THE LEFT’S ANTI-WHITE RACISM, as explored by Rod Dreher:

Salon.com presents a racist column by an elderly white male leftist named Frank Joyce. A sample from the column:

The future of life on the planet depends on bringing the 500-year rampage of the white man to a halt. For five centuries his ever more destructive weaponry has become far too common. His widespread and better systems of exploiting other humans and nature dominate the globe.

The time for replacing white supremacy with new values is now. And just as some whites played a part in ending slavery, colonialism, Jim Crow segregation, and South African apartheid, there is surely a role whites can play in restraining other whites in this era. Beneath the sound and fury generated by GOP presidential candidates, Fox News, website trolls, police unions and others, white people are becoming aware as never before of past and present racism.

Blah blah blah.

I know, I know, it’s Salon.com. But you know what? This kind of thing is a big deal, and should not be shrugged off. Can you think of another web publication of its status in this country that could explicitly demonize others by race and gender, and say that “the future of life on the planet” depends on restraining them?

As Dreher’s former colleague Jonah Goldberg accurately wrote in early 2008, foreshadowing the last eight years, “The white man is the Jew of Liberal Fascism.” If that tacit comparison to an earlier war by national socialists causes today’s left to wince, well, they might have pondered the implications of their actions and ideology in the first place.
