On Gossip and Money

I wanted to write about something from a different angle.  I decided I'd tackle gossip and money and how it relates to racism. See, everybody in America comes in contact with  some form of media everyday be it TV, social media, magazine, advertisement,etc.  We have an idea of the purpose of media and how it works. We know the mainstream media outlets can be very bad, especially if you're Black in America. Black people  know the media is racist, but we don't really understand what the point of racism is and how it affects us, and why. I've gone in extensively on the blog regarding supremacy and how it's tied to respectability politics. Now I'm going to tie it in with gossip and money.

Take a look at this story, and watch the video.



This video has over two million views. I won't lie. I watched it too. But I noticed two things about videos like this:  The first thing is the fact that many people will see this and say disparaging things about her because of her presentation. Some people will turn her into a joke.  In fact,this could be why the video has over two million views in the first place. I used to see videos like these and get mad because they serve as joke material for people who express anti black sentiments. Then a light came on and I figured the following:

The people running all forms of mainstream American media are like children on the playground when it comes to Black people. It's like little kids pointing and laughing while huddled around a crude drawing of a penis. The crude penis drawing (which is represented by what they think Black people are) gets televised.   If you include money, then this is what the masses will get to see. And that's what gets them laughing.That's why things like that video become highly publicized "stories" . It's the same reason why videos designed to highlight so called 'negative characteristics' in Black people are just gossip dipped in money. That is their main focus. It could also explain why any time a Black person is put in the media for all to see, there will always be racist comments for viewing purposes at the end of the article or video.

This is also the same reason why WorldStarHipHop exists. The person who created it knew what the people want to see, and they wanted to monetize it. And unfortunately, a lot of Black people bought into it (there's that supremacy again!).


But the second thing I noticed was that the effect of this video is also the exact opposite of the first:

The woman in the video speaks like she's cool with everybody and anybody. She isn't afraid to be herself. So many people are afraid to be themselves, and that's why respectability politics exist. I can respect her for her candid-ness.  I can respect anybody who can present themselves as they are regardless of who is in front of them. 

So I'm glad I got to see the video. It gave me a chance to write this blog and shine some unpredictable light on mainstream American media and what they're trying to do. 

So if you're tired of negative images of Black people in the media, our only choice is to change our perspective so it doesn't match theirs, question mainstream media's motives, create and/or support our own media outlets designed to mold our own great narrative as a people, and keep it moving.

On the Charleston Shooting Aftermath

I'm hearing a lot of stuff after this mess happened. People are trying to play ally as if they actually cared. Here's what I have to say about it:

For those who say that "we're all human" and "we're all equal" rhetoric:

If we're so "equal" and "human" why do we get killed because of racist people? Why do we have to deal with racist tendencies just for existing? Why do you think WE (Black people) are the ones who have to "confront racism" when we aren't the ones acting like damn fools whenever Black people dare to fuck up their lily White atmospheres at any given moment in time? Why do you tell Black people to practice love, throw out some bible verse, or start talking about praying in order to quell or scare, or silence our grievances?

Confronting racism is White people's work. Not Black people's.
Black people: Stop trying to side with these liberal fools. They'll turn on you and smile as they do it. Pay attention and watch how they move.

White people (and any folks who fit) : Stop asking Black people about how to confront racism. After all, we aren't the ones dishing it out.

PSA: to all White people who feel slighted by what I just said:
Racists are using you as a target to hide behind. Are you willing to let them do that to you in order to hold on to your job, your money, your friends, your family, your so called livelihood? Because that's what you're doing.

Let this be known. I have had a lot of practice in losing. I lost family when I was very small. I lost family just because I was born.
I know what it's like to be truly alone in this world. I'm not talking about being around friends/family, etc and feeling lonely.
I'm talking being completely solitary. I'm talking about not talking to people I lived with for years at a time. I'm talking about not talking to people even though we shared a room, clothes and a bed.
I'm talking about going to school and not saying shit the entire day. For weeks at a time. I'm talking about walking the halls while muting out all sounds just to fight back tears. And then going home and not saying shit to anybody unless they say something to me first. And doing the same thing while working. I did that for eleven years back to back, starting from aged 6.

So if I could face the world while dealing with all of what I dealt with (without going into too much detail) , then you could stand to walk using your own two feet without standing on the backs of other people. You can be accountable without throwing other people under the bus and coming up with elaborate excuses to justify shitty behavior by people who look like you.

But I'm wasting time writing this because whenever Black people talk, we're just talking niggers to these people. That's why if we speak "proper" (which really translates to above fifth grade American English), it's noted that we "speak so well", but nothing actually sinks into the mind of the person we're "speaking at". If we're eloquent, THEN we're "articulate and smart" but still, nothing sinks in. If we offer suggestions or ask questions while at work, we're contrarians and we aren't team players because nothing sinks in.

White people, fix your shit. It isn't up to Black people to do that. That's YOUR fucking house. This ain't "The Help" nor is it "The Butler". I'm not here for making you feel all warm and fuzzy. Seek that out in your partner. I'm not here to mentally jack you off, nor do I seek that in you.

This will be the only post I will make regarding this sort of thing in regards to White people and their peculiarities when it comes to dealing with Black people.

And American media needs to stop asking Black people to speak on what to do about racism. They're the spin doctors of this shit. How about stop spreading the ‪‎fuckery‬?! That's a basic ass solution. Stop asking Black people to play Blues Clues with your grown ig'nant asses.

America goes full retard all day, every day.
And anybody who wants to focus on feeling hurt after reading this can GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT BULLSHIT.

Ole cowardly, non executive decision making asses.

The "Race is a Social Construct" Movement




Let's start with the White NAACP Member who played Black.  Now I know the NAACP was actually founded by White people, so let's move on.  Aside from finding out who cosigned this, but not being surprised that she belongs to  the same group that gave Donald Stearling a Lifetime Achievement Award, I am baffled. Now, people will say she was a White ally. Some will say that she wanted to help so bad that it was the only way she could.  But the question I'd like to ask is Why did she feel the need to dress up in Black face and do something like that? She even went so far as to get black people to pose with her for photos so she could pass them off as family members. She invented a natural hair journey. She went to Howard University and she taught African Studies.  So I did some digging, and I decided to look into the situation where her parents revealed her ethnicity.  It looks like we have ourselves a con artist. And those who don't see why can GETTHEFUCKOUTTA HERE!  Here's Why:

Now there is this twitter movement called #WrongSkin that has popped up. It's also used in conjuction with the Transracial movement. This will be a mass diversion in order to keep people from recognizing real issues that have happened and continue to happen. This will be the reason that will justify any and all racist attitudes towards us. This is exactly why the media got people to pay attention to Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner and the transformation.




She will play the victim. People will say she was an ally. But if she were such an ally, why did she have to dress up? Not only that, she might have fabricated hate crimes in order to make the experience "more authentic".  




People will cling to the fact that the NAACP was started by Whites to justify her stance and supporters. This is not the first time something like this has happened. This idea has been brought to light in the past in order to solidify beliefs that American Black people are not who they say they are, and they use their skin color to "get by". That belief  has already been worked into the media.







This person is part of a big smear campaign.  They are looking for ways to derail and destroy the credibility of Black people.  This is proof that skin color still matters to Whites because she was able to do all of that in order to maintain the illusion that Blacks are using their skin color to get by.And by crying wolf (manufacturing hate crimes) is a good way to discredit racism since it has definitely encouraged it.  Also, the comparison of her with Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner  is an attempt to re-steer the social construct called "race" since they defined it in the first place.  Needless to say, they're trying to manipulate and change what race means, and keep it on their terms since the previous terms led to a huge blow to those efforts ever since people started figuring out how laws were passed to uphold the illusion of White supremacy.

On Accountability and Parenting

I'm sure you guys have heard about that youtube video called "Blatent Racism in Cheektowaga NY", also known as Racism is Alive and Well.  Basically an angry mother cusses out a Black guy and calls him a "N*gger " for startling her kids while they were in a parking lot.  Here's the video for those who may not want to click on the link:


After seeing this video, people want to ask me the following,  "If starting his car frightened her kids then why didn't he simply apologize and put the issue to rest?"

To them, I say GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE WITH THAT MESS!!!  Here's why:

She cussed him out. Why wasn't she watching her kids? Everybody knows that when you are in a parking lot with children, the children need to be near their parents. They need to be careful. Sure he started his car, but I hardly believe she needed to act the way she did. I bet all of that could have been avoided if she paid attention to what her kids were doing and where they were. Cars start and move in parking lots. If she was worried about the welfare of her children, she should teach them to be careful when walking in parking lots. It's a parking lot. There are cars. The atmosphere is very unpredictable. She shouldn't put the welfare of her children in someone else's hands. Those are HER kids. SHE is responsible for them. I get tired of people acting like the world is responsible for their offspring. This is a classic example of that kind of thinking.

See? This is why things are so messed up. People want to blame everything on everybody else and never ever take accountability for anything. It's to the point where people are blaming inanimate objects on a person's behavior.  It's straight up trash, careless and ugly, just like this person.

Come to find out, she's a stripper by the name of Janelle Ambrosia.  First off, why would you tell the world you are a stripper while around your children. I mean, work is work, but really though? She just opened up a can of worms for her children. The mothers of their friends are going to find out, and all of a sudden, they'll have NO playmates. The children are going to wonder why all of their friends are gone. And guess what? Mom will say something along the lines of " Well, you would have friends, but that N*GGER in the parking lot ruined all of that by his Youtube video".

As expected, the kids will grow to hate Black people because they 'took away our friends'. They wouldn't be able to understand that their mother was the one who killed all of their potential friendships by acting like a straight up idiot in public and on the internet. Everyone already knows what town she was in, all they have to do is connect the dots. Unfortunately, she was so high on herself that she forgot about what happens next.  She called her husband after the fiasco happened, and guess what? Maybe her husband could lose his job. I'm sure he'll not only be shamed for having a stripper as a wife while he is at work, but he could either get fired for her antics, meaning that she could jeopardize his place of employment since people have the ability of finding that out online, and blowing it waaaay up to the point where the company's brand could be at stake.  To make a long story short, this bitch is sacrificing her children and everybody around her so she could look 'good" in her eyes.

And we must not forget about that comment she made about stripping for cops.  Man oh man, did she throw her city under the bus. Now the cops are going to be looked at.  Will names of the cops pop up all of a sudden? Who knows, only time can tell. I'll keep this story on my radar in the mean time.

Oh, Hold up. I can't forget the fact she tried to redeem herself by saying that she had a Black cousin and that means she couldn't be racist.  She can GET THE FUCK ALL THE WAY OUTTA HERE WITH THAT RACIAL BODYGUARDING BULLSHIT.  Why do people feel the need to say things like that by putting another race in front of them in order to not appear racist? To be honest, anybody who believes this argument has to be incredibly ignorant. Just because you are or were tied to  a friend, cousin, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle, boyfriend, girlfriend, grandma, grandpa, etc who doesn't match your race doesn't automatically disqualify you as a racist. In fact, it seems that racists keep these "other" people around just in case they feel the need to downplay their racist diatribes or acts.  People are so preoccupied with trying to front about not being racist, that they are willing to stand their grown asses up and look incredibly stupid. I mean, they are sacrificing their intelligence just to appear not racist. All it does is make them look really racist, and not very smart. I mean, they are looking like some old people with the minds of very small children. And we all know the exact definition of that behavior equals.

FOX News says Santa is White: The Christmas Edition

I'm sure you have heard about this already, but according to Fox News, Santa is White, and so is Jesus.  Everyone was outraged, and it even prompted a teacher in New Mexico to tell a child that they couldn't come to school dressed as Santa because he is White, not Black (who received paid leave for the incident btw).

All I could think of is "Ovvv Course.  Fox News would say something this ignorant, so why are people truly upset?  This country has marketed a White Santa Clause from Day. ONE.  Jesus has been depicted as a blonde haired, blue eyed man in various forms of the media as well.  See, with Fox News, one could expect racist stuff like this to spew forth from their mouths. It is their rule of thumb to twist the viewers minds to fit their agenda. Their job is to tell the viewer what to think and how to act.  It's like getting dismayed when someone announces that water is wet.

And this teacher is straight up ignorant. So what if a kid wanted to wear a Santa hat and beard. He's just getting into the spirit while the magic is still in him.  Now thanks to this fool, the kid will remember when he was told that his race doesn't allow him to wear whatever he wanted. Good job Albuquerque! But waaaaiiiit. Christmas is a time of year for everyone to enjoy.  It isn't about race, it's about faaaamily.  Let's just be haaaapy!  <Get the fuck outta here with that mess.

But wait, let's pretend Santa is indeed "White" for a second.  This guy has the luxury of being able to travel around the world and delivers toys to children by climbing down the chimney, and makes appearances in all of the malls across America.  He lets them sit on his lap and he talks to them to see what they want for Christmas. He's doing a service for all of the kids by making sure they are happy, right?  He's rich enough to purchase all of those toys just so he can give them away (face it, you and I both know that Santa didn't have his elves make that PS4 or the NES you received when you were little). Let's look at this closely:

1. He likes children enough to ask them to sit on his lap so they can talk to him
2. He buys them gifts so they will like him
3. He enters your home through a chimney.

Now, I always thought there was something wrong with the idea of Santa:

First of all, that fat fuck is NOT going to get through anybody's chimney no matter how greasy he is. Second of all, why do parents hand their children to this strange man posing as a person who would bring them happiness. To me, this sounds like how pedophillia begins. And he wants the kids to sit on his lap?!  Really? Really.
Third, he gets into everybody's house while the kids are asleep, and then eats your food.  People know damn well they wouldn't want me coming up in their house, chilling and eating stuff, and then leaving something behind. This sounds like breaking and entering to me.  Now I'm not the brightest crayon in the box, but something tells me that I would get arrested and or shot if I did that.

So this guy has the privilege of:
1. Entering the homes of strangers and eating their food with no recourse
2. Allowing random children to sit on their laps while the parents allow it, again, with no recourse
3. Having enough money to buy gifts like that.
4. Traveling around the world

Last time I checked, if I bought a lot of gifts for kids, and made it known, folks would question where I got the money to do so.  But since "Santa" has money, and has the ability to do all of these things, it's okay.  Hell, I can't even go shopping for anything without White parents frantically warning and grabbing their children while telling them to stay close to their parents as soon as they see me coming.  They don't even want me thinking about speaking to their children, especially when they say something first.

Whoa...

Maybe Santa IS White for real, I mean he has all of this privilege that I couldn't dream of having even if I wanted it.

They can keep Santa and have him for themselves. If I had children, the last thing I'd want is them fantasizing about a gift giving pedofile.

Oh, if you are already familiar with my blog, you may have an inkling on how I feel about Jesus so I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

Whatever holiday you celebrate this time of year, I hope you have a good one.  As for me, I'm just waiting for this tragic ass year to be over.

That is all.
