Kamala Harris and Tim Walz released a cringeworthy 'interview' in which they poked fun at Walz for being a 'white guy.' Apparently, white men don't eat spicy foods and stick to tuna fish and mayonnaise. Why are such stereotypes okay?
In the late 1970s, 'Saturday Night Live' ran a sketch with Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor in which the black and white comedians engaged in a word association game that consisted of them hurling racial slurs at each other, culminating in the racial slur. It was hilarious and something that would never be broadcast today. But what can be broadcast today was the bizarre 'white guy taco' comedy skit that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz released this week.
In the clearly scripted and cringworthy clip, Harris asks Walz if, as a white guy, his tacos consist of mayonnaise and tuna. Then folksy old Tim chuckles and says something about how black pepper is the hottest thing he, as a white guy, eats. Setting aside the fact that white people eat spicy foods like buffalo wings at a rate that boggles the mind, this bit exposes the hypocrisy of the progressive left’s view of race.
The silly sketch from the Democratic ticket isn’t horrible racism that requires a march on Washington, but the Harris campaign picked that specific joke and it's not an isolated incident. Walz as the self-deprecating white guy, sitcom dad is clearly a theme they are pushing. More and more Americans, especially those four generations removed from the successes of the civil rights movement, are not comfortable with this racial double standard, and for that reason alone we should knock it off.
The Harris campaign, much more so than the Biden campaign, is seeking to treat Americans not as equal and unique individuals, but as members of their racial group, with separate Zoom calls and rules about jokes. It is well past time for Americans to reject this kind of thinking and return to the very simple and easy way of treating everyone the same way regardless of their race. Sadly, that is not something Harris and her campaign seem to want.
