REPENTING OF RACISM
Racism means that firing ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling Black spaces
who hashtag, frame, brutalize, flood our streets with drugs and guns and whisk our kids away in CHILD rape rings
to them and to others is considered ‘radical’ and ‘racist’, needing more ‘moderate’ measures like bodycams,
civilian oversight and liability insurance instead, because the underlying racist premise that we’re programmed to think
but NEVER (or rarely) say is that we are incapable of policing ourselves and that white cops from elsewheres are the last
bastion of defense against utter chaos in our streets. But let just one cop do to them a fraction of what’s been done to us
and the whole world 🌍 upends where they’ll fire, suspend or ban an entire precinct - including its chief - for the ill action of just one or two.
To maintain this delusion, they have back to back cop and lawyer shows running 24/7 on tv along with a media and
legal system that obfuscates the truth unless they can put a Black (or brown) face as the culprit.
Again, CHILDREN, racism that is conscious mal-intent is 1% of our problem. The other 99% is...
You ever play the association game?
Black > white
Up > down
Left > right
Drugs > Escobars
Crime of the century > OJ
Reparations > handout
Black people > lazy
Coronavirus?
And I could go on.
The same is true for many of our other ills. Only a fraction of the 1% pull all the strings with mal-intent
(and their strings are pulled by greed and the like, believing the demonic fallacies of ‘In order for you to have more, I must have less’ and ‘There’s not enough to go around’ and ‘Survival of the fittest’ and ‘Rugged individualism’ and ‘Advancement, by nature, comes at a price’)
with truth mixed in with the lies we tell ourselves. But it’s the 99% of us who continue to play our marionette parts that keep this ship of evil afloat.
The helm of the ship says ‘stroke’ and we say ‘What can I do? I’m just paddling with one oar! If I make waves, they’ll throw me off. Trouble is that we’re headed over a fall.
Being a christian (the real kind) gives me a unique perspective. When I point out the fall ahead or the fact that
the ones in the back of the boat are mal-treated or that the boat is leaking in the middle and we need to take the time
to patch it up or we’ll all drown and you say I’m overreacting, my biggest concern is not that you listen, but that I did EVERYTHING IN MY POWER to dissuade you according to the rules.
And what are the rules, you say? We all know the rules. They’re ingrained in us. We just choose not to follow and/ or our hearts become so hard that we no longer care.
Now 9x out of 10, the natural order takes over. Children play with fire and they get burnt. So children learn not to play with fire and respect its power.
But every now and then, The Almighty intervenes directly. I can’t tell which. That is not my superpower. Nor do I need to know to tell you what’s what.
Commonsense, which is my superpower, says that if we repent of our racist conditionings here, an evil that has dominated our land for far too long, a domino effect will
result. But if we do not, we and/or those around us will continue to exist in squalor and pain and abuse for no other
reason than we chose not to treat others as we’d like to be treated. And we need to understand that everyone wants to
put down the oar but our ingrained conditioning prevents it. But mark this; we are ALWAYS just one or two oars away from
changing EVERYTHING! Evil always hangs by a thread. Pull it just a little and the whole tapestry begins to unravel.
Be well.
