Another prominent black liberal has come out with an unabashedly racist tweet for Dr. Ben Carson (aka, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. See also “f*ckface” if you are actress Leslie Jones and MUTHAFUKKA if you are actress Samuel L. Jackson).
Presumably these luminaries of color are taking turns venting their spleen at Carson, using the vilest epithet they can think of. For lawyer, journalist, writer, television personality, fashion designer, and women’s and diversity advocate Star Jones — or Star Jones, Esq., as she prefers to call herself on Twitter — the insult du jour is coon. (In a separate tweet, she calls Carson “sh*t for brains,” using an adorable excrement emoticon, so take your pick.)
Did Carson start out as a self-hating coon, or did he develop his “coonery” over time? #QuestionsThatKeepMeAwake # https://t.co/N1Tgys6i25 https://t.co/rOqWTb4Q0R

At the risk of sounding redundant, each of these celebrities is guilty of hypocrisy since a black man they don’t view as Uncle Tom, namely Barack Obama, committed the same egregious error that Carson did, which is to say he called slaves “immigrants,” except that Obama did it eleven separate times.
Even more unforgivable is their need to stoop to the very brand of rhetoric they would reasonably consider vile and offensive if it were heaped on them.
A pox on them all!
