Oh, the irony.


On the other hand, they did mention these as terrible white traits, as well:


  • Avoid conflict, intimacy
  • Don't show emotion
  • Be polite


I guess, what they're saying is....civility is a white trait, which does sound racist to me.

Stuff like this pretty much renders the SJW movement completely obsolete in my book. It's totally obvious that a huge percentage of that stuff really is fueled by hatred and anti-white sentiment and is not about principles or equality whatsoever. There's no way any reasonable person should take woke culture seriously when it's so completely clear that it's hypocritical and racist at its core.

You know Fox Entertainment is owned by Far Left DISNEY, right? Not related to Fox News at all. Educate yourself or continue to sound less than intelligent.

Today it was announced that Nick Cannon would be taking time away from his radio show to "commit (himself) to deeper, more thorough reflection and education.”

Translation: His PR team recommended he lie low for a while and pretend he's going to do some work on himself.

Well, Mel Gibson was able to weather through the storm, maybe Nick will be able to do the same. I'm kind of surprised that Nick, while being around people of all back grounds in the industry would go off on what was a rant right out of Louis Farrakhan's sermons. I think most non-black people would be surprised at how many black people admire and Follow Farrakhan. Half the Black Caucus and our old President Obama himself being among his Admirers and Enablers.

Mel had to sit in the corner for a while, but yes, he did make his way back. Even if Nick Cannon doesn't make it back to tv beyond his current gig on whatever show he's on (the name of which escapes me), he'll be fine. He'll come back and do the apology tour and all will be forgiven.

That's disturbing that Farrakhan has high profile admirers and followers, but nothing is shocking anymore.

Gibson was drunk when he did it. That is somewhat of an excuse but we do know how he feels.

MSNBC or the democrats will hire Cannon just like they promote the bigot Al Sharpton and the homophobe Joy Reid

The best part about this is that several years ago laws were enacted that it made it a federal offense to assault any airport employee.

Talk about true privilege in America.

Say vile racist things and face little to no repercussions, while someone disagreeing with BLM gets crucified and fired from their jobs.
