Quick question

If someone is born from an Afro-Latin mother and a Black father, how exactly is the child “bi-racial”?

mysharona1987:

So, a few months ago, I made up a rumor, placed it on a board, and forgot about it.

I was going through my things and read a document I made up about some dead guy coming back to claim some position.

I thought it was funny… until I realized something… that some people ran with that.

Well… *deletes document* I may or may not be responsible for something on a grand scale and I am not sorry.

“The Rittenhouse Case IS NOT About White Supremacy” - Here’s why it is…

The reason you don’t understand “White supremacy” is because you look at things without racial context. So of course, it wouldn’t make sense to you and it’s easy to go into a debate about the merits and the exact law vs. wondering why it’s a feature of the system and when you don’t question it, you’re actually defending it.

When you add a racial element into it, it alters the perspective so drastically that the outcome of actions when compared to the exact circumstances to another case will never actually take place.

Here’s an example; there is no true point-to-point comparison with Rittenhouse because if anyone other than a White person was in that same situation, they would be eliminated by the time they got to the protest, thus rendering the point moot. The law (via police intervention or otherwise) has done its job.

Would the police hesitate to shoot an armed Black man? They shot many Black people who were unarmed. Would the same Black person, if captured alive, will then get a trial? Even in death, the case wouldn’t be about the merits, it would be about their entire life.

White supremacy is a system that says “as long as you’re White, you’re get a trial that will uphold our values. All others will be lucky to get respect as a human being”

Re: “I Am So Shocked” - White people about Rittenhouse’s verdict

To all the White people… at least the ones that are shocked by the verdict, I got a quick reality check for you.

You’re not shocked. You have selected memory. There are so many cases of White privilege that you shouldn’t be surprised anymore.

“The system failed-” no, it didn’t. It worked out exactly as planned. You had an obviously biased judge presiding over the case. The judge messed with the case to soften the tone.

I wish I can say “if it was a Black boy…” but you know the outcome. You know it’s not going to be the same. There wouldn’t even be a trial. He would just have been dead. And if there is a trial, it wouldn’t be about the death, but the boy’s life.

But sadly… “it’s not about race. The victims were White. He was threatened by someone pointing their gun at him. The case wasn’t about him crossing the state lines, or him having ownership of the gun. The case was about the fact that the boy felt threatened for his life!” - as much as I hate to see this, this is what the main point of the case was. And because it’s all about this… not the state crossing, or the assault rifle and decided to take manners into his own hands to protect a neighborhood that he didn’t even belong to. And the reason that the case was all about that one point is because the law is set up so that you can only debate THIS manner.

The system works the way it’s supposed to. Stop being shocked. We knew it was going to happen because people can bend the law to suit their needs. And if the person is dead? “Dead men tell no tales”

Saying you’re “shocked” is an insult.

…

I am not showing this to hear/read “this is what happens when you demand a living wage”. Matter of fact, I’m preempting that argument. Capitalism have always favor lower cost of operations to maximum profits.

So, instead of the argument of “this will put jobs in jeopardy”, I want to see something else. Like… what jobs are supposed to be left so that there’s meaningful work? Because honestly, let’s face it.

Jobs, like this, serves people directly and soon, they will be automated in one way or another. College education doesn’t automatically mean you’ll be employed in the field you’re trained for, unless it’s specialized, and even then, that requires years of experience. The term “essential workers”, which became important during the pandemic, is now a running joke. Because as important as “essential workers” are, we were also at risk of being exposed to COVID-19. Yet, essential workers didn’t deserve a livable wage according to people who think of jobs, such as this, is meaningless or “it’s too easy” or “meant to build character” or “get real skills”.

Now, I’m not saying robots will be replacing every single facet of our lives. But the main issue is… it’s coming. It’s going to start. Some jobs are going to be replaced or become outdated. So, you might as well start laying down the groundwork because automation is coming. There is no meaningful work out there. The current model is dated and the people who loses the most are the ones who aren’t prepared.

Hello.

I’m in the middle of… let’s say an intrapersonal crisis and will pick fights with anyone brave enough to interact with old posts.

Currently looking for someone who can help me with the internal conflict.

Until then, if you decide to write something on my personal posts, prepare to be handled with full on obscenities.

This isn’t my usual mode of communication, but now, it’s better than self-deletion.

Every white person who ever said something bad, foul and such, especially when I was attacked by the cops six months ago…

You guys owe me.

$nufuturepro is my cash app.

I also accept bitcoins. Any amount will do.

Nah. Work for your own money.

I’m a bloody FREELANCER who was INJURED WHILE DOING MY JOB.

I changed my blogging name to stop being harassed by y'all because no matter how many times I try to educate and debate, y'all like flipping cockroaches.

So yes… for setting an example of how Jan 6th will forever be defined as a case study for how “justice is colorblind”. For all the times I gotta defend myself for MY story to the point that I have been gaslighted… f*ck you, pay me.

Did you conjure up my blog post from months ago and think I wouldn’t clap back, you dumb f*ck?

I wasn’t aware of how long ago this was posted nor do I care to ponder on such. Pft.

Sorry about your injuries and all. Hope you heal. As for the money entitlement, I have nothing empathetic to say there. I bid you good day and wish you happiness. Something money can’t buy.

It will cost you free.99 to fuck off.

Ngl this is kinda hilarious

Makes sense. I mean, a passenger of a cruise line isn’t called a sailor, right? Astronaut literally means “star sailor.”

OP how could you not include the first paragraph of the article

Huge oversight on my part you’re absolutely right

Our favorite historian, Carol Anderson, dropped in to talk about anti-blackness, “being colorblind” and her new book, The Second: Race and Guns in a Fatally Unequal America. Get the book (here) — it’s a great read!

Professor Anderson dropped some 💎gems💎! Oh, and before you leave don’t forget to do your homework, Class. See you in the comments!
