That quote was taken out of context, though. He wasn't talking about all black women...just several very successful black women in specific, after they all admitted that they wouldn't have gotten to where they are in life, without the benefits of affirmative action.
Because that totally changes the context of what he was saying. Amiright, guys? It's so much better when you know he was talking about certain black women*. Right? And how affirmative action is what's bad because it's basically "stealing a white persons slot". How is that racist?
(/s...obviously)
White guys are selected for gender and race all the time, and they would not have gotten where they are in life without it.
That's different, though. That's how it's SUPPOSED to work. Not the other other way around. /s
I've seen this argument a few times and it's like they lack self-awareness. Like it's somehow not racist because he named just about every prominent black woman in politics before saying racist shit? They have to know their arguments are ridiculous, it's just trolling.
Yeah, consider that "the white men's slot" was only considered their due because of centuries of expectations of privilege, passed down from white man to white man. Same as the "black woman's slot" in the elementary school kitchen had always gone to black women, by Tradition. Those sidelined white men are now welcome to apply to cook platters of food for the children they claim to care so much about.
