MRCTV / YouTube ^ | 8/31/2018 | Media Research Center

Gubernatorial Candidate Ron DeSantis said that Floridians shouldn't "monkey it up" by electing a socialist candidate and his policies. As is common with the left, they decided that the word "monkey" must describe the race of DeSantis' opponent and they labeled him a racist. So what does it mean that the left uses the word very, very frequently.

Speaking is racist, for a Republican. The left has turned the English language into a minefield for normal people. Some words are now used to trap and eliminate right-thinking people. If you say one of those words, or one like it, the trap is sprung and you are dead meat.

Innocent little ditties like “eeny miney moe”, a stupid jingle that people used to say years ago when making a choice among several objects. Seems that it ONCE contained the “n word.” No longer. So when an airline attendant started saying “eeny miney moe” she had her a$$ reamed by a highly-privileged member of the black community because of the word that it ONCE contained.

But the traps aren’t colorblind. The traps are set to detect the amount of melanin that you have, and if there’s a lot, or you’re liberal, the trap is not sprung.

Living and breathing are two traps for normal people.

This monkey business could be the jumping of the race card shark.

Everything a white person says can be construed as racism.

Remember how the left called President Bush a ‘chimp’?

In Shakespeare’s play MacBeth, MacDuff’s wife calls her white-scottish son a “monkie”.

Not to mention that they now claim the Star Spangled Banner is racist because of some purported slave word in the THIRD stanza. I doubt more than a couple dozen people in the United States knows that stanza by heart.

All whites are racists. Even the Liberal ones.

The Liberals are just overcome with guilt about it.

If calling people racist all the time keeps Leftists in power, they’ll literally call anyone a racist who opposes them. In the end they are insecure, fear-filled narcissists who can’t tolerate anyone who earns social, political, or economic status through merit.
