Sometimes woke television presenters in the United States push the envelope way too far. They make sordid statements, false allegations, or in the case of African American tv presenter, the ultra-woke Joy Reid —a woman who scornfully laughed at Ann Coulter back in its day when she said on Bill Maher that Donald Trump would win the presidency—, gets her show cancelled for calling out Israeli leadership as the ones responsible for the massacres in the context of the current conflict between Hamas and the Israeli Defense Forces.
This goes to prove that no matter how much of a minority you are, how much woke and to the left you get, if you call out the wrong crowd, you will suffer the consequences.
While MSNBC says that the reason they’re pulling Reid’s show out of circulation is because of tanking ratings, which comes as no surprise because only five minutes of watching that program would make you want to start reading a book, the backstory is another. And that backstory is the one we’re going to explore today as we take a look at what happened to Joy Reid.
What Happened To Joy Reid?
When Hamas started a barrage of rocket fire in the middle of Yom Kippur last week, sparking the outrage from all of the Israeli allies, the mainstream media, was sidelined with the official Israeli narrative. This doesn’t come as a surprise, after all, there’s a strongly overrepresented demographic in the boards, editorial rooms, and decision-making bodies of the media, that identify as Jewish and through group evolutionary strategy, protect, uphold, and push everything that aligns with Zionist interests.
It’s A Matter Of Censorship, Conflation, & Manipulation
So, when Joy Reid came out and says that Israel is responsible for the massacres, it was only a matter of seconds before the board of directors, editors, and decision-making bodies, all of whom have a common ethnic denominator went after her to show Reid, an African American woman exercising her freedom of speech who her masters are.
These overrepresented ethnic minorities in mainstream media have managed to conflate the criticism of Israeli domestic and foreign policy with antisemitism.
This Is Not The First Time This Happens
And Reid is just another victim of that. It’s not the first time it has happened. Back in the day Academy Award-winner and tv presenter Whoopi Goldberg, —whose real name is Caryn Elaine Johnson used a Jewish stage name to fit better amongst the Hollywood Elite— said that the Holocaust “wasn’t really about race” and faced a lot of backlash and criticism that forced her to apologize.
Frank Opinions Are Censored
You see, for those running the big mainstream media, whose ethnic identity makes them promote an ethnoracial interest, if you have —in their eyes— the wrong opinion, you are worthy of ostracism, criticism and have the worst things happen to you.
In some regions, you can’t compare the events that took place in Central Europe between 1939-1945 to other massive tragedies with human casualties because the owners of the mainstream media, their lobbyists and special interest groups push the narrative that the events that took place in Europe in those years are ontologically unique.
This form of intellectual blackmail is exactly what happened to Joy Reid. While I differ strongly from the politics that Reid pushes, I do have to tip my hat in her favor because she had the courage to decry how a group of oppressed people rose up in a historically conflicted area.
Reid’s Mistake
If Reid wanted to keep her job, firstly, she would’ve produced a show worthy of ratings, which is the official narrative reason as to why MSNBC gave her the boot. But if she wanted to criticize Israeli defensive and domestic policy, she would’ve had to talk to her producers to do it in a clever, closeted and smart way, by presenting facts instead of opinionated outlandish statements.
Reid Didn’t Do The Homework
Had Reid and her producers done their homework, they would’ve pointed out that it was Israeli leadership who promoted Hamas.
PM BiBi Netanyahu himself, along with Shlomo Ben Ami (former Israeli Foreign Minister) or Mossad’s former top boss Ami Ayalon that the Israeli administration has done everything in their power to guarantee that Al Fatah and the National Palestine Authority are no longer partners and that they, in order to counter the late Yasser Arafat buttressed Hamas as an emerging force, this is a fact confirmed also by republican congressman Ron Paul, a man who Reid would never quote in a positive way, even if it goes with the grain of her narrative.
