WATCH: Turning Point USA Contributor Says It’s Racist To Withhold N-Slur From Joe Rogan

What started as a discussion of the damage done by using a massive platform to spread anti-vaccine propaganda has turned into a full-fledged right-wing battle to protect and defend the right of Joe Rogan to use racial slurs. To that end, one Turning Point USA contributor is now declaring that it’s racist to form a judgment of a person based on their use of racial slurs.

This is Drew Hernandez. If you’re not familiar with him, Vice reported on his appearance in the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, where he presented video he’d filmed at the protest to help support the defense’s narrative that one of the men Rittenhouse shot was acting erratically. He’s a livestreamer and a TPUSA contributor.

He’s also upset, it seems, that “a certain race” “gets exclusive rights” to the n-slur.

“Who cares at this point if Joe Rogan used the n-word? Who gets exclusive rights to a certain word? If you are a certain color, if you are a race, and you literally declare that I have exclusive rights to a certain word because of my racial superiority, you’re a racist.”

Notably, this defense of the n-slur comes only days after others at TurningPointUSA boasted of a Politifact analysis declaring false the claim that TPUSA is a white nationalist organization.

Following that up with a defense of racial slurs, and in particular, an insistence that it’s not fair for “a certain race” to get upset at the use of the word, is probably not the best look.
