Well, it looks like The New York Times is in yet another controversy because of course it is. At this point them being in a controversy is my sign the sun will rise the next day.
Okay, so what did they actually do? Well, The New York Times hired an Asian woman by the name of Sarah Jeong. After doing some digging, many found out she tweeted many things that were racist against white people.
The last one is clearly a satire of the "white genocide" conspiracy theories. All 3 of these are clearly a joke. Also, she was hired to write about tech, not about race.
But even then, can we talk about the hypocrisy here? Just a few weeks ago conservatives were angry . . . people were angry about racists. Remember when Papa John said something racist and people were angry about boycotts.
But then I realized the difference. John was racist against black people, Jeong was racist against white people. It's honestly funny how many "colorblind" people seem to select their outrage towards what race is being targeted.
But the right is right on one thing. You can't say what Jeong said about any other race . . . without being defended by conservatives.
