Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart stopped toeing the
liberal policy line for just a moment. That was long enough for the Left
to denounce this black man as a race traitor.
“Sellout,” carping online critics called him. “House Negro,” snarled
others.
Capehart’s crime? In a March 16 op-ed headlined ‘“Hands up, don’t shoot’
was built on a lie,” he explained that he wrongly advanced the
narrative that exploded after the death of Michael Brown, an unarmed
18-year-old cigar thief, at the hands of former Ferguson, Mo., police
officer Darren Wilson. Capehart cited the Department of Justice’s final
report on Ferguson. DOJ says that eyewitnesses that day.

Orwell was again correct, in a time of universal deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act. And you will be hated for doing so.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to note how the Left (the totalitarian collectivist) have established this notion of "race traitor" . The Nazis had the same thing, one could be branded as a race traitor.
And you will be hated for doing so.
DeleteGoes both ways. :)
