we even talking about?
He just calls him out.
He calls out the hypocrisy.
Says, okay, you want me to have reparations, right?
Yes, I want you to have reparations.
You think I'm oppressed, right?
Yes, I think you're oppressed.
Okay, well, do it.
Put up or shut up.
Give me my reparations.
Well, no, I'm not, I don't want to do that.
Oh, okay.
So this is all, this is all just a game.
I mean, I don't think that this white liberal meant to show this point or meant to concede
this point.
But what he is showing here is that all this racial agitation is simply a political tool.
It's an exploitative tool to affect their ideological ends.
And the ideological ends, very often are the exact opposite.
of what you might hear from the racial agitators.
So, for instance, in Chazchop, in Soymalia, the leftists there have instituted a program
of racial segregation.
There's an area on a big field where all the black people are on one side, and then
there are these white guards who are standing there.
And so a guy with a camera shows up, and he says, hey, can I go into the black area?
And the white guards say, absolutely not only the blacks go in there.
How long's the blackout going for?
Until 8 p.m.
Okay, so I have to wait till 8, basically.
You're welcome to, like, hang out on the perimeter area.
Well, the thing is, I'm half Italian, half of Colombian, so do I get a pass to get in there?
Well, this space is right now held for just black.
Oh, just black, okay, so full black, you're saying.
If you have black ancestry or if you have experienced oppression because you're black, then you can enter this space.
Okay, thank you.
So this is a ridiculous exchange, obviously.
This guy comes up, he says, well, I'm Italian and Colombian.
Does that count?
Am I black at all?
Can I, Colombian?
I might be a little like Afro Latino.
We'll get to the question of Afro Latino in just a second.
Can I go into the area?
And she says, no.
And they're exploiting.
Well, you can if you've experienced the oppression of a black person.
I'm reading a book right now by Booker T. Washington, one of the great black Americans in history.
It's called Up from Slavery.
And he describes all the insane segregationist ideology.
that came up when you had a system that was trying to figure out exactly with precision what race someone is.
So he said there was a man who went up to get a room at a hotel and they said,
you absolutely cannot, you're not allowed to stay here because he looked like a black guy.
But then it became clear that this man was actually a Moroccan.
So he looked like a black guy and I guess he's African, right?
But because he was a foreigner, he wasn't an American, when they realized this, they were so embarrassed
and immediately gave him a room at the hotel.
and this man learned not to speak any more English while he was in America.
Same thing on a train car once.
Booker Washington is there with a Native American man.
They look almost the same, hard to distinguish who they are.
But they said, no, the Native American can eat here, but the black guy can't eat here.
When you try to parse these little differences, it's ridiculous.
That's in part why segregation fell apart.
It's because of how ridiculous the ideology of it had become.
The same thing is happening here.
We're seeing the same ridiculous ideology on the other.
other side. We're seeing the mirror image. And the left is not pushing for a racial integration or
racial equality in any way. It is merely an oppression, real or imagined, in many cases, a completely
imagined oppression that is just completely flipped, and we should oppose it every step of the way.
But the absurdities will abound. I wonder if it might collapse under the weight of its own absurdity,
probably not before a lot more harm is done. But AOC showed this the other day, because AOC is
is getting a little bit jealous.
She's envious that all of the black grievance politics are getting the attention,
and she's not allowed to participate in those grievance politics.
She has now redefined Latinos as black.
The first thing that's so important is for us to talk about racism within our community
and how we are both impacted by racism in the United States and across the world,
but also how it exists with.
within our own communities.
And a lot of times I'll hear people say,
okay, this is about Black Lives Matter,
what about Latinos?
And I always say, Latinos are black.
We are Afro-Latina and we run an entire racial spectrum.
And so we have to have conversations around colorism.
And we have to have conversations about the African
and indigenous roots from which we come
and how that's reflected in systems of power,
wealth inequality and frankly, our political system.
Latinos are black.
That's the big brain take from AOC.
News to me, but well, that's pretty interesting.
I also can't let her get away with that pronunciation.
Notice what she does.
She's speaking perfectly fine English.
She grew up in Yorktown.
She grew up in a very ritzy town in Westchester County.
So she's speaking English like a normal person.
And, you know, one thing I always hear about Latinos
is that some people say that they're either white or black.
But what I want to point out is that Latino.
say, aye, aye, are black. Why are you pronouncing it that way? Well, I am Italian, right? I'm of Italian
extraction. When I decide where I want to go to dinner some nights, do I say, okay, well, you know,
we either get hamburgers or we can go get, you know, some hot dogs, or maybe we can go get
Italian. Yeah, no, I think, I don't know, we'll get whatever you want. We can go get a grilled
cheese, we get a cup of soup or maybe we'll go eat some Italian food. No, I don't do that. I say
Italian food. I don't say, okay, I want to go, maybe I'll have some escargo tonight. Let's go eat
Franca. Franca, would be very good. No, I speak English, the way that English people talk. Same thing
with Latino. I mean, the word Latino, really what we're talking about is the word Hispanic.
Now it's politically, I guess politically incorrect to say Hispanic, so you have to say Latino.
But the pronunciation of it is a ridiculous performance of this kind of racial grievance politics.
I think you're going to see pushback. I think actually AOC is probably going to have to
apologize for this because there is a little bit of a debate right now going on on the left
between the intersectional woke people who say that every racial and sexual minority
has to, religious minority, they all have to combine together and put away their differences
for a second to stop the oppressive straight, white Christian male who thinks he's a man.
And so they'll all get together in Kumbaya. And then there's this kind of older, more
Marxist form, which you're seeing in Black Lives Matter, which basically says, no, Hispanics are not
black. Colombians are not black. Asians are not black. The black experience is a unique experience,
and we are going to be a sort of monolithic unit. We're going to see that debate. AOC is pretty
adept at navigating the waters of left-wing culture, so I don't think she's going to have to
to deal with this, you know, necessarily, straightforwardly, you know, in a direct way.
But she may have to apologize.
She may have to ease her way around it, which will be difficult with her time because she's
now being encouraged to run for Senate against Chuck Schumer.
I hope this happens.
There's been chatter about this in New York circles for a while.
Chuck Schumer, Democratic leader in the Senate and AOC, this freshman congressman.
But don't forget, AOC ousted a big power play.
in the Democratic Party, Joe Crowley.
That was how she got in in the first place.
And so it's not far-fetched.
One thing the error of Trump has certainly taught us is never say never, things like this can
happen.
And actually, speaking of Trump, Trump himself is encouraging AOC to run for Senate.
Trump endorsed her and said, actually, AOC in the Senate would be a big improvement,
and she would win.
So he's just doing this to needle Chuck Schumer.
But it's a pretty funny point.
A Bernie Sanders advisor, David Sorota, is saying, just going to say something out loud
that should be obvious the fastest way to do.
to speed up the process of changing the corrupt do-nothing status quo protecting culture of the
national democratic parties for AOC to defeat Chuck Schumer in a Democratic primary in 2022.
I want to focus in on that key word here, speed up, speed up the process.
That is what we're seeing happening. We're seeing a process of cultural decay speed up.
And so you'll have the race hustling, which has been building for decades now on the left,
that is speeding up in a way that I don't think any of us would have expected.
Don't forget, what was it?
12, 13, 14 years ago, we had more or less racial harmony in America.
I think racial tensions were as low as they've ever been.
And then 12 years ago, we elected a black president.
And people were eager to elect a black president because they wanted to show that America
was beyond its race problem.
Then you know what they did four years later after his disastrous first term?
They reelected him.
They reelected him just to prove that America's passed its race problem.
Barack Obama, perhaps the worst president in American history.
And there have been some duds, but Obama might be the worst.
Still gets reelected largely to make this important point that America has passed its race problem.
And now, what eight years later, we seem to be,
in worse racial issues than before.
The left is pushing that.
They're pushing that just like the Soviets
pushed it when the Soviets were around,
just like our adversaries around the world
are pushing it today.
They know that that is a weak point
and they want to advance their own ideological agenda.
We're seeing the tearing down of statues,
accelerating, increase day by day.
We went from Lee to Jesus very quickly.
We had a couple saints
and a couple founding fathers in the middle of that as well.
Things are happening very quickly,
and I think it's why we need to take this leftist ideology
to its logical conclusion.
It's why we don't necessarily need to defend Jimmy Kimmel.
It's why we don't necessarily need to defend liberalism.
I'm a conservative because I'm a liberal.
We need to offer an alternative,
something that actually conserves our American culture,
our solidarity among Americans of all different stripes,
our love of our country, our love of our history.
Trump began his presidency by saying everyone bleeds the same blood of patriots.
The racial differences are superficial.
Our love of countries is what will bind us together.
And what did the left immediately go for?
The American flag.
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson.
They said, okay, if you're not going to allow us to be divided on race, we'll go right to the heart of America and divide ourselves.
We as conservatives need to offer something that tells us why we need to conserve our country, our traditions, our history, our culture, our people.
Our solidarity is countrymen.
If we can't offer that, if all we can offer is progressivism light, if all we can offer, when the left says America's rotten to the core, if all we can offer is America's not that bad, if all we can offer when the left says tear down statues,
of Jesus and George Washington is, no, just tear down Robert E. Lee. If that's all we can offer,
that is a weak sauce, that is doomed to failure. We need an alternative, a choice, not an echo.
We're going to have to use our words very carefully. We're going to have to choose our tactics
very carefully. And we're going to have to be in for a bumpy road because at the rate
that things are going, very likely the only way out is through. All right, that's our show.
