I think it was an accident. And this fuck uses the word too much.

Well it’s some very interesting timing for such an accident.

That, uh, was definitely a hard ‘r’ there. Jesus Christ.

In other words, an editor of a magazine that explicitly advocated for white supremacy in the 50’s and 60’s let the mask they’ve since put on slip for a second

People downvote the weirdest shit.

“threads.net” = downvote, I reckon

Is there an audio clip?

At the risk of you accusing me of not being a charitable not-moderator-of-this-community, there’s video in the article.

I look forward to you telling us how this is also not racist.

Edit: For downvoters-

Having it clearly explained to you but still not letting it go. Clearly the example Lemmy mods should be aspiring to.

Edit: The point is that a resurrected MLK jr. could have said the same thing Trump said about Kamala and still had it refuted. Racism is besides the point and requires a whole bunch of supporting evidence regarding past statements, policies, and associations for any undecideds that haven’t already made up their mind.

Even better, there is a video of it. He definitely said it.

Cephalotrocity ,

I don’t see it. Is it the Threads link I have blocked?

Same, the embedded media is dead for me too.

wjrii ,

I was all but bending over backwards trying to hear how it might have been just a slip, bringing to bear the fact that both words have a nasal consonant and hard ‘g’ sounds, but… nope. He enunciates an ‘n’ again, clearly after he’s done saying “Haitian” and therefore where it doesn’t belong, and then he gets all the way to the hard ‘-er’, a “murmur diphthong” that simply doesn’t exist in ‘immigrant’ or ‘migrant’. The most charitable explanation with any plausibility whatsoever is that the n-word is a part of his spoken vocabulary and he failed to censor himself quickly enough.

Fuckin’ gross.

It is never an accident.

FlyingSquid OP ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I meant an accident in the sense of “I said something racist out loud when I meant to only say it in my head.” But I don’t think that was the case here.

@apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world avatar

Fair!

That’s exactly what happened in my opinion.
