WOKE WATCH: Paris politician tells whites to shut up on racism
Toronto Sun ^ | March 30, 2021 | Brad Hunter

No, an army of liberal arts college grads haven’t invaded France.

But like the last time the country was invaded, a politician wants to torpedo freedom of speech.

Paris’s deputy mayor has triggered outrage by demanding that white people be banned from discussing racism.

No, really.

Left-wing Deputy Mayor Audrey Pulvar, 49, has clear views on the topic.

“(White people should) be asked to keep quiet and be silent spectators during discussions around racism attended by Black and ethnic minority people,” Pulvar said.

She added: “People who suffer discrimination for the same reasons and in the same way feel the need to meet among themselves to discuss it.”

The mayor’s comments come on the heels of France wrestling with the emergence of American woke culture in the home of Voltaire.

Various academics said last month the country was being “contaminated” by the American left’s obsession with race, gender and post-colonialism.

Even former socialist prime minister Manuel Valls called Pulvar’s comments a betrayal of French values, The Times of London reports.

“This rhetoric, always justifying the victim, leads to disaster … Do you have to be Jewish to talk about anti-Semitism?” Valls said on Europe 1 Radio.

The emergence of American “woke culture” threatens the very fabric of the country, Valls added.

In a book published in February, social scientists Stephane Beaud and Gerard Noiriel argued that race is a “bulldozer” that destroys all other subjects.

And because France has a secular government, the authors don’t believe race should be studied as a subject in the academy.

Blacks are BY FAR the most racist, color conscious people in America.
No, I will not shut up and defer to blacks on this. My experience will not allow it.

“Woke” culture isn’t American. A more correct term would be fascist “woke” culture.

Then stolen by the international left to defeat right wing racist democracies so they can put in place rule for the good of the People rather than rule of the people by the people and for the people.

I have heard that sometimes women will have an orgasm while being raped. It’s not that they like it. It’s that their body is being stimulated and they can’t help it. It’s like being tickled when you really and seriously don’t want to, but you still laugh.

The body you are occupying is simply responding to stimulus while you feel horribly violated.

exactly! the whole point of using race as a divider is to silence any dissent.

Shut up, Whitey!

No dissent. Resistance is futile.

See you in the camps.

He forgot to include dissenting black people. They are very dangerous to the Left.

Wasn't she one of those Frenchies drawing obscene pictures of Muhammad?

Paris Muslims should know ...

The BJS report finds Blacks commit a disproportionate number of hate crimes against Asians. About 28% of violent offenders against Asian victims are Black compared to only 24% of Asians. Blacks make up only 13% of the population.
