New York Times Discovers a New Source
of Racism, and This One Could Be the Most
Ridiculous Yet

Original Article

Posted By: Hazymac, 3/4/2023 8:02:03 AM

The New York Times, that intrepid warrior for anything and everything that the Left is hysterical about, on Friday published a lengthy piece about a source of systemic racism that no one has ever noticed before: It seems that equestrian helmets are racist because they don’t accommodate the dreadlocks that some black horse riders wear. One black rider’s mother lamented: “Mostly everything in this sport isn’t designed for us.” Well, that’s got to change, and these Jackie Robinsons of the Coiffure, with the Times’ generous help, are leading the way to the Equestrian

Comments:

The NYT is a business that needs to be put out of its misery.

To the victim class, somebody else has to do something because they are offended. To the merit class, this is an opportunity to take action, fill a need and make a buck. It's America. You decide which path to take.

Equestrian helmets, like most athletic headgear, are designed to protect the head/face and prevent traumatic brain injury, not accomodate the athlete's hairstyle choice (regardless of race).

If you have enough money to compete in equestrian events racism doesn't exist for you. Stop trying to create it. Everyone I know who competes in these events own their own horses, and the families are well off simply because the amount of money, training, and travel needed to compete would bankrupt anyone not making close to a million a year.

#8 nailed it. Having once been part of the equestrian community with a daughter who competed in hunter-jumper events, I can tell you that those velvet covered riding hats do come in different sizes. But then, if that woman just got her daughter a larger hat, it would take away her opportunity to rant about systemic racism.

There are very few things designed for dreadlocks, except perhaps for oversized, knitted beret-shaped caps. Hate to say it (and the blond, White boy son went through a dreadlock phase), but if I had a dog that looked like that, I'd get it treated for mange.

Equestrian sports actually are for the privileged, being very expensive. In addition to redesigning all the equipment for blacks, clearly our country should buy several horses and maintain stables for every black girl who wants to grow up riding horses as part of reparations. We privileged whites owe them this because long ago some white people had some black people as slaves (which they bought from black people, but never mind that.)

Joe Biden will almost certainly not attend the coronation of King Charles III. The official reason is that he is making a trip to Ireland that simply can’t be canceled. The media have focused on two reasons he won’t be there: (1) Eisenhower didn’t attend so there’s no tradition for presidents to attend, and (2) Biden hates the British. I think there are two more likely reasons: (1) Charles III’s coronation is an event without cachet, and (2) it’s impossible for Biden to withstand the rigors of the long coronation ceremony and any pre- and post-ceremony events. Indeed, my money is on the last reason being the real reason.

This week there was what I consider to have been extensive unwarranted attention given to the murder trial in South Carolina of Alex Murdaugh. Unwarranted because it seems to me this is at best a matter of local or regional interest. In the end, those who followed it learned one important lesson for all the coverage they saw or read: Do not carry your cell phone around when engaged in murdering your wife and son because, if you do, you leave a digital footprint easier to trace than Hansel and Gretel’s breadcrumb trail. Alexis de Tocqueville long ago wrote of American’s fascination with courthouse trials, calling it “another theater.”

“What price Churchill?” was the question famously posed by the poster that appeared in the Strand in the last week of July 1939. The Daily Mirror asked: “The writing on the wall? This giant poster is causing considerable comment.” The poster was a plea for Churchill’s leadership. He was finally summoned to serve as Prime Minister upon Neville Chamberlain resignation on May 10, 1940. Churchill recalled in his history of the war: “I felt as if I were walking with destiny, and that all my past life had been but a preparation for this hour and for this trial.” By contrast, President Biden is something of a wrecking ball.
