Critics accused the New York Times of hypocrisy this week after the paper<\/a> ran an article fixating on the supposed racist tones of Jason Aldean\u2019s song “Try That in Small Town,” and another article explaining that claims that a South African chant has an alleged anti-white message were being blown out of proportion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Annoyed X (formally Twitter) users stated that on one hand, the liberal paper was trying to gin up controversy to smear a conservative-themed country song, while on the other hand absolving a racist screed sung by a South African political leader at a rally.<\/p>\n

Even X owner Elon Musk trashed the people running the Times as “contemptible hypocrites” for running the two seemingly irreconcilable pieces.<\/p>\n

RANDY TRAVIS STUNS CROWD WITH \u2018AMAZING GRACE\u2019 RENDITION AT HALL OF FAME INDUCTION<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The New York Times published both articles on Wednesday. In the piece covering country star Aldean\u2019s Billboard chart-topping song<\/a> \u2013 an anthem declaring that middle Americans will defend their communities from crime, violence and rioting \u2013 the outlet noted that “critics” have described it “as a call to racist vigilantism.”<\/p>\n

Despite the song and its music video making no references to race, and the Times not providing any evidence to back up the claims of the “critics” it referenced, the outlet again characterized the work as one of racial controversy, stating that “Aldean has denied that \u2018Try That\u2019 is \u2018a pro-lynching song,\u2019 or that race plays any part in the song\u2019s lyrics.”<\/p>\n

Though the second piece about South African political leader Julius Malema\u2019s political rally chant “Kill the Boer!<\/a>” from several days ago, downplayed concerns that Malema was calling for racial animosity, even though in the article the author admitted “Kill the Boer!” refers to killing white South African Farmers.<\/p>\n

The piece, written by author John Eligon who attended the rally in Johannesburg, South Africa and witnessed the chant, described the scene, stating, “Thousands of supporters joined in, and when he reached the climax, they pointed their fingers in the air like guns. \u2018Kill the Boer!\u2019 Julius Malema chanted, referring to white farmers. The crowd in a stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday roared back in approval.”<\/p>\n

Despite detailing the chant in this way, Eligon framed the controversy of the chant as being ginned up by outraged “right-wing commentators.” In the subheader, the author wrote, “Right-wing commenters claim that an old anti-apartheid chant is a call to anti-white violence, but historians and the left-wing politician who embraces it say it should not be taken literally.”<\/p>\n

Later in the piece, he added, “Despite the words, the song should not be taken as a literal call to violence, according to Mr. Malema and veterans and historians of the anti-apartheid struggle.”<\/p>\n

JASON ALDEAN THANKS FANS FOR SUPPORT AFTER \u2018SMALL TOWN\u2019 BACKLASH: \u2018THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN\u2019<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Conservatives slammed the paper for inserting racist controversy into a song that had none, and absolving the racism front and center in the chant.<\/p>\n

Journalist Ian Miles Cheong noted the double standard, tweeting, “So let’s get this straight: Jason Aldean’s \u2018Try that in a Small Town\u2019 is a racist anthem, but the conservative response to the anti-white anthem \u2018Kill the Boer\u2019 misses the context and it blown out of proportion. Typical for The New York Times.”<\/p>\n

Popular conservative account “End Wokeness” captured the double standard, tweeting, “\u2019White lives matter\u2019 – hate speech. \u2018It\u2019s okay to be white\u2019 – hate speech. \u2018Try that in a small town\u2019 – hate speech. \u2018Kill the white farmers\u2019 – It\u2019s just a chant.”<\/p>\n

Musk commented on End Wokeness\u2019 post, providing his assessment of what\u2019s happening in South Africa. He wrote, “They are actually killing white farmers every day. It\u2019s not just a threat.”<\/p>\n

Conservative influencer @HarmfulOpinion commented on the Times\u2019 “Kill The Boer” article, stating, “This is fine, but Jason Aldean\u2019s \u2018Try that in a small town\u2019 in an anthem for white supremacy?”<\/p>\n
