Michael Eric Dyson brings the stupid . . . --Guest Blogger
— Pixy Misa

. . . every single time. The man’s idiocy is truly a monument to the modern liberal arts education; no greater exemplar of a man educated beyond his means ever strode this vast planet. A self-styled “hip-hop professor” and professor of sociology at Georgetown, Dyson is the perfect embodiment of this maxim I just made up: There is no inanity, no matter how nonsensical, that can’t be successfully peddled if spoken quickly, fluently and with the veneer of wisdom gained from being so frequently wrong.

Today brings two examples from Dyson’s ever-growing archive of fatuous utterances — though, I’m willing to cut him a little slack on the first one, if only because I’ve been known to trip over my words from time to time, myself. But, in this case, the faux pas is fairly egregious and seems (to me, at least) to reflect the aloofness toward, and detachment from average, everyday Americans that so often afflicts academics like Dyson.

DYSON: Look, you got a phone call from your mother on Friday morning telling you about the shooting. Tell us what was going through your head when you first heard that news.

GHAWI: I immediately flipped into the mode that IÂ’ve been trained for and remained calm and try to obtain more information and see what I could do for my mother and check on the status of my sister.

DYSON: Well, how are your mother and sister, by the way?

GHAWI: My mother and father are devastated, as am I, but this is about her right now.

Ghawi’s sister, of course, was actually one of James Holmes’s murder victims in the theater that night. As I said above, having asked my share of accidentally awkward questions in my life, I can’t say such a slip is indicative of rank stupidity; we all say things to utterly embarrass ourselves from time to time. Also, there’s the fact that in doing shows like the one Dyson is doing here, there’s usually a segment producer talking into the host’s earpiece, guiding him through interviews — though, I don’t know that to be a fact. Still, it would seem to be a contributing factor in on-air slips of the tongue, and that’s at least a plausible explanation for his question.

The second example of Michael Eric DysonÂ’s profound feeble-mindedness, however, would be almost comical were it not for the corrosive, insidious nature of the rationale behind it. In this clip, Dyson asks a question that no one else had either the courage to ask, or the piercing insight to ponder. You see, it takes a special kind of obtuseness to figure out a way to steer a discussion of something completely foreign to your own experience into a subject on which you are still a braying jackass, but are seen as something approaching an authority on by other braying jackasses: Racism.

MICHAEL ERIC DYSON: You know, what strikes me here of course, is that when you hear the epithets being hurled on either side about politicization of this issue, we know at the end of the day if that kind of amassing and stockpiling of that kind of, you know, potential to hurt people through that, you know, those bullets and those guns and the gasses and the bombs and the like, if this had been stockpiled by a person who was more likely to look reasonably offensive: a Muslim or another minority, do you think that the red flag would have gone up sooner than with this seemingly innocent young white man, who under cover and protection of appearing normal, was out to do some heinous deeds.

So, in essence, what we have here is a man who is stridently and vocally opposed to the practice of racial profiling trying to make the case that profiling is wrong because it might have worked, but for the fact that James Holmes resides firmly at the Perry Como end of the chromatic temperature scale. You see, in Michael Eric DysonÂ’s world, racial profiling is wrong because different races have different profiles, and what might seem like suspicious activity from a Muslim immigrant from Pakistan may not necessarily grab the attention of the authorities when engaged in by a college student in Colorado named James Holmes.

But, ironically enough, the effect of DysonÂ’s argument is to essentially concede the notion that if James HolmesÂ’s name had instead been Ali Muhammad or Mad Gunman, and his profile had landed him on a watch list somewhere, the midnight showing of The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora could have been just another enjoyable experience for all the patrons in the theater that night, and the lives of hundreds of people, their friends and families would be going on as normal in a world that Michael Eric Dyson and his cohort show absolutely no interest in until there are bloody shirts to wave.

UPDATE: Added link to second instance of Michael Eric Dyson's campaign of ineptitude from today.

13 Of course it is always racist! Only strait white males go around and kill innocent people because they are evil "snow people" because my Queer Chicana professor said they are all sub-human and stuff like my Daddy is evil and an oppressor because he wouldn't pay for my medical marijuana and patchouli oil If someone who is not a strait white male is implicated, then the racist patriarchy probably framed an innocent person of color or a LGBTQ person or a womyn, and the rest of the time it is still strait white males who are at fault because of their anglo-normative and hetero-normative and andro-normative values which are evil and oppressive and stuff.

21 Perhaps you aren't familiar with Dyson, DDR (heh): he was born The Stupid. He is the epitome of what Affirmative Action produces: blooming idiots given credentials and various MSM platforms--an equation that produces mind-boggling arrogance.

Dyson is one of those types of black leftists who causes most black conservatives to want to revert to, shall we say, more traditional methods of dealing with the clowns among our "tribe." Trust me on this.

91 I've been watching Dyson's punditry for a while now, and I hate to say it but in most every interview/debate he always comes out looking pretty good. If you watch and listen you'll understand why, he doesn't get rattled because I believe he either doesn't care or understand what anyone else is saying. He just sticks to his rehearsed script and plows ahead. After all the years of doing this nobody ever calls him on it, kind of amazing.

184 It is my opinion that the Organized Left supports and puts forth black Americans of middling-to-low IQ for three reasons: 1) because they are more pliant and more grateful for that support, 2) because they are more prone to pride of race because they have nothing else to be proud of, and 3) because their prominence feeds the old prejudice that blacks are inferior.

Think about it. How many Americans know who Thomas Sowell--the smartest living American, IMO--is? How many people think that the brilliant Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas is stupid? (Yes, I'm looking at you, SCOAMF/T.)

Dyson is one of the oldest examples. SCOAMF/T is the newest.

213 I have had a lot of problems with Mark Steyn and his anti-Americanism all the time. Yet, I think, it was he who said "whiter than a snow-man dropped in a vat of Whiteout." Whoever said it is a genius. Realm of touching God, which carries with it responsibility, but because I touch realms relating to hysterical men being slapped, I don't count. It is not that mysterious after all. I wish someone were to say to me "PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER MAN" like the Indian fella said to Mel Gibson in Maverick. Or I wish the Don Corleone Marlon Brando would zombie-slap me while saying "YOU CAN BE A MAN." But, although I've yet much to learn and wonders never cease, I am not, as of this moment, planning on either of the ethers expounding.

214 How many people think that the brilliant Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas is stupid?

Thomas was an affirmative-action hire, so that doesn't help.

Thomas's academic and juridical record up to SCOTUS was limited. Bush the Elder didn't care about conservative theory and was a poor judge of character - as Souter proved. So the choice of Thomas was not because Bush thought this guy was a genius and not because Bush thought this guy was a man of honour. All that Bush had going through his head was - find someone to replace Thurgood Marshall who voted Republican - find someone quick!

Thomas turned out to be the most reasoned Justice on the court (Scalia is just the most eloquent). And I'm glad he's on it.

But the way he got on it is probably what has got the non-conservatives miffed.

220 Via Mediaite: Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore will appear Tuesday night on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight to discuss gun control and last week’s Aurora, Colo. shooting that left 12 dead and dozens of other people injured. In a preview clip of the interview, Moore attacked President Barack Obama for his refusal to push for stricter gun control immediately after the massacre. “Well… what if it were them?” Moore asked. “What if were them last Thursday night? Would you stand at the microphone the next day and say, ‘I feel your pain, and’ — this is what he said — ‘the existing gun laws are enough.’ Is that really what you’d say, Mr. President? I don’t think so.” “We have to see these young people who were killed as our children,” Moore continued before going into a rant about how the United Kingdom and Canada have universal healthcare because their mentality is that “we have to take care of each other.” If legislators actually viewed the victims as their own children, Moore said, then “we would have some change in this country and politicians would respond quickly.” “I am not going to come on another damn TV show after the next one of these shootings,” Moore told Morgan, as his voice began to rise. “I haven’t done it for ten years… but I’m sick of this. “I refuse to live in a country like this,” he concluded, “[but] I’m not leaving.”

351 From Weasel Zippers some text from Obama's new ad.He didn't say what he said or something. “Those ads taking my words about small business out of context; they’re flat out wrong. Of course Americans build their own business. Everyday hard-working people sacrifice to meet a payroll, create jobs, and make our economy run. And what I said was that we need to stand behind them as America always has. By investing in education, training, roads and bridges, research and technology. I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message because I believe we’re all in this together.”

357 Ranting of a loon, or a herald's portent?

"In the massive US HEALTHCARE BILL, which your elected representatives voted for without reading, there is a section titled: Subtitle C-11 Sec. 2521 – National Medical Device Registry which states:

“The Secretary shall establish a national medical device registry (in this subsection referred to as the ‘registry’) to facilitate analysis of postmarket safety and outcomes data on each device that—‘‘(A) is or has been used in or on a patient; and ‘‘(B) is a class III device; or ‘‘(ii) a class II device that is implantable.”

The language is deliberately vague, but it provides the structure for making America the first nation in the world that would require every U.S. citizen to receive an implanted radio-frequency (RFID) microchip for the purpose of controlling medical care.

A number of states like Virginia, have passed “stop the mark of the beast legislation” in an effort to stop this kind of legislation."

Anyone want to enter a class action suit against the universities that granted these doctoral degrees on clearly and obviously unqualified applicants?  It's a travesty.  That's our money as taxpayers who have paid for their education.

383 god, you really missed the point. you understand that the point he was making is that racial profiling doesn't stop all crime? and that, in any case, under his preferred legal situation, he'd have big brother's eye turned upon that ANYONE stockpiling such an arsenal, be they brown, black, or purple (actually, he'd probably have it that no-one would ever even be able to stockppile such an arsenal in the first place). so -- and no defence of the vapid leftist ideology meant, let me be clear -- while perhaps being somewhat clumsy in attempting to make a racial point, he's perfectly self-consistent: profiling doesn't work, because it doesn't stop white people, and therefore gun control measures need to be more stringent to stop the white people. naturally, i'm sure you're no less embarrassed at your failure in logic than you'd expect him to have been, right? god, this site runs thin when the boss is busy.
