The Hypocrisy of America's Racism

The more time goes by, the more bullshit happens and what happened in Charlottesville Virginia is bullshit. Please believe, I've gone through a couple of rough drafts to speak my mind on this matter and now I'm ready to share my thoughts. Trump's presidency has turned another page in the ongoing saga that continues, which is racism, prejudice, and discrimination. To be quite honest, these three things are etched in the USA's DNA and many of us still believe this country was founded on "christian values." At first, I say it's nonsense but as I comb through my vast knowledge of Christianity and the Bible, I agree with the latter (but not in the way you think).

You see, the main purpose of Christianity, especially when it comes to America, is dominionism. Dominionism in a nut shell is about one group of people taking control and conquering another group of people different from them. It's no secret this pattern of "Christianity" has plagued immigrants, Native Americans, slaves, blacks, Latinos, and every other person who doesn't fit the physical description of the descendants of "Shem" (the righteous and chosen of God). Fast forward August 12, 2017 in Charlottesville Virginia where the reported "alt-right" White power movements came together and made their statement, "we're here to make America great again" (meaning, we're here to gain dominion and take over America as we once did). Even your boy David Duke and other mentionable people have thanked the president for his "support." Do I think the president is a racist? Maybe, maybe not. However, Trump isn't the point of where I'm going, it's about the climate America has been condoning for way too long, racism.

This conflict that happened this past weekend shows that people are still hating others because of "the color of their skin but not the content of their character" (if it's a shitty character). This isn't just applicable to whites, it's for every race who can't stand somebody else because they look differently than them. This dislike for someone's skin color also breeds the desire to usurp them and have dominion over them. This isn't right but since the beginning of time, my friends, this has been America's MO. What's fucked up is, America is always telling other nations and peoples what to do, how to do, and when to do. However, America's hypocrisy is being exposed yet again and we're still practicing this shit called racism. You know what else is fucked up, under racist's umbrella, prejudice, discrimination, and color ism thrives. The people of power (dominionists) underfoot the people who are power-less.

The other side I'd like to point out about this past weekend's fiasco is that White Supremacy's kicks are becoming more like a dog's bark. Right now, the Asians are kicking White Supremacy's ass when it comes to making that dollar. Although whites (supremacists) may be the face of this noted supremacy (many blacks love to quote), the Asians have become America's measuring stick and now leaders of the free world that is in America. I'm thinking, these assholes who marched finally see that the power they used to have is nothing more than powder puff. They want that power back but to quote a god emcee, the Asians will "not surrender it" and that's a goddamn fact. Now let's take this home.

Racism is bullshit and America has used the tools of capitalism, politics, and religion to keep this shit rolling. These are the "christian values" that have now got us in a lot of shit and it's time to go back to the drawing board. Of course, racism will not stop as long as the world revolves; however, I believe it's time to "reason together" and talk this bullshit out. Why are we racist? Was this because of our upbringing? Are we racist because we see other people of different races making that paper we're not making? Is our racism caused by our ever-growing sociopathy? Is racism caused by our ignorance?
I'll say yes to all of these questions. It's time for us to get off the horse of our hypocrisy. Every race on this goddamn planet has contributed to everything we see, use, touch, smell, and eat; every race. TO HATE SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN IS TO HATE YOURSELF.

This is public message to you assholes who call yourselves white supremacist and pro-blacks. GTFOH with BS you talking and get with the fucking program; that is to LIVE YOUR LIFE AND GET MONEY.

Who Is The Captain Of Your Destiny?

We're living in a time (the horrid millennial era) when people feel entitled, don't take responsibility for the shit they do (or don't do), and complain about everything (yet do nothing about it). Mostly, this type of behavior is exhibited by the black community (although it's seen in other races). Whenever logical people point their bullshit out, they love to throw out the famous Tupac phrase, "only god can judge." Well, in the Queen James book (aka KJV), it says "that people are gods" and in the real world, every person is entitled to their opinion. Fuck it, here's mine. My question to people today is, who is the captain of your destiny? Is it an invisible force called "god?" Is it your boss on your job? Is it your spouse or children? Should the captain be these people, places, and things? Should it be you? I'll concur with the latter rhetorical question. One thing I hate hearing people say is that "god will take care of me" bullshit. In this generation, we're hearing people say this and doing it accordingly, which is nothing. You've got young people in college flunking school and trying to manipulate the professors/department heads to pass them using lies. We've got ASNs (ain't shit nuccas) always looking for a handout because they still don't know what earning a living is about. We've got women having babies by ASNs repeatedly, getting their mindset pacified by heir local churches, and living off everyone else's tax dollars. You know what these motherfuckers say and believe; god will take care of me. God isn't the only one taking care of them, it's the rest of us, too. They have become irresponsible people and want someone else to take care over their lives. Why do you think black folks are so docile and underachieving? I'll tell you. They want someone else to take the role of captain in their life but refuse take the role for themselves. They want people to tell them what they want to do (mostly what they want to hear) and follow their lead. These motherfuckers don't have initiative in them. They believe "Jesus" is gonna make everything alright but let me bring you back to reality. You better wake up and get with the fucking program. I see too many of us not traveling, not saving, not climbing the ladder to riches, and not laying a foundation of successive legacy for those behind us. I'm not telling people not to believe in god but saying that you need to the captain of your own destiny. At the end of the day, you have to pay bills, you have to work, and making it in this world requires you to steer your own ship. That's responsibility and the toils/joys of adulthood. So please, get out of the cabin bed, pour water on your face, and get back to the captain's seat of your life and take control of your life. You'll thank me later....

Emotionally Detached People

We all go through things in life that make us stronger, better, and wiser. We also can go through things that make us colder, bitter, and apathetic. Some of us become more kinder and compassionate in certain subjects while others don't give much "grace." I believe we live in a very apathetic and emotionally detached society. Just look at the latest news happening from popular musical artists to us everyday "common folk." Emotional detachment has become a regular deal in American society but many of us are too goddamn blind to see it. Emotional detachment can spring from mentally traumatic events in our lives such as rape, abuse, failed relationships, and financial problems. The larger the amount of these events, the more detached we can become. Emotional detachment can also stem from the environment(s) we're around. The healthier the environment, the mentally healthier the person. And "if this is not so, ahhh, god bless...(Jay-Z's Friend or Foe). I know I see it and can say that I'm one of those emotionally detached people. Most of my "issues" have been mental, which began from the ages of 6/7. I can say over the past 15 years of my life, I've become more apathetic and emotionally detached. I didn't recognize how bad I've become until this past weekend. My wife told me that my body is here but my mind is somewhere else. Shit, that cut deep but the process of illumination began. I began to see how I've built this wall around me to keep everyone out. I realized how I've arrested emotions to feel but became a person of stone. I've become the very thing a close of friend of mine 3 years ago warned me not to be. In layman's terms, I became an "unlikable asshole." The great thing about this is that I know I'm not the only one. I reckon that if a person gets to the point when they don't call their friends or family on a regular basis, that's a positive sign. If a person can be married to someone yet shows no affection to their spouse, that's a positive sign. If a person allows certain beliefs and/or religious/political/cultural views to repress their actual essence, that's a positive sign. I believe the best solution is for a "day one ish" person to call us out on our shit. As the first step of the scientific method, to reach a solution, we must first identify the problem. I think each person goes through this and our person is determined by how we handle emotional detachments; that is, from ourselves, our family/friends, and the world around us. Hell, what do I know?

Is Free Speech Becoming Extinct?

Before I went to work this morning, I read a headline stating Lena Dunham (of Girls fame) made an "allegation" that some American Airlines employees made "transphobic comments." Colin Kapernick hasn't landed an NFL organization due to his stance concerning the Black Lives Matter movement. Recently, YouTube has been upping the ante on how vloggers are presenting their content and if any form of "hate speech" is deemed (or reported by the trolls), their entire channel gets shut down. We can see this same shit is happening to social networking "gurus" on Twitter and Facebook. If they say something "out the pocket", their page(s) get suspended without warning. My only question is this, what the hell is our society coming to? One of my favorite stand up comedies is Andrew Dice Clay's "Face Down, Ass Up" and in his late 90s rant, he talked about how free speech was becoming more like limited speech. Fast forward to August 2017, we have seen free speech becoming more limited, primarily to the changes in our society via social media. We've had so many movements within the past 5 years, from Black Lives Matter, ISIS, and the LGBT community. Anyone that has logically spoke against and/or criticized these movements, they been considered bigots, hell, devils. Sometimes, when people expressed their "disappointments" or thoughts about these movements, they've been right. When people spoke against ISIS being nothing more than a power hungry money grab for people using Islam as the tool, they might get touched. When people criticized the BLM movement concerning its leaders true intentions, they were called coons and sambos. When people noted transgenders not being honest with people they hook up with wrong, they're called discriminatory. In all these instances and others are society is festering, people are to comply with the trends instead of going against the grain. Shit, man. Don't tell your Christian friends you're an atheist, they'll tell you you're going to hell. Don't tell single mothers who keep getting pregnant by dudes who aren't shit they're wrong, they're ready to fight you. Don't tell a gay man or a lesbian they're wrong for  trying to seduce somebody's spouse, they'll call you prejudiced. Don't stand up for a cause because your job might fire your ass. Don't tell a black person to stop blaming white people for their individual fuck ups, they'll call you a coon. Don't tell a KKK member that the same stoplight they use was created by a black man, they're ready to hang you. You see, having your own mind, opinion, and manner of speech is unacceptable. Individualism is frowned upon and if you're flowing against the currents of society, you're considered an outsider. I know for myself, I'm an outspoken person, not boastfully, and believe I have the right to speak freely. However, I feel the weight of society on me because who I am, what I believe in, and what I say will result in motherfuckers getting offended. These days you can't say shit because people are mentally weak and can't stay on the kitchen (the same one they keep opening). What the fuck, man? Why can't we let each be free speak, regardless of its right or wrong? That's what makes life interesting because through conversation, we see all the shades this world is. The people who are being easily offended because somebody says something they don't like should go fuck themselves. Every time somebody says something I don't like, should I be offended every single fucking time? Hell to the naw, to the naw, naw, naw. Come on people, let's not be kids about this shit. Everybody has the right to their own opinion, that's what fundamentally makes America different from the rest. Think about that...

Hard Times For Black Men In The Millennial Era

Lil Duval's is being pressured to apologize for his comments made on The Breakfast Club a couple of days ago. Charlemagne gets flash mobbed by black women and a "trans black woman" during an interview for those comments made by Lil Duval. Videos are circulating through the internet of Bobby V(Valentine) leaving a transsexual's hotel room for failure to pay for "services" and hanging with a group of transsexuals at some type of recording studio. Dwanya Hickerson gets convicted for violently stabbing a transsexual after "finding out" their sexual identity. All of these are black men caught up in a world of controversy involving the certain members of the LGBT community. Of course, this is not new for black men in America, ask both of the Eddie (one of them of course is dead), ask Hank, as well as a slew of others. Once you get caught up in the wrong position or say something wrong about them, that's your ass. Your credibility, cool points, respect, and public position is on the fast train to ruins.

This can happen for the common black man, especially here in the South. I'm an artist so maybe a couple of years ago I could tell but nowadays, "it's hard out here for a pimp." Well, this can't be said for others and believe you me, some of the brothers are getting caught up. Now, let me say this, there are some black men who like transsexuals and trust me, you won't hear me hate on them . I live by this old adage, "if you like it, I love." I'm not judging nobody; however, I don't support transsexuals hiding their true identity from their perspective "mates." We've seen the millennial age put a lot of pressure on black men to be, think, and do a certain way. Shit, let's be honest, this new millennial society wants me to bow down and go with the flow of everything whether right or wrong. In this particular subject of sexuality, it's like we have to be quiet and if we disagree with this lifestyle then we're called haters, bigots, and pigs. That's not fair.

Nowadays, differences of opinions are not valued but are cast down. Nowadays, comedians can't make jokes that make fun of other groups, races, sexes, religions, and creeds like those of yesteryear (Dice Clay, George Carlin, Redd Foxxx, Paul Mooney, to name a few). Radio commentators have to watch what they say because if they say the wrong thing, their ass is grass. Actors definitely better watch their backs, sides, and fronts because if they say something out of line, they'll never work in Hollywood again. "Average Joes" with average jobs have to be careful what they and how they do things because if they get out of pocket, they'll be on Indeed.com.  I'm pretty sure men of all races in America are dealing with this but black men got it the hardest. In the words of the late great Dusty "The Dream" Rhodes, "it's hard times" and it may not get any better.

Lil Duval and Charlemagne aren't backing away from what people like Laverne Cox are rallying. I believe they did nothing wrong and if you can't take a fucking joke, well motherfucker, grow up. Also, understand, when a man thinks he's about to get it in with a woman who's really a transsexual, how should they respond? Some people run away, some out of fear and anxiety of how this society is going to treat them, may do "otherwise."  For Bobby V, if he likes transsexuals, good for him and stop faking the funk. If he is getting extorted, well, he needs to get this situation resolved. For Dwanya, it's going to be a while before he ever will see parole.

It's hard times in the millennial age for black men and the best method is wise up and recognize the world around you. I believe it's time for men to be men and in an estrogen-type society where people can't be individuals, it's going to be an uphill battle.
