A PRETTY cast-iron rule in life is that people are what they accuse you of.
Nowhere is this truer than in the modern Left’s obsession with calling everyone else a racist.
If you believe in controlled borders you are a “racist”.
If you believe in limiting immigration you are a “racist”.
If you are proud of your country and its history then you are a “racist”.
You could sub “The Toronto Star” for The Guardian and not have to change a thing.
A guest on NPR’s show Fresh Air promoted the idea that the desire to be thin stems from white supremacy while discussing how parents should communicate weight with their children.
Journalist Virginia Sole-Smith appeared on the show on Tuesday to discuss her new book Fat Talk: Parenting in the Age of Diet Culture which includes the theory that fat phobia can be traced back to the end of slavery in the US.

Police have charged Ottawa criminal defence lawyer James Bowie with harassment, extortion and two counts of uttering threats to a woman.
Bowie, 39, appeared in court Monday afternoon where he formally faced the criminal charges after he was arrested by Ottawa police Sunday.
Police said in a media release that they believe there could be other victims and circulated a photo of Bowie, “as he may have used aliases,” police said.
If any other women are feeling triggered at this news, know you’re not alone. Thank you to all the women and to this individual who came forward about James Bowie. Hope we can all support each other virtually. https://t.co/L4cFinSlD3

Gee a total Lib-Left jerk too.
It never fails.
I’ve pointed out that Kamala Harris had a history of covering up sexual harassment. So did a number of other top Democrat feminists. Like most forms of leftism, identity politics offers the power to commit the abuses it claims to fight. Why should the Smithsonian’s American Women’s History Museum be any different?
The Liberal-Left is Harvey Weinstein.
Mehdi Hasan of MSNBC has a plagiarism problem. It appears that, as with the cases of John Oliver and James Corden, Britain is not sending its best. The pundit also seems to be as much of a chameleon as Kamala Harris and Kirsten Gillibrand, taking whatever position gets him ahead.
Alberta NDP candidate Samir Kayande (Calgary-Elbow) said he was disappointed to see Conservative MP Greg McLean (Calgary Centre) “support the hateful, foreign-funded white supremacist blockade threatening Ottawa.”
“They have swastikas and Confederate flags,” said Kayande in a LinkedIn post.
“Symbols that stand for my erasure and my children’s death.”
Sammy, STFU.
It is the elites who are obsessed with race and division.
… One of the most poisonous projects of the past decade has been the ID-pol brigade’s attempt to drive a wedge between the races, rather than stick to a sensible Marxist class analysis of power. So it was refreshing to hear Smallman rejecting every invitation she was given to speak in a racially divisive manner.
First, Smallman willingly gave up her special victim status by boldly stating that the white working class also suffers from police brutality. She brought up grooming gangs as the prime example of this. Smallman rightly pointed out that the police demonised the raped and trafficked white children involved, rather than take on their Muslim exploiters.
The unrest in Leicester last year reminds us where our most pressing problems lie.
One of the more peculiar, recurring targets of racial identity politics is the English countryside. Hardly a week goes by without another thinkpiece arguing that rural England is a hostile environment for ethnic-minority people. And now alleged experts are being deployed to explore this supposedly dreadful, racist state of affairs.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) angrily stormed away from “Libs of TikTok” creator Chaya Raichik after denouncing her as “super transphobic” in a tense Capitol Hill confrontation that was captured by amateur video last week.
Raichik on Thursday posted a video that was filmed by the right-leaning Heritage Foundation.
The “Libs of TikTok” creator confronted Ocasio-Cortez after the two bumped into each other in the congressional building.
BREAKING: I served @AOC with an ethics complaint after she lied about me in a committee hearing. AOC wasn’t in her office but then I bumped into her as I was leaving the Capitol!

Having rich tastes and a fashionable ZIP code does not prevent such a person from doing nasty (and, yes, antiwhite racist) things.
For about a decade a self-described “conservative” has been flooding me with email notes arguing that woke white leftists do not, in fact, dislike other whites. In fact, such seeming antiwhite radicals adore their whiteness. White leftists live in the same neighborhoods with other whites, dress the same way, and send their children to heavily white institutions. For all their talk about being for blacks, these white leftists are just hypocrites. They don’t give up their professional positions for members of other races or sexual orientations, and whatever set asides and preferential hiring these virtue-signalers claim to be working toward, many or most of their colleagues are racially the same as they are.
After spending months of late nights helping her son, as he struggled to learn to read, one South Carolina mom was thrilled to discover that her child’s school had a special program to help students who were falling behind.
But after inquiring about the program, she was shocked to learn that he wouldn’t qualify for the tutoring, she said.
The Pentagon said it will issue no disciplinary action to its former diversity, equity and inclusion chief – Kelisa Wing – over a series of divisive statements about White people, according to a Thursday letter to Rep. Elise Stefanik’s office, who sits on the House Armed Services Committee.
Wing was appointed as diversity, equity and inclusion chief at the Pentagon’s education wing – the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) – in 2021. She was involved in curriculum at DoDEA, which services over 60,000 military-connected children at 160 schools around the globe.
In June 2021, an Ontario high school student tried to sign up for a summer program. He was rejected because he was white. The “SummerUp” program, sponsored by the Ontario government, was open only to Black students. His father filed a complaint with the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal alleging racial discrimination. Last November, the Tribunal dismissed the complaint, saying the quiet part out loud. White people, wrote the Tribunal, cannot claim discrimination.
Fuck them. Fuck the Uniparty.
Last week, conservative federal judge, Kyle Duncan was set to speak at Stanford University as part of an event put on by the Federalist Society but couldn’t because a mob of leftist students – with aid from the associate dean of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion – shouted him down. But according to the cackling coven on ABC’s The View on Monday, Republicans in Congress were to blame because they heckled President Biden at the State of the Union.
Congressional investigators say she might have violated House ethics rules and federal law.
What we know about our socialist superiors can be boiled down to one simple fact: both Fidel Castro and Hugo Chávez died richer than Mitt Romney.
Hell, by the time it’s over, it’s probably going to be true that Barack Obama does as well.
Everything about that garbage ideology is a lie, and the most conspicuous proof is that the people who espouse it are garbage of the worst sort.
