SHOW ME THE MONEY

 All of the US police unions (even in liberal central NY and LA) are squarely in 45’s corner but the money that buys off both parties commands the DNC to make sure that its candidates stay mum on all of it; 


yet liberals STILL expect a record turnout of Black folk in swing states to turn the tide of the election once again.


And the hashtags with impunity happen all over America - including the swing states. Commonsense tells me that if I wouldn’t vote even if in a swing state, even knowing that a 2nd term is at stake, then why would they?


And I fully understand Black folk spouting Rock the Vote as opposed to leverage the vote, since it follows their white liberal media masters guidelines. Been there and done that.


And when they lose...again, their media will have their blame-game scapegoats in full effect to deflect from the obvious:


It’s white women who ignore trumps misogyny. It’s poor conservatives who vote against their own interests to feel good about their whiteness once again. 


It’s Black voters in swing states who once again didn’t show up en-masse like they did for Obama. It’s that darned electoral college system which we NEVER get around to abolishing.


It’s the Russians who’ve hijacked our elections! It’s all of the Black folk secretly in league with 45. (That last one is kinda laughable, but it’s successfully put out there when anyone questions the system itself).


They used to do that in the mid 20th century as well. If you wanted to unionize, you weren’t really an American but a commie pinko etc. and we fall for it every time.


So not only can the outcome be predicted, commonsense tells us the excuses that will be made for it and what will happen when we question these lame, predictable narratives. If only we’d listen.


It’s like there’s some sort of spell preventing folk from seeing the obvious. Either we break the spell or the spell breaks us.


Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.

ON REPARATIONS

Never banter with white folk about reparations. It’s like arguing with your boss about wages they haven’t paid you. The only acceptable answer, whether they can give it or not, is “Yeah… You right!” Anything less from them is pure toxicity.

Rigged Legal System

Search words: Rigged Legal System, Gauntlet of oppression, racial profiling throughout  Years ago on jury duty, I was asked to render a ‘fair and impartial’ judgement regarding a young Black man accused of possession on the Upper East Side. There were only two Black people on the jury, myself and another dude. After a very long time, we ended up finding the defendant guilty. That’s the end of the story but not the narrative. The twelve main things I came to realize: 1. Several Black potential jurors were citing a mantra about their unwillingness to participate in a prejudiced judicial system. It was my first time hearing it but should I be called again, I’ll google it and voice my objection in the same way. 2. The suspect was stopped for a broken taillight, but as his wife said when she examined their car at the station, the light was never broken. 3. The white judge, however, ruled that the bust was still legit even though he was clearly stopped for drivin...

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE

WHOEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE NARRATIVE White cops NEVER leak to the press that they’re now investigating specific members (by name) of the Aryan Brotherhood. When it’s them, the investigation is ALWAYS ongoing. But when it’s us, they ‘leak’ that Sandra was ‘suicidal’, Cyntoia and Mike Brown and Marissa Alexander were ‘no Angels’, Korryn was ‘unstable’, King was a philanderer, Trayvon engaged in ground n pound because he watched ultimate fighting on tv (or how the media runs with his dad saying that the blood-curdling scream heard on the 911 call of a neighbor was NOT his son. The last time we heard our son give a piercing scream was when he was slightly colicky at 3months old!). Or it was leaked that grandma Eleanor Bumpers came at the armed and armored cops with a kitchen knife so they had to shoot during the no-knock raid on the wrong home. Or the leak that Sean Bell shot at cops first on eve before his wedding day. Or the leak that Tawana Brawley did...
