RE: Fake Narratives Need To Be Called Out - The Rise Of Fake Hate Crimes
Naturally, you have a post on here calling out the need for actual hate crimes to stop too, right?
Otherwise, seems like virtue signals....I agree, both are fucking weird and wrong

Calling for all hate crimes to stop and holding those responsible accountable is obvious and also mentioned in the last paragraph of this post.
The main point I'm making is about the narrative that the media runs with without bothering to fact check and how little they do to retract the damage that narrative causes when they get caught, going so far as to actually accusing the right of weaponizing the story in this case, and how contrary this logic is to there own assertion that power hierarchies exist that need to be called out but do not exist within the media itself. When they do it they call it objective facts, not some narrative they are pushing regardless of the facts. Many journalists see hate or racism where it does not exists and pin in on groups that do not feel that way.
The media has a funny way of redefining definitions to words including racism.
Some people would argue that this post is racist even though it's just discussing, in part, Smollette who bore false witness and reported a false crime. Just because Jussie happens to be black and we are talking about his crime does not make this discussion racist, but through the media and academia running this narrative non-stop the meaning of the word is being corrupted to mean a lens through which people interpret, naturalize, and reproduce inequality instead of its true meaning, which is technically defined as prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.
The majority of the population today just doesn't feel that way knowing that those beliefs are wrong. But it's just as wrong for the media to keep cramming this narrative in our faces.
Start with this truth of American society: disparaging remarks about white people as a whole that would be simply impermissible for other sets of people are largely permissible and carry few repercussions. This fact seems to enthrall the left and enrage the right.
The fundamental point that people on the left make is that stereotyping white people is not as bad as stereotyping blacks, Asians, Muslims, immigrants and so on because whites have dominated America since its founding. Belittling, totalizing comments about a people based on their skin color is still a facile, unhelpfully tribal and meaninglessly antagonistic practice, even if a shameful history of systemic oppression does not lurk behind it.
Still though, there IS a difference
