Texas Democrat Goes Full Mask Off: ‘We Are The Majority In This Country Now.’

The following is an edited transcript excerpt from The Michael Knowles Show.

A Democrat from Texas went full mask off with his contempt, and his political party’s contempt, for white people.

Here is Texas State Representative Gene Wu:

Rep. Wu says,

I always tell people the day that the Latino, African American, Asian and other communities realize that they share the same oppressor is the day we start winning. Because we are the majority in this country now. We are. We have the ability to take over this country and to do what is needed for everyone and to make things fair. But the problem is our communities are divided. They’re completely divided.

One of our problems is our communities are completely divided — when we should be totally united against the majority.

White people are still the majority of the country, probably not for long because of birth rates and migration. But today, the Year of Our Lord 2026, white people are still the majority of the country. And this guy comes out and says, “We need to stop being so divided. We need to be united to go get rid of the majority.”

Hey everybody, I just want to bring us all together here to say, “Go kill Whitey.” All right?

And this is only different in degree. It’s not different in kind from the other sort of rhetoric we hear from Democrats and the Left broadly: calls to abolish whiteness, calls to minimize whiteness, to apologize for whiteness. The coalition of the ascendant of the people of color who are perfect, and the white people who can do no good. This is just a more extreme version, which is to say the oppressor is white, the oppressed are non-whites, and the non-whites need to overthrow the whites.

There are some people on the Left, and even on the squishy Right, who have complained in recent years about the supposed rise of white racial consciousness in America. Now, I question the premise. There’s basically no white racial consciousness in America.

In fact, a Pew Research Center study from February 5, 2020, titled “Most black adults say race is central to their identity and feel connected to a broader black community,” found that whites were the least likely to be racially conscious.

Every other racial group has a very high racial consciousness. When asked, is your race extremely important or very important to your identity, 56% of Asians said yes, 59% of Hispanics said yes, and 74% of black people said yes, being black is extremely or very important to how they think about themselves.

Only 15% of White people answered yes. 

White people have no racial consciousness. Every other group has significant racial consciousness, like majority racial consciousness. White people have basically none. But let’s say the premise were true, even though it’s not, that there is a serious uptick in white racial consciousness. What do you expect? Democrat politicians are going on air, saying we need to gang up on whitey. We need to target whitey. We need to overthrow them. We need to punish them. We are demanding a racial consciousness for this group.

If there is an uptick in white racial consciousness, isn’t that just a rational response to what you guys are doing? I want no apologies for this from the Right. No haranguing from the Left. The only response to this “kill whitey” stuff is to say: Well, I guess they consider us a racial group. I get it. I guess we have to proceed accordingly — that is, in accordance with justice and the Constitution and all the rest of our founding documents.
