I don't defend. I think it was in very poor taste, and there was plenty of material there for her to make jokes that were not racist.
I do question the disparate treatment, however. Why is only one side held to account?
Any race is racist toward white people?
Eh.
A white person is racist towards POC?
!!!

Muslims set up "grooming gangs", the PC term for child rape gangs, and rape untold thousands over the span of 3 decades in the UK.
Eh.
If white people did the same?
!!!
When Tommy Robinson (white guy) reports from outside the trial of member of said rape gang.
Thrown in jail for 13 months.

Refugee status for the white south africans who are getting their farms tsken away by govt force with no compensation. They whose families are getting robbed, stolen from, gang raped and murdered in horrific ways by roaming black gangs-
with the tacit acceptance of the ruling black government?
Eh.
Refugee status in the U.S. for black and brown people (muslim and hispanic) whose countries aren't even in a conflict area.
"We're a nation of immigrants!! Refugees welcome!
Treatment like this is what is fanning the flames of racism.
This phenomenon holds true with regard to collectivists and individualists. I think that has almost everything to do with the resurgence of racial strife over the decades.
It doesn't help that most POCs, at least those involved with politics and media have an affinity for collectivism or are themselves collectivists. It certainly doesn't help that over a third of white people are as well.
That leaves as individualists a majority of white people and a minority of POCs, at least small enough to be diregarded and denigrated by the collectivists as "Uncle Tom's" and "Traitors to their race" without consequence.
Side question:
If there was a country populated by black and brown people who were conservative individualists, would the left be as strident in their wish to immigrate them to the US?
I believe it's this confluence of racism and collectivist politics that is so dangerous. Historically, it has led to some truly horrific outcomes.
Something has got to give. Either we go back to the morally correct idea and ideal that right is right and wrong is wrong, objectively - or we go further down this road and find out just how "right" wrong can get.
NO ONE should want that outcome, yet we as society seem to be making choices that not only lead toward it, but almost ensure it.
