There are many, many logical fallacies in his reasoning, especially in his writings on race, over the nearly two decades I’ve been keeping tabs on him, and John Hinderaker. It is often futile, or at least hard… to know where to begin. [And at a more spiritual level, his empathy is… essentially non-existent.]
And so, for this moment, I will choose to begin at the end (i.e., what he wrote this evening): Paul M. tonight would now tell us that most colorism is NOT the fault of “Whitey“. I guess he just wants that to be true.
In any event, here’s his quote (last two paragraphs) in context:
“…I don’t know whether, or to what extent, it [colorism] exists today. However, if we’re going to have a “racial reckoning,” brown-on-black discrimination should be a part of it (and “Whitey” shouldn’t take most of the blame)….”
Who was it that brought enslaved peoples to America in the first place, Paul? Who was it that used colorism to divide field hands from house servants? Who used it as a means of social control on plantations, and in city streets, first, Paul?
Yes, it was always… white domestic terrorists (but no one called them by that name, then — or even ten years ago), here in the New World.
Mirengoff offers this to assuage his own guilt for not doing much — to change things, here in the present day. So… he deflects. [I’ve also included an earlier gem-stone, which dribbled off his stupid keyboard, last year — in the archive image at right above.]
How very sadly… white of him.
Out.
