Forbes contributor: Will Smith’s Oscar slap ‘rooted in white supremacist culture’

It turns out that the Will Smith slapping incident is not merely Donald Trump’s fault. It’s the result of white supremacy that somehow permeates the very liberal, super progressive entertainment sector.

That appears to be the conclusion of Forbes contributor Maia Niguel Hoskin who writes for the news outlet in the diversity, equity, and inclusion category.

Hoskin’s essay claims, in part:

“Some argue that this is not about Will Smith and Chris Rock being Black or Will Smith ‘setting Black people back.’ This is about a much larger systemic issue rooted in white supremacist culture designed to police the behavior of Blacks amongst the who’s who in Hollywood and beyond. Respectability politics suggest that equity and fair treatment require that Black people — both inside and outside of Hollywood — conduct ourselves in a manner deemed acceptable to whites.

“Furthermore, expressing any emotion other than complacence, apathy, or agreeance directly violates those norms, disqualifying Black people from receiving the same equitable treatment that whites enjoy as a birthright. And sadly, there is a large group of Blacks who have internalized this toxic messaging,” the author and activist who says she teaches graduate-level courses in counseling added.

Many observers maintain, however, that the incident at the Oscars, which the Academy says is under investigation, was primarily the result of a tawdry family dynamic in which an individual might feel emasculated by the highly publicized, independent social life of his spouse. Comedian Rock, the recipient of the slap, was only collateral damage.

“Will Smith believed he could reclaim his manhood in the eyes of his wife and the public by assaulting a much smaller man,” Breitbart’s John Nolte theorized.

Interest in, and thus viewership of, these typically self-congratulatory, virtue-signaling awards ceremonies are steadily declining; most of the world saw the Smith-Rock confrontation after the fact, via social media.

In the meantime, Rock is winning praise for staying composed as well as refraining from any obvious follow-up jokes that suggested themselves in the situation.

Parenthetically, fading SiriusXM radio host and Joe Biden fanboy Howard Stern, who used to invite the 45th president — when he was a real estate mogul and reality TV host — on his show all the time, claimed that “Will Smith and Trump are the same guy.”

In response to the Forbes article, the college professor seems to be getting schooled on Twitter. Here is just a small sampling:

  1. Every time I see one of those videos of a bunch of black well fed females brawling because their fries were cold I think to myself – self, THAT is NOTHING but the result of WHITE SUPREMACY in action!! It’s the WHITE MAN’s fault! WHO passed the LAWS that enabled them to get the ebt cards to sell for cash so they COULD get those fries?? PROBABLY a bunch of old WHITE MEN!! All the blacks shooting blacks? YEP – WHITE SUPREMACY in action!! WHO invented those guns?? WHITE MEN! The bast rds!!

  2. The world is shown black on black violence on TV, but, somehow this is white supremacy? Only someone with a severe case of cranial rectunitis could come up with that. That the same person would blame President Trump for 2 black men committing black on black crime, shows how devastating stage 4 TDS can be to a person’s mental health. FJB

  3. There is no white supremacy period. Asian Americans are far outpacing whites. Leftists repeat lies and like magic it becomes fact. Wake up folks.

  4. Respectability “politics” otherwise known as personal responsibility, require that ALL people conduct ourselves in a manner acceptable by society and the rule of law.

  5. White culture of ANY kind has NOTHING to do with it. Read some history on Africa you MORON !! It’s historically a country of Tribal Warfare, rape and taking each other as SLAVES that they then SOLD to Europeans and ANY other Dominate Black Tribe in Africa !! SO………GFY !

  6. comments like these completely exposes BLM as a Fraud!

    btw Will and Jada lead separate lives, they have an open marriage! And the “slap” was planned in order to bring relevance to the dying Oscars and the Pedophiles in Hollywood.

    GO back and watch it in slow motion, it was a Hollywood slap, FAKE! Also Jada and Will and everyone at their table were laughing at the joke till the cameras panned over to them, then they had their faux outrage.

  7. So you become rich from white supremacy and attack the hands that feed you. Maybe whites are supreme because blacks abort their own, kill their own and have failed to take responsibility for their actions. America is and will always be the land of opportunity. Just ask the rich Black Citizens

  8. This is all about entitled, narcissistic, out of control black privilege. Smith is a typical black cuck/thug. This Hoskin slob is a race obsessed, race baiting, white-hating p.o.s.

  9. so, black on black violence is ok, black violence on all other races is ok, white on black violence is racist, gotcha.

  10. Blog Blog Blog, Just another way dem_wits trying to (cya) cover for their past/current k-hood connections…. Dem party is the original “triple k in their hood”

  11. The racist blogger suggests that colored people are incapable of the self control necessary for a civilized society. Not attacking someone who hurts your feelings is not a white thing, it is the civilized thing to do. Perhaps that is why there is less violence among white people.

  12. This guy is systemically full of shit !
    This is clearly about systemic , deep rooted , black arrogance and ignorance…
    The RULES don’t ever seem to apply when it’s a black man…Social ignorance, and the inability to thrive and survive in a world that has rules, just seem to escape black America !
    Sorry, this ain’t Trumps fault, it isn’t white privilege , or that newly minted expression, systemic racism… It is systemic IGNORANCE… end of story.
    Had enough YET , America ?
