Steyn: ‘In the Space of About 20 Minutes, We’ve Gone From ‘The Confederate Flag Is Racist’ to ‘The Star-Spangled Banner Is Racist”

Friday on “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” conservative commentator Mark Steyn reacted to the report that a Massachusetts librarian deemed the works of children’s book author Dr. Seuss as racist.

Steyn pointed out how things being deemed as racist as progressed in recent months, including the national anthem and Dr. Seuss.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Serious questions:

As a white, do you still respond to the word, "racist"?

Does it really mean anything to you?

Do you know where the very word itself -came from- in history?

Many of us saw this coming, and they laughed at us.

As a white, if someone calls me a "racist", it tells me about the person I am dealing with:

1: They don't know me.

2: They have made a judgement about me without knowing me.

3: That judgement is in error.

As such, regardless of race, creed, or color, national origin, religion, or other factor, they have told me I am dealing with a superficial person who has incorrectly judged me in the absence of facts.

With such an exemplary display of ignorance and prejudice, I would hazard to guess that they are projecting, and are themselves "racist".
