When the Left in America first started harping about the term 'systemic racism,' it was easy and tempting to pass it off as just another desperate attempt to further divide America from a party that has nothing else to offer.
It was certainly that, but we also should realize that when Democrats accuse conservatives of systemic racism, like most every other accusation they throw up against a wall to see if it will stick, it is also a confession.
Not only do leftists in positions of authority methodically attempt to eliminate representation from white people (particularly straight white men), they are damn proud of it.
Watch Brandon Johnson — not only one of the worst mayors in America today, but likely over the entirety of the nation's history — boast about how his administration has worked to eliminate white men from government.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D):

"Once upon a time, the mayor's office was 70% White men — that is long behind us!"

Hmm. One might almost call his efforts 'systemic.'
Never mind that both the Civil Rights Act and SCOTUS have declared Johnson's activity to be illegal. He doesn't care. He just wants to get rid of all those pesky 'wypipo,' no matter how much it hurts his city.
Rep. Brandon Gill called Johnson out for doing exactly what the Left always (baselessly) accuses Republicans of doing.
We hear a lot from the the left about "systemic racism" in America when nearly every "system" in our country has spent the last decade openly bragging about how they've worked to remove young white men from America's workforce. https://t.co/KWYvxmPf6p

We'd love to see Gill have the opportunity to grill Johnson in the House of Representatives (he's rather exceptionally good at that sort of thing). Perhaps a subpoena is in order to make Johnson answer for defying and proudly scoffing at anti-discrimination laws in the United States.

Have they always been? Yes.
But have they stepped up their racist policies exponentially in the 21st Century?
Also yes.
There has never been an institution, public or private, that deliberately drove white men out of leadership and then became more effective and successful as a result. Driving out white men has always resulted in decline. In every case. Every time. https://t.co/JM9CjgsOwP

There is no denying this objective fact.
And speaking of decline, we all know how Johnson's efforts have worked out for Chicagoans.

"Not well" would be the understatement of the century.
Mayor Johnson: The Mayor's office is now predominantly Brown!

What have you achieved?

Heck, he and Governor JB Pritzker even drove the Chicago Bears out of the city to Gary, Indiana — and Gary doesn't even have any power right now.

Yeah, not exactly.

Oh, that must be one of those "teen takeovers" we keep hearing so much about from Johnson.
In all seriousness, though, Chicago is second only to Houston (which also has a leftist mayor) in volume of violent crime in the country. Yes, Chicago is more dangerous than either Detroit or Memphis.
Brilliant job, Mayor Johnson.

Even better than Rep. Gill interrogating Johnson in Congress would be Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon filing charges against him and the city.
Racial discrimination isn't something to brag about. https://t.co/mSIqVSRqBK

For normal people, no, it is not.
For Communists, it is one of their highest points of pride and crowning achievements.
Thank God the era of efficient, competent municipal leadership is behind us. I can’t imagining going back to that. They didn’t even have any homeless encampments to enjoy. https://t.co/7zNeyFFPtT

It might be safer to live in Beirut today than to live in downtown Chicago.
And that's not even counting the roving gangs of "MAGA Country" Nigerians who assault Jussie Smollett with bottles of bleach.
As he proceeds to be objectively the worst mayor alive right now. https://t.co/AGXPP5DCSJ

He's definitely got some competition in Karen Bass and Zohran Mamdani, that's for sure.
But Johnson is consistently in the top three, if not number one.
Maybe if Chicago wakes up and elects a mayor who hires the best people for the job, instead of one who will only hire people of his preferred races, the Second City might become habitable again.
But we're not holding our breath.
