Boomerang: Unintended Consequence

Boomerang.  Backlash.  Those are words that refer to unintended consequence.  After decades of being the whipping boy for every cultural fault, shortcoming or slight - whether real or imagined - is it any wonder that white people, especially males, are pushed to the point of pushback?  I don't think so either.  As I've noted on these pages recently, the war against white men began with the misguided feminist movement some sixty years ago.  And, as I've noted, that war was won:  men were ostracized and literally criminalized.  In fact, those feminist radicals' tactics worked so well, that every other aggrieved disenfranchised group has adopted them.  We're victims of you, the great white male, they claimed.  Right. 

Be careful what you throw . . .

So after decades of enduring this war, the white male, genteel to the core, has heretofore smiled and just let it all go.  But in recent years fuel has been added to the fire, and under the divisive Kenyan's reign, the hate of white males has been ramped up by orders of magnitude.  Hate has now become its own ideology.  Hatred not from white males, but of white males.  No problem.  That's permissible.  It's not discrimination or hate speech if vitriol is directed toward white males.  But let a white man express his position on blacks, Hispanics, Muslims or women, and he's excoriated.  

Is it any wonder that white people, especially males, are pushed to the point of pushback?

Enter the interesting case of the website Daily Stormer. Because its editor is a member of what the media refers to as white supremacist, and because of the exercise of his right of free political speech, GoDaddy decided to drop him from its hosting service.  The website's content didn't seem to bother GoDaddy for the years the site has been up, but suddenly it's hate speech.  Which, as many constitutional scholars have pointed out, the suppression of which is actually censorship.  If there is one common attribute of those of the alt-right, another label that the MSM has applied to Daily Stormer, it may be irreverence.  The cite used dark humor to mock feminism, Jewishness, liberals, entrenched government, and every other established icon.  It was satirical if nothing else. Nonetheless, the site was shut down.  No opposition voices may be heard in our free and tolerant society.  Meanwhile, Black Lives Matter, Planned Parenthood, and every other hate group on the far left have had no threats against their respective websites or host providers.

As I write this, the news in the background revealed that several Confederate statutes in several states - including my home state of Florida - have either been torn down and/or vandalized.  Not solely because they were Confederate, but because they were of white guys.  Think that's a stretch?  Consider this:  Al Sharpton on The Charlie Rose Show just called for the removal of the Jefferson Monument in Washington, D.C.  He wasn't kidding.  Jefferson owned slaves, therefore was racist, he explained. 

So there it is.  What started as a hissy fit by unattractive females against the men who wouldn't notice them has now become an ideology within Black Lives Matter and others that are being fueled by the far-left MSM and funded by its sponsor, George Soros.
