First Workers, Now Blacks: Democrats' Betrayals For Big Business Are Piling Up, But Can Republicans Seize It?
Now roughly 72 percent of black New York City residents aged 18-44 are banned -- banned -- from entering dining establishments.
By Christopher Bedford | OCTOBER 1, 2021
(Watch the video for a monologue on this article and an interview with the Conservative Partnership Institute's Wes Denton on where the left lost track — and how the right can win.)
Democrats' summer of Black Lives Matter is over. Front-line nurses' year in the sun has passed. Gone are the COVID cries to evict no one ever for any reason at all. Disparate impact? Never heard of her. It’s 2021 now; we've advanced.
These aren't simple proclamations. Go and read a newspaper from September 2020, and then glance at one from this past month. The political debates are nearly unrecognizable, it’s almost impossible to believe that the same people were often making both policies.
New York City is a leader in world liberalism. For years — and especially since May 2020 — its politicians have mangled their schools, their parks, their police force, and their courts, all in the name of fighting racism. Most of the time, the changes they made hurt blacks more than whites, but that's beside the point; in liberalism, it's the effort that counts.
New York City is also a leader of the world's COVID cult. New Gov. Kathy Hochul says that if you want to serve God, you must receive the sacrament of vaccination. Mayor Bill de Blasio has decreed that all restaurants must see proof of vaccination before service.
There's the snag: Today in New York City, roughly 72 percent of black residents aged 18-44 have not taken the novel vaccine, meaning now roughly 72 percent of black residents aged 18-44 are banned — banned — from entering dining establishments.
Statewide, 53 percent of black residents aren't vaccinated, compared to only 44 percent of white residents who have declined the shots; yet this week, the state's governor announced she would use the powers of this unending emergency to fire and replace as many as 72,000 health workers for refusing the vaccine.
In New York City, health-care workers were lauded as both heroes and COVID experts just weeks ago. Most of those workers are women, a plurality are black, and now, thousands of them might be out of jobs. The hospital system never collapsed due to COVID, but it might collapse due to Hochul's measures to fight it.
New York City is not alone in reversing course: Down south in Florida earlier this month, one apartment owner promised to evict any tenants who decline the vaccine. It's unsafe to be near the unclean, he said. So black mother Jasmine Erby and her two children were given the boot.
"There was no loophole, no working with me, no extensions and I literally had to walk away," Irby told Fox News. "It was either get the shot or get out."
What a difference 12 months makes. Over the course of 70 years, the Democratic Party grew from the party of segregation that Martin Luther King Jr. marched against to the party that commands 90 percent of black votes.
In the summer of 2020, the desires of black Americans were the sole obsession of the Democratic Party. Remember all those doctors and public health officials signing a letter that claimed protesting against racism was the sole valid justification for ignoring stay-at-home orders? And now they seem to want to throw all that away — all sacrificed at the altar of Covid hysteria.
Political History Can Help Explain What's Going On
But while that might explain what, it doesn't explain why, so what more is at play here? The answer might be found in the same history that transformed the Republican Party of Abraham Lincoln into the Republican Party of Richard Nixon. That transformation is the story of business — and class.
The 1950s and 1960s Republicans never decided they didn't like black people, despite what liberals might claim. In 2021, Democrats didn't either, despite those viral accusations that "Democrats are the real racists!" Rather, the parties changed in other ways.

America should build a wall around New York to seal off that state like it was some kind of a metastasizing malignant cancer that needs to be surgically removed from an otherwise reasonably healthy body. The Bolshevik Hochul is playing the "illusionist's trick" (read link below):

Do we need to be reminded New York is where the New York Times vomits out its diatribe on Covid?
