Blacks Suffer While Whites Make Up Their Minds On It

A white "prince" - who will never have to work - and a black American citizen who (like every generation of her family) will, pretending they're similar (and he's charming) merely because he's grasped the meaning and flavor behind one of our cultural hand gestures

"We literally have two criminal justice systems in America - one for whites and one for blacks."

This blog started in a strange place: a black man loses his wife, career, and possibly his mind, to the influence of cultism in American society.

White women hate people taking advantage of others - except when it's them

Feminism is a part of that, one I flashed upon when reading P.J. O’Rourke’s recent piece on Lena Dunham and her TV show, Girls:

“Ms. Dunham is 28. I was under the impression that ‘girls’ is a demeaning term for adult women. The title must have something to do with this hipster ‘Irony’ thing, which I confess I don’t understand. The root of the word irony is in the Greekeironeia, ‘liar.’”

Whites are under the wrong-headed impression it's blacks who are making "progress"

Cultism, as I first knew it, was a so-called “spiritual” phenomena of the white Left. Growing up black in South Central, Los Angeles, voting Democrat was all I’d ever known. I started asking why; especially why Democrats were involved in the destruction that undergirds their ideals.

”One group of people in this country can expect the institutions of government to bend in their favor, no matter that they are supposedly regulated by impartial law. In the other, children, fathers, mothers, uncles, grandfathers, whole families, and many generations are swept up like rubbish by the hard, unforgiving hand of the law.

...Some people rationalize that it was unfortunate, but not altogether disturbing, that Michael Brown was put to death without due process because, after all, he allegedly took some cigarillos from a corner store. But who went to jail for the mortgage fraud that robbed his community and other black communities around the country of 50 percent of their wealth?"

"Imagine if one day you woke up and the sky was on fire, and the stars were out in the daytime,..."

Kids, like puppies and blacks, are poor and defenseless - you can kill them

I asked my questions as a man. I asked as an atheist. I asked as an American. This brought me a Right-Wing following online.

“Some residents think Knowles simply does not fully understand the problems Ferguson faces. One of them, Charles Henson, points to the mayor’s August comment that there was no racial divide in the city of Ferguson. (Knowles later walked back that statement.) ‘I’m just not sure he totally gets it all and understands exactly what needs to change,’ Henson says. ‘A lot of people are meeting . . . but the administration has to change as well — their position, ideologies, training, that kind of stuff.’”

Not much difference between Cheney's One Percent Doctrine and black's 5 Percent Cult

Trayvon Martin’s death brought laughter on the Right, drawing a bright red line around them, I will not cross. They, too, are liars - and also of the kind to destroy me, while shooting at shadows. Not only that, but their religious and political fanaticism easily surpassed the more sex-and-death perversions of the Left’s NewAge cultism, in the politics and person of Mitt Romney, leaving no doubt that, once again, I would be PTSD-repelled by the people around me.

"Mama didn't raise no victim"

The Khmer Rouge could've written this "uplifting" American's message

These folks, too, are whiter-than-white. My options, for living under white supremacy, were shrinking. And something was going on.

Their rise was inexplicable,...until someone admitted they sucked

“Both political scientists, Nyhan and Reifler have spent the past several years studying what they call the ‘backfire effect,’ or the idea that when presented with information that contradicts their closely-held beliefs, people will become more convinced, not less, that they’re in the right. In one study, when staunch conservatives read information refuting the idea that the U.S. found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, they tended to believe more firmly than before that it was true; the researchers saw similar effects in studies correcting the notion that President Obama is Muslim and the claim that ‘death panels’ were a part of healthcare reform.

From there, vaccination seemed like a logical next step in their research, Nyhan said: ‘Vaccines aren’t a partisan or ideological issue, but they’re controversial. They bring up issues of identity and tribalism that feel a lot like politics,’ he explained. ‘I have kids, and talking about vaccines on the playground is like bringing up religion,…’”

Over the years, this “backfire effect” has reduced the blog to no longer researching much of anything, but simply trying to navigate this unstable terrain of viciously backwards thinking in the modern world, for self-preservation - and we're losing. I’m cool with that: I don’t support what I don’t like anymore than anyone else will. But I still need facts.

With even one parent, nearby, a black *might* have had a chance

I’ve never had credentials for protection - just my fists. But defending myself is a crime, just as Richard Williams was “crazy” in white folks’ estimation. He defeated them all with his brand of crazy.

"You can't handle the truth" was the classic backfire effect

I've always found it rather amazing to hear respectable conservatives pining for the days of William F. Buckley, whom they see as the epitome of the sober conservative intellectual. This is hard for me to take. This is the same Buckley who backed segregation, backed Apartheid, and greeted the Civil Rights Movement by saying, "The great majority of the Negroes of the South who do not vote do not care to vote and would not know for what to vote if they could."

Here is the intellectual father of modern conservatism, standing athwart history. Black history.

The problem extends back to the Civil War, where conservatives have long enjoyed a cozy alliance with people who insist the Civil War wasn't about slavery, that it was prosecuted by a tyrannical Lincoln, and that black people fought for the Confederacy in untold numbers. It's telling that the Republican Party's idea of an alternative candidate was Ron Paul—the ultimate Lost Causer, who denounces Lincoln as a man who went to war to "get rid of the intent of the republic."

Among historians of the Civil War, the sort of views expressed on the right have zero currency. If you really believe, as Paul does, that the Civil War wasn't about slavery, you should expect about as much respect among the experts of the war as global warming denialists receive from those who study climate change.”

Realizing you're wrong - and admitting it - are two totally different things

Nobody, worth anything, pays them any mind.

Many men, in particular, have decided that low-wage work will not improve their lives, in part because deep changes in American society have made it easier for them to live without working. These changes include the availability of federal disability benefits; the decline of marriage, which means fewer men provide for children; and the rise of the Internet, which has reduced the isolation of unemployment.

Nobody else has to care, if you don't care about anybody else

Let them figure out where they went wrong. If they can figure at all.

“‘In 2012 the state supreme court struck down any law banning loud music,’ he says. ‘I knew that because it was a case I had actually studied in law school.’

Garzon grew angry, though, when Baldelomar told him that fact. He called over two other cops,…”

Burning civilization down only hurts those who deny it to others

I exist in a world, today, that - literally - has no use for facts. And that draws trouble closer for presenting them.

Zombie-love is a prelude to life without thought

”If a White House can get away with ordering torture and bragging about it, it can get away with anything.”

A life without love

Being in America makes no difference. All I’ve “learned” is whites - no matter what their political or religious affiliation - are not to be trusted.

A life without life

"John Yoo: Rectal Feeding, Sleep Deprivation Is Torture"

9-11 wasn’t “the end of irony”. The lying continues. It’s practitioners are the white, the rich, and the famous.

White Women Are Entitled (To Be Mentally Oppressed)

“I don’t fucking care if you like it.”

Above are Amy Poehler’s words, said to Jimmy Fallon, that made her a hero to Tina Fey and Slate’s Amanda Hess - words that definitely wouldn’t have endeared her to whites, under any circumstances, as a black person - and probably would’ve resulted in the loss of her job.

Fey actually brags about those words in her revealingly-titled book, “Bossypants,“ (For comparison, Indian American Mindy Kaling’s book is called, “Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?”) but we’re still supposed to buy Ann Althouse’s blonde bullshit about sexism being as big of a hinderance to white women’s lives as race is to blacks. Here are some of Poehler’s chapter titles:

“Say Whatever You Want”; “Do Whatever You Like”; “Be Whoever You Are.”

I guess, along with everything else they assume about the races they avoid, blonde’s think we still can’t understand that we can’t do any of those things,...without white's interference.

No, you see, what whites understand is, it’s still their place to educate everyone else - as they used to bring us Jesus - for our own good, of course. Their ultimate advice, repeated endlessly to me online and off, is to do as white’s do (“C’MON, WHO HASN’T CHEATED?”) as though challenging white people is in Dale Carnegie’s “How To Win Friends And Influence People.” Check out this quote:

”Women are still underrepresented as writers, directors, and stars of comedy, but the few women who have clawed to prominence on TV can find a comfortable perch in the publishing world.”

Hell, considering how whites have maneuvered themselves since the Grammy’s - putting whites in even Rap’s top spots - blacks can’t be said to have a “comfortable perch” anywhere whites exist. And (here’s the kicker) their dislike increases as long as we mention it. “I don’t fucking care if you like it,” indeed.

“This sounds okay, but not as good as Tina Fey’s book. Why isn’t this more like Tina Fey’s book?”

- Mindy Kaling

“I cannot change the fact that I am an American White Woman” Poehler writes, while Fey filled her book with “practical tips on how to make it in a male-dominated workplace.” Is there a writer of color that features such sentiments today? Who could? Women outnumber men, but somehow, the white ones seem to forget I’m-the-minority-who-pushes-people-around-and-you-can-too is just begging for that 6 to 1 white blowback, while white women can, and do, get applause (mostly from other white women) for even thinking it. And now they even demand blacks join in.

“When did you fall in love with Amy Poehler?” Slate’s Amanda Hess asks, as though it’s a given everyone has done so. As though Poehler, or Tina Fey, have done anything as endearing, striking, or influential, as Eddie Murphy’s work on SNL. Even when including 30 Rock, they haven’t. They’re just there - which is an accomplishment - but hardly worthy of the assumption of universal admiration or acclaim.

Like Althouse bragging that the repulsive Rush Limbaugh (of all people) mentioned her attacks on Obama, these white women stand for little besides their own celebrity, causing Hess to say “Poehler’s naming of her nanny is framed as a brave reveal” (revealed: a white woman has a nanny!) while “other subjects are just deflected.” Of course they are, because white women can play it safe. What’s on the line for them? Falling back to #2 in the white world? Heavens to Betsy. Hess also adds “lowered stature frees” white women “for more straight talk.”

Well, there’s no one lower than blacks in America, unless you include “a virginal college-aged Fey scrambling up a Virginia mountain at night in a desperate bid to get laid by a terrible guy.”

Somehow, after all the black books I’ve read - compared to just living in the obliviousness of white folks - that’s rarely been blacks, or even black women’s, problem. As that quote reveals, it’s white’s awful life choices that are. Hess asks a great question at the end of her piece:

“When Lena Dunham inked a deal for her own comedy/memoir/advice book, at age 26, she was criticized for her hubris: Why would such a young woman think she had anything meaningful to say?”

I’ll let you guess what the answer is from where blacks sit,…

Just Whose Side Are You On? ("Lena Dunham's Race Problem" Is A Sign Of Possible Dark Times To Come)

And you thought it was just Ann Althouse in the dock

As usual, I'm ahead of a trend, this one being calling out American white women for their arrogant narcissism in the face of black's oppression. Following my lead is Rebecca Carroll, a black woman who thinks the "Girls" girl ain't pulling her substantial (and usually seen naked) weight:

"It is troubling enough that Dunham demonstrates no ready indication that she is any more mature, less self-involved and dissociated,...to wonder the impact on her black peers of being excluded from the urban landscape of Brooklyn. But ignoring the fact that Dunham's fame is as much about her talent as it is about her whiteness is not only a disservice to her audience, it is an insult to black women artists."

Do these two look like they need a white woman's "help"?

Some feminism these white women have. "An insult to black women artists." And (like Ann's assumption that SHE will determine how black men and women should interact towards one another, according to white feminist dictates, currently known for breaking up more couples than bonding them) they're an insult to blacks altogether.

"Wait - I'm not the center of the world - or even American life?"

There's something absolutely repulsive to the formally entitled-for-centuries white woman about hearing from blacks that (because she and her shallow outlook are part of America's race problem) her new role is to either help fix it or shut-the-fuck-up. Repulsive because, except at the end of slavery, she's never truly faced a challenge like this before. 

Blacks today have little reason to find her attractive, or iconic of anything, beyond betrayal. She and her way of "thinking" are no one's ideal. Not even the white man's, because her feminist stance chased all but the most passive away, nursing a premature ejaculation problem so common the so-called "cures" are now advertised on TV, along with the other various (collective) anxiety medicines shared by white men and women alike, especially Mormons. Fuck 'em all. And get a clue:

Where was the white woman's courage when white men were taking black wealth - on her behalf?

No one owes white people allegiance to anything. They owe us a society premised on the ideals they themselves said were worthy. If they can't, we have no use for them, and will show them so - by any means at hand:

Angela Davis has had little time for white women's bullshit

Considering America's changing demographics, and the fact blacks are again on the march, white women - with an aversion to violence not shared by blacks, who have been forced to endure it at their hands, and that of their "Brown Sugar" cheating husbands - would do well to ensure it's not a boot stamping on her (finally) human face forever,...

The White Feminists Are Just As Bad As Slave Owners

"It's funny, isn't it? Being white and oblivious to the harm we cause? It's funny!"

That ugly fat fuck millionaire who made "Girls" is following in Amanda Palmer's famously fucked footsteps by asking regular people to perform for free on her stupid book tour. 

The willingness of whites to - still - steal other's labor is legendary.

If you wanted an explanation of the difference, between white and black feminists, I'd say we've found it,...

 

Dunham: "If You're Not Into Me, That's Your Problem."

Really?

The only way that can be true is because - when the reporter spoke to Dunham - he wasn't A) drunk, B) in a bar, and C) looking at the last "Girl" standing.

And then there's the producer's comments, that bug-eyed alien-looking feminist loser, Ugly Apatow. 

"Do you have a girlfriend? Does she like you? This guy looks in the mirror and feels bad about what he sees."

Talk about cultish thinking - along with enough personal insecurity to power the planet.

It's scary, how famous and powerful NewAgers actually get away with bullying others - over nothing - this way,…
