Unz: Greg Johnson -- Re: Gifts that keep on giving: Oklahoma Uni: Police try to id person posting "IT'S OKAY TO BE WHITE" flyers - [PEACE]

[Zenaan Harkness]

Greg Johnson writing for The Unz Review asks the obvious question of the "It's OK To Be White" flyer campaign, "is this hate speech?"

   It’s Okay to be White

      .. So on what grounds could one object to saying “It’s okay to be white”? As Tucker Carlson put it, “What’s the correct position? That it’s not okay to be white?”

      If multiculturalism is truly an ideology of equality and inclusion, then multiculturalists should have no problem saying “It’s okay to be white.” They would grant it the same status as “Black is beautiful” and “It’s okay to be different.” Indeed, whiteness is one form of difference.

      Clearly, one could object to a statement as innocuous as “It’s okay to be white” only if one really has something against white people, specifically a deep hatred or prejudice. This is why it is such a useful diagnostic tool.

      “It’s okay to be white” flyers and stickers were posted widely in the United States and other white countries, primarily in the Anglosphere. As its creators predicted, the slogan provoked an immediate and intense backlash, far out of proportion to the inoffensive message.

      Upon seeing “It’s okay to be white” signs and stickers, the first reaction of hundreds of people was to call the police. This can be verified simply by entering the words “police” and “It’s okay to be white” in the search engine of your choice. (DuckDuckGo gives the best results.) This happened even in the United States, where the First Amendment to the US Constitution protects freedom of speech. Here are a couple of my favorite headlines:

         - “Sickening to Know People Think Like This” – Police Investigate “It’s Okay to Be White” Signs in Scotland
           https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/12/19/sickening-to-know-people-think-like-this-police-investigate-its-okay-to-be-white-signs-in-scotland/

         - 150+ Cases of Outrage, Manhunts over “It’s OK to be White,” Poster Activist Responds
           https://nationalfile.com/documents-150-cases-of-outrage-manhunts-over-its-ok-to-be-white-poster-activist-responds/

      Indeed, sometimes people deemed these posters too hot for the local cops to handle, so the Federal Bureau of Investigation was called in:

           https://www.thecollegefix.com/fbi-probes-signs-defending-white-privilege-found-at-vermont-universities/

      To put this in context, ask yourself how many flyers and stickers you see in a typical day. Dozens? On a university campus, you might see hundreds. Then ask yourself how many times you were tempted to call the police. Most people would have to answer: never. But when hundreds of people saw “It’s okay to be white,” they were convinced that it is illegal—or that it should be.

      Once the police were called, of course the press were alerted, and locals were asked to share their opinions about the flyers. Most people interviewed are certain that “It’s okay to be white” constitutes “hate speech,” even though it says nothing negative or hateful about anyone.

      I’ll pull quotes from just one article
      https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/12/19/sickening-to-know-people-think-like-this-police-investigate-its-okay-to-be-white-signs-in-scotland/
      to give a sense of the sort of statements that are typical: John Swinney, Deputy First Minister of the Scottish Government, declared: “This is atrocious and has no place in Perth or any other part of our country. We must stand together to resist this unacceptable material.” Peter Barrett, a Perth councilor, said: “This is despicable hate speech. It is covert racism disguising white supremacist views. People should be in no doubt this is no innocuous joke.” Local antiracists claimed that people of color had called to share their feelings. The “terrifying attitudes” expressed by “It’s okay to be white” made them feel “sickened,” “disgusted,” and “unsafe.”

Please y'all, there is much that must see the light, much good which ought have freedom to be, in this world, and this war we are in the thick of needs every positive contribution of your personal intention, of your petitions to the higher authorities;  if you are someone who prays, please do so - now, and each night or morning as works for you.

It might look at times very entertaining (and some of it is), but some of the toughest journeys are being walked at this very moment.

Please pray for those who stand for righteousness and who face the evil which reins on this planet.  Pray for their safety.  And pray that those who stand in our way may repent, may come to see the wisdom of living a higher ethos, a higher intention.  Pray for intervention from on high, that we may walk the higher path together, and live in peace.

Pray for all that is good.

We are all in this together - every one of us.


Peace,
