Apparently it is again okay to use the pejorative “uppity” against Americans who are members of a racial minority group. Ted Cruz is a historic Senator and presidential candidate, the first Cuban-American to join either club, and for that reason (and his unapologetic conservatism) the media is out for blood. The New Yorker went so far as to describe Cruz with the racial pejorative “uppity.”
The conventional wisdom is that Cruz hasn’t got a chance, and, as far as the Presidency goes, it’s probably accurate. To many Americans, he is the uppity loudmouth who, in the fall of 2013, less than a year into his first term as a senator, helped bring the federal government to a halt.

Uppity is what we need to counter the sanctimonious blowhards who advocate surrendering the country to illegal alien invaders.

Of course, this statement isn’t racist in any way because the writer works for the New Yorker.

It's called "controlling the terms of debate."
There are all kinds of words and concepts that liberals think are fine for them, but racist/sexist/homophobic for others to use.

Uppity?
To them, Ted Cruz should be mowing their lawns. Like any good Hispanic.
The New Yorker is racist and bigoted.

If you’re talking about intellect and talent and comparing himself to you, I’d say you’re right.

Well, we’ve already had a high-tech lynching for uppity Blacks. Why not one for Hispanics?
