JARED TAYLOR: Donald Trump, White Supremacism, And The Insanity Of The Washington Post.
As I like to ask, what do you call a black person who prefers black culture and prefers to live and hang out with other black people? A black person. It’s the ones who don’t prefer black culture etc. who are called names like “Oreo.” It’s the same with Hispanics. “Coconut” is not a compliment.
But as soon as a white man says he prefers white people and European culture then you need a swear word for him. If you’ve been talked out of “supremacist” you go with “nationalist”—because it has the bomb-throwing aroma of Basque or Kurdish nationalism. . . .
Why ask a sworn enemy what he thinks I think? Lyndon Johnson hated Robert Kennedy, but newsmen didn’t check in with Johnson every time they interviewed Kennedy. No one thinks he’ll get the straight dope on Benjamin Netanyahu from Yasser Arafat’s wife. What’s with this fetish for ringing up Mark Potok every time you interview someone he doesn’t like?
But, as I predicted to Mr. Holley: “Your editor won’t let you write a story about me unless to talk to the SPLC.” and, of course, I was right.
