The Olympics will never be the same. No longer will these games move the competitive needle. Hell, even the NFL and NBA are suffering big losses in viewership (stop with the excuses on why the numbers are down). Competition is frowned upon, UNLESS it’s the Oppression Olympics. But, what if I told you that all of the grandstanding that’s been taking place is fake? Would you be mad at me for saying that? In response, would you call me an idiot and post a long tweet about how much you “care”? Get over yourself.
This has been on my heart for a long while. I’m black. From the inner city. Have been through and seen a lot of things. The worst thing I’ve ever seen done to black people since I’ve been alive is the so called “white guilt era”. The enabling of weakness. The fake outrage. Certain groups of white people using black issues to further their sick agendas. Political worship. Closet racism. I can go on and on. It’s sickening. I know many people that agree, but that’s only in real life. On social media though? Well, it’s social media. It’s a cesspool of idiocy. Spoiled brats that want everything given to them. They believe they deserve everything to live a great life. Oh, how great it must be to actually believe that.
I was in line at a grocery store after Biden “won” the election. A white guy was standing behind me and said “Isn’t it great to finally get rid of that fascist?”. I told him I didn’t like Biden and I’m not a supporter. He looked upset, but didn’t fire back. He asked why I felt that way. Ok: Proximity to crime bill, numerous racist comments, clear disrespect to specific individuals during a Zoom call with people from a specific demographic, refusal to meet with a black “leader” until after the election, etc. I told him every reason. Even with all that, he told me that he feels we’ll be better off with Biden over Trump. I told him, “…. have you ever thought of yourself as a racist?”. He was shocked by my question. I told him that proposing things that YOU THINK will fix African American issues is problematic. You are not black and you do not know what it will take to “fix” black America.
So, how do you fix black America. 1) NO MORE HANDOUTS. 2) STOP PRETENDING TO CARE ABOUT BLACK LIVES. Whenever I saw a black Trump supporter, they were attacked by not only black people, but white people alike. So, you think it’s ok to attack a black Trump supporter because they don’t agree with you? So it really ISN’T about black lives. You only want to “help” black people that agree with YOUR ideals. Says a lot. It says that you’re a fake and a phony. You use black people to look like you’re a moral elite. Low key, you’re racist. It’s ok though, you can fix it. 3) Simply go to black communities and voluntarily clean up the neighborhoods. Propose programs that fix up broken down homes, repaint street lines/poles/etc., cut grass and plant trees. For all the people who scream “Black Lives Matter” I still haven’t seen a huge movement of good people going to those neighborhoods and tackling the problems head on. 4) Provide tax breaks and loan forgiveness for black, first time black entrepreneurs. We actually had a pretty good plan in place but…. never mind. The white people that like to control black people will get mad if I finish that statement. They’ll probably get me banned like everyone else.
Fin. Just needed to vent. Any typos will remain.
Until next time.
