Woke Gone Wild: Biden and Kerry's Vacation Hotspot Turns 4th of July Into Self Flagellation Ritual

Spot poll: Who’s more cringe, former mumbling President Joe Biden or woke climate warrior, windsurfer, and one-time Obama Secretary of State John Kerry? I give the slightest of edges to John because of his cadaver-like monotone speeches at summits around the world about how we’re all going to die, like tomorrow. Watching him is about as pleasant as inhaling paprika into your nose.

They both have loved to vacation on the elitist island of Nantucket over the years, which is only a little over an hour's ferry ride from that other leftist enclave, Barack Obama's Martha’s Vineyard. (Kerry sold his Nantucket home in 2018 for $17.5 million to downsize into a little $12 million property on the 'Yard. Maybe he's not so worried about rising seas after all?) 

Full disclosure: I’ve been to Nantucket, and it’s quite pleasant. But for the woke crowd, it’s just too damn white:

A Nantucket church on the exclusive Massachusetts island long favored by former President Joe Biden canceled its annual Fourth of July reading of America’s founding documents, citing an effort to understand "our own whiteness" and drawing sharp criticism from conservatives.

"Our cancelling the 4th of July celebration this year reflects ... an on-going process within the congregation to better understand our own whiteness," wrote Nantucket Unitarian Universalists (NUU) and the Rev. Erin Splaine of the Second Congregational Meeting House Society in a letter published by the Nantucket Current on Thursday.

The historic Nantucket Unitarian Meeting House has hosted a public reading of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights in downtown Nantucket each Fourth of July holiday for the past 25 years.

Whatever the hell that means. Call me crazy, but it sure sounds racist.

Wtf. Erin Splaine, the "Reverend" of the woke Unitarian Universalist Church in Nantucket, just canceled July 4th celebrations because White people are "privileged" and honoring American history "perpetuates the harm, injustice, and anti-democratic process."

She then forbids anyone from contacting her on social media about her decision.

I wrote recently about the peak “woke” moments we’ve seen in this country over the past few years, and how silly and destructive they were, but if I had to write that article again, I’d be sure to include this monumental BS coming out of the church. This is absolute leftist self-hate slop:

“We came to this decision in large measure because of the recent gutting of the 1965 Voting Rights Act by the Supreme Court,” Rev. Erin Splaine and the group’s board of trustees wrote in a letter to the Nantucket Current news outlet on Thursday. ” A celebration without context and the centering of the fullness of our American Story only perpetuates the harm, injustice, and anti-democratic process.”

“Our cancelling the 4th of July celebration this year reflects the deep concern we are feeling since the Supreme Court decision,” the letter continues, “as well as an on-going process within the congregation to better understand our own whiteness and how we can be part of changing an inherently unfair system which has been in place for 250 years.”

Luckily, with the return of Donald Trump to the Oval Office, we’re seeing less of this ridiculousness, racism, and self‑sabotage dressed as morality. That doesn’t mean the woke scourge has gone away entirely, though, and we’re still going to call it out wherever we see it. As we approach our nation’s 250^th birthday, this is toxic bile, and this Nantucket church can go take a long walk off a short pier.

I have yet to see a reaction from Biden or Kerry, and I won’t hold my breath.
