Two Disparate Responses To Being Caught At “Good Discrimination”

Revealed Discriminator 1: Boston Mayor Michelle Wu.

Response: “Deal with it!”

Despite the legitimate uproar over Boston’s Asian-American mayor holding a party that explicitly excluded whites [covered here on Ethics Alarms], Wu and Boston Democrats decided to go with a moldy bunch of lame rationalizations (“it’s no big deal!”…”we’ve been doing it for years”..”we don’t care!”) and not only held the discriminatory event, but proudly issued a photo of it. Naturally, the news media’s reaction is “Republicans pounce!” but long-time conservative pundit Howie Carr, who is usually a bit extreme for my tastes, was spot on, writing in an op-ed for the Boston Herald:

“What if a white mayor had held a whites-only party at a city-owned building, after specifically disinviting all the non-white members of the City Council? It would have been the end of the world, a national story for days if not weeks on end. On the night of the party, there would have been rioting, or looting and violence….had the event been held by a Republican, every GOP politician across the nation would have been asked to denounce it…

Carr added that most of of the ‘state-run media’ in Massachusetts carefully avoided criticizing the party.

The reverse-racists are getting awfully cocky these days.

Revealed Discriminator 2: Harvard

Response: “Discrimination? What discrimination?”

Harvard isn’t quite so cocky, for obvious reasons. So after its callous treatment of Jewish students attracted unwelcome scrutiny in recent weeks, the university quietly removed this page that was on the Harvard website just a few days ago…

…celebrating segregated 2023 graduation ceremonies for various identity groups, with the notable exception of Jewish students. And whites, of course. An all-white graduation would be racist. Isn’t “Affinity Celebrations” a great euphemism for “exclusive graduations in the age of Diversity Equity and Inclusion”?
