Washington Post is condemned for video urging Americans to set up 'white accountability groups'

[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] The video is the latest in a podcast series called The New Normal hosted by Nicole Ellis

It aired on Friday, and suggests white people segregate themselves into groups to discuss how white people have harmed people of color over history

One expert on the episode, Resmaa Manakem, suggests people take part in these groups for years before they can confront people of color

Trauma therapist Ilyse Kennedy said she took part in one such group and said it was important for white people to feel 'a period of deep shame'

The episode faced backlash, with one saying the suggestions were akin to a 'pseudoreligious movement' and constituted 'neoracism'

#1 Ms. Ellis needs to examine her own inherent racism, but self examination is not a noted trait of her racial group.

#5 These same people will act surprised when their agitating launches a race war. They will plead innocent when they are rounded up because someone kept a list.

They made that easier by making the lists themselves.

#8 we tried to segregate. It's called the suburbs. Then y'all move in and fuck them up.

#9 Red Guard Struggle Sessions

During the Cultural Revolution of Communist China (1966-1976), a favorite tactic of Mao’s fanatical followers was the “struggle session”. If the Red Guard (the youthful fans of Chairman Mao who believed in his infallibility) thought that you were “counterrevolutionary” or that you were not radical enough, they would surround your house and drag you out into the town square. There you and others equally accused of imaginary crimes were screamed at (and beaten) by the Red Guard. Of course your relatives and neighbors would join in, because they would not want to fall into disfavor with the politically correct mob.

They would scream at you that you were a “running dog of capitalism” or that you were an “imperialist” or that you were “rightist”. You would be subjected to “criticism/self criticism” time: they would criticize you and you were expected to agree with the mob and criticize yourself. Or else.

More at link. Substitute "running dog of capitalism" with "white supremacist" or "imperialist" with "nazi" or "rightist" with "racist" and it sounds a lot like we're already there.
