Title: That DC Councilman Who Blamed the Jews for the Weather
Post by: Ben on April 19, 2018, 07:24:18 PM
I think we talked about this DC Councilman who blamed the Jews for snow in DC (weather control). So this numbnuts apparently took a tour of the Holocaust museum in DC (What? To make up for his dumbass statement?) and further beclowned himself, as did his seven (SEVEN?!?) staff members:

Seven of White’s staff members stayed with the guide, who soon was showing them an exhibit on the Warsaw Ghetto. As she explained the walling in of Polish Jews, one aide asked whether it was similar to “a gated community.”

Sadly, I'm going to bet they are actually a representative sample. Our schools aren't teaching, ESPECIALLY in the cities.

I was similarly thinking that if a human of average intelligence, living in a parallel universe where WW2 had never happened, were transported here and given that tour, they could figure out what was generally going on in the images. At least to the point that it was bad, not good.

It boggles my mind that someone, even someone extremely stupid, could come up with the answers these people did. It's almost willful.

I suspect it is willful. I suspect that the councilman and his staff have lived their life downplaying adversity to others so as to elevate their own grievances. It's part of identity politics and beliefs.  "I'm a victim. There can be other victim's but none worse then I."  It's part of why they eat their own allies.

Quote from: Councilman White
I’ll be coming back to see more of the museum. I didn’t get a chance to see the whole thing. But I think it’s a lot of education here, a lot of synergy here between what happened to the Jewish community and the African community

Not really. But he, and presumably his staff, sees EVERYTHING through the lens of violence against Africans. He's also got some pretty thinly veiled anti-Semitism going on. Both are willful.


Can you imagine the hailstorm if an elected official visited the MLK memorial and said this:

This opportunity has given me the chance to meet a lot of great Jews blacks, a lot of people. A lot of good Jews blacks that I’ve never had the chance to meet before. it’s an awesome experience

But Councilman White will get a pass.

Trayon White Sr. (D-Ward 8 ) has been asked for details of the $500 donation he made to the Nation of Islam’s Saviours’ Day Event in Chicago, where Farrakhan declared “powerful Jews are my enemy,” and stated Jews “were responsible for all of this filth and degenerate behavior that Hollywood is putting out turning men into women and women into men.”

Those dang alt-right Trump supporters and their anti-semitism.

I've said it before.  An awful lot of bias occurs at the editorial level as to what sees print or pixels.

The expression used to be to "spike" a story, but in our electronic age, I don't know if they still use that term.
