Specifically, this most recent insurgency was OBVIOUSLY intended to make sure black people got mad at the “right” people. They SHOULD be mad at the governments which even now are destroying them by preventing them from working, and preventing their kids from going to school. That is who should be the target of anger.
Instead, Target gets attacked, and statues get attacked. I wonder how long this misdirection can last, since their misery right now is scarcely hidden from most black folks, or anyone else.
But the goal of sane people–any moderate Democrats remaining, and honest Republicans–should be to peel the white radicals away from ordinary working class blacks.
We need a slogan. I propose “Better Schools, Better Jobs”. This is what they need, isn’t it? It’s what they have LONG needed, isn’t it? Single parent homes are in no small measure driven by economic malaise and the difficulty of the man (and the woman for that matter, but most will not abandon their child) in earning an honest living. Good jobs make for better marriages. And good schools make for better jobs.
Add “Police Reform” to that if you want. Blacks do suffer more violence from cops, even if not more death, per capita.
But it would actually make more sense to say something like “End our war on ourselves” or “Stop killing your brothers and sisters”.
But that violence, too, is a result of economic malaise brought on by schools which are war zones and which graduate hundreds of thousands of kids every year barely able to read, and whose job prospects are dim, and will never get better. Ever. Not unless they do a turnabout and do the work and go to college. And of course most don’t.
Democrats want blacks ignorant and angry. They want them to continue to fail to see how they are using them, and how they have used them all these many years, to win elections by promising progress which never comes, and which they reverse when they can. This is the root reason DeBlasio killed the Charter Schools in New York that had inner city kids in the 90th percentile, which is fantastic. Smart blacks realize they are being played. They can’t have that, at least until they can legalize 10 million Hispanics, who they can then play instead.
The whole thing is a sick, amoral game, played by gangsters for power and money. It is evil. Our nation is at war with evil, and what we need to realize is that evil has been winning for many decades, due to our complacency, ignorance, and willingness to be sidelined by aggressive bullies who call us names we know we don’t deserve, but who KNOW this, and whose only goal is to shame their opponents into silence.
Anyone who opposes them WILL be called names. They WILL be attacked. But this is the price of defending actual, honest decency.
Stop retreating America. And, again, the counterattack looks like this: “Better Schools, Better Jobs”, combined with plans. Charter Schools are the obvious first step, and tax shelter zones and other targeted investment the second.
And self evidently, the recent riots set the black community back quite a bit. The damage is fixable, but the radicals need to be culled from the mix, or they will ruin the black community for another generation. The radicals feel nothing but hate and love nothing but violence. It is my understanding that Dostoevsky’s book about similar radical in his time–who came to be called Nihilists–which is usually translated “The Possessed” could equally be translated “The Demons”. Recall that his “demons” eventually won, and that perhaps a hundred million people around the world died, and billions suffered and continue to suffer.
And I would speak directly to the black community: why would you want to continue to allow yourself to be led by white demons and their black proxies? The white people you need to be watching are not the rednecks, but the Ivy League graduates who say they are your friend. They are not your friend. They are your worst enemy.
Rednecks you can talk to. Rednecks you can reason with, and you can over time cause even the most racist among them to see you as a person and even to like you.
But radicals can never, ever, ever be made to see any individual as a person, or to feel affection for anyone who is not playing a concrete role in an abstract work which has as its end the destruction of everything good in the world.
No radical will ever see black people as individuals. They can only see race. They can only see your group. They cannot differentiate the homicidal psychopaths from the saintly church going grandmothers. All are equal to them. There is no difference.
Ponder this.
