Notes from the Under Dog L.'s avatar

The worst offenders are white people who demonize other white people as "racist" if they so much as dare speak the crime rates in the black population -- among other issues that are the true causes of "inequality."

I learned long ago that putting people of color in positions of power was -- unfortunately -- going to wreak havoc on law and order.

See my essay: "A Buck-Fifty: A Lesson in Race Relations" in which a black student was threatening other students in my class -- the white ones in particular -- and the POC admin just SHOOK THEIR HEADS AND SAID THAT HE HAD A RIGHT TO AN EDUCATION.

What "racist" means in Black American parlance is that "white supremacist" law against killing other people, selling drugs, speeding, etc...

These people seem to believe that they should be allowed to run amok without any consequences. Pushing back on the criminality is "racist."

Dog, I remember the first time i saw a clip of a white kid being told to check your privilege. My immediately reaction was uh oh, this is the future of racism and the white kiddies will fold like a lawn chair. Hearing an executive making millions lament their privilege was puke worthy because they never ever gave it up and in fact used it to benefit their own kids.

Privilege etc led to full on dei and now two sets of rules re violence. Are you following the murder trial in the Dallas area ( black kid stabbed white kid in chest). Its OJ redux but in Texas

Yes, following that; I saw all of this coming well before Floyd since I work in a progressive university (is that redundant?)

I have an essay in the works on the issue of whites demonizing other whites. One salient moment came in 2020 when a friend whose parents gave her the down payment for her coop (among other subsidies) informed me (who always ordered the cheapest item on the menu, which I could barely afford while working three jobs) that I wasn't down with intersectionality because I 'don't want to lose my privilege' -- LIKE SHE DID?

I've barely made my own way all my life -- imagine being told by a spoiled white brat that I don't want to lose my "privilege."

Looking forward to your article. Sounds like you know a lot of AWFLs

Should be an excellent read Dog, please share it with the Jotting in Purple community when it’s published.

All good points Dog, as I know you are on the front lines of this culture war.

Watching from afar, it makes me sick.

in a sane, self-respecting nation, all of these self-abasing fools who "took the knee" should have been kicked in the face, pissed on and then trampled into the mud and filth. Not one should have been permitted to remain in any sort of power. They should have been laughed at, mocked, ridiculed and banished from public discourse. Pathetic poseurs and pussies. I cannot despise them enough.

When the Collin Kaepernick fiasco hit, that is when I dropped the NFL. Let me know when you plan to kick those taking the knee in the face, I’ll be happy to join you.

Pathetic poseurs and pussies. Positively and precisely poetic and perfect

The bubbling outrage I had in 1997 when the Blair creature, for political gain, proposed (and enacted in office as P.M.) during his abominable election campaign and co-opting the spiteful 'snow-drop' campaign for a complete ban on all legally-held highly-regulated/licensed handguns (sporting use only) from 57,000 innocent law-abiding owners is nothing compared with the growing outrage for the creature's stealthy globalist/communist revolution in Britain that has lead to this despicable and outrageous 'DEI' police action at the murder of poor Henry Nowac let alone the underlying causes for his murder by a 'person of colour' attempting the woke/communist 'get-out-of-jail-free' card of 'rayyyyycism, When will this transformation of Britain to a proto Soviet-Union be toppled and how can anyone believe shameless and blatant liars such as Starmer and the Mastermind genius David Lamy who routinely spouts the most ludicrous double-think. Has the English population become so indoctrinated or complacent that so many will vote for the glaringly opportunistic Pakistani rape gang blind communist liar - 'cuddly' Andy Burnham - in the coming by election? I await the election result to give me hope or complete despair for a Britain I no longer recognise.

Nothing will change until Lammy and his fellow travelers are hung upside down like Mussolini and his goumade, spat upon and left as graphic reminders of the price of treason.

The Nowak case is a black and white case as it can be. Lies, lies, and more lies. It seems to me that we are seeing the results of long term Marxist/Islamist indoctrination all fueled by power/money.

Plain old middle-class people were aghast at the chaos and destruction and sheer awful noise of the George Floyd summer here in Brooklyn.

But for my better-off neighbors with their yard signs, some still up -- Coexist!, Black Lives Matter, In This House We Believe -- I can think only, Who are these people? What suburban La-la-land spawned them, and now they're here in their recently bought expensive homes cheering on our city's worst elements?

I had some progressives in my neighborhood post similar signs.

It was really good to know who hides behind those facades.

There is also this connection. BLM was formed in 2014, activists that branched off from the Antisemitic Nation of Islam, home of Farrakhan. BLM supports the Antisemitic BDS movement, boycott, divest and sanction of one county only, Israel. BDS leader Omar Barghouti acknowledges that the goal of the BDS is to destroy Israel. Patrisse Cullors, one of the founders of the Black Lives Matter movement, admitted on CNN, Jake Tapper's show, that they are “trained Marxists” Cullors: “We Are Super-Versed On Marxists Ideological Theories”. BLM Leader Yusra Khogali: "White People Are Genetic Defects".

Perhaps Nowak will be the straw that breaks the migrant loving labour backs. Or not.

''news sources such as The Grauniad'' ... How many times have I told you not to use oxymorons Daniel? You'll be saying Baby Owen is a credible journalist next! ;o)

''In 2020, British politicians joined in. 𝖪̶𝖾̶𝗂̶𝗋̶ Starmer and 𝖠̶𝗇̶𝗀̶𝖾̶𝗅̶𝖺̶ Rayner knelt for BLM.''

And stop doing that as well! It boils my piss! :op
