New York Times Op-Ed: Progressives Claim Racism to Grab Power in 2020

Really not much for me to add here. Brietbart wins again! And maybe even the NYT too?

****
"The nation’s voters are not divided by racial and ethnic hatreds, but by progressives’ demand that intrusive government policies be used to aggressively level all disparities between racial and ethnic groups, according to an op-ed in the New York Times."
“The country is not divided by racial conflict, but by conflict over racial ideology. … Liberal whites — not minorities — are setting the tone on these issues,” says the op-ed by Eric Kaufmann, a professor at the University of London and author of “Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration and the Future of White Majorities.”

Weird title. Overparsing no bueno.

Last paragraph of the NYT op/ed:

What this all shows is that America isn’t racially divided, it’s divided by racial ideology. And that’s a good thing for the country’s unity, because ideological differences, however lamentable, are less polarizing than racial conflict, in which whole communities mobilize against an enemy. A mix of races are found in each racial ideology, preventing tribe and creed from pushing in the same direction, which might lead to civil conflict. This raises the hope that American political elites can one day heal the country’s divisions.

I think it's respectable for progressive Whites to understand the tone of their Conservative counterparts and actively denounce what they see as incorrect or flawed.

What's that phrase when Conservatives lament the "lack of Moderate Islam"?

Oh Right: Police your own
