When Claudine Gay announced her resignation from her position as president of Harvard University, while somehow maintaining her $900,000 annual salary, the diversity, equity, and inclusion crowd went into overdrive to label Gay as the ultimate victim of racism. This response highlights the absurd inconsistency leveraged by pseudo-intellectuals such as Gay to climb the intersectional ladder of power. When it’s convenient, they stand proudly as individual icons of their identity group. But when it’s inconvenient — for example, when the predictable consequences of their voluntary actions finally come to light — they recede into the shadows, hiding behind the group’s collective victimhood status. Through this openly racist lens, it’s racist to hold certain races responsible for their actions. Imagine if any college president ignored, downplayed, or defended students rampaging around their campus calling for black students to be murdered, or for black students to be driven into the ocean, or for black women to be raped and mutilated. Would their silence go unnoticed?
