Joy Reid Thinks Masculinity is "White-Adjacent"
One of the media’s general subthemes of the 2024 Republican National Convention is its revulsion at the idea of masculinity. Mention it and a mental gag reflex is triggered within pampered Acela types, which makes them spout all sorts of nonsense.
Case in point, this incoherent word salad from MSNBC’s resident race merchant Joy Reid. Watch as she babbles about masculinity in her own way, which means a nonsensical riff ending in a gross racial smear, per Reid’s custom:

JOY REID: It is interesting because we were talking about this during the break. I mean, this is the Javier Milei election, right? And in Argentina, that's how that went, which is that you had this coalition of- you know, and not to be cruel, but it was described as sort of an incel election. It was the young, angry men of Argentina who, like, they wanted a macho candidate and it- went along with policies like banning abortion, banning birth control, and the idea of no fault div- and it all kind of goes together that you have seen this kind of election before. You see the same thing in Hungary. Like, the Orbanism of the party- it’s rooted in returning white Christian men, but also white men- white-adjacent men. You know- black men, brown men who are like white-adjacent, in terms of trying to also be in that dominant position in society, and then you have women who are willing to go along with that. There are a certain number of women who are also willing- the tradwife sort of thing.
The thing about these riffs, like Alex Wagner’s about JD Vance wanting to be buried in his family plot, is that they show what little these people know outside of their own Acela bubble. The same is true about Reid, plus the race-mongering.
Reid just goes off about a bunch of different things in the hope that the viewer tie two or three of them together, never mind that none of what she is saying here makes any sense.
The most recent presidential election in Argentina was NOT about incels, or a “macho candidate”, but about inflation triggered by excessive government intervention in the marketplace, for example.
And then Joy Reid regurgitates the old “adjacency to whiteness “ trope, by speaking of “white-adjacent men”, which implies race betrayal, We can now add masculinity to the list of things that signify adjacency to whiteness, such as being on time and learning to speak English. Reid ends with a weird mention of traditional wives.
These are the people who think they’re smarter than you.
