So, now we know exactly “what would happen if some liberal said what Scott Adams did.” Nothing at all.
As is now almost universally known, on a February 22 episode of his Coffee with Scott Adams podcast, the creator of Dilbert and Dogbert drew fire for engaging in what was widely labeled a racist rant. In the context of some depressing data about U.S. race relations — which I argue that he misinterpreted — Adams claimed that there is “no fixing” contemporary American racial dynamics and that white citizens should “get the hell away from black people.” While some writers have contended that Adams was being intentionally hyperbolic, he was universally — and, to most, justifiably — condemned for his series of remarks.
