The Nazis are marching through Paris.
Some whites might have thought that by casting a ballot for Barack Obama, they’d be treated to a few reverse turns on the vice-grip of white guilt in America. Even a few pro-white folks might have speculated an Obama win would serve to quiet the shrill attacks on whites as the source of all evil.
No such luck. In fact, for some anti-white activists and media figures, it’s been just the opposite: The election of Obama only underscores the need for the rest of white society to exit the stage.
And no corner of the culture is safe. Alessandra Stanley (pictured right), a critic for the New York Times,complains that on late-night TV, “every single host of a late-night network talk show is white, male and mainstream. Still.”
We could stop for a moment and point out that this isn’t exactly a big group — from Jack Paar on, we’re talking about maybe 25 people. We could note that Arsenio Hall, a black man, had a successful run as a late-night TV host in the 1990s. We could note that comedians tend to be male. We could note that the men who’ve ascended to these spots tend to be pretty funny, and that a focus on their race is unfair so long as they’re delivering the laughs. And we could note that the world of entertainment overall is hardly a bastion of white exclusion.
But the biggest thing to note is that we’ve come to a place where the smallest of white redoubts gets hit with the diversity howitzer. Jimmy Fallon takes over from Conan O’Brien, who in turn will replace Jay Leno, and, for the New York Times, it’s as if the Nazis are marching through Paris.
