"Today, kids again are being taught that the color of their skin defines them -- and if they look a certain way, they're an oppressor," he stated. "From colleges to corporations to our culture, people are making money and gaining power by pretending we haven't made any progress. By doubling down on the divisions we’ve worked so hard to heal."
"You know this stuff is wrong," he proclaimed. "Hear me clearly: America is not a racist country."
He also noted in the same speech how supposedly tolerant leftists often called him racist names like "Uncle Tom" and the "n-word," and also called out the Washington Post for a ridiculous "analysis" they did suggesting his black ancestors who survived the Jim Crow era were privileged because they owned "unusually large amounts of land" in the 1920s.
As Bonchie reported earlier, it did not take long for some of those so-called "tolerant" leftists to prove Scott’s point perfectly. A number of prominent Twitter liberals, some of them privileged and white, predictably took to referring to Scott as the GOP’s token black man, and in numerous cases called him an "Uncle Tom."
But while "Uncle Tom" didn't trend on Twitter last night, an equally disgusting term --a different version of it designed specifically for Scott -- did. For roughly 11 hours after Scott’s speech, "Uncle Tim" trended, with some of the same people who likely have "COEXIST!" bumper stickers on their cars joining in on the racist bashfest.
