Vintage Hate Hoax: Andrew Cuomo
This Vintage Hate Hoax originally appeared on Moonbattery June 19, 2020:
One way to create a hate hoax is to seize upon something innocuous, portray it as evidence of America’s racist iniquity, overreact hysterically, and publicize it to the best of your ability. If you are the Governor of New York, that ability is substantial. Please welcome Andrew Cuomo to the Hate Hoax List.
Someone hit the social justice jackpot by photographing a noose in Marcus Garvey Park in Harlem, which is named after a “Black icon”:
Cuomo promised the New York State Police Hate Crimes Task Force would investigate the incident.
“I am disgusted by the recent discovery of a noose — the epitome of hatred and an evil icon of our nation’s racist past — in Harlem’s Marcus Garvey Park,” the statement read. “New York is no place for hate, and the progress we’ve made as a society will not be undone by the work of a few cowards.”
The police have nothing better to do, since they are generally told to stand down as Black Lives Matter riots tear the country apart.
It didn’t take long for the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force to get to the bottom of the farce:
The NYPD Hate Crime Task Force investigated this incident thoroughly. According to the park director, it was left over from a construction scaffold that was removed in the fall. The rope was used to hoist construction materials. @NYPDDetectives @NYPDShea https://t.co/kWCBCbI1qd

Cuomo owes his country an apology for participating in the malign campaign to portray it as nasty to black people. But if he didn’t apologize after proclaiming that America was “never that great,” he never will. Besides, it is not his country anyway. Despite having been born here into the lap of luxury as the son of previous New York Governor Mario Cuomo, he identifies as an illegal alien. No wonder other Democrats love the guy.
