2019.07.19 Erica Thomas (D)
To play off of anti-Trumpism, Georgia Democrat and State Rep (Erica Thomas) claimed in a sobbing twitter post, that at a Publix Grocery store, a “white man” called her a “lazy son of a bitch” and told her to “go back to where she came from" and that “People are getting really out of control with this white privilege stuff.” Then to her surprise, Eric Sparkes, the accused man who is an anti-Trump, far-left, AOC supporting Cuban (not white), stepped forward and called bullshit. He explained that she had 20 items in the express lane limited for 10 (and there were two other lanes open). He complained to the store associates, but they told him to tell her... so he did so politely. When he did that, witnesses and store videos seen to corroborate that SHE got in his face and got confrontational and then SHE told HIM to "go back where he came from", repeatedly... and then he called her a "lazy bitch" for holding everyone else up and making a scene. But Eric never told Erica to "go back to where you came from" and she was lying/grandstanding. If racism is such a big problem in America, why does the left keep getting caught making up examples of it? FakeFactCheck outlet Snopes misleads their readers on what happened, by not fact checking the claim that Erica Thomas made, but by fact checking satire site Babylon Bee's post that claimed it happened at a Chick-fil-a, and then leaving out a ton of context that would make her look bad from their explanation. So they did correctly say that the Bee story was false, but only readers far more cautious than 99% of Democrats would notice that bait-and-switch, and any that read the omitted context snopes version of events wouldn't know about a bunch of evidence that makes Erica and the Democrats/media look bad.
Even on the Interview you can see that he's actually fairly mild mannered and deferential and she's aggressive and outgoing. So the story of her getting in his face because she was called on her privileged attitude seems believable -- and is far more believable than a stranger telling a black woman to go back to where she came from (a non-sensical attack), out of the blue, as was her initial story.
The Democrat Candidates, Robert "Beta" O'Rourke and Bill de Blasio, fell over themselves to turn molehills into mountains, showing how divisive they are.

The FakeHate grievance industry is so broad, that they are branching out, and have to have multiple divisions. Hey, you get what you incentivize. and the virtue signaling left rewards victimhood -- so people are lining up to join in. This is just the subset of FakeHate that is specifically about fake racial crimes. more... |

None of this is to diminish that there still is real hate in America. But it is rare, and often directed at the right, while here's a few dozen (hundreds) of examples of Faked hate for political gain. Fake Hate still feels like hate. The reason FakeHate happens is partly to incite violence and convince others on the left that anything they do back, is justified, because "they did it first" (even when they didn't). In order to instigate change ("progress") you have to convince people that things are so bad, that they need violence, revolution or change, so the left has always been more willing to go there. And the media has been willing to suppress the side of stories they don't like. The WSJ published a study that fully 66% (2/3rds) of "Hate Crimes" turn out to be faked, and only 1/3rd are real. That surge in hate crimes after Trump's election was more by the left than the right. If anything in here is News to you, then the News hasn't been doing its job. |
