ESPN Says This is “Bad News”; We’re Not at All Sure about that

I’m not a racing fan and never heard of Kyle Larson, but know him now because he was caught using the n-word while playing some online racing game (check out the hyperbole employed by ESPN):

https://www.espn.com/racing/story/_/id/29031596/kyle-larson-racial-slur-throws-nascar-diversity-gains-reverse

I suppose this would just be another case of a white being excoriated for the use of a racial slur, something blacks get a free pass on all the time, but it turns out he is 1/2 Japanese, which, according to some, means he should qualify for the free pass also. Except there are a couple of problems, first off: He doesn’t look Asian, he looks white, and he doesn’t have a Japanese name. Now if his name was Kiroshawa and he looked ethnic, then the whole presentation of the affair could be spun differently. As it is, the news stories will always have a Caucasian-looking man with a European name attached to them. Not all, a few are sticking with him, likely because of his ancestry. If he were pure white, his career would undoubtedly be over: https://www.foxnews.com/auto/major-sponsors-drop-nascars-kyle-larson

He was actually being touted as a "diversity pioneer" in the racing industry due to his ancestry:

It’s not about facts, it’s about presentation and imagery, something that played out similarly with George Zimmerman, whose Hispanic/black ancestry, and mestizo looks were downplayed and ignored by the media, which put his very white-sounding name out there, as if that meant he was pure white. The driver Larson called the n-word wasn’t even black, it was a white man and obviously he was using the word facetiously, or in that way that wiggers use it among themselves to ape blacks because they are the kind of whites that are so insecure they have to adopt black identity. Maybe Larson thought it was OK for him to say it because of his ancestry but he thought wrong, the media is always frantically searching for its next race hoax headline. Larson is now bowing and scraping to the gods of political correctness, hoping to salvage his career while NASCAR virtue signals to the nth degree:

N.S.: This is the same NASCAR that insulted its fans several years ago by halting the practice of using the “General Lee” sports car from the Dukes of Hazzard at the beginning of its races, because the car sported the Confederate battle flag on its roof. Instead, the organization sucked up to black supremacists who were never going to embrace it, as much as they might embrace the cause of white genocide.

If Kyle Larson set NASCAR’s “diversity gains” in reverse, then bully to him!

GRA:In the same vein,we have this.I WAS going to post the story a couple days ago as my "Laugh of the Day",but it's more like a "Dumb Nig Moment"--blacks fighting with blacks--both in government jobs.This is why blacks are unable to govern anywhere,in any capacity.

Woke Reporter Accuses Black Surgeon General Of Racism

APRIL 10, 2020 By Tristan Justice
PBS White House correspondent Yamiche Alcindor accused U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams, who is black, of racism for employing terms commonly used in his own family during Thursday’s White House press briefing.

“You’ve said that African-Americans and Latinos should avoid alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. You also said don’t do it for your own wallet, do it for ‘Big Mama’ and ‘Pop Pop,” Yamiche said before Adams cut in to add, “Grand-daddy too.”


“There are some people online that are already offended by that language and the idea you’re saying behaviors might be leading to these high death rates… Could you I guess have a response for people who might be offended by the language that you used?” Yamiche finished.

@Yamiche
US Surgeon General Jerome Adams says black, Latino & other people of color should "avoid alcohol, tobacco and drugs." "We need you to step up," he says.

Some will find this language offensive after Adams stressed that behavior was not the issue for why more black ppl are dying.

“I used the language that is used in my family,” Adams said. “I have a Puerto Rican brother-in-law. I call my grand-daddy, ‘Grand-daddy.’ I have relatives who call their grandparents ‘Big Mama.’ So that was not meant to be offensive. That’s the language that we use, and that I use and we need to continue to target our outreach to those communities.”

Our media is so eager to create controversy, one reporter just basically hinted that the black surgeon general was being racist when he said "big momma" and "pop pop."
(GRA:Sounds like an episode of "Sanford and Son"--with both nigs qualifying as "big dummies.)

Thursday’s accusation was just Alcindor’s latest attempt to charge White House officials with employing racist terms amid the crisis over the Wuhan coronavirus.

In late March, Alcindor repeated the exhausted claim that identifying the novel Wuhan coronavirus with where it originated as racist, a topic that had already been addressed in the same briefing.

“There are some, at least one White House official who used the term ‘KungFlu’ referring to the fact that this virus started in China. Is that acceptable? Is it wrong?” Alcindor asked without ever naming the person she was referring to.

“No, not at all,” Trump said. “It comes from China.”

Numbskull? Is that the N-word? Rachel Jeantel at the Treyvons/Zimmerman trial said that when a colored man calls someone a n-word it merely means MAN!!

OH sure.
