First of all, I want to say I hold no malice toward Scott Adams, nor do I wish his business to fail or his revenue to decline. Scott is a public figure who wants to attract more attention to himself as a ‘persuader’ and influencer. He has every right to say unpopular things and leverage his First Amendment right of free speech. He should not be punished by having his popular comic strip, ‘Dilbert,’ cancelled as a result. Scott knows newspapers are dying, and being canceled by them improves his brand by making him a victim of cancel culture.
Adams talked about a poll which revealed nearly half of black Americans thought it was not OK to be white. This is not surprising. Joe Biden himself stated white Americans were on their way to becoming a minority in America and it was a ‘good thing.’ Really, Joe? How is that good exactly? Joe claimed to be a uniter, but he has done all he can to divide the country and racial division is always pushed by Democrats. White people are consistently demonized by Democrats and corporate media. Why is the poll surprising? It should be expected.
Adams stated on his YouTube broadcast, “If nearly half of all blacks are not OK with white people—according to this poll—not according to me, then that’s a hate group.” He then said white people needed to stay away from black people because such animosity was impossible to fix.
Race relations may be impossible to fix, but Scott may be missing a larger perspective. In America, it’s legal to hate others. Hate speech is legal too. It’s OK to be white, and it’s OK for black people to hate white people and vice versa. It’s a prerogative based on freedom. What’s not free or legal is acting upon that hate with violence toward other races. That is against the law. We are a Republic based on the rule of law and the equal application of the law. Our justice system must be blind toward race. That’s why when we see the statue of Lady Justice holding up her scales, she appears blindfolded. Justice is meted out based on facts and evidence—not on hate. If we had an equitable rather than equal justice system, it would then be based on race and hate. White folk would be convicted more frequently simply because of their race, while black people would be freed no matter how damning the evidence against them might be. This is already happening. A great many Soros-funded prosecutors let criminals go free simply based on their appearance—not the evidence.
The Marxist, woke ideology infecting our country uses equity to deepen the race relations divide. They want us all fighting against each other instead of uniting together as Americans. We must recognize the ‘Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity’ mantra for what it is: DIE.
Unfortunately, critical race theory and ‘woke-ism’ have become too deeply ingrained into corporate America as well as our political institutions, schools, military, the court system, and especially the mainstream media.
Anyone who dares raise facts or statistics that paint favored races in a bad light is instantly branded a ‘racist.’ Then comes the attack on their ability to make a living. Social media bans them. They are shunned and even banks are willing to close their accounts. They are canceled. De-personed. Demonized. Scott Adams must have been aware that his comic strip would be widely dropped, but since newspaper viewership continues its sharp decline, perhaps it’s his way to retire it while he continues to say controversial things that attracts more attention to his online presentations.
Good luck, Scott.
