Left-wing author Ibram Kendi, author of the book "How to Be An Antiracist," triggered a tsunami of backlash on Saturday after suggesting that Amy Coney Barrett adopted to Haitian children to shield herself from accusations of racism.
What did Kendi say?
Kendi responded to a purported picture of Barrett with her two adopted Haitian children. The photo, however, was not of Barrett.
Some White colonizers "adopted" Black children. They "civilized" these "savage" children in the "superior" ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity.
And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point. It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can't be racist.
I'm challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently "not racist" and the bots completely change what I'm saying to "White parents of kids of color are inherently racist." These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let's not argue with them.
What was the response? Although Kendi did not specifically accuse Barrett of using her Haitian children as "props" to hide accusations of racism, many believed the implications of his comments were very clear and, ironically, racist.
"Are you suggesting that any white family who adopts black children are colonizers and that interracial adoption is somehow evil? Please clarify because if this is your position, it's an evil one," one person responded.
"Kinda sounds like you're projecting some weird racist s**t onto it idk man," another person said. "You ever thought that just maybe race is irrelevant to some people when it comes to loving another human.. Crazy I know," another person responded.
"Or two orphaned Haitian children are adopted by a white family who love these children as if they are their own and are loved by aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins they otherwise would never have known," another person said.
"Ibram you going to adopt a starving child from Haiti or just b***h about white people adopting a child & giving them a opportunity they wouldn't ever have in poverty," another person said.
One person mocked, "'I wish those black kids had stayed in their Haitian orphanage instead of coming to America,"'said the anti-racist." "This person is a disgusting racist. Period," another person said.
Sen. Tom Cotton said, "Ibram Kendi launches a cruel, racist attack against Judge Barrett and her family. But what else would we expect from a fraud like him?" On Saturday, President Donald Trump officially nominated Barrett to be the next Supreme Court justice.
And my school district (Fairfax County Virginia) just paid this joker $20,000 for a one hour “talk”.
Proving once again leftism is a mental illness...
If you DON’T adopt black kids you’re racist and if you DO adopt black kid your racist. Pretty foolproof actually.
Smoke screen . Dont let them get away with excusing RBGs racism.
They think she’s trying for the “Hey, some of my best children are black” defense?
They paid him $20,000 to insult them and call them racists?
I can do that and it will cost them only $15,000.
Exposed for what he is. Not a virtuous, enlightened racial reconciler. Simply a racist who has dark skin. Racists come in all colors.
Charge of lesbianism in 3... 2... 1...
...that’s how THE LEFT views situations like this - - that is a LEFTIST opinion — the rest of us - adopt because a child needs a home and a future - a conservative future at that!
Will be fun to watch this blow up in their faces.
The other line of attack I see coming is that Amy is "subservient" to her husband Jesse and that it will actually be Jesse calling the shots from the sidelines (with regard to Supreme Court decisions). (This was one reason Amy got behind the wheel of the mini-van yesterday.)
This will blow up in their faces too.
Other than that, they've got nothing but her Catholic faith to attack and that won't play well either.
I can see why Trump held her back for the Ginsberg nomination. Amy is about as bullet-proof as a SC nominee can be during these times.
Romans 1:28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.
Romans 1:29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips,
Romans 1:30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents;
Romans 1:31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
Romans 1:32 Although they know Gods righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
And if you’re Hillary Clinton... ..you develop a charity in Haiti, steal all the money, and sex traffic the kids.
It's like the "global warming" scam.
If it's hot outside - global warming!
If it's cold outside - global warming!
What an insane world we live in where some evil dude with venom gets paid $20k per hour to spill his racism.
I’ve said this many times, but I truly believe the Left is Demon Possessed and is throwing all the stops with constant lying, falsehoods, propaganda, racism, murder, and destruction to eradicate Judeo-Christianity from the planet.
This trash speaks like he is a true member of the Luciferian Church of Satan.
Anybody who would have a problem with a couple adopting children from a poverty stricken nation to bring them up (yes I said it) should be institutionalized at the minimum.
Damn, I just posted a comment on Breitbart stating that I am betting the commies accuse her of racism because a sex assault accusation will be too ridiculous to believe, and here we go! As predictable as the sun rising. There is no level low enough they will not go, they are just absolute utter scum of the earth.
Popcorn! As trekkies would say, he was hoisted on his own Picard
