L.A. Times Continues Questioning Larry Elder’s Claim to Be Black
breitbart ^ | 10 Sep 2021 | JOEL B. POLLAK

The Los Angeles Times continued its racial attack on California gubernatorial challenger Larry Elder (R), this time on the news pages rather than in the opinion pages, with an article questioning his ties to the local black community.

The article, by Donovan X. Ramsey, is titled, “Larry Elder calls himself ‘Sage From South Central.’ But his ties to Black L.A. are fraught.”

Ramsey cites “critics” of Elder who “say he’s the Black face of white supremacy and his proposals would harm Black and Latino Californians” — linking to the Times‘ own opinion column, “Larry Elder is the Black face of white supremacy. You’ve been warned.”

The article follows the editorial line that black people with conservative political views can never be accepted as black. “I think most Black people know that Larry Elder is a sellout,” one person is quoted as saying.

Some who support Elder’s campaign against incumbent Gov. Gavin Newsom in the recall are quoted as well, though the article concludes: “Elder, by far the leading candidate to replace Newsom if the recall passes, is unlikely to triumph based on how people in his old neighborhood will vote. Then again, his success never depended much on what people in places like South L.A. thought about him.”

In a separate article, the Times described a physical attack on Elder on Wednesday by a white woman wearing a gorilla mask as if Elder were the aggressor, or somehow involved in the fight.

The tweet for the article depicted Elder with his hand on a white woman’s face, as if to underscore the point.

Video of the event showed that Elder was attacked from behind and never responded, as security whisked him away.

The Times issued an apology last year for “systemic racism” throughout its history.

Those critics of Larry Elder are invariably white liberals. White liberals get to decide who is and isn't black in this country.

You have to be a Commie to be truly black. That Karl Marx threw around the N word -- in English -- in his letters to Engels and thought blacks were dumber than Whites because they lived on inferior soils is something we can ignore when read or mention the secular god, Karl Marx.

White lefties are the slave-owners.

Everyone else, regardless of color, is their slave.

It is getting kinda obvious.

It drives liberals crazy to think a Black person can be a conservative. Blacks are simply supposed to coddle to Democrats and be thankful for the social programs that have kep Blacks in the hood for decades.

That's a lot of assumptions that racist person makes.

I can’t speak for what black Californians think of Elder, but I don’t think he can win in the radical state California has become. So I voted for Faulconer, who is at least a known quantity to me. I wish it were different, but you work with the electorate you have, not the electorate you wish you had.

I highly doubt most “real blacks” i.e. the brotha’s, can even read a newspaper....

But it makes the white LA elites feel good.

Did you just hear that thunder. I am struck.

What defines a white person, or a black? It has come to be that this is pretty much what you want to call yourself, and nobody else gets to set that definition.

Larry Elder declares himself a black person, and from just a visual standpoint, that appears to be a true statement. Nut now comes along someone claiming that he is not really black, but an “Oreo”, black on the outside, white on the inside. Ah, that old game of redefining things, and especially, defining deviancy down. REAL black people, in the minds of these people so fond of redefining things, would never be conservative in their outlook.

That is so cuffing racist, it cannot even leave room for any other definition.

The elite slave-masters get to define the meaning of words, like the Queen in Alice in Wonderland.

The slaves must quickly adjust to the new meanings, or they get the lash!

Biden: “You ain’t black”
“Larry Elder is a sellout”

In the insane mind of the left, there are blacks, and fake blacks. You can’t be a real black if you think for yourself, work hard, believe in individual rights, refuse to blame Whitey for all your problems.
If you are a successful black, you aren’t a genuine black, they think.

The left has created a perpetual victim group, and to make the group grow in number, it keeps the members poor and without hope, and directs their anger at Whitey.

Kiley, by far the best candidate to replace Newsom, when the recall passes, is likely to triumph based on how people in northern California will vote.
