There is not much white people can do right in Robin DiAngelo’s humble opinion. Even when white people have legitimate political grievances, white people exhibit racism by not directing their political frustration at the appropriate target. This is how Robin DiAngelo explains the 2016 election where Donald Trump built a coalition among working class white people to win and unlikely election.

Robin DiAngelo states that working class whites should have directed their anger at the elite whites, in a class warfare like manner. This criticism is levied on Trump voters for not embracing classical Marxism, just as the Soviet Union had done. It essentially states that working class whites should have realized they were part of the proletariat.

Instead, working class whites, who tend to work more manual jobs decided that importing foreign labor, especially illegal immigrants, was a good way to suppress their wages, which is what the (mostly white) elite want. In other words they understand economics better than Robin DiAngelo.

There’s a lot of content in this chapter, but I wanted to highlight this partisan section because her criticism against working class white people is that they do not embrace Marxism like she thinks they should. Robin DiAngelo is very open about this.

Other criticisms of this chapter are the view that black people are these mysterious others that you must have in your life. Robin DiAngelo is a complete racist with how she wants white people to view nonwhite people.

• Postmodernism – the denial of absolute truth in favor of personal experience
• Marxism – the social, political, and economic philosophy named after Karl Marx, which examines the effect of capitalism on labor, productivity, and economic development and argues for a worker revolution to overturn capitalism in favor of communism. (Investopedia)

COVID-19 may take down an independent news outlet

Nobody said running a media site would be easy. We could use some help keeping this site afloat.

Colleagues have called me the worst fundraiser ever. My skills are squarely rooted on the journalistic side of running a news outlet. Paying the bills has never been my forte, but we’ve survived. We have ads on the site that help, but since the site’s inception this has been a labor of love that otherwise doesn’t bring in the level of revenue necessary to justify it.

When I left a nice, corporate career in 2017, I did so knowing I wouldn’t make nearly as much money. But what we do at NOQ Report to deliver the truth and fight the progressive mainstream media narrative that has plagued this nation is too important for me to sacrifice it for the sake of wealth. We know we’ll never make a ton of money this way, and we’re okay with that.

Things have become harder with the coronavirus lockdowns. Both ad money and donations that have kept us afloat for a while have dropped dramatically. We thought we could weather the storm, but the so-called “surge” or “2nd-wave” that mainstream media and Democrats are pushing has put our prospects in jeopardy. In short, we are now in desperate need of financial assistance.

The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $11,500 to stay afloat for the rest of 2020, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.

Election year or not, coronavirus lockdowns or not, anarchic riots or not, the need for truthful journalism endures. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.

American Conservative Movement

Join fellow patriots as we form a grassroots movement to advance the cause of conservatism. The coronavirus crisis has prompted many, even some conservatives, to promote authoritarianism. It’s understandable to some extent now, but it must not be allowed to embed itself in American life. We currently have 8000+ patriots with us in a very short time. If you are interested, please join us to receive updates.
