America Gets The Gold In Hypocrisy

     Yep, there was a sex ring. The multimillionaire at the heart of it traveled with a harem of women and used them for his own sexual needs. But he regularly pimped them out to high-profile men as well. He assigned each woman a number so that the ‘John,’ after viewing what was being offered, would just have to tell him which number he wanted. When the pimp had used up a particular woman, he would discard her and replace her with a new one. It really was as vile as it sounds...and it’s absolutely true. The guy bragged about it...constantly!
    Oh, I get it. You thought I was talking about Jeffrey Epstein? Please...after everything that has been written and continues to be written about that piece of shit human being, I have no desire to add anything. I am talking about the man who is currently America’s latest “Uncle Pitchman!” The Dude! Multiple Grammy Award winner. And to top it all off, he has just finished being celebrated for his role as honorary coach of Team USA at the Winter Olympics! I’m talking Snoop, baby! Uncle Snoop Dogg...America’s most beloved thug.
    “I put an organization together,” Snoop told Rolling Stone in 2013. “I did a Playboy tour, and I had a bus follow me with ten bitches on it. I could fire a bitch, f**k a bitch, get a new ho: it was my program. City to city, t**ty to t**ty, hotel room to hotel room, athlete to athlete, entertainer to entertainer... A lot of athletes bought p**sy from me.” Wow! At least he doesn't sound to conscience-stricken about it.
    An then there’s this. Snoop (can I call him Snoop?) went on his pimp tour in 2003, when he had already been a rich and wildly successful recording artist for a decade. Which is perhaps why he was more generous than most pimps. “I’d act like I’d take the money from the bitch,” he said, “but I’d let her have it.”
    What a guy. Good for you, Snoop!
    I have previously talked about Snoop in the context of anti-semitism. Namely, about how the establishment supported a career-long defender of Louis Farrakhan and elevated him to the heights of cultural acceptability.
    Why am I writing this piece now? Because while Americans have worked themselves into a moral fit and launched a witch hunt for anyone whose name comes within a “six-degrees-of-separation” to the Epstein files, they are also delighted to their core that, as one headline put it, “Coach Snoop is having a blast at the Olympics.” This is about moral hypocrisy. 
    Unlike Snoop, Jeffrey Epstein--at least from what the files have revealed --didn't run a sex ring. Again, he was a piece of shit human being who trafficked in women and underage females to satisfy his own, and others, perversions. And the country remains out for blood, as if we must run down everyone who ever walked on the same side of the street as this degenerate and exact punishment in order to avenge the crimes of the global elite and cleanse the system. 
    Look, a lot of powerful people maintained relationships with a known child sex predator. That’s shocking, shameful, and frighteningly gross. And it should inform your opinion of such figures. But if you want to get to the heart of how people can dismiss or ignore the vile transgressions of the rich and famous, take a look at the Americans of all walks of life who embraced our ex-pimp cultural ambassador in Milano-Cortina. And if you’re cheering Snoop while gunning for Epstein’s correspondents, try not to feel too good about yourself, as you’re getting down with Snoop, and your bad self.
