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.

Wake Up: Racism Is Still Prevalent In America

My heart really goes out to the families of the people slain by the late Wade Michael Page, a white supremacist. I started to think about this very hard and came to the realization that racism is still prevalent in America. Racism is a belief held by an individual or group hating another individual or group based on color, religion, creed, age, appearance, or background. I hate to say this but I need to say this. Racism is still prevalent in America today. Just a couple of weeks ago, a black couple's wedding had to be held at another church because the predominantly white church were mortified to have another race on it's premises. During my days of living in North Carolina, I remember going to a school in Princeton where the staff including teachers and principals were racists. I remember people of my own race shared racist comments about Caucasians and Mexicans (oh yeah, African American can be just as racist as the most hateful KKK member). Shoot, I've made various racist comments in my time in the Army and thereafter ("I ain't lying, I ain't lying"-Madea voice). Racism has been here since the beginning of time and the beginning of the U.S.A. Over years, we've experienced slavery, Jim Crow laws, laws against the Native Americans, American concentration camps of the Asian population during World War II, and of course the civil rights movement. In the late 20th century to this present time, it "seems" racism is nonexistent. Various people from all walks of life are working together in the workplace, studying in the universities, playing in professional sports, and chat with each other on social networking sites. We think that it's all good and we've learned from the late Rodney King, "to all get along." However, this recent shooting should raise a red flag for us today. Has racism really gone away? I say that it hasn't. Yeah, some of you may say, Dave, you're entitled to your own opinion. But here are the facts I see in everyday life. Matter of fact, let me pose some questions to you and then let them marinate in your conscience for a while:

• Why are there still white supremacist groups still hateful against other races?
• Why are there still "black power" movements still taking aim at the white man for what happened to their ancestors centuries ago?
• Why are black people still thinking all white people are "the man" and blame them for all that's wrong in their lives?
• Why do Americas look at all Mexican workers as robbers of jobs in the marketplace?
• Why are churches who believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and God still separated based on race, color, creeds, worship styles, and background?
• Why are there stigmata between the various groups of the Latino culture such as dialects, country, etc.?
• Why do us"native" (anyone born in the US) Americans hate on other races/cultures coming here to the US to attain a better life?
• Why are there many cities across the US still "silently" promoting divisions for different races to live?
• Why is there a prevalence of injustice toward Native Americans?
• Why are people still systematically teaching racism to the up and coming generations?

Why, Oh why, my friends? What happened to the community in Wisconsin should be a reminder and wake up call that racism is still prevalent in America. People are going to various extremes like mass-murder, monetary corruption, gang activity, political corruption, and fanatical religious crusades to destroy another who they deem as impure. This is what happens when our hearts aren't congruent with the heart of God. God loves all people. He doesn't like our sin (as many try to justify) but loves us all the same. When He came and died, He did it for all mankind. The great write Paul said in his testimony to the Greek philosophers in Athens that God made us from one blood all nations of the earth (Acts 17:26). Because of sin and just human nature (as Michael Jackson perfect examined), we hate each other. My thing is, everyone from the atheist to the Buddhist envision a life after this, some sort of heavenly place. No more crying, no more sickness, and for us who hate working everyday, no more bills ( smile). But we're still on this racism tip, which is mostly now undercover (hello). This is a point I must get across to  us all. Who do you think is going to be in heaven? Is it going to be God, the angels, and one particular number or race? I think not. John who had a vision in the isle of Patmos had a vision of heaven and the constituents living there. He saw God, the angels, and an innumerable amount of people of all nations, kindred, and languages there whose lives were washed in the blood of Lamb (Revelation 7:9). They all were seen worshipping the King together in harmony and in unity. Racism isn't a thought of love or maybe constructive criticism, it's a thought of hate, separation, and evil. Believe you me, God ain't down with it. My friends, I'm just as guilty of racism as Wade Michael Page because I've done some racist stuff in my 31 years on earth. But thank God for massaging my heart and to raise awareness of racism in the US. 

Til next time, dgwo.
