The CBC invited an author who wrote about "detonating" white people, while "the exits are locked and the air vents [are] filled with gas" to be interviewed on their flagship arts program.
The CBC host then explained that she was Jewish, but apologized to the author that his experience of the world made him feel this way.

— Roberto Wakerell-Cruz ✝️ (@Robertopedia) April 26, 2021During this program, an excerpt from his book was read where he considered what his actions would be in a race war.
"When this race war hits its crescendo. I'll gather you all into a beautifully decorated room under the pretense of unity. I'll give a speech to civility and all the good times we share; I'll smile as we raise glasses to your good, white health, while the detonator blinks under the table, knowing the exits are locked and the air vents filled with gas."
After the host read this passage aloud, she responded by saying: "I mean that's... I'm a Jewish person, and my grandparents survived the holocaust. I can't tell you how it felt to read that sentiment, and I wanted to say to you that I'm so sorry that your experience of the world made you feel that way."

Q is the highest-rated show in its time slot in CBC history and is known for generating a younger audience. Q was hosted by Jian Ghomeshi until he was accused of sexual misconduct in 2014.
Philippe's new book (the one with the excerpt about gassing white people) is called "Sure, I'll be your Black Friend."
The CBC host asked the author about his imagined race war. In his book, the host said that Philippe asked "what would happen if there was a race war and what side you would be on. And you took it to a place that I found really shocking," she said.

ReplyDeleteYou don't get to choose your side in a race war. If you try to do so, and try to side with a race not your own, you'll be used then disposed of, and that's if you're lucky.
ReplyDeleteIn the coming race war, I'm pretty certain it will be blacks against everyone else first. Considering the accuracy of their "drive by shootings" they will run out of ammo in the first three days with little or nothing to show for it. All the other races will still be brewing coffee by the time the Koreans have pretty much mopped them up.
