How MAGA centrists blamed a viral racist rant on the ‘woke’
A woman earned over $700k in donations after calling a child the N-word. Trump-friendly pundits blamed it on the left for provoking the “woke right.”May 10, 2025, 3:00 AM PDT
By Anthony L. Fisher, Senior Editor, MSNBC Daily
Shiloh Hendrix, a white Minnesota woman, went viral after repeatedly calling a child on a playground the N-word. The financial windfall she then received — reportedly over $700,000 — from crowdfunding donors, many of whom apparently saw in the unrepentant racist a fearless hero, is a despicable and miserable commentary on the current state of America’s soul.
But it isn’t shocking. Far-right racism and white grievance culture have been ascendant and increasingly mainstreamed for at least a decade. Their most influential avatar — President Donald Trump — is once again in power. (It doesn’t get more mainstream than the presidency.)

#Mark #Robinson, the Republican nominee for governor of North Carolina who described himself as a “#black #NAZI” on a porn website, also wrote a comment
-- defending Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers’ use of the #Nword during a drunken outburst in 2010.
The comment reads, “A drunken Irishman says n----r.
What’s next? Bears that crap in the woods?!
➡️ Get over it people.”

College swimmers suspended after #Nword scratched on to student’s body
At least two students at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania have been suspended from the swim team after a report that a racial slur was scratched onto a student’s body, officials said.
A family member of the victim contacted the Gettysburgian last week to give more details.
They said the student had the
N-word cut into their chest by someone they “trusted”.
The victim’s family say they consider the incident a hate crime.
They also said the victim was the only person of color at the scene

“Republicans seem as giddy as children blowing their first dog whistle when they use the phrase ‘DEI Hire’ to describe Vice President Harris.”

PS: I’m really excited about the Kamala Harris candidacy. Good podcast on the phenomenon here:

#Seinfeld should have changed it's slogan to "the show not about Black people."
There were 180 episodes of Seinfeld and only (19?) Black characters, and only one was a recurring character: Jackie Chiles, the parody of Johnny Cochran.
We also haven't forgotten about Kramer in Blackface before his career-cancelling, #nword meltdown at the Laugh Factory.
Seinfeld was a white fantasy show that would not survive today -- and that's a good thing. #BlackMastodon
