Voting!... Against Your Own Self Interests.

We all know that Republicans took Congress, right? Well since then, they've been making many proposals to cut welfare benefits for those whom are poor. Missouri was one of the states to make a 15 month cut to welfare benefits.  They also want to ban poor people from eating steak and seafood. And Kansas had thoughts of them using their aid to gain access to public swimming pools, psychics, and tattoo services.

I saw this video that brought up how the residents of Owsley County, Kentucky  which is known for being the Food Stamp Capital of America have voted for the welfare cuts.

Here's the video:



The funny thing about this is... when they balk about the change for THEM, their neighbors will say, "At least you're not a nigger."  And the first person will agree.

And they will blame Black people for it.

They're probably going to blame Obama for this because (according to a lot of conservatives) Obama made the country more racist. They will reference this event as the outcome of the country being "Obama's America."

Now as far as blaming Obama goes, well, the reason America has become MORE racist after Obama became president is because the racists can't stand the idea that Obama is in that chair. In fact, the citizens spent a lot of time talking shit about him, making shooting targets of him, threatened to kill him, called him an 'uppity nigger' in so many words, and cursed him out all the way through both terms. In fact, they said Obama was Hitler, and that Obama's America was going to be crazy, when in actuality, all Obama did was sit down in the chair. They didn't like him in the chair, so they bucked against everything he did. They even talked big shit on his wife.

I suspect that exposed racism and hatred was exactly what the Obama haters were afraid of. They would be unable to control themselves now that "Obummer" (their words, not mine) is in that chair. They wanted him to go along to get along, which is expected of any Black politician. Even when he won fair and square, people were saying that the Blacks and the so called "Illegals" (their words again) swayed the election when in actuality, Black people only make up about 13 percent of the population, and many of them are incarcerated. Incarcerated people don't get the right to vote. Illegal people don't get that right either, so they can't say its possible the victory happened solely due to this particular subset of people.


I digress. I wonder if anybody has told them about this thinking. I wonder if anybody has ever let them know how ridiculous they sound when they complain about how this country is going down the drain ever since Barak became president. I suspect nobody has done it. But then again, I suspect if someone did bring this to their attention, they'd have to be White because honestly, some of them have prejudices so thick that a Black person mentioning anything important is just... well, a talking nigger. Oh well. I won't be the one telling them because no matter what, they'll still think what they want to think. 
And later they will both complain about their children being hungry.  But hey, you get what you vote for according to the mantra that Black folks have been told all of these years due to low Black voter turnout. 

Meanwhile when Black people actually turn out to vote, republicans call it disgusting. 

Go figure.

"Black rights activist says drone strikes make Obama a 'Global Zimmerman' "... Wait..What?!

I have seen this article and all I can say is, "Is he serious with that?!"  Normally Dr. Cornel West is that dude, but he is tripping really hard for this. For the record, I am not a fan of these drone strikes. I think the idea is horrible, and I can't help but think Obama is just a face on an agenda that was going to take shape regardless whether he won the election or not. Anyway, that being said Dr. West is completely wrong for that. This country has been snooping and hiding in fear of other countries for years. Never mind the North American army bases that sit in foreign countries. Never mind the planes, the ships, the jets, helicopters, the FBI and CIA and various other secret agencies North America has to offer who are in and out of other countries. Never mind accusing other countries are harboring "weapons of mass destruction". Never mind worrying about whether or not a country (who the US federal government may be afraid of ) has nuclear weapons, and where the weapons are pointed. Never mind how America enters other countries under the guise of economic development, when they are really exploiting the people and setting up infrastructures that allow them to pollute and destroy the environment. Never mind how North America meddles in wars that have nothing (absolutely nothing) to do with them. Never mind the fact that Jim Crow laws effectively policed a section of citizens all across the United States (Don't act like it was only the south's doing. The rest of the states are guilty as hell for it as well, they just had different names for each law.  Google "Sundown Laws" followed by the name of your state to see what I'm talking about). America has been a "Global Zimmerman for a very long time now".

Stop acting brand new. This shit was done waaaay before the Obama Administration. Get the Fuck outta here with that!
