Dumba** f***ing white people': Should NYT's newest writer be fired over racist tweets?
August 02, 2018
- “Dumba** f***ing white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants.”
- "Are white people genetically predisposed to burn faster in the sun thus logically being only fit to live underground like groveling goblins?"
- "#CancelWhitePeople"
- "These are inconvenient truths but we should thoroughly examine them before giving into the PC lie that white people don't smell bad."
- "Oh man it's kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men."
These are just a few of the not-so-PC tweets made by the newest addition to the New York Times’ editorial board, Sarah Jeong. Sarah was recently hired by the Times as the lead writer on technology.
Are these racist?

Before you grab that torch ...
Here's the part where you may be tempted to grab your virtual torch and pitchfork, join the inevitable outrage on social media, and demand a little mob-style justice against Jeong. After all, the progressives use the power of the Twitter-mob against conservatives every day. And, let's face it, it would feel pretty good to see her answer for such offensive rants by losing her job.
But before you do, consider this: You may be feeding into a self-destructive addiction to outrage. Think about how liberating it would be to completely stop wasting precious time and energy dwelling on other people's outrageous nonsense and just move on with your life.
"Here's the thing, I don't know if we're supposed to be a mob and get her fired today, or ... if we should just start taking things out of context and calling her horrible names," joked Glenn Beck, "[Or] you just move on with your life."
