The Bill Cosby dilemma

 

 

Thursday, July 1, 2021

 

Bill Cosby’s conviction has been overturned by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, creating a serious dilemma for the radical left – which should be celebrating the release of a black man from prison, but can’t stand the idea that he might have gotten away with his crimes against women.

The radical left is willing to overlook a whole pantheon of violent crimes in building the myth of a racist America, but Cosby like OJ before him forces the left to choose between which agenda they are promoting.

In truth the radical left appears not to like black men as much as their propaganda claims – as demonstrated in a number of black women writers such as Alice Walker and her classic, “The Color Purple.”

So, apparently throwing Cosby under the bus in order to support a women’s agenda becomes tolerable, even though Cosby is black, and is well-known for standing up for black rights in the past.

The radical left had the same issue with OJ, which is why when a court exonerated him the first time, they forced another trial to make sure he was convicted – if not of murder, then something that would make living intolerable.

The left did the same thing to Cosby when their first attempt to convict him resulted in a mistrial.

Now, the club of women that claim Cosby raped them are howling about the fact that his rights were violated – something many conservatives have complained about when liberal lawyers managed to get violent criminals freed on legal technicalities.

The irony of the Cosby release this week comes at a time when the current vice president of the United States sat at the bed side of a known rapist and told him how proud she was of him, partly because she was promoting an anti-Police agenda.

It would be impossible for her to say as much to Cosby since there is nothing politically to gain in supporting a man who has been an icon for black rights when it would pit her against her other political base, liberal women.

The Cosby case – as well as the OJ trial that preceded it by three decades – were largely little more than political lynching – when the legal system did not come up with the results many on the left wanted.

This is not to say that what Cosby or OJ did was right. But you can’t defend murders and rapists on one hand as part of social justice, and then violate the very precepts of your own argument when the system doesn’t give you the result you want.

This also poses problems for media, whose whole intent is to create the illusion of a racist America.

It would have been easier for media outlets if Cosby had been shot by a cop, thus turning him into a victim and a hero, and putting up statues in his memory.

Since media sees the world in black and white – or perhaps – black vs white – Cosby becomes an issue beyond the scope of its agenda, forcing media outlets to choose which is more important, a black man wronged by an unfair verdict, or the outage of the liberal community at the fact that Cosby is being let out of prison and can never be charged with that particular crime again.

The trial was always political, of course, since the alleged victim waited until just 12 days prior to the statute of limitations to file it, and then was represented by one of the show horses lawyers of the feminist movement.

This was a show trial, a political sham hidden behind the veil of seeking justice, and ultimately, it shows just how fabricated many of the liberal issues are.

You can bet there will be more legal action in the future – although the sting of Cosby’s release will make whatever happens next even more deplorable.
