@NicolasRitzler [name pseudonymized] [ontology] : Great take this week by Andrew Sullivan. #woke #racism #antirasist [URL redacted]
#IRLAuthorAndrewSullivan "So when I asked Stewart to delineate "structural racism," he reflexively listed a bunch of "systems" that no longer exist: post-war redlining, the GI bill, and so on. I fumbled in response, to my shame. That's what happens when you're rattled and tired and not prepped for an inquisition. But my core point is that in America in 2022, the only formal legal systems that openly advocate race discrimination are discriminating in favor of African-Americans, not against them. Affirmative action was only supposed to be a temporary diversion from liberal principles. It's now a permanent system of race discrimination to favor blacks over every other demographic, disproportionately harming Asian-Americans. The federal government now enforces it across every department." https://andrewsullivan.substack.com/p/the-problem-with-jon-stewart #TVUSTheDailyShowJonStewart #OtheringDiscriminationRacismStructuralSystemicInstitutional #PolicyAffirmativeActionDiscriminationPositive #IdentityAmericanAsian

"How would white Americans feel if they were governed and aggressively policed by nonwhite populations of Hispanics. African Americans and Asian Americans when they may become the majority populations by 2045? Only a generation away! How are you going to feel when three police patrol cars stop your spouse on his way home from work for a minor traffic violation and they put him in a chokehold and 'choke him out?' Then all the cops collectively claim in their report your husband refused and resisted police demands of providing his identification and he assaulted an officer. How are you going to feel if your son or husband is riddled with bullets, shot multiple times in his head and groin where he's barely recognizable to you from his encounter with the police? How are you going to feel when your son is thrown to the ground for jaywalking on a street that does not have sidewalks, jogging in your neighborhood or playing in the park with a toy water gun and arrested to give him a police record and life changing experience with the police? How are you going to feel when your community is targeted for over policing and quota ticketing to generate fee income to the police departments? How are you going to feel when white Americans are incarcerated at a higher rate than the general majority populations based on implicit bias and resentment? How are you going to feel when the majority populations pack the courts with their partisan judges based solely on race and age when you will be denied impartial redress of grievances? How are you going to feel when you demand support from your elected representatives to protect your communities from systemic bigotry, reverse discrimination and violence against them because of their past subjugation and oppressive acts towards people of color; and then, your elected officials only hem and haw and shrug off your cries for justice because they kowtow to police unions and lobbyists? Will white Americans be able to think about what it was like for us if the tables turn? Wouldn't you want to DefundThePolice if they were violating your rights too? Whites still have a new chance to grow and change their hateful destructive actions against people of color. 'It is a beautiful day for a neighbor, could you be mine? Won't you be my peaceful neighbor?'" #IdentityHispanicLatino #IdentityAmericanBlackAndAfricanPOC #IdentityAmericanAsian #PowerControlViolencePolice #PowerControlRegulationIncarcerationPrison #OtheringDiscriminationRacismStructuralSystemicInstitutional #SloganDefundThePolice #CauseHumanRightsViolation

"Problem is Kung-flu is a masterful piece of lampooning, that lost art which saw Victorians cartooning farting Kings and politicians in Punch magazine. The PC world, the hijackers of words like ISLAMOPHOBE (of sound provenance dating back to Greek in use 1300 years before Mohammed in a New Testament reference to FEAR of the Jews, of all things), the Woke, the BAME (who know not Wilberforce) the genderfluids, the misandrists, the feminista- shortlista's have destroyed the kind of satirical comedy of TWTWTW, Monty Python, Spitting Image (even Dad's Army, 'Allo,'Allo and Hi-de- hi)." #PoliticallyCorrectPC #IdentityBlackAsianAndMinorityEthnicBAME [Government] #IRLHistoricalFigureWilliamWilberforce ? #OtheringHateMisandry #CauseFeminism "feminista-shortlista" ? #TVThatWasTheWeekThatWasTWTWTW ?

Context "President Trump's first use of the phrase 'kung flu' -- during a campaign rally in Tulsa last weekend -- drew broad political backlash as a racist slur against Asian Americans. Within three days, however, it was also something else: a rallying cry for his supporters." https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/with-kung-flu-trump-sparks-backlash-over-racist-language--and-a-rallying-cry-for-supporters/2020/06/24/485d151e-b620-11ea-aca5-ebb63d27e1ff_story.html #OrgClassifPPUSRepublicanPartyGOPPOTUSDonaldTrump #SlurKungFlu #AdvocacyTurningPointTPUSAAction #ToponymAmericaNorthUSOklahomaTulsa #IdentityAmericanAsian "Donald Trump used racist language to describe the coronavirus pandemic at a campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, by terming the virus as the 'kung flu'. ... Trump has repeatedly tried to term Covid-19 as the 'Chinese virus' or the 'Wuhan virus' which has prompted outrage from many civil liberties groups, who have warned that such language can inspire racism and violence against Asian Americans. But in Tulsa Trump appeared to go even further in his use of racist language. 'It has more names than any disease in history. I can name kung flu. I can name 19 different versions of names,' he said to cheers from the crowd. Trump has previously defended his language around linking the virus to China. Speaking at a daily coronavirus task force briefing in March, he said it was 'not racist at all. It comes from China. I want to be accurate.'" https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/jun/20/trump-covid-19-kung-flu-racist-language #ConditionVirusCOVID19 #SlurChinaWuhanVirus #CauseCivilLiberties
Supplementary "Using the concept of displaced abjection, this chapter discusses how the Trump carnival, populist as it is, is not focused on ridiculing or challenging elites, but instead punching down, by targeting marginalized groups. Through displaced abjection, we see how the Trump carnival is centered on licensing and encouraging transgressions against specific democratic norms that affirm human dignity and equality. Trump, by humiliating and insulting age-old enemies, translates what is broadly considered unacceptable and undemocratic behavior into a transgressive, carnivalesque politics of violating fundamental democratic norms of equality, dignity, and pluralism" (Gaufman, E. & Ganesh, B., 2024, p.51,52).

Addendum this justification has multiple problems. It seeks to conflate genuine satire (related to the criticism of imbalances of power) with Trump's ham-fisted racial slur. And then, it attempts to justify the bullying by using #ReasoningFallacyAppealToTradition (as if the process of repeating a slur transforms it into critique). It then uses a #ReasoningFallacyWhataboutism to justify #OtheringHateIslamophobiaAntiMuslim through conflating it with #OtheringHateAntisemitism (as if the forms of discrimination are somehow opposed to each other - rather than simply being two different forms - and so, are able to cancel each other out). It then attempts to pass off a generalised attack on various issues, which have received significant profile contemporarily i.e. #_CondemnationGender followed up with a plug for some dated #LiteralClassicBritishTV (whose humour is the product of the time when they were produced).
