Is America's anti- racism moment just a fad?

TWEET METhese are interesting times in America. All of a sudden the Black Lives Matter movement is relevant, and white America is having a coming to Jesus moment when it comes to racism. Corporations are all becoming woke (RIP Aunt Jemima), institutions are all scrambling to show that they are not racist, black employees are finally speaking out, and everyone is looking for a black friend. Heck even republican senators are decrying racism and trying to find ways to tackle institutional racism. Juneteenth is being declared a holiday by at least one major city, and employers, not to be left out of this new found wokeness, were giving their African American employees June 19th off with pay.

It's amazing what a video of a man being killed by someone under the color of title can do for the national psyche. White Americans watched what black folks have been telling them have been going on all along, and were shocked. They took to the streets to join their black brothers and sisters in protest, and the country has not been the same since.

I have to wonder, though, is this just another passing fad? How serious are we as Americans about making real change when it comes to racism. Racism, after all, cannot be legislated away. It lies in the heart, and in order to really do away with racism, you have to change the heart of the racist. I personally do not believe that will happen, so rather than trying to do that, we have to change how many of these institutions deal with matters of race, and dismantle institutional racism where we find it.

It's nice to see the new found consciousness from Americans, but Americans tend to like to jump on the latest fad. So, like tight jeans and reality television shows, this all too might pass.

We will see.

There is a time lag between infections spiking and people getting sick enough to go into hospital.

Don’t worry. In a few weeks, the ICUs will start filling up and then it will become obvious that the so-called “fake news” was, in fact, painfully real.

At which point, Trump will blame it all on BLM or Mexicans or China or something.

NOPE LIAR .Its been Two Weeks since the riots ended and no massive second wave, its all bullshit.

"What if some of the black offenders committed more than one murder, same for white offenders may have done? What does that do to your data?"

The vast majority of murders are not mass murders. More than 99.9% to be exact.

From 2012:
Grant Duwe, who works for the Minnesota State Department of Corrections and is the author of Mass Murder in the United States: A History, has looked at 1,202 mass murders between 1900 and 2009. Of those, 12%, or 142 incidents, were massacres in public such as the Denver shooting early Friday morning and at Virginia Tech in 2007 and Columbine in 1999.

But those kind of mass public shootings accounted for less than one-tenth of 1% of all murders in general, he said.


https://nationalpost.com/news/mass-public-killings-under-1-of-all-murders

So that supposition does not affect the interpretation of the data.

Perhaps you misunderstood my post. I said nothing about mass murderers. I'm sure there are murderers who have killed two or three people, and I think they represent more than one-tenth of one percent.

Maybe. That's a hard number to come by.

By unless you assume there is a racial difference in the percentage of murderers who are also multiple murderers, it wouldn't effect the relative murder rates.

Eskimo Pie company vows change, calls branding derogatory

The company behind the Eskimo Pie brand is vowing to change the name of the ice cream bar.

Reuters reported the brand's name and marketing would change. The announcement comes as several brands are making changes in response to concerns over racism.

"We are committed to being a part of the solution on racial equality, and recognize the term is derogatory,” Elizabell Marquez, a marketing head with the brand's parent company, Dreyer’s Grand Ice Cream, told news outlets.

AT THE COLUMBIA JOURNALISM REVIEW, we capitalize Black, and not white, when referring to racial groups. Black is an ethnic designation; white merely describes the skin color of people who can, usually without much difficulty, trace their ethnic origins back to a handful of European countries.

That white Americans can be collectively accused of acting in their own interest to the detriment of all other ethnic groups, but yet somehow don't qualify as an ethnic group themselves is one of the weirder parts of the modern race discussion.

Maybe the Critical Race Theory people are right and those White American who refuse to recognize the existence of their own ethnic group are the worst kind of White Supremacists.

Junipero Serra, Francis Scott Key statues toppled in San Francisco Golden Gate Park

SAN FRANCISCO - Two statues in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park were toppled on Friday, apparently the latest in the global trend of protesters looking to dismantle symbols of racist historical figures.

Both Francis Scott Key and Junipero Serra came tumbling down as documented on social media.


Junipero Serra was a Franciscan priest who founded missions in California.

Francis Scott Key was the the composer of "The Star Spangled Banner" back in 1814.

Black privilege means that you get to take the knee, raise a fist, and smear millions of decent American people as racists. Pure self-indulgence. It will backfire horribly and cause more racism, not less, as tolerant people run out of patience.

Flying Junior said...

Blacks have a stranglehold over this county, it's incredible. You literally can't blame them for anything. Blacks are now America's gods, the state religion. Not paying them fealty is like not worshipping the Emperor in Rome, with similar consequences.

What the hell are you fucking talking about? I sure learn a lot reading the pathetic attempts at making sense that you crazy fucks come up with to justify your hatred.

I really don't think that white people have to give up any freedoms simply to afford Blacks the opportunity to work, live, laugh and play here in the United States free from discrimination and persecution.

Let's say that magically police departments across the land stop treating black people with undue suspicion. Even really annoying black people that mouth off to the police are somehow met with a professional and cool demeanor on the part of the officers. Soon black people realize that they will not be carted of to jail for a simple traffic stop. A greater understanding between the police departments and the communities ensues. A win-win, right?

How the fuck would that hurt you? But anything that destroys the white supremacist narrative is okay by me. Let's work on that.

"Junipero Serra, Francis Scott Key statues toppled in San Francisco Golden Gate Park"

The nearby statue of Ulysses S. Grant was also toppled. Now they are tearing down monuments to those who fought the Confederates too.

Frederick Douglass eulogized Grant as “a man too broad for prejudice, too humane to despise the humblest, too great to be small at any point. In him the Negro found a protector, the Indian a friend, a vanquished foe a brother, an imperiled nation a savior.

No man in high position has manifested in his intercourse with me upon all occasions and in all places a more entire freedom from vulgar prejudice of race and color, than Ulysses S. Grant. I see in him the vigilant, firm, impartial, and wise protector of my race from all the malign, reactionary, social, and political elements that would overwhelm them in destruction."


The Mob is less motivated by hatred of Confederates than by hatred of white men.

Though the death rate for COVID-19 is unclear, almost all credible research suggests it is much higher than that of the seasonal flu.

It's important to note that there is no one death rate for COVID-19; the rate can vary by location, age of person infected and the presence of underlying health conditions, Live Science previously reported.

---------------------

It's baked into the DNA and conscious efforts are required to deny it.

Not supremacy, but difference.

America is wedded to its foundational myth of equality and is powerless to respond to an attack that proceeds from that fundamental premise, no matter how irrational and destructive it is.

If this was a white supremacist country you wouldn't have anti-white mobs destroying symbols of white America at will all across the country.

The government wouldn't be sitting back and facilitating anti-white violence and immediately conceding to the demands of the perpetrators.

Whites don't think of themselves as superior. They are actually the only people who believe in racial equality. The entire white world is rapidly collapsing under sustained attack from within. Whites are a deeply flawed people who are powerless to defend their culture or even their existence. They would rather watch their country torn down than be risk being called racist.

That's the opposite of supremacy.

"Covid-19 only has a 1% morbidity rate,much like the common flu. Its over rated."

!% mortality rate would be TEN TIMES the mortality rate of flu.

And many states are showing well above 1% mortality rate. If enough people get infected, hospitals get overwhelmed, doctors and nurses can't help patients, and mortality rates skyrocket. The mortality rate in Lombardy, Italy, where COVID-19 got completely out of control, was horrific.

Stop lying. Your "god-emperor" has failed and more than 100,000 Americans have been killed because of it. Time to come clean.

Illinois succeeded in defeating the first wave of COVID. It did better than anticipated and did not need the extra hospital beds. So, sure, there was some waste there, but better to be safe than sorry.

New York City's hospitals DID get swamped, deaths DID skyrocket, and they had to build makeshift morgues out on the street as the bodies stacked up.

I guess Florida saw that horror movie scenario and thought it was something they'd like to experience. Go figure.

From Goats and Sodas.... Eskimo

People in many parts of the Arctic consider Eskimo a derogatory term because it was widely used by racist, non-native colonizers. Many people also thought it meant eater of raw meat, which connoted barbarism and violence. Although the word's exact etymology is unclear, mid-century anthropologists suggested that the word came from the Latin word excommunicati, meaning the excommunicated ones, because the native people of the Canadian Arctic were not Christian.


It was considered racist, just like I consider wingnuts racist.

While I commend the many whites for stepping in line to express and fight for "Black Lives Matter"
however, let's keep this in perspective.

The truth of the matter is, Black folks have been expressing and calling out injustices bestowed upon them for over 400 years and the cries pretty much fell on "deaf ears."

So, along come the whites finally championing the Black Lives Movement and stepping in to join and protest like never before...

But hold on here. Let's be for real. On a subconscious level what is helping to fuel white anger towards the system that has been oppressing blacks for 400+ years is the failure of the "Imperial Leader" to protect them against the covid, killing them, and causing thousands of them to lose their jobs.

So on a subconscious level, they are beginning to realize, and have gotten a feeling for what it feels like when the "powers that be" don't give a damn. And now that they see that they too have been and are being disrespected, and neglected then on a subconscious level they must be realizing that if this is anything at all like how black folks have been made to feel for over 400 years in America, then holy freakin cow!!!!!!

Also, I'm not impressed by the many corporations that all of a sudden are putting out statements about how "Black Lives Matter". They're just trying to appeal to all of the white protestors because they don't want them to start boycotting their products. They just trying to keep white folks happy. Because when black folks were marching for Black Lives Matter and kneeling all of the corporations were so quiet you could hear birds chirping. DUUUh.

On a subconscious level what is helping to fuel white anger towards the system that has been oppressing blacks for 400+ years is the failure of the "Imperial Leader" to protect them against the covid, killing them, and causing thousands of them to lose their jobs.

So on a subconscious level, they are beginning to realize, and have gotten a feeling for what it feels like when the "powers that be" don't give a damn. And now that they see that they too have been and are being disrespected, and neglected then on a subconscious level they must be realizing that if this is anything at all like how black folks have been made to feel for over 400 years in America, then holy freakin cow!!!!!!

Also, I'm not impressed by the many corporations that all of a sudden are putting out statements about how "Black Lives Matter". They're just trying to appeal to all of the white protestors because they don't want them to start boycotting their products. They just trying to keep white folks happy. Because when black folks were marching for Black Lives Matter and kneeling all of the corporations were so quiet you could hear birds chirping. DUUUh.
