Looks like New York City, the state and the newspaper all have to change their names too. They are named after the Duke of York who basically founded the international slave trade.

The Left assigns strawman motivation to their enemies. They will not debate against their opponent's real positions.

They always pretend to have the moral high ground.

Just imagine if the NYT had framed the story “Why does the U.S. military celebrate Democrats?” since none of the bases in question were named after Republicans.

The racists at the NYTimes trying to falsely tag others as racists. Funny.

“The NYT is filled with racists of every race. What they all have in common is hatred of the white race.”

I bet that if someone did a search of the headlines/stories printed in the NYT over the last 150 years you would find a vast number of overtly racist/white supremacist articles. That would put these leftist SOBs on the defensive and show the world their history of racism.

Journalists whose views are informed by expertise, research, debate and certain longstanding values.

And remember junk bonds are a good investment too along with electric fly swatters.

Personally, I do not lend any credence at all to those who opine on the military, who could never be bothered to serve in the military. It’s on an equal par to the democRATs who constantly want to wax eloquent on matters of Christianity, Morals, Honor, Duty, Decency and Integrity. They, by and large, no not of which they speak. I do not permit such people to waste my time.

And of course, we respond to this by not defining the differences between white supremacy, white pride, racism, identarianism, etc. etc. Which means we let the NYT define our terms for us... which means we lose.

“opinion journalists whose views are informed by expertise, research, debate and certain longstanding values,..”

First, they are not journalists. They are propagandists. Second, They are not informed by expertise, research and debate, but simply their longstanding “values”. And what are those values — radical liberalism. The Times can’t be honest about anything because the Times is a radical, leftist propaganda machine that is useless for actually informing the American people on any subject.

Ironic that the left and NYT propagandists do this when more and more leftists/communists/socialists join the military for no other reason than to enhance their political resumes (Tulsi Gabbard is the perfect example of this) and then exploit their military service and have lots of photo ops taken in uniform when they run for office.

Stateside US Army bases are usually named for someone from the state in which they are located.

To the NYT, all the founding fathers were racist traitors.

Which is why I still struggle with the order and sequence of their trials and hangings.

I know they are after the politicians, but should they be before, or after the professors?

Precisely !

Hypocrisy is the foundational stone of the socialist left.

Readers of The New York Times don’t know who the Duke of York was.

Nor do they know that Brown and Yale universities were also named after men who amassed their considerable fortunes in the slave trade.

Among them is Fort Bragg in North Carolina, which was named for General Braxton Bragg, long considered by historians of the south to have been a disastrous leader during the Civil War.

That could be why we named the fort after him.
