Double Standard Brazilly edition.

https://themessenger.com/politics/bill-maher-donna-brazile-vivek-ramaswamy-racism

 

Frequently, in the debates about immigration, we hear people say that the immigrants who have come to the US without following the legal process should go home or go back where they came from.  We are frequently told that when conservatives do this, or even ask where someone is from or what their background is, that this is explicitly racist behavior and cannot be allowed.   We are also told repeatedly that black people cannot be racist.   


This is quite a conundrum as Donna Brazille clearly is telling Vivek R to go back "home", despite the fact that he is a native born US citizen.  The fact that she further chooses to repeatedly mispronounce his name and plays her "mistakes" for laughs is just icing on the cake.  She is clearly engaging in behavior that is objectively racist (as we've been told), yet seems to be getting a pass on it.

Haven't time at present to watch the video (I should be doing other things at the moment but I'm a practicing procrastinator), but I can imagine the unjustified condescension dripping from yet another lefty fraud, who would shriek about "misogyny" or "racism" if any similar disregard for her was expressed.

I also noticed she was sitting next to that moron Adam Kinzinger...RINO from southern Illinois. (Birds of a feather)

The reality is that if Trump or anyone "on the right" jokingly mispronounced Obama or suggested that Obama "go home", there would have been paroxysms of rage and screams of racism. But the double standard is too ingrained in the left to be considered.
