The New Jim Crow: Under Biden, Straight White Men Need Not Apply

It was always there, just beneath the surface. Late radio giant Rush Limbaugh called it get-even-with-’em-ism. It’s that hostility that ever underlay racial quotas and that now, being more overt, is manifesting itself in “the largest racial tracking bureaucracy since the fall of Nazi Germany.”

That’s how Fox News host Tucker Carlson characterized Joe Biden’s new “equity”-oriented executive order (number 13985), signed Thursday and mostly ignored every day. It protects and elevates all conceivable groups in the United States — except one.

If you guessed “Straight white men,” go to the head of the class.

That is, unless you’re a straight white man. Then you can sit in the back of the of the electric, carbon-neutral bus to East Palestine.

One more thing: Coincidentally, I’m sure, straight white men are also the major demographic that is perhaps least likely to support Democrats.

Carlson reported on the story Friday, saying:

Joe Biden institutes a government-wide system of racial discrimination that dwarfs Jim Crow and nobody seems to notice. It happened yesterday, by the way. Did you know that? Probably not, because there was no press conference or signing ceremony, no media coverage, but 24 hours ago, it happened.

Biden restructured the entire executive branch of the U.S. government to discriminate on the basis of immutable characteristics. He made that announcement on the White House website and it proclaims that within 30 days, every federal agency — all of them from the Department of Justice to NASA to the Social Security Administration, all of them — all must “ensure” that they have an agency equity team within their respective agencies to coordinate the implementation of equity initiatives, and these Maoist equity teams will report to something called the Gender Policy Council and the White House “environmental justice officer.” Does the environmental justice officer carry a sidearm? We don’t know, actually.

We do know that running all of this, which is the largest racial tracking bureaucracy since the fall of Nazi Germany, will be former President Barack Obama, and he’ll be doing that as always through his long-time lackey and cut-out Susan Rice. Rice’s goal, the goal of the entire initiative, is to place the federal government, all of it, in opposition to a very specific slice of the American population — not a foreign population; our own population. Here’s how it works: Every single person in the United States will qualify for one of Joe Biden’s many protected categories except straight white men.

So, we’re all in this together, except those guys who are on the outs. It’s all of us versus them, straight white men. They will not be protected because they are, by virtue of being straight and white and male, the cause of the problem. They’re the enemy.

That’s right, you’re “a domestic enemy now,” Carlson later added. “You’re an English-speaking version of Vladimir Putin. The equity agenda is your personal sanctions regime.”

By the way, as WhiteHouse.gov invites us to do on its executive order fact sheet, I wanted to “read more about additional [equity] steps agencies have taken.” But upon clicking on their link, I got a “403 Forbidden” page. I’m no techie and am not sure why my access was denied, but maybe someone who’s not a straight white male should try it.

That would include Ben LaBolt, who, White House press secretary Karine Jean Pierre boasted recently, “will be the first openly gay communications director, which is very, very important indeed,” related Carlson. She didn’t explain why it’s important — or even why offering homosexuals affirmative action is justifiable, since they make more money than straight men do.
