Call Their Bluff

Arguing with the Left.

When dealing with the mendacious, hypocritical Left, with their gaslighting cant, one of the best things to do is to “call their bluff” – point out the consequences of their beliefs and if they would be willing to actualize those consequences. Do they talk the talk but won’t walk the walk? Now, to argue like this, to call their bluff, would put you in possible peril, so it should be only done if you are in the position to do so, at work, in school, among family and friends, at meetings, etc.  

What to do? If they start talking about “equity,” you can ask - why that doesn’t apply to, for example salary/compensation?  Why doesn’t a CEO make the same as a common worker?  Why does a school principal or academic dean get paid so much more than a regular teacher/faculty or a member of the custodial staff?  Why? How is such a large difference in compensation “equitable?”  Let them explain that and explain why whatever “spin” they give to justify their own unequitable salaries doesn’t also apply to differential outcomes in the general society.

If the USA is a White racist country, then why do so many non-Whites immigrate, both legally as well as illegally, to this country?  If Whites are such privileged racists, making Coloreds suffer so much, then why do the Coloreds insist on living and working amongst Whites?  Why do they insist on enforced racial integration and the diversification of every possible entity? When Whites move away, why is that decried as White flight and the Coloreds chase after the fleeing Whites?  If I had a neighbor tormenting me, I would want to get as far away from them as possible.  I wouldn’t constantly demand to be living with them, I wouldn’t insist on working with them, I wouldn’t insist on going to school with them, and if they moved away, I would celebrate, I wouldn’t complain and follow them around like a demented stalker, attaching myself to them with all of the tenacity of an intestinal parasite. Can the Left explain why we can’t have a racial divorce if Whites and White society are so abusive to “people of color?”

Various aspects of "democratic multiculturalism" as outlined by Salter fit here as well; with members of the majority demanding a "seat at the table" and "heightening the contradictions" by demanding the same rights as all others; I have described this strategy in detail previously.  This is another form of "bluff calling" - but with the rise of "equity" (see above) over "equality" as the new paradigm, the Left may well state that to achieve "equity" the majority has to be denied the same rights as the minority.  We know that the Left believes this, as any observation of today's society makes clear, but we can force them to state so very openly and explicitly.

And, of course, there is the old “tried and true” approach of pointing out that well-off White leftists never want to live among the diverse vibrant coloreds who cause they so ardently champion.  Why do these leftists so nobly forego the benefits of the diversity that they claim strengthens the rest of us? When they retire, instead of moving someplace that has the demographics of a Brady Bunch episode; why don’t they do to Detroit, Camden, the Bronx, the Black sections of Philadelphia or St. Louis, etc.?

Then there is the "diversity paradox."

That’s only a small sample. No doubt you can think of more and no doubt I will think of more; certainly, when confronted by the endless stream of leftist lies and hypocrisy, new ideas of how to expose their stupidity will come to you in the course of argumentation. While the few points cited in this post should definitely be used and stand well on their own merits, they also represent the type of argument you should be using – you can modify these points to fit your own ideas and persona and, as stated, think of new arguments, not only for these issues but others that may come up. 

Of course, the likely response by the Left would be retaliation, social pricing, threats, etc. rather than argumentation, because such questions, this approach, will call their bluff and expose the anti-White hypocrisy of the leftist position. People have gotten in trouble at work for merely asking for a precise definition of “diversity, equity, and inclusion, so, no doubt, challenging those memes will no doubt prompt a more severe reaction.  But, if you wish to do so, go ahead and call their bluff.  They deserve it.
