Why You Might Be Blind To Racism
00:04:37

|
| What has been effective for you? | |
| Is that what she said? | |
| In combating racism. | |
| You in combating racism. | |
| That's the key word there. | |
| Helpful to you. | |
| Helpful, that's it. | |
| Okay, helpful, yeah. | |
| So she said all whites should talk to each other about racism. | |
| So I am taking Riley's advice. | |
| I have a white man in the room. | |
| My producer is white. | |
| You're really white. | |
| Let's talk. | |
| Right, can you have his mic there? | |
| I'm not hearing him. | |
| Are we good now? | |
| I'm not as white as you. | |
| That's correct. | |
| But I'm actually pink. | |
| I can actually, if I stay in the sun, I can kind of get darker. | |
| I'm white looking. | |
| Yeah, well that's cultural appropriation. | |
| You should not stay in the sun. | |
| But you can't. | |
| You can't do it. | |
| No, I can't. | |
| I would just turn more red. | |
| I think this is the kind of, I think this is what she's talking about. | |
| We're now having a conversation about whiteness. | |
| Yes. | |
| That has to count in some fashion. | |
| Well, yeah, because whiteness is defined as racist. | |
| So I'm curious. | |
| So let's talk about it. | |
| So today, for example, let's just take today. | |
| Open up to me and the audience. | |
| What racist thought did you have today? | |
| I didn't. | |
| See, this is a perfect example of what they're saying on the left. | |
| You might be, I can't, I don't know, but you might be so racist that you don't even know that you're racist. | |
| But I know you. | |
| I don't think you have a racist bone in your body. | |
| I think race matters to you as much as shoe color. | |
| Maybe shoe color matters more, actually. | |
| You think about that. | |
| Yeah, I'm very, very sensitive about your color. | |
| Yes, no, I know. | |
| It's a poor... | |
| I was wrong. | |
| Now, that I thought about today. | |
| Yes, I believe that too. | |
| So did I. What shoes to wear. | |
| What color shoes are you wearing, by the way? | |
| Black. | |
| What was the option? | |
| I could have worn something like a burgundy. | |
| Because I have a... | |
| I'm sort of... | |
| My theme is blue today. | |
| I have blue pants. | |
| Do you own blue shoes? | |
| They make them. | |
| I don't actually own a pair of blue shoes. | |
| I have gray. | |
| Now you see where the direction went here? | |
| Because we really don't have anything to say about human colors. | |
| It interests us less than shoe colors. | |
| We don't think about it. | |
| We don't think about it. | |
| So we're having an honest dialogue about it. | |
| Why would we think about it? | |
| That's right. | |
| Why would we think about it? | |
| That's right. | |
| What productive thing would come out of it? | |
| Exactly. | |
| What productive thing? | |
| Well, it isn't. | |
| I mean, if we spent time talking about our unconscious racism, what would that sound like? | |
| Well, I don't know. | |
| How do you talk about your unconscious? | |
| I don't have racist thoughts. | |
| You don't have racist thoughts. | |
| And then we're supposed to have a conversation. | |
| By the way, here's the interesting thing. | |
| The theory that they have is that we are... | |
| What is it? | |
| We're unconsciously racist. | |
| Or even we're racist, but we don't know it. | |
| So I have a question. | |
| I've done a lot of work. | |
| I've written a major book on anti-Semitism. | |
| Every anti-Semite knows he's an anti-Semite. | |
| Why does that work? | |
| I mean, if you'd have asked an anti-Semite, are you an anti-Semite? | |
| Of course I'm an anti-Semite. | |
| I think Jews control the world, and I hate them, and Hitler didn't finish the job. | |
| But, gee, why would you call me an anti-Semite? | |
| That's not going to happen. | |
| Well, it's like dog whistles. | |
| The only people who hear dog whistles are leftists. | |
| That's correct. | |
| Who accuse... | |
| Right, of whistling. | |
| Conservatives of whistling, yeah. | |
| But the whole premise, you don't know you are. | |
| I mean, it could exist in theory, but in practice, people who hate groups know they hate groups. | |
| It's the way it generally works. | |
| Well, thank you. | |
| You hate slow drivers in the left hand. | |
|
Inventing Problems
00:00:47
|
|
| Yes, and I acknowledge it. | |
| That's correct. | |
| Yes, there should be a special place for them. | |
| All right, thank you, sir. | |
| Now you had a dialogue with a white man about racism. | |
| Following the... | |
| The deep suggestion of AOC's boyfriend. | |
| This is what the left has come to. | |
| Because they have no causes. | |
| Do you understand? | |
| Life is great here. | |
| So they need to invent problems to give their lives meaning. | |
| These are empty. | |
| The left is soulless. | |
| There's no human soul. | |
| I mean, they may use the term, but of course they don't believe it because... | |
| There's only a soul if there's a God. | |
