I once floated the theory that Bernie Sanders wasn't a palatable candidate to older black voters because of his (((ethnicity))) and that was not a palatable theory to a lot of people.
The idea that old Southern Baptist ladies with Muslim grandsons just might have a problem with a Jewish guy? Nope, not open for any consideration, and I branded myself as a potential thought criminal by even suggesting it.
And this was right around the time of that wave of black-on-Jewish attacks, including the guy with the machete.
Because we're only allowed to call out antisemitic attitudes if the perpetrator is white.
I mean, it makes a certain type of sense on multiple levels. The civil rights movement has had seriously strong ties to Islam going waaaaaay back (shout outs to everyone who floated this theory already!) It's pretty well known that Malcolm X dabbled with being muslim.
I would also like to point out that when you're a jogger, saying the Gamer Word means absolutely less than nothing, so all you're really left with is to name the Joo.
With that said, I hope you beat everyone who called you a Thought Crime committer over the head with every single stupid thing Biden said about black people right around the time he was doing geriatric bumfights with Bernie.
