That seems to be the white M.O. when dealing with black critics:
Don't change anything - invite 'em in on the "action".
(That's how I got on Instapundit for a little while.)
Obviously, if that doesn't work, freeze 'em out.
Whites can, look at me - no Instapundit, no Althouse, no EBL, No Trooper, no nothin' - the conservative white folks got they minds made up.
The point, as in the racist past, is not to change.
Not to treat black criticism as valid.
Evidence be damned - our lost opportunities are in our minds, and calling the people this nation betrayed delusional isn't racist, because WHITE.
But American blacks live with American racism:
We know American whites think, as long as enough distance can be made - between the slave ships cutting the water and those of us in their wake - no matter what they say, or how they act, it'll eventually all smooth over, into a placid lake.
There's only one problem:
Freedom means everybody can now see and say who was piloting the fucking boat - and determine for ourselves what it really means - and can do so without your racist input.
See, trying to shut me up is one thing, but trying to deny 400 years of slavery a full hearing?
You must think we're stupid,…
You have some serious anger issues or something.

...and by the way: you seem to have a pretty decent life, fairly enjoyable -- you've got enough disposable leisure time and money to engage in things that interest you irregardless of whether or not it makes you some money...so...why are you so angry?
ReplyDeleteYour life doesn't sound all that awful, so where's the reason to bitch so much?

ST is not the credit to his race he thinks he is.
ReplyDeleteI really don't think anybody should have to be "a credit to their race".
ReplyDeleteFor one thing: I find the notion of pure races of people a bit bogus.
For another: I really don't think there should be some grand, racial checklist for people, even if their was -- I mean, are the racial police going to come and arrest you if you don't make the grade in the racial checklist? Is this checklist different for different "pure races", and if so, why? Do you get checked to make sure you're really of a certain race before you get put on the checklist?
So bogus + bogus = I prefer not to.
That being said, it must take a lot of energy to be so kerfluffled like an old, wet hen all the time -- and confusing looking in from the outside as to why one would wish to be so.
