This week, on her eponymous Netflix show, Chelsea Handler made a list of different types of racists. As she went down her list, the comedian referred to Stacey Dash as a "black white supremacist," the Daily Wire reports.
“Black white supremacists are black people who think white people are better than them,” Handler explained.
According to Handler, examples include: Ben Carson, David Clarke and, of course, Stacey Dash.
Dash, who has never been one to shy away from a public debate, did not take the comedian's bit as a joke.
"Myself, Ben Carson, Sheriff David Clarke are 'white supremacists' in black skin. Is that it? Because we disagree with the liberal, Left agenda — a wealthy liberal celebrity gets to slander a brilliant and famous neurosurgeon, a respected man of the law, and me? There's an opportunity to invoke white privilege here somewhere, I'm sure. Wait, I forgot, that's a title exclusive to conservatives only," Dash began in the The Independent Journal Review.
Dash then went on the accuse Handler of perpetuating white supremacy herself.
"Liberals love to embrace wealthy celebrities who in turn like to fashion downtrodden victims out of their fan base and remind them that they are under the heels of … well, wealthy white people like them."
Dash capped her clap back by pointing at what she feels is Handler's hypocrisy.
"So … I’m a black white supremacist? It’s a stupid thing to say and it’s not funny. Liberals will laugh at anything at anyone’s expense because they pass it off as “I’m sticking up for you.” See, I get paid millions to sit at this desk, walk across this air-conditioned outside red carpet, fly in these jets and I get to tell you how to save the environment and fight climate change. I get to tell you who to vote for. I get to tell you how to think and what to think about people who challenge this progressive way of thinking that allows me to keep this opulent lifestyle."
Dash also took time to rebut what she felt was a claim on Handler's part that she is not "black enough."
"Maybe read my autobiography and about my childhood of being exposed to drugs, violence and abuse while growing up in the Bronx. Does that make me 'black' enough for you and anyone else who shares this judgmental and simplistic assessment of my beliefs?"
Handler has yet to reply.
