Not the Babylon Bee: Trump pardons Susan B. Anthony, NYT 'cancels' her

John Kasich prepares to do a DNC ad

It's so predictable as to be funny. 

When President Trump says "black," the leftist media says "white." Now that Trump has posthumously pardoned Susan B. Anthony for her arrest in 1872 in violation of the voting law that only permitted men to vote, Democrats, members of the media, and the New York Times, an excellent birdcage crap-catcher, went after Anthony's past. [They had to go back well over a century to come up with their findings.]

Trump pardoned Anthony on Tuesday which marked the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. He pardoned the famous suffragette for the 1872 arrest; she was later convicted for voting illegally and sentenced to pay a whopping $100 fine for court costs.

The former newspaper reported on the President's pardon of Anthony and said of her: "She is also an increasingly divisive figure, adopted by anti-abortion forces and criticized for relegating Black suffragists to the sidelines."

Yes, it was horrible that she was against the killing of the unborn, but give her a break--these were pre-woke days. 

"Susan B. Anthony was pardoned and canceled on the same day," Bearing Arms editor Cam Edwards tweeted.

"They’re gonna do it. They’re really gonna cancel Susan B Anthony," conservative commentator Drew Holden said.

The far-left outlet NowThis later in the day posted a video explaining "why Susan B. Anthony doesn’t deserve your ‘I Voted’ stickers, highlighting the tradition of women voters who place such stickers on Anthony's gravestone." In fact, according the the outlet, Susan B. Anthony deserves the scorn of women who have been born, and they should topple her grave and kick dirt in her cold, dead eye sockets.

It only became an issue for the left when Trump got involved and pardoned her. Had he kicked dirt in her cold, dead eye sockets, they would have excoriated him and called him a misogynist, racist, bad orange man.

"They have perpetuated idealized versions of Anthony and her white colleagues such as Carrie Chapman Catt and Elizabeth Cady Stanton," NowThis producer Luria Freeman said. "Evidence of their ruthless racial bias has been pushed to the shadows, enabling the erasure of their women of color counterparts who also fought tirelessly for the right to vote."

This same group of virtue signaling phonies, however, refuse to go after teachers' unions for their blatant racist policies that forbid lower socio-economic families school choice, or charter schooling during the pandemic.

Freeman added, "Susan B. Anthony only appeared to care about Black people when the status quo was in her favor" and later concluded that she was not saying that Anthony was "the most racist fraud who ever lived" since there were "many more racist, white women's suffragists." For example, you have Margaret Sanger, who founded Planned Parenthood, hated blacks, Jews and applauded eugenics and the eliminating children with mental and physical abnormalities.

"Trump broke their brains.... LMAO," writer Ryan James Girdusky exclaimed.

Democrats have also condemned Trump's pardon of Anthony.

"Pathetic. Trump pardons a woman who has been dead for over 100 years to show his commitment to women. Suburban women aren’t dumb. We are all insulted," mindreader and U.S. Rep. Jackie "The Dummy" Speier (D-CA), wrote, clearly not insulted.

C'mon, man. You know you want to follow Brain Flushings--it's free and worth every penny. And remember, every time you click on an ad, an angel gets its wings and a liberal sheds a tear.
