Did you hear what the governor (Washington State) and Dem presidential aspirant, Jay Inslee, had to say on Monday about the “deplorables”, aka Trump supporters? He called them people from “non-enlightened area[s]”. What are they “non-enlightened” about? Why of course, it’s the chic hobby horses of the beautiful people: something called “implicit bias”, the climate-change apocalypse, and Green New Deal Stalinism. More directly, he connected the word to the hidden bigotry of “implicit bias”, a form only perceived by mystics on the Left, like him. Interesting.
Bigotry exists in America. Dah! And it exists in many places, including the heads of Washington State governors. A bigot can have “non-enlightened” thoughts about more than skin color and mosques. Sometimes, it can be directed at people who like a good macro-brew, NASCAR, pickup trucks, and live in farm country. My guess about Inslee is that his blue-collar familiarity is limited to SNL skits – or at least he became that way.
Inslee and company don’t hesitate in slamming folks who don’t accept their poorly-thought-out ideas. If he can’t find racist actions in an opponent’s behavior, then he’ll do a whirlybird incantation on their opinions with the magical words “implicit bias”. Thus, any view that runs counter to three-quarters of the ladies on The View is contorted into the Left’s long list of isms and phobias.
Bigotry reigns supreme, and it is abundant in our cultural “commanding heights”, to borrow from Lenin (which the Dems are fond of doing anyway).
