Joy Reid's Controversial Remarks on Black Male Trump Supporters
Despite the fact that Joy Reid's show 'The ReidOut' on MSNBC doesn't command a massive audience (it ranks 14th in the list of most-watched news commentary shows in the US), her views often serve as a barometer for the thinking of the progressive left. Reid, much like the women on 'The View', is seen as a representative of a demographic of women who are often angry and vote in large numbers.
These are the same women who have shown support for Kamala Harris based solely on her gender and race. They are the same women who backed Hillary Clinton in 2016 simply because they wanted a woman in the White House, regardless of who that woman was. Generally, these women are known to use shaming tactics to control those around them. Their power lies in their ability to nag others into submission.
However, Harris faces a challenge as this demographic of women without children is not large enough to secure a presidential win. She needs the support of male voters as well. This is seen as ironic by many critics, considering that Democrats and left-wing activists have spent the last decade labeling masculinity as a "toxic" and oppressive societal disease that needs to be eradicated. They have painted all men as potential rapists, misogynists, mass shooters, and fascists. Now, predictably, progressive women want men to help them out of the predicament they've created.
But they don't want to admit their mistakes about men or apologize for their behavior and accusations. Instead, they resort to the same shaming tactics they've always used to get what they want.
Recently, Joy Reid suggested that Kamala Harris' drop in the polls is largely due to a 'global fascist phenomenon' led by white males. She also claimed that 'black and brown men' are part of this alleged fascist takeover.
Reid's comments follow Barack Obama's attempt to shame black men into voting for Harris by accusing them of bias against her because she's a woman. As the 2016 election showed, it's unwise to blindly trust the polls and the election isn't over until it's over. However, several indicators suggest that Harris does not inspire trust or optimism among most Americans.
Minority voters, including black men, have been vocal about their dislike for Harris, and her gender is rarely mentioned as a reason.
According to surveys, the issues that most American voters care about are the failing economy and stagflation, mass immigration and open borders, and foreign policy leading to World War III. Regardless of their race or gender, these are the concerns that matter most to people. The prospect of electing the first black woman president pales in comparison to these problems.
Black male voters are increasingly distancing themselves from the political left, not because they are turning "fascist", but because they're finally realizing the game that's being played with their futures.
Bottom Line
Joy Reid's controversial comments about black and brown male Trump supporters being part of a 'global fascist phenomenon' have sparked a heated debate. It raises the question: Are these remarks a reflection of the broader views of the progressive left or just a desperate attempt to regain lost ground in the polls?
