The racial inequity of beer gardens.


I asked Grok to fact check: "Tom Tiffany's post highlights Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley's 2021 statement that beer gardens, golf, and marinas contribute to racial inequity in parks funding because they are predominantly supported by white users with discretionary income. Crowley, the Democratic nominee for Wisconsin governor, made the remark while discussing sustainable parks budgets and his administration's use of a Racial Equity Budget Tool to assess impacts on communities of color. The resurfaced comment draws attention amid the Wisconsin gubernatorial race, where beer gardens generate millions in revenue for county parks in a state famous for its brewing heritage and outdoor culture."

Ah yes, coming out against beer in Wisconsin. The political instincts of the modern Democrat party. "What's the least popular position we can take? And then blame racism for people not voting for us!"

Seriously, it's not even a good reason. Like, say, "I oppose drinking because drunken people and the fact it's unhealthy." That's at least defensible. Nope, it's "Don't drink beer because you are white and drinking beer is racist!"

Does that mean any time we see a black person drinking mead (no relation to our hostess!) that's racist too?

Meanwhile, the ladies of the View, i.e. the moral arbiters for AWFL's everwhere, are now claiming multiple horrific things. Like, Sonny Hostin is bragging about how she was the lone vote to get a literal cannibal murderer off a decade or so ago. The guy killed and ate his female roommate and Hostin is proud she voted against his conviction. And then blamed the husband of Lindsey Clancy for not staying in that marriage... what's a little infanticide and murdering your kids, right? Only women should get divorced on a whim, just because they saw a better set of abs on a guy in Vegas! That's a good reason to get divorced, but a man has to stick by his wife even when she's murdering his kids!

Then they wonder why men aren't so eager to marry a leftist woman anymore in the first place.

It can't be said often enough that democrats obsession with race is weird and stupid.

Our Better Angels are standing by with their 'Racial Equity Budget Tool', to get us through this difficult period of adjustment. I previously thought this was known as flash mobs hitting up the higher-priced luxury goods stores, ripping stuff off the hangers and shelves and dashing out the door - but apparently I was misinformed. That is NOT the Racial Equity Budget Tool in action, it's a completely different kind of equity.

Systemic racism is a Marxist concept. Look for Crowley to come out as a member of DSA.

A measure of Diversity? DEIsm or affirmative discrimination in policy? Maybe, baby. #HateLovesAbortion

Original Mike म्हणाले...

We need affirmative action at the beer garden door. Deny white people entrance when the number already admitted exceeds quotas. That will force a group of 9 white people to go recruit a black person if they want a drink. Or, if we're not counting Hispanics as white, I guess that number could be reduced to 5 or 6. Clearly, we need the courts to give us a number.

Back... black hole... whore h/t NAACP at the intersection of racism and sexism politics? With benefits.

Grievance and stupidity, a bad combination.

Original Mike म्हणाले...

"predominantly supported by white users with discretionary income."

So, it's not just white people. It's white people *with discretionary income*. What's the ratio of white people with discretionary income to black people with discretionary income? The courts have their work cut out for them.

White as in albino? Black as in exclusion from Rainbow parades? Albinophobia, perhaps, incorporated under the Diversity umbrella.

They need to add Colt 45 and Night Train to the menu, that will balance the market.

There will always be a debate about how race and wealth interact, but they are still two different variables. (And the relationship is very complicated.)

The left is really shooting themselves in the foot by letting the right control the debate about race when they keep making blanket, quotable, statements like: X, Y or Z is racist.

Now do Crack Dens & Street Takeovers.

The GOP should focus on DEMOCRATS giving ILLEGALS DRIVERS LICNESES.
To enable fraud and death. Dangerous unqualified drivers and voting. Death and vote cheating - right up the vile left's alley.

ILLEGALS VOTING. Ah yes - just today - another 30,000 illegals given drivers licenses - able to vote.

The GOP should focus on the fact that Illegals are getting our benefits.

Defund the Police and Defund ICE are the same thing.

In another obvious example of racial disparity, the parks district doesn't provide crack houses.
