I had originally written this piece three years ago (already back then I had seen through Woke veil of lies!) but it’s even more relevant now.
The only kind of racism which matters now and which is truly dangerous, disguises itself as 'anti racism', and it's coming from the Left, not from the right.
Yeah many people are gonna disagree with that but I'm absolutely sure about it at this point. There is even mundane bulletproof logic here at play. For example, if you're a drug dealer, go about preaching how 'anti-drugs' you are, and no one would suspect you in selling drugs. Or, how it was often the case in the past, the loudest homophobes in public were actually gays in private. Similarly, 'anti racist' and 'anti fascist' movements would be the last suspected of actual racism. And yet, they are the actual racists, and pretty hideous ones as such.
First of all, speaking of old-fashioned, 'traditional' racism, it's largely dying out in the West. Yeah, there are some radical racist groups still, but their activity is closely monitored, they are hated by pretty much everyone (both on the Left and on the right), and they pose next to zero danger in the West. Yeah, there are also violent far right groups like Proud Boys but they aren't racist. Come on, Proud Boys leader is Latino, and they accept PoCs in their rows (while not accepting women). Proud Boys and movements similar to them are rather aggressively anti Left, but not racist (though ofc framed as 'racists and white supremacists' by the Left, but the Left frame all their political opponents as such at this point, so it doesn't say anything really).
I argue that racism isn't the part of modern right wing movements at large at all, at least not as much as it used to be. Their immigration policies are based on legitimate concerns of immigrant-based crime (Sweden can tell us something about it), or Jihadism and Jihadist terror attacks (France can tell us a lot about it), or drug crime (Latin America can tell us a lot about that). Hence, anti-immigration stance by most of right wing parties is based on legitimate safety concerns, which the Left totally ignore by accepting millions of illegal immigrants without as much as checking their backgrounds and criminal history even, and not on racism as the Left are saying. Also, for example Trump immigration policies in US were justified by protection of local, American workers who were largely losing jobs due to mass illegal immigration when illegal migrants were dumping the salaries and taking over the jobs as a 'cheap labor'. Again, nothing to do with racism. So, the right wing sentiment isn't about racism and skin colors now at all.
Now, what's about the Left, especially, its most radical, Woke branch? I argue that the whole Woke ideology, based on such anti-scientific crap as Critical Race Theory, White Fragility and Repressive Tolerance, is not only radical and dangerous, but also inherently racist. The fact that the Woke are openly racist towards white people, was recently most brilliantly proven by Coca-Cola 'diversity trainings' with its 'try to be LESS WHITE' bullshit. Overall Critical Race Theory stance that 'all white people are complicit in racism without even knowing it, that their primary drive is to defend their 'privilege' is actually openly racist - it's judging the whole group of people by their skin color. Martin Luther King would have condemned this stance as racist. But the Woke go even further by claiming that such features as 'oppressive, aggressive, defensive, arrogant' are attributes of white race. It's even more blatant racism - assigning the bunch of nasty features to the whole group of people based on their skin color. Just imagine which uproar it would have caused if this bullshit was said about Black people. But the Woke apparently believe that 'it's impossible to be racist towards white people' which is actually also racist.
So, the Woke are openly and blatantly racist towards white people. But maybe, just maybe, they aren't racist towards other races, right? Wrong. The Woke openly state that Jews and Asians are 'privileged' and should be discriminated against, same as white people (how the Woke aren't scared of Hitler heritage preaching open Antisemitism I wonder). It's open racism towards Jews and Asians. The Woke are racist even towards Black people whom they claim they want to protect most of all. Their blatant anti Black racism reveals itself when the Woke state that 'the Blacks would never be able to succeed in life, being 'inherently oppressed by 'white supremacists' and their 'systemic racism', unless the Woke people themselves would reach to them their helping hand. So the Woke are basically saying that the Blacks are totally powerless in American society, and that the only way for them to achieve anything is to accept the Woke helping hand. But this is so-called complex of 'White Savior' - perhaps the worst shape of racism - when white people believe that without them, any other races wouldn't be able to do anything. The Woke blatant anti Black racism reveals itself also when the Woke verbally abuse Black people who reject their toxic ideology - the Woke are calling them 'Uncle Tom', 'coon', and even N-words.
So, the Woke are racist towards all possible races. There is no wonder when this ideology is literally obsessed with race and skin color. It brings skin color into the discourse all the time, whether it's relevant there or not. For the Woke, skin color is the most important issue in life. I know only one group of people for whom race and skin colors are the most important things in the world - racists (and Martin Luther King agrees with me). For normal, healthy people, skin color DOESN'T MATTER. They judge people by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin. This is what Martin Luther King and other old civil rights activists were aiming at. Now, how the Woke react to this colorblind approach? They condemn it as 'ignoring the problem of racism' and, hence, 'racist'. And with this condemnation, they totally reveal themselves as racists. Again, only racist would put skin color on top of important things, and would condemn colorblind approach (which is the exact opposite of racism!) as 'racist'.
But this is what the Woke are doing. They call their racist and unhealthy obsession with skin color 'anti racism', and they condemn healthy and actually anti-racist colorblind approach as 'racist'. The Woke turn everything upside down. Hence, they condemn the majority of people who judge people by the content of their character, and don't give a damn of any skin color, as 'racist and white supremacist', while they anoint themselves and their toxic racist approach as 'anti racist'. We live in Orwellian 1984, truly. Racism is 'anti racism' now, and real anti racism is 'racism'. War is peace now as well (yeah this also came true with violent BLM and Antifa protests last summer which were covered up by mainstream media and coined as 'mostly peaceful'). What next I wonder, genocide of white people in the West? Starting with 'evil and racist' Trump supporters, ofc. The Woke Left would love it.
Spoken brilliantly and perfectly, Alex!!! Malcom X said it best: “the white liberal is the devil; the Negroes who vote for them (Democrats) are CHUMPS!”
