Ron DeSantis Just Dropped Some New Racism

 

This signifying white supremacist just came out in favor of choking out homeless people of color by smearing progressive DAs as being controlled by a (((globalist))))? This is deeply racist. Manslaughter is not what a Good Samaritan does. https://t.co/QaJUiBXChO

In 2018, Ron DeSantis' gubernatorial opponent made the most succinct summation of what DeSantis was about: The racists believe he's a racist.  The racists had every reason to believe DeSantis was a fellow traveler. We know pretty well from what Tommy Tuberville thinks about MAGA and white supremacy what the score is with MAGA Republicans. If you want to score MAGA points, you have to signify white supremacy.

You have to deny the Ocoee Massacre and the Rosewood Massacre (they aren't even teaching positive Black history there, as far as I hear it.) You have to direct a policy of downplaying white complicity in a systematic degradation of people of color. You have to pretend this is because it's mean to depict white people as racist--and then, be this guy. The guy who can't say "Boo" when racists broadcast anti-Semitism all over his state. And then celebrate a guy who choked a homeless man to death for being publicly upset about an actually very upsetting reality: Hunger and thirst and no place to lay his head where the law would not call him a vagrant and penalize him for the sin of being an unhomed person.

 

And for all the signifying reasons, bring George Soros up, because if you are trying to be openly racist really hard, why not go all the way? On the right, the Uihliens, Kochs, Mercers, and so on, down to Harlan Crow and other little guys like Leonard Leo, white Christian billionaires and related millionaires, have been waging a deep-pocketed culture war to tell LGBT people they haven't equal rights, that child-bearing capable people have no equal rights, that they are suspicious and subject to criminalization for existing. Demonize a former child of the Holocaust, a survivor, who is a progressive because he thinks the law should not overburden minority and disadvantaged people for reasons well within his personal experience. Go ahead--be Ron DeSantis--and think this is how you win a general election. If you ever find the backbone to confront your obvious political Daddy.  I dare him to say a single mean thing about the obvious pussy-grabbing pervert, the business fraud. And he won't. 

My figurative God in a literal moral morass--does Ron DeSantis really think choking a Black homeless man is a laudatory thing? A mitzvah, as it were? Does he want to lionize a man whose family very thoughtfully had him lock down his social media like WHOA! right away? 

Because I would be suspicious of all of that. And Ron DeSantis, on the other hand, wants to run face-first into loving up this brave Marine. Who strangled a homeless man because no one stopped him. 

And DeSantis thinks this is great. 

I never want this man to get the treatment Trump gets. Don't treat him as anything but the ugly little Napoleonic asshole putz he is. He is not Trump's challenger, he's uglier and fake smart and worse. This post--is the essence of racism. And it should not ever ever ever play here like we want that shit to stay here. 

PS: Is due process the leftist agenda? Boy I guess. He ain't no Elliot Ness, he's a bad mess. Ron DeCess.
