Have You Tried Not Being White?

Have You Tried Not Being White?
The pervasive myth of our time is that the Left desires equality. Critical race theory teaches that white people are a class enemy.

Are you now, or have you ever been, a white person? I ask this not out of personal curiosity but for the betterment of American society. Everyone with a sense of justice knows that the greatest threat our country faces comes from its own white population.

This message now saturates our culture. We hear it from the president’s bully pulpit. It is everywhere in the media and it is an increasingly inescapable feature of school and workplace life.

Coca-Cola gave a useful and concise formulation to this plague in their now required “sensitivity” training for employees. The snappy message: “try to be less white.”

Now, what is a white person supposed to do with this information? How can one be other than what one is? Coca-Cola suggests being “less oppressive,” “less arrogant,” “less certain,” “less ignorant.” Whites should, instead, “listen” and “believe.” But this does little to clarify the situation. Listen to what? Believe what? Arrogant how? Oppressive how? “Be less certain” of what?

A normal person, somebody untutored in the sophisticated absurdity of our “elites,” readily recognizes that this is a message of hate, pure and simple. The plain meaning is obvious: there is something wrong with being white, whites are a class enemy, they are bad people.

The actual words in the expression “try to be less white” are not important. It is reducible to a simple command to obey. One could just as well say “stop being white” or “whites are not human” or “do what you are told, whitey.”

To say the truth aloud, however, is to give away the game. The critical pervasive myth of our time is that the Left desires equality. If this notion were seriously challenged, if enough people stopped believing it, their rule would become intolerable overnight, and their entire system of social control would start to collapse.
