As the story surrounding Sarah Jeong’s anti-white shamefulness unfolds it only gets worse, and it goes directly to the bifurcation of our country that comes from the stew of leftist hierarchy identity politics, anti-Americanism and a now openly dishonest and partisan media.
The progressive defense of the Times’ hiring a bigot, particularly by the media, is an awesome display of the power and terror unleashed through the hierarchy of identity politics, because a different writer hired by the Times in February found to be using gay slurs was fired within hours. But not only is Jeong not being fired, the wagons have tightly circled across the media landscape.
Yes, because in the poisonous identity hierarchy, lesbians are far more aggrieved and therefore have greater rights and power than whites, which are at the bottom of the hierarchy — seriously, this has been taught on college campuses around the country for years — there is a built-in, intended and defended double-standard. Want to know the reason for the rise of the Alt Right and white nationalism? Read on.
As is now well-known, the New York Times this week announced the hiring of Sarah Jeong to sit on their editorial board and write editorials. This board forms the newspaper’s daily opinions. About 30 seconds after the announcement, Twitter exploded with some of Jeong’s breathtakingly hateful and bigoted tweets against whites and white males. She is Korean-born and the Times must have known of these.
We have to have a quick and ugly sampling, from roughly 2014-2015, so hardly ancient writings:
“Dumba** f***ing white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants”
“Are white people genetically predisposed to burn faster in the sun, thus logically being only fit to live underground like groveling goblins”
“oh man it’s kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men”
“White people have stopped breeding. You’ll all go extinct soon. This was my plan all along.”
“White people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants”
“#CancelWhitePeople”
There’s more from the Times’ new bigot. For normal Americans, these tweets are a gasp, and surely spelled her doom. When the Times announced the hiring of Quinn Norton in February, it was discovered that she had used the gay slur “fag” and “faggot” repeatedly. She herself is a lesbian and gay rights activist, and was using the term toward other gays on Twitter in the same way that blacks use the N word with other blacks. It’s all quite despicable. The Times high moral code forced it to fire Norton within hours of announcing the hiring.
But a funny thing happened with Jeong’s anti-white bigotry tweets. The Times’ high moral code is not kicking in to fire her, and much of the media, all of the left-wing media, is defending the Times’ keeping Jeong onboard. In fact, publication after publication is attacking the “organized conservative Twitter trolls” and urging the Times to stand firm.
The Washington Post blames conservative media — not Jeong:
“Without evidence that they had any bearing on Jeong’s extensive body of work, which includes a book she wrote about online harassment, these statements could have perhaps been unceremoniously dismissed as insignificant. But after conservative media seized on the story Thursday, they ignited a firestorm of debate…Jeong’s episode has also raised complicated questions about the stubborn nature of harassment that women of color face online.”
I’m waiting for the Post to write about what Michelle Malkin endures daily. She’s Filipino. Or maybe Candace Owens. She’s black. But they’re conservative, so again…meh.
The Huffington Post called on the Times to just ignore the critics:
“The proper way to respond to a bad-faith troll campaign like the one the right-wing internet is waging on Sarah Jeong, the newest member of The New York Times editorial board, is to not respond at all, to not even listen in the first place…But ignore the trolls you must. This includes the gleeful, snickering chuds who strip old tweets of their context and send them back out into the world. And this also includes the establishment figures like Ari Fleischer and publications like the National Review, the folks wailing about an Asian woman’s “anti-white racism,” as if there were such a thing.”
There’s more of the identity politics. Racism isn’t racism. Only whites can be racist. Minorities by this new definition, cannot be. Because whites are at the bottom of the aggrievement scale. This is how the new bigot thinks.
The huge tech site The Verge, encouraged newsrooms everywhere to stand against the hate — not Jeong’s, mind you, but the hate of those who are calling out her tweets and the Times’ hiring of her.
“…as the editors of The Verge, we want to be clear: this abusive backlash is dishonest and outrageous…journalists have been increasingly targeted by people acting in bad faith who do not care about the work they do, the challenges they face, or the actual context of their statements…it’s time other newsrooms learn to spot these hateful campaigns for what they are: attempts to discredit and undo the vital work of journalists who report on the most toxic communities on the internet.”
Jezebel magazine was ticked the Times responded at all, thinking they should have ignored the outcry as other media outlets encouraged:
“The trolls have largely concerned themselves with Jeong’s fairly innocuous tweets about white people.”
Their meaning of “innocuous” is different from mine.
The Cut considered her tweets harmless:
“Many of Jeong’s tweets that the right dug up dated back five years, and were harmless jokes about conservative white people.”
But “fag” used by a gay person toward other gay people was so harmful as to be a firing offense? Yes. Identity politics. She was the wrong kind of bigot — if one at all. Jeong is the right kind of bigot.
The list of defenders goes on and on. Jeong will not only keep her job and take her place in the pantheon of modern progressive regressives on the Times’ editorial board, she will become a hero on the Left. Worse, though, is that more people will be emboldened to think and talk hatefully like her — as long as their bigotry is correctly targeted. That is the lesson between Norton and Jeong.
And I’m sorry to say that “correctly targeted” means at white people.
Hence the rise of the alt right and white nationalism — two small but dangerous movements — is actually just more identity politics driven by the left. Bigotry begets bigotry. A few short decades ago, we were trending away from the day of the bigot.
Again, all of this ends really, really badly if there is not a sea change in the culture.
Her boss better be careful if he’s white she will keep a log on him before the back stabbing starts.
It’s most definitely a slippery slope ...
Apply the “Other Foot” test.
Had she said this about any group other than Whites, would the failing NYT: A) Have hired her; and B) Be defending her so vigorously?
Actually, it’s great for us—More Leftist hypocrisy on display.
The reason they have $200k in student loan debt is because baby boomers defunded public universities after going for virtually free compared to today’s tuition rates. A lot of the animosity comes frol how baby boomers have double dipped, first receiving free stuff and then pulling the ladder up behind them to avoid paying taxes.
“Hence the rise of the alt right and white nationalism — two small but dangerous movements — is actually just more identity politics driven by the left.”
I believe “white nationalism” is a pejorative term invented by the leftwing media. Like similar, made-up, pseudo-intellectual, politicization of linguistics, such as “homophobia”, it should be rejected. It is merely a means of hijacking the conversation and manipulating public opinion.
Nationalism is a good thing, like patriotism. It is about putting your country first. As Trump pointed out in his U.N. speech, it is the DUTY of nation’s political leaders to look out for the interests of the people they represent.
The globalists hate nationalism. So, this made-up term is a two-fer. Attack whites and nationalism with a single pejorative. I’m surprised they didn’t think of it sooner.
I am white. I am a nationalist. I am not a “white nationalist”, whatever that is supposed to mean. In fact, what is it supposed to mean?
Would they have us believe that “white nationalism” is a mainstream movement—not some lunatic, fringe group of minuscule numbers—but a group big enough to be a real threat? What is the supposed belief of “white nationalism”? That “white nationalists” want to turn America into a white-only nation?
That is completely nonsensical. This exists only in the fringes of society, where you can find anything you want to find if you look for it long enough. And those promoting this claim should be locked up in mental institutions, because it makes the most hair-brained conspiracy theories look rational.
And what makes it worse than mental illness is that it is a way to malign conservatives and stir up racial hostility toward whites (or really, all kinds of racial hostility). “White nationalism” is a term embraced by two groups: leftwing race-baiters and white supremacists who see this term as an opportunity to rebrand their cause.
I for one am sick and tired of the race-peddlers on the left getting away with their blood libel.
Look for ways to take their money away and starve the beast. File lawsuits for discrimination if you, a White person, have applied for a job you are qualified for and have been shunted aside for an unqualified person of a protected class. Look for ways to fight them and break them.
When they say Racist ,just say Sarah Jeong
I think that someone should point out that the “remains” in the boxes newly arrived from NORTH Korea, contained the earthly remnants of AMERICAN MALES, predominently WHITE who gave up their lives to kepp HER stinking country free.
This is how she and the damned TImes thanks the fallen dead and their families.
This stupid b***h and her bosses better start counting the cancellations of their “bird cage carpet.”
Yes, there were many casualties who were BLACK and their service is likewise honored. In this case, however the vitriol from the TImes is pointed to WHITES only. I think the TIMES are the real bigots.
i’m embarrassed for her parents.
Everyone should just refer to her as “Sarah ‘David Duke’ Jeong”.
Is this the moments that sane white people finally realize that there’s a war against them and that they better start fighting back?
And that the leaders of that war are self loathing, guilt ridden white people, like the ones that own and run the NYT and all the other propaganda organs and indoctrination camps.
This imbecile, hating little twirp they hired is the product of their making. She was marinated in their white hating, male bashing sauce.
NYT is within its rights to hire her.
We are happy to go on ignoring the NYT.
Send this little Beyotch a poodle and a wok, “Congratulations on your new job” LMAO
Was it due to "baby boomers" or was it state legislatures who were dealing with budget crises like rising infrastructure costs due to uncontrolled immigration, or unfunded public employee pensions, or people leaving high-cost states and taking their taxes elsewhere?
Take California, for example. Was it "baby boomers" who decided to fund the bullet train? Was it baby boomers who increased the cost of corrections and health care (e.g., more illegal aliens in hospitals and prisons)? Was it baby boomers who caused the flattening of wages during the Obama years, and resulting stagnation in income taxes?
From this article, California reduced its public university funding by 29.3% from 2008 to 2013, but raised tuitions by 72%. Florida reduced public funding by 41.2%, but raised tuition by 67.3%. In Washington state, funding was reduced by 37.5%, yet tuition rose by 63.6%.
Based on the above, there is more going on than defunding of public universities, whether caused by "boomers" or not.

Identity politics is today’s, and perhaps, has always been the name of the game. Whites better join the game or we, like the whites in Zimbabwe and South Africa will get buried.
You seem to be fine with national identity, but not with your racial identity which is an even more fundamental part of who you are. Why is that? Why wouldn’t you want to defend your white interests as strongly as your national interests? Today your whiteness is under constant attacks.
By the way, do you realize that the ones you call fringe, crazy, nut case white nationalists include Lincoln, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and many other prominent early Americans?
From the history of Liberia...
“In 1816, a group of white Americans founded the American Colonization Society (ACS) to deal with the “problem” of the growing number of free blacks in the United States by resettling them in Africa. The resulting state of Liberia would become the second (after Haiti) black republic in the world at that time.
Prominent Americans such as Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, and John Randolph were among the best known members of ACS. Former President Thomas Jefferson publicly supported the organization’s goals, and President James Madison arranged public funding for the Society.”
Funny, I can't seem to find the word "conservative" in any of her tweets.
“You seem to be fine with national identity, but not with your racial identity which is an even more fundamental part of who you are.”
Maybe I underestimated the amount of kookery that exists under the “white nationalist” brand name when a member of this forum seems to be defending it. Hopefully I’m misunderstanding your point.
I’m perfectly content being white. I have no white guilt. I neither believe being white makes me inferior or superior to anyone else.
I, like the founders, believe God created all men (meaning human persons, male and female) equal.
“By the way, do you realize that the ones you call fringe, crazy, nut case white nationalists include Lincoln, Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and many other prominent early Americans?”
Really? The term “white nationalist” in its current usage was coined in 1970. So your assertion is off by a couple of centuries. The founders WERE NATIONALISTS who were also WHITE. But that is my point. The term is combining two things to mean something entirely different from what either word means by itself.
“Today your whiteness is under constant attacks.”
Yeah, I think I said as much in the post to which you are replying.
But it is actually deeper than that, which I think you don’t realize. ALL racial identities are under attack. ALL nationalities are under attack. Globalists want to destroy national boundaries. They also use race as a way to divide and conquer.
Whites are being told they should feel guilty and be ashamed of their whiteness. We are even being told we are evil because of our color. Other ethnicities are also encouraged toward self-loathing. Usually it is by constantly being told they are helpless victims.
I believe in “borders, language, culture”. The biggest problem with illegal immigration (and even our current criteria for legal immigration) is how it is being used to alter the demographic makeup of our society as a means to control us.
“In 1816, a group of white Americans founded the American Colonization Society (ACS) to deal with the ‘problem’ of the growing number of free blacks in the United States by resettling them in Africa... Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, and John Randolph were among the best known members... Thomas Jefferson publicly supported the organization’s goals, and President James Madison arranged public funding for the Society.”
You mischaracterize the purpose of ACS, as if it was opposed to “free blacks”. The majority of its members were abolitionists. The movement ACS was based on came from Paul Cuffee, a mixed-race Quaker and abolitionist. He was also a Christian preacher who frequently spoke to multi-racial audiences in church.
I believe the founders you reference would be in agreement with me. I have far more in common with a black person who is a Christian than a white pagan. I have far more in common with black conservatives, like Alan West or Clarence Thomas, than I do with lily white Democrats like Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi (who jumped for joy when her white granddaughter wished she was brown).
America is the envy of the world because of her Christian roots that made her great. But we also have our problems which are due to the anti-Christian influences seeking to change our nation into something she was never meant to be. The people of other nations should learn from America’s success, as well as what we have that needs fixing. And it makes sense that far more people want to come here than want to leave for somewhere else. After all, we are the greatest nation on earth, in spite of our flaws. But when they come here, they need to support American greatness (the things that made us great) rather than trying to change America to be like the places they are fleeing.
The solution to our race problem is contained in our first amendment. Free speech and free religion allows hearts and minds to be changed. The only place in which different races and cultures can find true harmony is in the message of the Gospel of Christ, which is for ALL people, regardless of language, nationality, or race. Liberal multiculturalism is a Satanic imitation of this principle, and it only leads to destruction.
“Oh man it’s kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men,”
Think she’d be hired if she said “black”?
