Nexus X HumectressThe uber-neocon Bush speechwriter who came up with the “smoking gun/mushroom cloud” line jumps on the “systemic racism” bandwagon. You can’t make this stuff up.
By Michael Gerson, Washington Post
The phrase “systemic racism,” like “climate change” and “gun control,” has been sucked into the vortex of the culture war. The emotional reaction to these words seems to preclude reasoned debate on their meaning.
Most on the American right have dug into a very different position. They tend to view racism as an individual act of immorality. And they regard the progressive imputation of racism to be an attack on their character. In a free society, they reason, the responsibility for success and failure is largely personal. They’re proud of the productive life choices they’ve made and refuse to feel guilty for self-destructive life choices made by others.
