Documentary
propagandist and anti-white racist Michael Moore is a one-man hate group, the kind that would be relentlessly
targeted by the Southern Poverty
Law Center if only his hatred didn’t align so closely with theirs. Instead, the leftist
smear organization is ardently devoted to demonizing pro-American standard
bearers of freedom like the David Horowitz Freedom Center, FrontPage Mag writer
Daniel Greenfield, and Jihad Watch’s Robert Spencer.
Meanwhile Moore is given a pass not only by the SPLC, but by the Democrat Party
at large which also happens to be aligned with his divisive views.
You may remember
that Moore rose to prominence and wealth as a leftist activist thanks primarily
to his enormously successful documentaries Bowling for Columbine
and Fahrenheit 9/11, both wildly popular among the America-hating film
snobs at the Cannes Film Festival, and both riddled with falsehoods and distortions.
The late iconoclast Christopher Hitchens, for example, excoriated
Fahrenheit 9/11 at Slate in his inimitable style: “To describe this
film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the
level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to
run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental.”
Speaking of
excremental, Moore also authored a handful of books of leftist disinformation,
including the bestselling Dude, Where’s My Country? and Stupid White
Men. The latter predictably laid the blame for all of the world’s ills at
the feet of Moore’s titular targets. He has since gone on to turn flogging white
men into a career revival now that his more recent documentaries have flopped,
Donald Trump has supplanted Barack Obama in the
Oval Office, and anti-white racism has become culturally acceptable, if not
celebrated.
In his most recent
incitement of hatred against white men, Moore stated in a video interview with Rolling
Stone magazine published last Tuesday that white men who voted for
President Trump are “not good people” and that others “should be afraid of
them.”
“Two-thirds of all
white guys voted for Trump,” Moore continued. “That means anytime you see three
white guys walking at you, down the street towards you, two of them voted for
Trump. You need to move over to the other sidewalk because these are not good
people that are walking toward you. You should be afraid of them.”
Imagine the
apoplectic outrage if a conservative of Moore’s media stature had stated in an
interview that blacks who voted for Barack Obama, or Muslim-Americans who voted for Minnesota
Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, were bad people
and that you should cross the street to avoid being assaulted by them. But
because Moore was smearing white (and therefore, presumably conservative) men, his
blatant racism received no pushback from the interviewer or condemnation in the
left-leaning news media.
Furthermore, Trump supporters are the ones being assaulted in literally hundreds of instances all over the
nation, not the ones doing the assaulting. Where is the right-wing
equivalent of the fascist thugs of Antifa? Where are the liberals being
attacked for wearing “I’m With Her” t-shirts or pussy hats? Where are the
Progressives being hounded out of restaurants by cursing mobs? Where are the radical
Progressive speakers being threatened and shouted down on college campuses? Moore
knows full well that he has it exactly backwards: we should be the
ones crossing the street.
Not only does the
mainstream media not condemn Moore for such hateful incitement to violence, it promotes his brand of
white-bashing while simultaneously providing cover for it by inflating the existential
threat of “white supremacists” and claiming they have a friend living in the
White House. President Trump, who has unequivocally and publicly denounced
racism and white supremacists, and who has done more for American blacks,
Hispanics, and Jews in three years than the Democrat Party has done in the last
fifty, has not emboldened white supremacists, as the activist media keep
insisting.
On the contrary,
it is the Trump-hating media themselves who have empowered white supremacists by relentlessly
exaggerating their numbers, their degree of organization, and their cultural
power and influence. As I’ve written before, white supremacists are the most socially
marginalized and politically impotent demographic in America. No politician
would dare express public support for white supremacy. No movie or TV show
would dare depict white racist characters sympathetically. When South Carolina
mass murderer Dylann Roof killed nine black churchgoers in Charleston in 2015,
he carried out this atrocity alone because he was unable to recruit any fellow
white supremacists to participate. The news media hype racial hate crimes
purportedly perpetrated by whites, most notably the Jussie Smollett debacle, but
then neglect to follow up on the huge percentage of cases which turn out to be hoaxes.
On campuses across the country, entire programs are devoted to indoctrinating
students into believing that they are oppressed by an institutionalized web of
bigoted evil called “whiteness,” which must be dismantled to make way for racial
justice.
This is how white
supremacy gets empowered.
None of this is to
suggest that white supremacy does not exist; of course it does, and it is an
ugliness that should not be tolerated, just as, say, Islamic supremacism should
not be tolerated. Bigotry – against people of any color – like the
kind in which Democrats regularly traffic, should always be called out and
rejected. But contrary to the mainstream media Narrative, and contrary to
Moore’s racist fear-mongering, neo-Nazis are not on the verge of establishing a
Fourth Reich, and Donald Trump is not their new Hitler.
If Michael Moore
were just another celebrity useful idiot like actor Robert De Niro spouting identity
politics talking points, he wouldn’t be so noteworthy. But the hypocritical
demagogue represents everything that is wrong with today’s Democrats in general.
He stands for every radical position held by the leftists who control the Party.
A multi-millionaire with numerous homes around the country, he is a loud-and-proud
anti-capitalist supporter of the Occupy Wall Street anarchists. He calls
himself a patriot but travels the world bashing and apologizing for America to fawning
foreign audiences. While claiming to be a lifelong Catholic, he responded to the 2019
Alabama law outlawing abortion by smearing the state as “Talibama” – because
protecting the unborn is obviously a human rights atrocity equivalent to
Afghanistan Muslims stoning women to death.
Though he travels
with heavily-armed guards, he opposes the Second Amendment and demonizes the
National Rifle Association as a “terrorist organization” worse
than ISIS, claiming that Americans have so many guns because “too many
white people are afraid of black people. Period.” An open borders proponent (“There’s plenty
of room here” in America, he has said stupidly), he lies about the Trump
administration’s immigration policies to stoke further racial animus. Predictably,
he is also a climate change hysteric. And although white himself, Moore is, as
I’ve noted, one of the left’s most vocal and vicious anti-white racists.
On every issue, to
sum up, he is fully onboard with the platforms of the radical left, otherwise
known now as the Democrat Party.
A month ago, Moore
himself confirmed the point. “I am the center. I am the mainstream now of the
Democratic Party,” he told MSNBC, claiming
falsely that most Americans agree with his positions. Most Americans do not.
More and more Americans are waking up to the fact that Donald Trump is making
America great again, and that Democrats like Michael Moore hate him – and his
supporters – for that.
