Dem Rep. Pressley says it's 'not good enough' for white people to not be racist: 'Come on, Becky'

Rep. Ayanna Pressley says non-racist white people need to essentially become activists if they want to be considered culturally “good enough” in 2020.

The Massachusetts Democrat recently spoke with comedian Samantha Bee about the George Floyd protests, racism in America, and the role of “Karen” and “Becky” — blanket terms for all white women — moving forward.

“Everyone will say, ‘Well, you know, I’m not a racist,’” Ms. Pressley told the host for a recent “Full Frontal” interview. “Yeah, great. That’s not good enough. What you need to be is anti-racist. And that means being intentional and deliberate and unapologetic and dismantling structural racism and systemic oppression, and not being afraid to call it what it is: white supremacy.”

Not good enough not to be racist. In addition we must stop and ask forgiveness at every porch in the inner city.

Not gonna happen.

Go #### yourself b.tch.

I don’t owe a DAM THING to ANY black person.

Except maybe a knockout punch if they ask me to kneel and/or say i’m sorry.

I’ll be damned if I have to Prove anything or Help any SILLY CAUSE I don’t believe in.

And To my fellow Italian Americans who are getting slammed by the mayor and DA for protecting the Columbus Statue in Philly..keep it up!!

We better be prepared because if this venom from the left, especially WOC, is heightened to the presidency, it will be a daily charade of the View meets Oprah Winfrey meets BLM in every aspect of our being like nothing we have seen. Barack Obama’s presidency will seem vanilla by comparison.

Massachusetts has the filthiest,dirtiest,most despicable Congressional delegation of all the 50 states.And in November one of our two filthy Senators is sure to be replaced by a Kennedy (yah,*those* Kennedys) who is even filthier than the current one.
