What do you expect from these parasites on our society?

The New York Times has defended a new member of its editorial board who wrote inflammatory tweets about White people. The newspaper's announcement that it was hiring Sarah Jeong met an outpouring of online criticism after her old posts were unearthed.

Ms Jeong wrote in one tweet from July 2014: "Oh man it's kind of sick how much joy I get out of being cruel to old white men." One online critic posted a selection of Ms Jeong's other tweets, which contain obscenities. "Are white people genetically predisposed to burn faster in the sun, thus logically being only fit to live underground like groveling goblins," she said in December 2014.
