Comrades, many of you wonder why I blog at this hateful website and others owned by the notorious racist Andrew Breitbart. I do so in order to hold Breitbart and his minions accountable to the people, to make him suffer the “free speech” he purports to defend.
In his latest racist attack on black Americans, Breitbart has outdone himself, posting an outrageous video of the Rev. Al Sharpton hosting on MSNBC in prime time this past Tuesday.
In the video, the Rev. Sharpton attempts to utter the prophetic words: “Tonight is the measure of whether the country begins, in the state of Wisconsin, a national drive to push back, or whether we have more to go to build a movement of resistance. But resist, we must. We must, and we will, about that, be committed.”
The Rev. Sharpton was right: Republicans somehow held on to win in Wisconsin, and so resist we must.
Yet in Breitbart’s video–almost certainly doctored, given his history of deceit–the Rev. Sharpton is shown saying: “But resist, we much. We must, and we will much, about that, be committed.”
The video has gone viral, and Breitbart’s troglodyte teabagger terrorists are whooping it up like London hooligans, claiming that the Rev. Sharpton is incapable of hosting a television show, playing up a familiar and ignominious racist stereotype.
The racism is evident in the way Breitbart presented the Rev. Sharpton’s comments. He follows the footage of the Rev. Sharpton with the names and images of past anchors at NBC: “Huntley, Brinkley, Chancellor, Mudd, Brokaw, Williams”–each and every one of them a white male. He adds an image–surely photoshopped–from the Rev. Sharpton’s past, in which has been made to look overweight and shown wearing a ridiculous outfit.
Breitbart’s aim is clear. Not only does he want to remove a revolutionary, radical voice from the airwaves, but he also wants to destroy MSNBC’s well intentioned attempt to diversify its formerly all-white lineup. The fact that a few dark complexions have been scattered recently among the likes of Dylan Ratigan, Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow, Ed Schultz, Andrew Mitchell, Lawrence O’Donnell, and so on has infuriated Breitbart.
Even more outrageously, Breitbart has apparently managed to brainwash a few Uncle Toms from the National Association of Black Journalists to oppose the Rev. Sharpton. They echoed false media allegations that the Rev. Sharpton had a conflict of interest just because he had allegedly used his civil rights group to help approve a controversial merger between Comcast and NBC Universal after receiving money from Comcast.
But the joke is on Breitbart in the end. Because we progressives know how to deal with the most racist insults hurled at us by bigots of his deceitful sort. We appropriate their hateful terms, making them our own, stripping them of their racist venom and turning them into weapons against our very tormentors.
In posting that twisted video of the Rev. Sharpton, Breitbart has unwittingly provided us a new rallying cry: “Resist we much!”
Comrades! Stand up for MSNBC’s ongoing attempt at racial integration! Fight Breitbart’s racist attack against the Rev. Sharpton! Smash the traitorous Fifth Columnists from the National Association of Black Journalists! Demand a revolutionary media that organizes the progressive forces of our nation against evil corporations!
In the words of our now-favorite MSNBC host, let us build our movement of national resistance!
Resist we much!
