Racism

Journal started Jul 2, 2006


Racism itself is a straw man, a contrived debate designed to distract us from what's really going on: war against the poor. White people who weren't born to dynasties of rich bastards have no or less chance of getting ahead than black or yellow or red people. Sure maybe if you only focus on the rich bastards, then among the wealthy elite skin color may make a difference. But who cares about the elite bastards? They should all get screwed over and brought down from their high horses anyway! Every time a "race war" breaks out, or every time there is "racially motivated" gang violence it makes me want to cry.

Because those gangs, those wars, are all killing people for entirely the wrong reason. They've been fooled by the propaganda of skin to redirect their anger away from the true problem: economic disparity, and instead get angry towards a fake problem: prejudice by people of one skin color or another. It's just like the war in Iraq was started to distract you from the largest rape of the USA citizenry's personal finances and freedom, and distract you it did. Similarly you'll spend hours debating the problem of how news announcers only mention a criminal's skin color if they're black, and will entirely forget whether that criminal was poor, drugged up and desperate, or rich and uncaring.
