If you have been paying attention you have seen that the Proregressive* haters have gone on a racist rampage against Senator Tim Scott who presented the response to Biden’s speech. They decided to mock him by calling him “Uncle Tim”. I hesitate to point it out but this is an allusion to the tradition of racist of calling conservative blacks “Uncle Tom”. A further point is that this hails back to the novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe. I might also point out that it was one of the items that led up to the Civil War.
The Marxists in government, business, entertainment and media are continuing their attacks on America with the cancel culture. The latest target is Senator Scott. I am hoping that they have mis-calculated on this one. I watched Ted Cruz do an interview with him on the podcast Verdict. I was impressed. I don’t think he will be easily intimidate. To the contrary, I think he will begin to wear this as a badge of shame.
I can see a whole line of badges and bumper stickers saying, Just Call Me Uncle Tim. Or Tim Spoken Here. Maybe a clothing line. Insults often are embraced by the insulted because those attacked often live on a higher plain than the smug. Maybe it can be more along Tiny Tim from The Christmas Carol than the one who tiptoed through the tulips. He was instrumental in changing the heart of scrooge, but keep in mind that the hearts of the modern Progregressives* are much harder than that of Scrooge.
Feel free to call me an Uncle Tim any time.

I deeply suspect that 99.9% of people who use the term "Uncle Tom," are ignorant clods who've never even read the book. However, Uncle Tom was a good Christian man, even if they DID know what he was like, they'd hate him.
ReplyDeleteThey probably think an Uncle Tom is a cookie like an Oreo.
