LINK “Babylon Bee” Editor: Black People Are “Taught from Birth” to See Racism | Beth Stoneburner | Friendly Atheist | Patheos

(If so it's mostly by racist white people that they learn about racism)

We’ve known for a long time now that The Babylon Bee, the Christian version of The Onion that never lives up to that standard, is a toxic publication. They punch down rather than punch up. They regularly make fun of marginalized group. They’re racist. The humor resembles right-wing radio hosts, not the wit of actual comedians.

Need a more recent example? Here’s the site’s managing editor, Joel Berry, responding to the massage parlor shootings this week:

Black Americans are taught from birth to deeply feel every look, comment, slight, and failure, connect it with traumas of their ancestors, and silently ask themselves: “Is it because I’m black?” I wouldn’t wish that existence on anyone. The Left wishes it on the Asian community.

Tucker Carlson loves the Babylon Bee. He probably reads it while on the toilet.
