The New Face of White Supremacy

The Conservative Party (UK) has elected a new leader, Kemi Badenoch. Born in London to Nigerian parents, she was raised in Nigeria and the USA (she actually worked at a McDonald's!!) before coming to the UK at age 16. It is officially OK for enlightened leftist opinion to say hateful and racist things about her because she is a Tory:

  • “the most prominent member of white supremacy’s black collaborator class”
  • [the chief representative of] ‘white supremacy in black face’
  • “shining ebony example that the Psychosis Of Whiteness is not reserved for those with white skin”

(See this by Brendan O'Neill in The Spectator on the unhinged reaction.)

At what point does the entire Western world realize that leftism has become a pathological mental state that holds the victim hostage by replacing genuine grounds for self-worth and self-esteem with membership in an empty narcissistic cult threatened by reality and anyone who accepts reality?

    According to my history books, over two thousand years and counting.

    Those three ought to do it.
