Joy Reid was fanatical enough on MSNBC.
But since she’s been unchained by her handlers (her former corporate employer and producers), she’s gone totally off the reservation.
[White people] can’t originally invent anything more than they ever were able to invent good music.
We black folk gave y'all country music, hip-hop, R&B, jazz, rock and roll. They couldn't even invent that.
But they have to call a white man "The King" because they couldn't make rock and roll.
So they have to stamp "The King" on a man whose main song was stolen from an overweight black woman.

She did the meme!
‘WE WUZ KANGZ’
“We Wuz Kangz” is the well-documented phenomenon in which revisionist historians of the African-American persuasion simply decree that virtually every major cultural figure from history — Beethoven, Shakespeare, et al. — was actually African!
To name but a few white inventions that Joy overlooked in her diatribe:- Democracy, which Joy Reid pretends to revere
- Capitalism and television (the combination of which afforded Joy Reid her career wherein she culturally appropriated these white inventions to earn herself millions with no sense of gratitude whatsoever)
- Susbtack, where Joy Reid now eeks out a living peddling her pseudo-historical bilge after having been fired from the other white mass media invention
- The automobile, which Joy Reid presumably culturally appropriatively uses
- The airplane, on which Joy Reid likely flies first class everywhere she goes so as to avoid being seated next to filthy flyover peasants
You’ll be shocked to learn that CIA propaganda rag Voice of America blames the relative dearth of black inventions on… drumroll… racism, citing the racist refusal of the U.S. patent system to recognize DJ Grandmaster Flash, who pioneered scratching records to make music.

Via Voice of America (emphasis added):
“For much of our history, when we think about the word ‘invention,’ it’s sort of freighted with these white, Eurocentric notions of what that means,” says Eric Hintz, a historian with the Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. “Often, the traditional definition of ‘invention’ is something like a machine that saves human labor or animal labor, that does some task more efficiently.”
That kept certain innovations by Black people from being recognized by the patent system.
“[The patent system] is built on this model that basically assumes innovation is desirable when it's tied to commercial benefit. But if it is rooted in community survival or the needs of society, that is not worthy of protection, and we see that in the law,” Johnson says. “There are certain types of things that are patentable, and certain things that are not patentable, and that is a distinction that I do think leaves a lot of people out of the ecosystem.”
A New York DJ known as Grandmaster Flash pioneered the use of record turntables as an instrument by using his fingers to manipulate the sounds backward and forward or to slow it down. He had an innovative style of mixing records and blending beats that pioneered the art of deejaying, but he holds no patents.
Justice for Grandmaster Flash!
