The notion that pointing out manifestations of white supremacist rhetoric that have been laundered and mainstreamed is “bullying” or chills speech is a great example of white supremacist rhetoric that has been laundered and normalized....on the left.
Part and parcel of the victimization narrative of contemporary white supremacy, modeled after a social justice movement, and negotiated into reality.
It’s not true, it specifically originated in the white victimization rhetoric, but now it’s a common position for a segment of the left, terrified into acquiescence by the concern trolling right. Hoping to distance themselves from an equally fictional and manufactured “extreme left”. The idea being to position one’s self as a rational and fair person. Exploiting human reciprocity and aversion to stigma.
-and just to get in front of the next bit....a world in which people are more disturbed by having their positions identified as such than they are by holding those positions is further demonstration of the effectiveness and ubiquity of white supremacist rhetoric and attitudes.
People are tired of being -called- white supremacists, but they certainly aren’t tired of espousing the positions of white supremacy. There’s plenty of appetite for that, across both aisles.
