Pro-Trump cartoonist Scott Adams pulled the mask all the way off this week, declaring on his podcast that white people should “get the hell away from Black people” while labeling African-Americans as a “hate group.”
Adams, who has written the satirical office comic strip Dilbert for more than three decades, said during his Coffee with Scott Adams online video program that current polling proves that there is “no fixing” the current racial tension in America and that whites should live in largely segregated neighborhoods.
Citing a recent Rasmussen survey showing 53 percent of Black people agree with the phrase “It’s okay to be white,” which the Anti-Defamation League has deemed a hate slogan, Adams said on Wednesday that this was the “first political poll that ever changed my activities” while launching into an overtly racist rant.
“I’ve been identifying as Black for a while because I like to be on the winning team,” the right-wing culture warrior sarcastically noted. “And I like to help. I always thought if you help the Black community, that’s sort of the biggest lever, you could find the biggest benefit.”
He added: “But it turns out that nearly half of that team doesn’t think I’m okay to be white. Which is why I identified as Black so I could be on the winning team for a while.”
Turning back to the poll results, Adams said he’s now “going to re-identify as white” because he doesn’t “want to be a member of a hate group,” which he claimed he had “accidentally joined” with his trollish Black identification. “If nearly half of all Blacks are not okay with white people—according to this poll, not according to me, according to this poll—that’s a hate group,” Adams proclaimed.
From there, Adams urged white viewers to completely segregate themselves from Black Americans.
“I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from Black people,” the 65-year-old author exclaimed. “Just get the f*** away. Wherever you have to go, just get away. Because there’s no fixing this. This can’t be fixed.”
Reiterating that whites need to “escape,” Adams said that he had already done so by moving to an area “with a very low Black population.” He then cited to justify his assertion that there’s a “correlation” between a “mostly Black” neighborhood and “a bunch of problems he didn’t see” in majority-white areas.
“So I don’t think it makes any sense as a white citizen of America to try to help Black citizens anymore,” Adams huffed. “It doesn’t make sense. There’s no longer a rational impulse. So I’m going to back off on being helpful to Black America because it doesn’t seem like it pays off.”
He continued: “The only outcome is I get called a racist. That’s the only outcome. It makes no sense to help Black Americans if you’re white. It’s over. Don’t even think it’s worth trying.”
Later in the program, he again said you “just need to get away from them,” especially “those who don’t want to focus on education.” Adams followed that up by saying he’s “really sick of seeing video after video of Black Americans beating up non-Black citizens,” insisting that it’s “every damn day” he sees a clip of “some Black person beating the shit out of some white person.”
The Dilbert creator has seemingly embraced more radical positions former President Donald Trump to Jesus in late 2015. Since then, he’s openly while dipping his toes into. Outside of, Adams also that if Joe Biden won the presidential election, there was a “good chance” Republicans would be hunted down and “dead within a year.”
Last year, Adams introduced a Black character for the first time in his strip’s 33-year existence, though it seemed it was largely to poke fun at “woke” culture and the LGBTQ community. The character’s plotline revolved around his identifying as white, only for management to ask if he could also identify as gay.
Amid the incorporation of the anti-”woke” plot lines, Dilbert was from 77 newspapers by publisher Lee Enterprises. Adams, for his part, claimed the move “was part of a larger overhaul” of comic syndication. At the same time, however, he also said it’s “possible” the strip was pulled for other reasons.
“Do you think they flipped coins to decide what to keep and what to delete? It wasn't about popularity or cost. (That I know.),” . The cartoonist has also that his short-lived television series was canceled from UPN because he’s white.
From watching the video, and his demeanor, I'm pretty certain he's not facetious.
It's not something you joke about in these times. Ever. Because the Woke mob WILL be trying to destroy you. I suspect this is his resignation rant to all the newspapers that carry his strip, because by tomorrow afternoon, no paper will carry it.
I moved from a Southern town that is 77% black to a Midwest town than is 98% White. Can’t begin to tell y’all how different EVERYTHING is. 😊
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait.
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show.
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud.
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddenly bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date.
That the Saxon began to hate.
Like Chris Rock said, there are black people and there are naggers. He says he hates naggers, and I can understand why. Too bad a lot of good blacks have to suffer because of the behavior of the naggers, but its just too hard a lot of times to sort them out. The good blacks need to take control of the bad actors, but as far as I’m concerned its about a 50-50 split and so it will never happen. Sad. By the way Chris Rock didn’t call them “naggers” he used the genuine N-word.
Can Daily (leftist) Beast or someone here that knows the new English language please explain these sentences for me? Seems like there's some words missing.
Thanks
>>I suspect this is his resignation rant
I’m guessing you’re right. I watched him thru the Trump years and was impressed by his intellect and skimmed over his need to appear controversial. It was good publicity for his cartoons. But he had a strong set of beliefs he used humor to try to push, and the world has become so fractured that he was attacked more than he saw any support for what he believed.
So I always thought of him as a smart kid acting out. Just going more and more outrageous to try to get attention for those beliefs. But he doesn’t seem to understand that the farther out on a limb you stand while shouting, the more likely it is that you’ll fall and not fly.
Nouns and verbs, mostly.
“The good blacks need to take control of the bad actors”
They have had thousands of years and almost all of a continent (Africa) and haven’t figured it out yet.
Don’t hold your breath.
I’m interested in somebody following up on this alleged “hate speech” that is referenced by an organization called the “anti defamation league”.
I don’t understand. Can they clarify exactly what they mean by this? I can only agree that it is not OK to be white? Why is not OK to be white, specifically?
Oh, yeah. He killed Dilbert with this.
Fortunately, Scott Adams has plenty of "F*** you" money.
Yep. Like many here, I've had black co-workers who were perfectly cordial and of whom I had a good opinion. But over all, I'm content to retreat to the small white town I now live in. I'm just tired of it all.
I recently watched a youtube video wherein a young black American was talking about the "micro-aggressions" he's experienced, and one of them is that when white people who don't know him walk past him (in hallways, on sidewalks, etc) they give him this grimace--thinning their lips and giving him a nod--and he doesn't know what it means, but he knows he doesn't like it.
Thing is, I think it's just a white mannerism and I'm pretty sure we do it to each other too. It's awkward, but we're like that. But really, nothing we do makes them happy. Nothing. So yeah... why bother trying anymore?
I put Scott Adams in the same pile as Alex Jones. Right 90% of the time.
LOL - a glance at the keywords tells me that somebody isn’t happy about this article being posted.
So a slim majority believe it’s fine that white people exist - I suggest the other 47 percent stfu.
Is there another link to his video other than Twitter? Unfortunately I am banned, because I wrote the truth to a bunch of trannies. My computer is identified...
I don’t remember “love your neighbor as yourself” having anything to do with race or nationality or any other category.
The parable of the man who fell among thieves tells us our neighbor is anyone who needs us; that’s the criterion, not anything else. Nothing to do with categories—except that the Samaritan who did the helping was not fully accepted by others at that time.
“So a slim majority believe it’s fine that white people exist - I suggest the other 47 percent stfu.”
We need the 47 percent speaking their minds—need to end the myth that diversity is our strength.
He’s already 65 and in the last portion of his life. He’s probably at the point of “F it; I ain’t playing this game anymore” to keep up appearances.
I don’t see this race problem getting better any time soon. Sure, there will be individuals of different races who will get along, but on the whole, the govt and media just keep piling on whites more with each passing year. I suspect Adams won’t be the only white person who will express a similar epiphany in public the way things are going. The whole thing’s a shame, but whites aren’t going to just keep rolling over and taking this crap day in-day out.
I am very afraid that at some point white people will just snap, say “screw it” and start indiscriminately shooting black people.
I pray that day never comes, but I see some individuals coming dangerously close to that point.
