WaPo Publishes Hit Piece on Random Leftist Who Wasn’t “Woke” Enough, Gets Her Fired

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on June 20, 2020 54 Comments

If there's one moment that should chill the radical left and its mind-numbed robots to its core, it's the recent Washington Post article attacking a random leftist woman for "racism" at one of its own Halloween costume parties, a party that took place two years ago. The appalling, sloppy, unprofessional mean girl hit piece on a non-public figure ended up getting the woman fired from her job.

If you needed any further confirmation that the radical left has lost its damned mind, look no further than the Twitter hashtag #CancelYale.

“The spines of thousands are being strengthened by hearing of your fight” – A Supporter’s Message

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 20, 2020 111 Comments

There was a natural inclination, when colleagues and others at Cornell Law School twisted and distorted my words to try to isolate me and damage my reputation, to think it was about me.

Alinsky Rule 13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.

Once I went public with what was happening, and the isolation ended, it didn't take long for me to realize that it's not about me.

I first blogged about Juneteenth in 2015. As I noted then, the day’s significance is almost criminally under appreciated. Over the last few years, the 19th of June and its significance, are slowly gaining national popularity, reverence, and acknowledgment.
