The stupid and hypocritical double standards thread

[Tooting Carmen]

A list of syndromes that indicate severe hypocrisy and double standards:

(1) "Strom Thurmond Syndrome". Named after a pro-segregationist US politician who secretly fathered a daughter with his Black maid. Should be used to describe White identitarians/WNs who have relationships with non-whites, including (perhaps especially) from the races/ethnic groups/nationalities they claim to dislike the most.

(2) "Jimmy Swaggart Syndrome". Named after a Christian conservative who turned out to be a promiscuous homosexual and paedophile. Should be used to describe social/religious conservatives who don't exactly live up to their proclaimed ideas and principles.

(3) "Suella Braverman Syndrome". Named after an extremely right-wing, anti-immigration Tory Home Secretary of Indian descent. Should be used to describe immigrants and (at least their recent) descendants who make being anti-immigration a major part of their platform or beliefs.

(4) "Aunt Vivian Syndrome". Named after a character from hit 90's series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, who was played by two different actresses - the second one (Daphne Maxwell-Reid) being conspicuously fairer-skinned than the first one (Janet Hubert-Whitten). Should be used to describe Black and other non-white identitarians who claim to be vehemently anti-White and/or pro-their own group, yet have a notable preference for dating/marrying either actual White people, lighter-skinned people from their own group, or both.

(5) "Derek Hatton Syndrome". Named after one of the leaders of the 1980's Militant Tendency within the UK Labour Party, who turned out to love money (especially to finance his often unnecessary taxi trips) and the finer things in life. Should be used to describe far leftists who have a conspicuous love of wealth and finery (but only for themselves). Also known as "champagne socialism". (A much more extreme and authoritarian version of this could be called "Nicolae Ceausescu Syndrome", named after Romania's notoriously corrupt Communist dictator).

Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner's peronistas and the so called "boliburgueses" of Maduro's regime would fit the bill to a t.

True. What do you think of my other invented syndromes though?

It is as good a framework to examine some mental conditions just like the now legendary OWD is. Thumbs up.

Aunt Vivian's should be another way to describe OWD anyway, since they are more or less adjacent.

Actually, OWD combines elements of both (3) and (4), but is still distinct from both IMHO.

I don't agree with this one (I agree with the others).

Just because Suella is British Indian, she is not allowed to want ANY MORE immigration?

What if continuing immigration is harmful to the British Indian community?

What if continuing immigration is harmful to the British nation?

Is Suella not allowed to consider either possibility as a patriotic British citizen?
Moreover, do you think that she is unable to be a patriotic British citizen due to her ethnicity?

It's the whole cognitive dissonance of her arguments: "my parents were good hard-working immigrants, whereas all the ones coming in now are not". The classic "oh we are not like them" notion.

It's not cognitive dissonance. Why assume every immigrant group is the same? Even within ethnic groups, there can be differences.

For example, the first wave of Cuban immigrants fleeing Castro were upper and middle class. Many of those who came later weren't the same type of Cuban and it was noticeable.

True, but the point is: why assume that only your parents and those like them are good and hard-working, whereas no other immigrants are?

What if it is true though? Do you think that other immigrants are of the same caliber as (non-Muslim) Indians?

Do you think that conscientious hard-working immigrants are the same as welfare dwellers, criminals and terrorists?

And you dodged all of these questions:

Just because Suella is British Indian, she is not allowed to want ANY MORE immigration?

What if continuing immigration is harmful to the British Indian community?

What if continuing immigration is harmful to the British nation?

Is Suella not allowed to consider either possibility as a patriotic British citizen?

Moreover, do you think that she is unable to be a patriotic British citizen due to her ethnicity?

Is Suella allowed to have a different opinion from the pro-immigration mainstream?

Or must she "stay on the plantation" and keep the opinion that is "expected" of her ethnic group?

This "cognitive dissonance" business seems like a passive-aggressive ad-hominem. Are you accusing her of hypocrisy or not?
