The Cowardice of Ta-Nehisi Coates

Coates is really just a grifter.
He’s not well read or educated, but he knows how to game liberal elites into giving him stuff. He reads enough to drop references and book titles with some skill. That pleases SWPL types. He does the authentic black guy bit by living in Harlem (the gentrified part) and posing as a hostile black man. He’s checking off all the boxed for his benefactors.

So, you acknowledge the purported wrong by paying the fake blackmail ransom for that which you did not do and the thieves just up and leave town, right?

Riiiiiiiiiight.........

Besides, the shit was already paid, many times over, long ago and still.

So, he is an example of his race. As such it would only be fitting that other "persons of color" tar and feather him. Black tar, white feathers. Perfect.

ghostsniper: Rudyard Kipling's poem with the line, "That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld [tribute/protection-$]/ You never get rid of the Dane," comes to mind here.
