Well I saw that video and I have to say, on that issue he's dead right.
On this I must disagree. We got this “rant” a couple of weeks after Adams leaks info tied to the Israelis setting up Gaetz. This video was one of the most rancid, rotten pieces of low hanging fruit I’ve seen from a person presumably on the right side of history. Be careful because not only was his rant distasteful and hyperpolarizing on the right but those rallying around him are dosing their online persona with a poison pill. I suspect he had to put this out as retaliation for causing others to lose face from his prior actions.
I know a lot of people have no use for him and his games regarding the vaxx, but it's worth taking a stroll through his Twitter timeline and reading some of the back and forth from triggered leftists.
He did a podcast where he talked about a recent poll that showed 48% of blacks hate white people. Adams basically said he wants nothing to do with people who hate him and wants to stay away from them. Of course the media is saying he's the racist one, not the blacks who hate white people. He's taking the race hustler's words and throwing them back in their faces.
So wait a minute. He reacts to the results of a poll and gets canceled? IF, and I do mean, "IF" the poll is accurate, and as he said, nearly half of all black Americans either think it's not okay to be white or aren't sure if it's okay ... is that NOT racist? I don't know if the poll was accurate, but if the answer to the question, "Is it okay to be white?" was No by anybody, then clearly that person is racist. So he is reacting to THAT racism by saying he's not okay with that and suggesting the group that is not okay, stay away from the group that says they are not okay. And he's being racist. Okay.
If the data he is referencing is factual, then there is absolutely nothing wrong with what he said.
You would have to be purposefully ignorant to not know that the fires of racism have been stoked in the black population. They are being told on a daily basis that white people of the past and present are the authors of all the troubles that they have. As a group, they hate white people and are allowed to express that hatred in word and deed with no pushback. But a statement of "All Lives Matter" or "It's okay to be white" is demonized and the person expressing it deserves to be destroyed. It's ludicrous and obvious what is going on here, and I'm tired of it. I don't give any consideration to what imbeciles say or think about me. I'm racist - fine. I'm homophobic - great. I'm transphobic - peachy. The truth is that I don't actively hate anyone. At worst I just don't fucking care about you and your problems - I'm busy with my own. Every single group of person that I am purported to HATE would be perfectly safe around me in any environment where they weren't seeking to actively harm me or others. Can any of those groups say the same about my safety?
The headline should read: “racist” rant
He was talking about vaxx too much, so they distract him with race

An example of what Scott Adams meant. He’s not wrong.
