RACIALYING: The Act Of Falsely Claiming Racism
Original Material | 11/16/2016 | By Laz A. Mataz

Posted on 11/16/2016 4:32:07 AM PST by Lazamataz

In the novel '1984', George Orwell developed a concept called 'NewSpeak', in which words were eliminated in order to prevent people from expressing a concept easily.

While we have not arrived there yet, I sought to find a word that expressed the false claiming of racism. I could find no such word. Therefore, I wish to coin one: Racialying.

Racialying (noun): 1. The act of falsely claiming a person, or group of people, are racists.

Racialying is an injurious and despicable act, but it is an act that has long been in the Democrat playbook. It has often been called 'playing the race card', but that is too weak a term. The word 'racialying' covers the concept much more powerfully. It is, in short, lying about racism and racist motivations.

The best example of racialying, recently, pertains to the coordinated attack of the MPM (the Ministry of Propaganda Media -- I refuse to call them the Main Stream Media any more), and is directed at Steve Bannon, who was appointed by Donald Trump to be his chief strategist and senior counselor. The racialying is contained in both the editorial and 'news' writings of CNN, NBC, and the New York Times. To wit:

An editorial published in CNN, in which Ruth Ben-Ghiat produces utterly no proof of Bannon's racism or misogyny, other than his stewardship in the Brietbart website:
Bannon is most famous for his stewardship of Breitbart, the right-wing media outlet that many liberal Americans first became aware of when its reporter, Michelle Fields, was manhandled by Trump's then-campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski. Fields then resigned when her employer tried to discredit her. This episode served as an introduction to one of Breitbart's, and Bannon's, central platforms: the denigration of women. Breitbart News uses misogyny as clickbait, blaring headlines like "There's No Hiring Bias Against Women in Tech: They Just Suck at Interviews.".... Bannon's appointment signals that racism will be a lever of the actions taken by the Trump administration. As a historian of fascism, I can tell you that Breitbart has been serving up a textbook-worthy campaign of racist indoctrination. Don't buy into it further. Otherwise, you're going to develop nearsightedness and a crick in your neck from looking away from things you'd rather not see.

In the editorial produced by the Editorial Board of the New York Times, they say:
To scroll through Breitbart headlines is to come upon a parallel universe where black people do nothing but commit crimes, immigrants rape native-born daughters, and feminists want to castrate all men. Here’s a sample:“Hoist It High and Proud: The Confederate Flag Proclaims a Glorious Heritage” (This headline ran two weeks after a white supremacist massacred nine black churchgoers in Charleston, S.C.)", “Birth Control Makes Women Unattractive and Crazy”, “Gabby Giffords: The Gun Control Movement’s Human Shield”

If you don’t find the headlines alarming, check the reader comments.


And in an alleged "news" article, NBC states:
Under Bannon's leadership, Breitbart espoused anti-Semitic and nationalist views. The site faced regular criticism — including from Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton — for its close ties to the "alt right," an online-based counterculture movement associated with white nationalism.

Note the common thread to the editorials: They do not actually quote Steve Bannon, they merely point to headlines and reader's comments. I'm sorry, but headlines are always written to provoke, and no person can ever be held accountable for a readers comments. This is racialying at its very worst. Even worse, the NBC 'news' story insinuates racism, produces no examples, then goes on to detail Democrat and liberal reactions. This is what passes for news at NBC??!?

Let us look at Steve Bannon's actual quotes, then. I looked at the most 'egregious' Bannon statements. I agree wholeheartedly with three of them, and the fourth is an allegation by a divorcing wife:

As far as the alleged quote by a divorcing wife, anyone who has been through a divorce -- or even been witness to one -- knows the first casualty is truth.

>In August 2016, when Bannon was hired to lead Trump's campaign, media outlets reported that his former wife had stated in divorce filings that Bannon had made derogatory statements about Jewish people. According to several news outlets, Mary Louise Piccard quoted him in 2007 divorce records as saying he didn't want the couple's children attending Archer School for Girls in Los Angeles because of the number of Jewish children there, :

The biggest problem he had with Archer is the number of Jews that attend... I told him that there are children who are Jewish at (a competing school), and he asked me what the percentage was. I told him that I didn't know because it wasn't an issue for me as I am not raising the girls to be either anti-Semitic or prejudiced against anyone.

The proof offered of Bannon's antisemitism? Only the word of a divorcing wife.

Racialying is a very serious and egregious offense against a person's character. It is time we use this label, and time we fight back against the lies. It is time that the person or group who commits the act of racialying, be held up to scorn, ridicule, and even slander and libel lawsuits.

Enough is enough.

Force them to publically explain the difference between a “white nationalist” and a “Caucasian Patriot”.

Re "Racialying":

To obtain such a term with the "-ing" ending gerund (noun) or participle (adjective), means it must have a verb parent. and that would mean also creating the infinitive "to racelie."

Laz, I doubt you can make this stick. It wouldn't likely become popular because it's too hard to spell, too ambiguous, and not very euphomius or self-descriptive.

You might want to go to a dictionary or thesaurus and find a synonym of "falsehood" that would work well as a verb when joined to "race." For instance, two a couple of coined terms might be "racefib" or "raceforge." You need to find something that will take the public's fancy and explain itself without having to break it down in lexicographical style to explain it.

Find something that implies assuming or projecting a false identity, like:

"He blackified himself by racefibbing into another pigmentated class."

Or something like that.

“Good idea. They are trying to turn patriotism into racism by calling us “white nationalists.””

And some doing this are the GOPe neverTrump crowd. Always among the first to adapt to political correctness

Thanks for your thoughts, but the English language is rife with inconsistent conjugation or other grammar constructs.

I’m sticking with this one. You’ve identified the different forms this word will take. They’re fine.

Don’t be a Wordpressor. :)

Laz - a lot of your stuff is good... but THIS IS BRILLIANT.

I havce another... Realized the other day I was a "racistX"...

What's a "racistX" you ask?

It's a person who is who able to see the serious crime and dependency problems within the black inner city community caused by elites wanting 'easy voters'.

Next time someone calls us "racists", we'll say "Yes we ARE, we're racistsX" (short for racistsNot)

An addition.

Every conservative and/or supporter of President-elect Donald Trump should get used to the following:

President Donald Trump could nominate Jesus Christ, himself, and all of his disciples, including St. Peter and Moses, to be in his cabinet and the ‘Never Trumpers/GOPe/RINOs’, dim, left, lib, socialist, communist, progressive, authoritarian, totalitarians would holler and scream. They would find fault even after witnessing Jesus walking on water and parting the Red Sea.

Sad but true: Get used to it. We’ll have to hear it for at least four years and hopefully eight as long as he is not swayed by the people who have already said that Mr. Trump should ‘negotiate’ with these same hacks.
