Even far-left newspapers are starting to feel the heat over leftists openly celebrating the assassination <\/a> of Charlie Kirk.<\/p>\n

Radical Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah, who has stirred up racial hatred<\/a> for years while writing for the liberal paper, revealed she was fired after posting a series of messages on the hateful, far-left social media website BlueSky.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast week, the Washington Post fired me,\u201d Attiah wrote <\/a>in her Substack, \u201cThe Golden Hour by Karen Attiah.\u201d \u201cThe reason? Speaking out against political violence, racial double standards, and America\u2019s apathy toward guns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe Post accused my measured Bluesky posts of being \u201cunacceptable,\u201d \u201cgross misconduct\u201d and of endangering the physical safety of colleagues \u2014 charges without evidence, which I reject completely as false,\u201d she whined.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey rushed to fire me without even a conversation. This was not only a hasty overreach, but a violation of the very standards of journalistic fairness and rigor the Post claims to uphold.\u201d<\/p>\n

Indeed, Attiah\u2019s BlueSky posts reveal a harsh anti-gun message and do not promote violence. But what she fails to mention is that she bashes white men in at least three of them, consistent with her nature.<\/p>\n

In one, she writes, \u201cPart of what keeps America so violent is the insistence that people perform care, empty goodness, and absolution for white men who espouse hatred and violence.\u201d What about other races that commit far more crimes than whites?<\/p>\n

\u201cRefusing to tear my clothes and smear ashes on my face in performative mourning for a white man that espoused violence is\u2026. not the same as violence,\u201d she said in another post.<\/p>\n

Attiah even mocks Christians while continuing her anti-white rant.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause America, especially white America is not going to do what it needs to do to get rid of the guns in their country, it will be thoughts and prayers, \u201cviolence has no place\u201d out of a performance of goodness, not out of the resolve to convince their communities to disarm,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

Considering this material, it\u2019s little wonder why Attiah\u2019s bosses felt they had no choice but to can her. The only mistake they made was not doing it years ago.<\/p>\n
