Accountability for the Capitol rioters is not enough, we’re told. Progressives insist there must be a national reckoning for the January 6 “insurrection” because punishing the rioters is insufficient to defeat the real enemy — white supremacism and its endorsement of terrorism when necessary to achieve its vision for society.
It is a cartoon depiction of reality. No belief system is held in more disdain in the United States than white supremacism. To most of us, it is a perversion of the core conviction that we are all created in God’s image, all equal in human dignity, and must thus all be equal in the eyes of the law. For the Left, though, white supremacism is a convenient abstraction; one that gives opportunists the foundation needed to build a “systemic racism” dystopia, their path to influence and profit.
