Why?

  Perhaps this was meant to be rhetorical but I'll spell it out. The site is a poster child for the alt right. It's quite literally a case of Jews funding blacks to churn out anti-white propaganda.

    Can you give me a source for this?

      You know what? I'm glad you asked because I actually can't. Donald E. Graham is apparently not Jewish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_E._Graham https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_E._Graham So that was definitely a bit of embarrassing, misremembered narrative overreach on my part. The point is that a lot of what these alt right guys are doing is a kind of cultural criticism, and if they can make a case for an overarching anti-white narrative in popular media it's a pretty short hop from there to the JQ. Particularly when there are things they can point to and say "look, this is what your beloved minorities say about you behind your back" - it's a huge recruitment tool. That's why it's rational to hope that white people do not discover The Root.

        But do you have anything credible to support the argument that the Root is "anti-white propaganda?"
        • probablybanned 9y ago
          Obvious prima facie. If we don't agree on this we don't inhabit the same intellectual universe. Maybe your issue isn't the claim that the editorial slant is anti-white, but with my use of the term propaganda? Don't take that to mean much, I view most media as propaganda of one kind or another.

        Please keep this sort of ideological crap well away from HN.
