NPR’s queen of the Karens
Washington Examiner ^ | 16 Apr 2024 | Conn Carroll

Sometimes, a person enters the public spotlight and is such an embodiment of an established stereotype that it seems impossible for him or her to be a real person. If Tom Wolfe wanted to capture the essence of arrogant, alienated progressivism, he would reject NPR’s new CEO, Katherine Maher, as too unbelievably on point.

...

t would be impossible to create a resume of a person more disconnected from Americans and more intertwined with the wealthy, urban, globalist elite who run the largest banks, media companies, and nonprofit groups in the United States. In other words, Maher has the perfect resume to run NPR.

And her tweets prove she is the perfect person for the job.

She’s a vegetarian. She hates cars. And white men flying on planes. She supports race-based reparations, rioting, and the Black Lives Matter movement. She believes “America is addicted to white supremacy.”

She doesn’t want to become a mother because “the planet is literally burning.” She uses phrases such as “CIS white mobility privilege” unironically. She admits to growing up “feeling superior … because I was from New England and my part of the country didn’t have slaves.” I wonder what fuels her sense of superiority now.

As completely out of touch as Maher’s views are with the rest of America, the scary part is how willing she is to use her ample power to snuff out dissenting voices.

Slavery was a dominant feature of the antebellum South, but it was also pervasive in the pre-Civil War North—the New England states of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island all have a history of slavery. In the early colonial period, Europeans invaded these lands and enslaved the Native people who lived there.

meh, idiot.

She admits to growing up “feeling superior … because I was from New England and my part of the country didn’t have slaves.”

Probably an apostate Catholic with a name like "Kathleen." Speaking as a Catholic, imho apostate Catholics are the most dangerous people on the planet.

Lots of easy to find evidence supporting that assertion.

Boston’s Faneuil Hall was a thriving market where slaves were sold. They may not have owned too many slaves in Massachusetts but they were happy to sell a whole bunch.

If NPR was so concerned about DEI why did they hire a upper class white heterosexual woman as CEO? How many boxes does she check. None. Someone else once noted, the farther down the intersectional totem poll a victim is, the more devoted to woke virtue signaling one must be.

And yet she wants to let more illegal aliens invade our country. The disconnect of Leftists is abundantly clear...

More so than apostate Jews or Mormons or Protestants?
