You might have heard of Tania Fernandes Anderson; she’s this tub of lard immigrant on the Boston City Council who has gone on viral rants about how racist and horrible the USA is. Starting out life in Cape Verde, she illegally immigrated to the USA at the age of ten, only becoming a citizen in 2019. And she learned – in her liberal, New England city she saw how things were…and knew that if you played up to upper class white Liberal guilt, you can get anything you want. I don’t really blame her for working the system – I blame the system she was able to work.
But, anyways, she’s now been arrested by the FBI on theft and wire fraud charges. What? You think that someone who decided to lie about American racism to get ahead would be honest? LOL. Of course she’s a thief – her whole life is nothing but lying and stealing. Guarantee she’ll blame racism for her arrest…but the actual fault is in that whole kickbacks thing. To be fair, this is rather par for the course in Boston politics but it is done a lot more carefully than Anderson did…she likely thinking she was bullet proof on account of skin color and hollering about BLM.
What’s really funny is that, given her background, he family probably engaged in the African slave trade. Cape Verde was a Portuguese territory until 1975 – with the Portuguese, as far as can be determined, being the first human beings to ever set foot on Cape Verde. Sure, she’s got African blood but Cape Verde wasn’t a destination in the slave trade – it was a stop over. That her ancestors never made it to Brazil (by far the biggest destination for African slaves) indicates more “participant” rather than “victim” in the whole slavery thing. And remember: the Portuguese were the first humans to arrive in Cape Verde…it wasn’t the occupation of a place with an indigenous population. So, not only does Anderson not have much of a legacy of slavery to deal with, she also doesn’t have a legacy of colonialism. And she never lived in America during slavery or Jim Crow. In fact, she was privileged from the moment she set foot here…but this didn’t stop her from making a living based on ranting about racist oppression.
This is the level of dishonesty we’re dealing with these days: it is just lie after lie after lie and we’re supposed to just swallow them all. Back in the heyday of BLM she went viral for her rants in the city council (naturally with cameras rolling!) and woe to anyone who called her out on it…she was an authentic voice! Except she wasn’t American by birth…she might as well have been a Swede. She had nothing to do with America’s past…plus or minus (save a chance that her ancestors helped transport slaves to the USA; that is a distinct possibility). She was a fraud from the get go…and we had to put up with her. And still do. Even if she goes to jail, we’re still going to be supporting her…and if she doesn’t go to jail, or gets out after a slap on the wrist (likely) then she’ll probably still find some way to live off the public dime.
And here’s the real outrage of it all – she’s ultimately making her living by being racist. She stands there (waddling a bit, she really needs to drop some weight) wagging her finger at white people, as such. That is the definition of racism; ascribing certain qualities to a group based on immutable facts such as skin color. We ran out of American racism some time ago – the small amounts we have left are getting swastika tattoos in prison between bouts of meth dealing. So, we’ve started importing it…in the most ironic aspect, we’re importing it from Africa.
And think about the Penny trial…this is the final result of “reverse racism”. Back in the old days, white prosecutors would go after any black person who caused trouble. And using loaded language would get the larger population to view such with suspicion so that it was easier to railroad the target. Now in NYC we’ve got a white man who came to the defense of, among others, people of color, but because he defended them against a black guy, he’s on trial for manslaughter. How is this any different from Jim Crow, just with the skin colors reversed? This is the really bad long-term effect of letting the Left get away with calling America racist and/or saying that white people are inherently racist – it otherizes white people and makes them the bad guy no matter what. Once again, no different from what happened to black people under Jim Crow.
Leftists call this “restorative justice”…to translate that for you: because black people were treated unjustly in the past, we’re going to treat white people unjustly in the present. And then say mindless drivel like, “to the oppressor, equity looks like tyranny”. As if Penny oppressed anyone! His only real guilt is being white – being good looking and a Marine just makes him worse. You just know the Leftists in NYC look at him and go, “I bet he voted for Trump!”.
We really need to start to push back against this – it is illegal to oppress people in the USA. No; seriously. Massively against the law. We passed these laws to stop white jerks from screwing over black people. But, guess what? The laws are color blind. As, indeed, all American law always has been…it doesn’t say “don’t oppress black people, but take a stab at the crackers”. No; the law says you can’t oppress anyone. Period.
Time to start using those laws.
