What The Left Got About Blacks & The Right Never Will



"White" may be a social construct, but black is the real thing:

"By trying to turn them into liberated individuals, Esalen was removing the one thing that gave them power and confidence, in their struggle against racism - their collective identity as blacks."

In other words, until whites stop the racism, it ain't going to work,...

I Think We'll All Be Cutting Out At About The Same Time

“It is a gross mistake to suppose that self-esteem is always a good quality, the more of it the better.”

 That quote's from a child-killing story I needed to brush up on, as I'd let it slip by with just a glance before, and felt a bit guilty. 


God, I'm glad I'm not a hippie. I've just had to live with them, in the destruction of their wake. That's been enough. 


I've learned how to laugh about it. 6 kids dead so a fool could "feel good about himself"? It's getting better all the time!


So, that said, can we get to the nude photo spread of Miley Cyrus already? Isn't that where this is all leading? Isn't the gradual push, push, push, just extended foreplay for television to graduate into the equivalent of a 24 hour porn booth? You see any other "artistic barriers" being broken? Even attempted to be broken? Well let's get on with it then. You're "liberated," baby - Madonna said so - now show me your tits.


There goes my gag reflex. Unfortunately, it's usually triggered by things other people insist on me watching, like the selling of Barack Obama. 


We HAD to have him, too, remember? He was the fulfillment of,...something. The editor of Newsweek said he was a god. People shot guns in my neighborhood when he got elected. Meanwhile, I was hunkered over the toilet, because I share a planet with anyone so stupid. That's how I've spent a lot of my life. Shoot, who am I kidding - it's become real life:


One long session, staring at porcelain, giving it up,...

Fuck You (Wait - They'd Probably Want That Anyway,...)


Yesterday I was listening to Fresh Air's discussion with comedian Amy Schumer, and she and Terry Gross got into this thing women do - which is putting themselves down when they receive a compliment. Once Shumer admitted she's never seen a man do that, I wondered: 


 Do crazy women ever glean they're crazy? 


I guess you have to be a man to understand where that question is coming from but, for instance, I don't react to movies based on my hormones, and no woman has ever been in the position of having to comfort me - against her will - as I mentally come apart over such a thing. 


I'm not insecure, don't hate my body, nor do I feel a need to show it off for validation. 


I wouldn't kill a child to improve my job prospects. 


I wouldn't sleep with someone before I broke up with someone I'd already claimed to love. 


Lying is not part of my social tool kit. 


I've only used knowledge, talent, or friendships, to get a job - never sex or sex appeal.


 I could go on, but the bottom line is, this is goofy and destructive behavior (to the self and society) and I want to know if women understand that's what it is - and what a burden it is for men to cope with?

So intent on "breaking the glass ceiling" they forget who's got to clean up,...

TMR On France: Fool Me Once (Shame On You,...)


Even though I warned them,
"Yes, (France has) problems with money, with business and with success. But that's no reason to throw the baby out with the bathwater and treat us like we are doomed to catastrophe. The poor Frenchman can no longer stand this avalanche of self-hatred. "Each one of us should reject this criticism to give us back the joy and pride we have in being French."
Like I said - I told 'em - so I say get it back yourselves, assholes:

  Everybody knows what you are,...

It Was Only Make-Believe (Part I)


I dreamed of/had a nightmare about my wife last night. Woke up flailing.


I got "married". Then, 20 years later, I discovered - whether describing individuals or government operatives - I was the only one who thought so. As far as I know, I 'm still the only one who thinks so. Everyone else - NewAgers one and all - are practicing some kind of psychological alchemy called "moving on." Sure things happened - sure people get hurt - but a new self-image is formed. One that conforms with the cultist's vision of themselves - not their victim's. Essentially, fooling themselves.


I think determining what is and isn't - seemingly Obie Wan Kenobi-style - should be simple. A few days ago I gave you this quote:
"The politics is debatable. But the reality isn’t."

And today, finally, I give you it's sister - I say "finally" because this quote's from the world of yoga, where they've been determined to be pretty darned cagey with the truth:
"If it is religious, which it is,…"

Is/isn't? Of course it is. (Even the AARP suggests against "joining the ashram.") Religion and politics are both ephemeral, but only through cultism - in this case, under the guise of exercise, from "the most spiritual place on Earth" - has religion wiggled it's way into Western reality, to such an extent that it can go unremarked as such, necessitating further identification.


It reveals a shocking lack of ethics from cultists, knowingly foisting yoga on the public in disguise, and an even more shocking lack of religious knowledge by the public, as to the true nature of the practices they are engaged in - cultists and non-cultists - as well as who is preying on them and why.


BTW, when did Oprah get the power to give Absolution or Forgiveness? Did I miss that episode?


I'll check if it's available on YouTube,...

Tail (It's Embarrassing,...)


Now that I'm caring for a seriously delusional friend, what passes for normal behavior is coming into even better focus than usual. Especially the way people impulsively fill holes in their knowledge with nonsense, thinking they're clever, and growing angry when caught out. I'm now thinking that's when they're least human because, clearly, it's when they've forgotten one of the most important aspects of any mature person's self-identity - something we honestly should grapple with each and every day:

 We're only animals.

And not very bright ones at that,…

I'll Give You One Middle Finger, And Then Two Middle Fingers (And Now Look At Me, Ma, I'm Flyyyyyying,...)


Few things piss me off more than people screaming, "Stop feeling sorry for yourself!" (Oh yeah, the world's shit all over you but you're supposed to be happy about it? Good luck with that,….) It's just a bunch of false self-esteem-building bullshit, that's always followed too-closely by the hypocrite's call to "Be humble!" - because, quite obviously, no one who was truly practicing being humble themselves could or would make such a demand of others. It's simply impossible, the jackasses.

What such NewAge Nazis are really trying to do is beat the humanity out of other people - attempting to create more of the same type of emotional cripples they are; a bunch of ethically-free pussies, proud of feeling nothing real - mostly because they aren't. So, after hearing Dan Auerbach's "Heartbroken, In Disrepair" on the radio (and enjoying it's opening riff) I'm posting this not-so-humble song of pain as a clear rebuke to those who - if they were in charge - would've stopped The Blues from ever being invented. Because honestly - when you really get down to it - there's waaaay more to life, and living, than someone being superficially "happy." And many of you bastards are the same ones - rubbing our faces in the shit, for yourselves, to begin with - so why should we ever listen to you? I'll never do it.

Just fuck you guys. That's really all I've got for you: 

Fuck you guys all day long,...

Sucking Is All That's On Your Mind (And It Shows,...)


So what's it like to be a man, living amongst "a generation that cannot learn"? Much like it was for those who found themselves stuck with the Khmer Rouge, I guess:

Nobody makes any sense, so you try and lay low, avoiding getting your brains smashed in. 

These crazy revolutionaries are mostly so-called feminists, publicly struggling with their all-important "self-esteem, " and their highest ambition is to be "happy." They don't create, or build, but excel only at being. Their every thought is related to something internal, and yet still superficial, which they'll lash out to protect. They've rewritten the laws to make it this way. Yell and it's verbal abuse. You can't hit because - as everybody knows - violence is not the answer. And no one has to listen to anyone else (I'm sure there's a law somewhere saying that) insuring there's no way to improve anything without risking getting burned - so you protect yourself.

And the best way to do that is hide. 

This is America 2012. Not America itself, which has been buried beneath years of feminist bullshit, covered over by cultists because the importance of knowing how to stand on your own two feet has been lost to the cowards. Now it's all-important to have Facebook friends or be part of a gang or have a support group - just don't call it a cult (even if that's what it is) because that word's offensive to cultists. 

That the world they've somehow forged is offensive to life itself is here-nor-there. 



Meh.

Madness: It's Not Just A Ska Band Anymore,...

It's not easy being an atheist because, surrounded by believers, there's nothing I can really say to stop the madness they'll engage in:
More details emerge about Portland mom who is accused of trying to circumcise her baby at home

The 29-year-old mom told a Portland police detective that she’d been inspired to circumcise her baby after reading the Old Testament.
 
The only problem was, her son was already three months old. And she was aware that pediatricians at OHSU Doernbecher Children's Hospital wouldn’t circumcise him because he was too old, she told police.
 
According to papers filed in Multnomah County Circuit Court this week and obtained by The Oregonian, the prosecution publicly outlined its case for the first time:
 
Keemonta Peterson told police she watched some YouTube videos about circumcisions. Then around midnight on the morning of Oct. 24 - using a box cutter as a scalpel and a pair of pliers as a tourniquet - she began the procedure. She had no experience.
 
When the bleeding wouldn’t stop, she tried to stitch her baby up. Her 13-year-old son watched on in distress. After two hours of uncontrolled bleeding, Peterson decided she needed help and called 9-1-1 to her home near East Burnside Street and 127th Avenue.
 
Medics rushed the infant to OHSU, where he was initially listed in critical condition.
Pretty woman - click on the link (in red) and look at her photo - just dumb as a fucking rock. And she did it in front of her son? Man, is he going to need therapy, or what?

Speaking of women getting a little full of themselves (and thinking they're "all that and a new set of radials") here's a NewAge phenomena that's gotten more-than-a-bit out of hand with feminism:
Are you looking for your inner Priestess? Better be careful if you are. The Priestess Process is New Age group psychotherapy usually "facilitated" by a psychotherapist or a person simply trained in this trademarked protocol. In the Priestess Process, through workshops and exercises (not physical exercises) a person's subconscious is deftly opened for the implantation of words, phrases, thoughts and ideas usually centered around improving self esteem and self worth. The techniques used are classic mind control/brainwashing exercises. Used by women on a journey trying to find their value, the Priestess Process may improve self worth and esteem...through false affirmations and repetition of platitudes...but, unfortunately for the participant it also creates a subconscious mind that unknowingly affects conscious normal relationships with other people who have not had the need to undergo a similar experience.
Got that, Ladies? Some people are normal and don't need help - which should tell you you've got problems - serious mental problems you won't accept, which is why you do this cock-a-mamy bullshit. You, too, probably need some therapy - real therapy. As a matter of fact, as the Priestess Process will tell you, you deserve it!

That's also not to say those lying, thieving dirty baby-killing dogs at Planned Parenthood are the ones to go for help either:
When Chuckles the Sockpuppet Schumer says Democrats will “never, never, never” vote to defund Planned Parenthood, he’s not kidding. But their intransigence has nothing to do with anyone’s physical health. It has everything to do with the Democrats’ political health. They would be voting to cut off their own campaign cash, pried from the hands of taxpayers.
That's right. And I'm just as in favor of giving them money as I am my local voodoo priest:
IT was past 3 a.m. in a dim basement in Flatbush, Brooklyn, and Jack Laroche, a Haitian-American computer engineer, nervously awaited his bride: a voodoo spirit named Ezili Freda who believers say has the power to lavish love and wealth and render wayward spouses impotent. 

As four drummers pounded rhythmically, voodoo priestesses in bright-colored dresses danced in ecstatic circles, dousing the floor with rum and chanting, “Ayibobo!” — the voodoo “amen.” The bride’s dramatic entrance was signaled when a priestess in a shimmering pink silk dress started trembling violently, her eyes rolling toward the back of her head before she fainted. When she came to, apparently possessed by Ezili Freda, she took Mr. Laroche’s hand and nibbled on his ear coquettishly before the happy couple exchanged vows in French.

Long misunderstood and maligned in Western popular culture, voodoo has become a spiritual anchor in New York City’s vast Haitian community and in Haitian enclaves across the country as practitioners look for comfort after the devastating earthquake in the impoverished Caribbean nation last year.

In New York, where there are roughly 300,000 people who were born in Haiti or are of Haitian descent — the largest concentration in the United States — richly painted basement voodoo temples are sprinkled around Harlem and in parts of Brooklyn and Queens. Mambos, or voodoo priestesses, say they can barely keep up with “demann,” or prayer requests; spiritual love recipes to lure recalcitrant lovers are the most popular. Voodoo prayer circles in which practitioners meet to commiserate have also proliferated, with a notable intensity in the months since the earthquake.

But the world of voodoo has fallen under an unwelcome spotlight in recent weeks as a result of two episodes in which the authorities say voodoo played a central role — a fatal five-alarm fire in Brooklyn and the coming trial in Queens of a woman accused of severely burning her daughter.
Sorry, Folks, but you're not priests and priestesses but a bunch of wierdos hurting each other - and kids - so, as far as I'm concerned, the sooner we can ship the whole lot of you - feminists, Democrats, NewAge believers, voodoo whatevers, etc. - back to wherever you came from (or at least Europe) the better:

As an American atheist, I've had it.
