If you use the expression “legal vote” to describe properly casting a legitimate ballot in a US election, then you are a racist. So sayeth the critical race theorist who sits as the director of Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research.
Ibram X. Kendi, the critical race theorist who finagled his way into a directorship at the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University – and who believes that simply not being racist isn’t enough, insists that the term “legal vote” is “functionally racist.”
“The term ‘legal vote’ is as fictionally fraught and functionally racist as the terms ‘illegal alien’ and ‘race neutral’ and ‘welfare queen’ and ‘handouts’ and ‘super predator’ and ‘crackbaby’ and ‘personal responsibility’ and ‘post racial,’” Kendi posted on Twitter.

Kendi continued to say that there were a plethora of terms that masked institutionalize racism, goading his sycophantic followers to chime in, which many did. His follower base then contributed terms like “deadbeat dads,” “socialism,” “radical left,” “ivory tower,” “elites,” “looting,” “broken windows,” “pro-abortion,” “anti-religion,” “anti-American,” “open borders,” “anti-police,” and “anchor baby”, tantamount to insisting that any terms questioning the Neo-Progressive movement’s pet programs are racist.
“The misinformation of widespread voter fraud – or ‘illegal voting’ – in Detroit, Philadelphia, Atlanta, and Phoenix where Black and Brown voters predominate is baked into the term ‘legal vote,’” Kendi tweeted. “No matter what GOP propaganda says, there’s nothing wrong with those voters and votes.”

After the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the US Supreme Court, Kendi attacked the mother of seven by branding her as a “white colonizer” because she and her husband adopted two Haitian children.
“Some White colonizers ‘adopted’ Black children. They ‘civilized’ these ‘savage’ children in the ‘superior’ ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity,” Kendi said in reference to Barrett.
