No Action Due To "Privilege"

Joe came across a clip from Law and Order that will blow your mind. The idea is that people won't take criminal action against serious criminals of another race because of the false idea that they have privilege.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So came across this. This is you know, not that
many people watch network TV, although if they are, there's
a good damn chance they're watching Law and Order, one
of the Law and Order franchise's still a very, very
popular show. This happened the other night, But Nalie Jay
Watson raped you. Do you think I've forgotten? How could I?

(00:24):
This entire trial has been an exercise in reminding me,
and this is your chance to do something about it.
I'm going to believe me because I can. I can
afford therapy. I have that luxury, and maybe one day
I'll be okay. But if that teenager goes to prison,

(00:51):
it may not be. Wow. Never Wow, I don't want that. Wow.
Woke white woman refuses to go ahead with the prosecution

(01:11):
of young black man who forcibly raped her because of
her privilege and it would be wrong. Wow, one of
the most popular shows on TV. Now, I will tell you.
The cops involved had looks of you've got to be
kidding me, don't do this on their faces. Wow, Whew.

(01:33):
One of the comments from this writer, who was one
of several who posted it, was liberal white women suffer
from pathological empathy, which has convinced them that the oppressor
if that the oppressor, if they're black, or trans or
an immigrant, is oppressed, meaning you can rape, you can

(01:56):
be one of those mobs. Happens every damn day, by
the way, new video comes out, white victim has the
hell beat out of them by a mob of color
or whatever, but it never makes the news because it's
not a useful narrative. But anyway, what these people believe
is that if the oppressor in that moment is oppressed
in the big picture, then they should not be held

(02:19):
responsible for their own actions at all. And to the
point of this woman being forcibly raped, says no, I
can afford counseling. I'll be fine someday, But if that
young man goes to prison, he won't be fine. And
I'm not going to be part of that. I gotta
believe that there's a fair number of people out there
who've had some horrifying things happened to him, saying to

(02:39):
their radio, yeah, I've had years of therapy. I ain't okay. Yeah.
And just to finish this point made by Ali Stucky,
the writer I mentioned, and while it may seem selfless,
it's actually a form of narcissism born of the toxic
self love culture that consumes them, because it allows them
to pose as heroes and say yours I thought that

(03:02):
was a really good point. You know, we've used the
term virtue signaling is have I'm sure all of you
many times to describe this sort of thing. But yeah,
it does allow you to haul yourself up on the
cross or whatever metaphor you want to use and say, look,
how incredibly enlightened I am. Even though anybody possessed of

(03:26):
even a shred of the ability to think critically logically recognizes, well,
if you systemically don't hold people to account for aberrant,
nay horrifying behavior, you're going to end up in a violent,
horrible dystopia. It's obvious. Wow, that is something. Is that

(03:46):
a recent episode? Yeah? Wow, we'll have to play that
again later. That's too good or bad? How crazy is that?
That is something? And we hear from young men all
the time who say, I would like to have a
girlfriend or get together with some of these women. But
they are nuts and they're militant, and they're angry, armstrong

(04:10):
