Decided not to derail anyone else's journals, but I can damn sure rant on mine:
http://subliminal-talk.com/thread-7995-p...#pid133684
I'm so f*cking tired of listening to white people (and non-blacks in general) pontificating about the ills and the causes of the black community. My GOD, I can't read an article on video games without someone crying about Commander Shepard being black in Mass Effect. I can't read a BASE journal without someone stating an ignorant and incorrect "observation" about the black community.
And of course, they completely ignore the 500 years of chattel slavery, followed by Jim Crow and other discriminatory laws that were only repealed 70 years ago. Think about that. That's not even a full generation. You created a system that was designed to beat down an entire group of people and now you're so f*cking shocked that they haven't recovered in less than 100 years?
Of course not -- because then, you wouldn't be able to hold on to your privileged sense of inherent superiority, hunh?
Every where there's poverty, there's crime. Ever notice how these same white people never talk about the extreme organized crime in poverty-stricken areas of Russia? No black people there, who do you blame then?
Poverty is a generational curse. It's a fucking black hole. It's almost damn near impossible to get free. Look at all the modules in BASE. Look at what it takes? The average person, who knows nothing but crime and poverty will usually follow the same programming. If it were so easy to break away from, Shannon wouldn't have a business right now.
That's what black people mean when they say, if you didn't grow up black, you can't know. Because quite frankly, we're tired of hearing people throw out statistics without acknowledging that statistics don't reveal the cause, only the effects. And we're sick of people saying the cause is some kind of inherent flaw in us.
So, I've said this before -- the manifestations of Trump and Clinton -- is a battle between traditional WHITE masculinity and modern WHITE feminism. That's it. And as an intelligent black man in today's society, I can honestly say that I don't give a shit who wins, because black people won't get any benefit from it. While you guys devastate each other for political power, we'll just sit back and bide our time, waiting for the "winner" to emerges, bloody and broken, and THEN we'll take everything that was denied to us.
