DNC National Committee Member Resigns, And The Reason Is Emblematic Of Everything Wrong With Modern Culture.

You guys, I’m about to defend (sort of) a DNC National Committee Member. Brace yourselves.

According to this, Florida Democratic National Committee member John Parker has resigned after getting a bunch of backlash for calling black people “colored people” instead of “people of color.”

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People could not be reached for comment.

KIDDING. I have no idea if anyone tried to contact the NAACP, but I would love to hear their thoughts on this matter, what with their acronym being what it is and whatnot.

Anyway, John Parker resigned because a bunch of blacktivists (yeah, I’m saying that) and other party members insisted on it, INCLUDING the committee chairwoman, Lisa King, WHO HE IS IN FACT MARRIED TO.

Here’s a photo of the two of them (from her Twitter account):

Here’s his resignation statement:

“The past several weeks have been a challenging time as mistakes and a misstatement I made, and apologized for, have been misunderstood and give the impression I am something I am not. I have worked tirelessly over the past 35 years to advance our Party and the causes of all working people. I have a record of accomplishment I am proud of; one that has made positive impacts in our community, state and country. I misspoke and used language that was hurtful. I apologized and pledged that I would learn from my mistake. I understand my error perpetuates divisiveness and does not allow us an opportunity for the important types of meaningful discourse – a conversation our party must engage in sooner rather than later – that help us grow as individuals and a party protecting the dignity of all people.

I take responsibility for my mistake and as such is the impetus of my decision. I resign for the good of my Party and all those who are fighting so hard for a better world than the one we are in now. I am confident that a full investigation would have shown that I erred with my mouth, not my heart. I am not what some are portraying me to be, and although I would have preferred the opportunity for due process, I have decided it is best to put our party and overarching goals ahead of this. I will continue my fight for working people – all working people – for the rest of my life.”

What a complete tool.

He would have preferred due process, y’all. But because he’s a Democrat, he’s just gonna go ahead and resign for literally the dumbest reason ever. He is resigning for basically not using a preposition.  That’s it.  For some inexplicable reason, a bunch of liberals have irrationally decided that the preposition “of” makes ALL DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD about whether or not you’re a raging racist.

Let’s just recap:

Saying “Colored People” = Bad.

Saying “People of Color” = Good.

Who cares that those are the exact same thing, you racists. The order of words is EVERYTHING now, because random weird liberals insisted on it, and for whatever reason, our society is complying.

Now, according to Politico, John Parker allegedly, in the past, called the Working People Caucus the “Poor Black People Working Caucus” and also referred to one constituent as “the mayor’s mammy” but he denies those allegations, which were made by State Rep. Kimberly Daniels. So who knows. Maybe he’s a racist. But the fact remains, he’s resigning over NOT using a preposition. That’s literally what he’s resigning over, and frankly, that’s the dumbest thing I’ve heard all week.

His wife also released a statement:

She’s committed, y’all.  So committed. She’s even “demonstrated her committed.”

Perhaps she should demonstrate her commitment to not releasing a statement until it has been proofread.

Of note also, is the fact that State Rep Kimberly Daniels is also calling on John Parker’s wife to resign, because it took too long for her to call on her husband to resign, or something.

Henceforth and forthwith, I’d ask that you all NOT refer to me as a white person, but instead a person of pallor.  Or, alternatively, a person of colorlessness (unless it’s the summertime, in which case you can refer to me as a person with a light tan.)

And why stop there, really?  Instead of saying I’m hungry, I’m going to say I’m a person of hunger.  Instead of saying I’m an American citizen, I’ll say I’m a citizen of America.

Instead of saying I’m a conservative person, I’ll just say I’m right. 🙂
