IT’S OK TO BE A BLACK RACIST

-

HATING Jews is still a sin. But Nick Cannon — and some of the world’s biggest media companies — prove that hating whites is now perfectly fine.

Nick Cannon is hot. He’s a black rapper, comedian, former judge of America’s Got Talent and host of TV shows like The Masked Singer.

But now he’s radioactiv­e. Newspaper headlines tell the story. Well, half of it. Not the anti-white bit.

“Nick Cannon apologises for anti-Semitic comments,” announced the Hollywood Reporter.

“Nick Cannon apology: how anti-Semitic comments hurt us all,” opined the Los Angeles Times.

That apology didn’t stop ViacomCBS firing Cannon from his MTV Wild ’N Out Show for abusing Jews in a podcast two weeks ago.

Who can blame it? In his podcast, Cannon floated familiar anti-Jewish conspiracy theories, ranting about history “going as deep as the Rothschild­s, centralise­d banking, the 13 families, the bloodlines that control everything even outside of America”.

This wasn’t hate speech, he claimed: “You can’t be antiSemiti­c when we (blacks) are the Semitic people … We are the true Hebrews.”

Cannon’s apology to Jews was as pathetic as it was belated, yet was enough to stop others dumping his shows. Fox won’t sack him from The Masked Singer. Lionsgate won’t scrap his planned national TV show, although it says it’s against “anti-Semitism, racism and hate speech”. Kind of.

But wait. Cannon’s antiSemiti­sm was damning, but the worst racism in his podcast — the racism that none of the media giants and few reporters even mentioned — was not against Jews but whites. In that same podcast, he said whites were geneticall­y inferior to blacks for lacking melanin, a skin pigment.

“Our (black people’s) melanin is so powerful … (Whites) fear us ... because of the lack that they have of it,” he lectured.

“When you have a person that has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin, they know that they will be annihilate­d. So therefore, however they got the power, they have the lack of compassion — melanin comes with compassion, melanin comes with soul.

“The people that don’t have (melanin) are a little less.”

Speaking of whites in the past, Cannon claimed: “The sun then started to deteriorat­e them so then, they’re acting out of fear, they’re acting out of low self-esteem, they’re acting out of a deficiency …

“Therefore, the only way that they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, rape, kill in order to survive …

“I speak of the melanated people — they had to be savages. They had to be barbaric because they’re in these Nordic mountains. They’re acting as animals, so they’re the ones that are actually closer to animals.”

I quote Cannon at length to show how racist he was. Substitute “black” for “white”, say blacks are “closer to animals”, and wait for the riots.

I also quote Cannon at length to show what reporters and media bosses — most white — refused to even notice in damning only his anti-Semitism.

This fits a pattern. Antiwhiten­ess is the one racism that few dare call by its name.

And so we now have whites sacked or banned for not being black, under government programs of “positive discrimina­tion”.

We have history reinvented to make whites seem the authors of all bad things — of mythic crimes like the alleged stealing of 100,000 children just for being Aboriginal.

We have “whiteness” made such a pathology that one of the Smithsonia­n Institutio­n’s museums last week posted a list of qualities of “white culture” that included

“aggressive­ness”, “win at all costs” and “master and control nature”.

We now have such racebased shame after decades of state-funded anti-white hatred — colonialis­m!, exploitati­on!, slavery!, genocide! — that I’m not surprised to see many Australian­s who once identified as white now identify as Aboriginal, including the ABC’s favourite “Aboriginal historian”, Bruce Pascoe.

But do not complain or even notice! To notice antiwhite racism is to be a racist yourself.

Last week the Los Angeles

Museum of Modern Art’s chief curator of painting and sculpture was forced to resign after showing off works bought under a policy to get more from artists of colour, but then adding: “Don’t worry, we will definitely still continue to collect white artists.”

Banning white artists would be “reverse discrimina­tion”, he said. But for rejecting a racist ban on white artists, this senior curator was denounced by staff and artists as the real racist. Out he went. He wasn’t the first. He won’t be the last.

A new racism is on the loose, but who dares even see it?
