Ibram X. Kendi: Term ‘Legal Vote’ Is Functionally Racist
Breitbart ^ | 11/12/20 | Thomas D. Williams

Posted on 11/13/2020 2:23:42 PM PST by Roman_War_Criminal

Critical race theorist Ibram X. Kendi declared this week that the expression “legal vote” used to describe votes cast in conformity with U.S. laws is “functionally racist.”

“The term ‘legal vote’ is as fictionally fraught and functionally racist as the terms ‘illegal alien’ and ‘race neutral’ and ‘welfare queen’ and ‘handouts’ and ‘super predator’ and ‘crackbaby’ and ‘personal responsibility’ and ‘post racial,’” Kendi wrote on Twitter.

When Kendi added in a follow-up tweet, “There are so many more terms like this. What did I leave out?” his woke followers jumped on the bandwagon, insisting that any terms questioning the Left’s pet programs are necessarily racist.

According to one eager follower, other racist expressions would include “deadbeat dads,” “death taxes,” “big government,” “socialism,” “radical left,” “gay agenda,” “ivory tower,” “elites,” “looting,” “broken windows,” “pro-abortion,” “anti-religion,” “unwashed poor,” “anti-American,” “open borders,” “anti-police,” and “anchor baby.”

I will go one step further. WHY does the ballot have to be secret? When Senators elected are forced to show their hand, and Representives as well as Court Justices. Why can’t every ballot cast, be linked to a registry with a certified voter. The secret part of the ballot is killing us. I think people need to go on record who they support.

I think Ibram Kendi is functionally racist.

Newsflash: Not every damn thing is racist.

But of course. The legal speech of the citizen needs the final solution of robots voting...

These people are sick.

Tommy Sottomayor was right, Black Terminator 3000 is a real thing.
