Summary by JW Williams
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey polled 1000 American adults, but only 13% of those polled, 130 people, were Black. Rasmussen asked the Black Americans only if they agreed with the statement, “It’s OK to be white.” The results were that 53% said they agreed, while 26% disagreed, and 21% were not sure. The sample size that is supposed to represent 40 million Black people in the US was far too small.
The poll also queried whether “Black people can be racist, too.” 79% agreed, 27% disagreed, and 8% were not sure.
Cartoonist Scott Adams responded to the Rasmussen poll by lumping together the 26% of respondents who disagreed with the statement that “it’s OK to be White” and those who aren’t sure, for a total of 47%. He said, “If nearly half of all Blacks are not OK with White people – according to this poll, not according to me, according to this poll – that’s a hate group.”
“I don’t want to have anything to do with them,” Adams added. “And I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to White people is to get the hell away from Black people, just get the f**k away … because there is no fixing this.” He also said that he is “really sick of seeing video after video of Black Americans beating up non-Black citizens,” insisting that it’s “every damn day.”
He then recommended moving to a neighborhood with a low Black population.
Adams’ syndicated cartoon, Dilbert, has been canceled and he says he has lost 80% of his income.
Candace Owens weighed in on the controversy by asking if people would prefer to live in an all-Black neighborhood if economics were not an issue. She reported that Black people comprise 13% of the US population, and half of them are Black men, or 6% of the total US population, who are responsible for 51% of all homicides in the US. Blacks also account for over 50% of all robberies. She said that instead of talking about these statistics honestly, people are called racists and the problem is never fixed.
She pointed out that families missing fathers lead to high crime rates.
Candace said that due to the influence by Black Lives matter, Black Americans are encouraged to hate White people. Celebrities like LeBron James have been active in creating an us vs. them mentality. Critical Race Theory (CRT) in classrooms across the US also divides Americans by race. The university system reinforces division. The media encourages the hatred by Black people against White people.
She said that LeBron James, BLM co-founder Patrisse Cullors, Actress Gabriel Union, DeWayne Wade and CNN host Don Lemon, are hypocrites who push an anti-White narrative, but live in White neighborhoods.
Twitter CEO Elon Musk tweeted, “The media is racist.” “For a *very* long time, US media was racist against non-white people, now they’re racist against whites & Asians.” He added, “Same thing happened with elite colleges & high schools in America. Maybe they can try not being racist.”

Fatherless, the fault of?
My understanding is the phrase ‘it’s ok to be white’ was weaponized. So some people who rejected the phrase were rejecting the weaponization, they were not rejecting white people.
Scott Adams is correct.
