Misdirection Plays 3

Chauncey DeVega diagrams the wingnut misdirection play, faking populism up the middle, then running around the right end to racism.

The video is about a month old, so some of current events are no longer current, but the under currents of which Mr. DeVega speaks are still under.

    This was *very* good.  It is a rare thing for people to talk about racism like this, I think.

    Yes, it is good.  I like DeVega’s blog too (linked in the post).

    In my travels, I have concluded that it’s a rare thing for white folks.

    And it’s a rare thing between black and white folks, ’cause white folks don’t want to confront their history.

    It’s not a rare thing for not-white folks.
