What Color Are You? Tackling The Touchy Race Topic


Let’s talk about Racism. Yes, I'm going there.








If you’ve ever heard the expression “soft bigotry of lowered expectations” it goes into the little bit that I added to the definition of racism. Some feel that blacks deserve perks as reparations for the past or to make up for something. Affirmative Action itself and other politically correct actions are soft racism. In fact, talented non-white persons do not like Affirmative Action. They don’t want people thinking that they did not earn their way to their job or what not. Prior to Obama, most people, black, brown and white alike, feel that this country was the least racist ever. Most people didn’t really think about race. Your friends were just your friends. If one of your friends were black or latino, it barely even registered for most people.

Now, it’s been pushed out to the consciousness of most people’s minds. According to the social justice types, racism has just come out of all of these people who were always secretly racist. I would argue that it’s a response to what the political left is doing. For example, as a white person, I am accused of being racist. So now when I am watching a youtuber who isn’t white, I find myself thinking, “see, I’m not racist, I’m watching this youtuber.” I hate that I think this, because to me, this is almost a soft bigotry. The fact remains that I would watch them with or without a society accusing me of being racist for being white. Nevertheless, the least racist approach would be if society stopped obsessing about it and let it drop from people’s consciousness. Instead, it continues to be on so many forms we fill out and the hard left continues to push everyone into racial categories instead of just letting people be.

When I was in the Army, we had an expression, “we all bleed green.” Well, for crying out loud, let’s stop being black, brown and white. I am three colors myself. I am red, white and blue. Analytical Chick for a UNITED States of America.


UPDATE- I don't know when he said this but I just saw this meme with a Trump quote inline with what I say here. Who knows? Maybe the president of the United States was one of the 23 people who have read this blog post.

Obama's "accomplishments"

I saw this on FB. I know some are true because I remember them being in the papers. Disclaimer some might not be, if so, let me know in the comments. A LIST OF OBAMA’S ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: First President to apply for college aid as a foreign student, then deny he was a foreigner. First President to have a social security number from a state he has never lived in. First President to preside over a cut to the credit-rating of the United States. First President to violate the War Powers Act. First President to be held in contempt of court for illegally obstructing oil drilling in the Gulf of Mexico.

OP-ED: My Experience at the Rally Against Pro-Terror Anti-Semite Linda "Cockroach" Sarsour

Because I have been following politics, I heard about Linda Sarsour from a non-Jewish source. Tomi Lahren interviewed John Guandolo about Sarsour . I think it was back in January. I heard that she was tied to Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood. I knew that wasn't good for me, as a Jew. I occasionally heard her name come up again. Then one day I was looking through these political articles I read and there it was like a punch in the stomach. She had been elevated to unearned commencement speaker by my own CUNY. I graduated from a CUNY school. I live in New York City. "Here? Here? Not here!" I found myself saying sitting in front of my computer. I watched to see when my fellow moderate right wingers would be speaking up. I was ready to sign a petition, go to a protest. I was ready. Eventually, a protest was announced. I thought, "I'm sure it's on Saturday and I can't go." I looked at the calendar and got very excited, "A Thursday-YES." It did...

The Rally Against Pro-Terror Anti-Semite Linda Sarsour

Last Thursday, May 25th, a midtown east block was overtaken by a rally and two counter-protests. The primary event was a rally hoping to get CUNY to change their mind about the key-note invitation to Hijabi Muslim activist Linda Sarsour, who is said have ties to terrorist groups like Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. The two counter-protest groups were the Neturei Karta and the “NO!” group. The rally was organized by activist Pamela Geller, president of American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI).  She also served as the presenter to the speakers for the event. The first speaker was NYS assemblyman Dov Hikind. Hikind is an Orthodox Jew and Zionist whose district is located in predominantly Hasidic Orthodox Boro Park, Brooklyn. The next speaker was John Guandolo whose knowledge about Sharia and Islam comes from a military and law enforcement background. Egyptian-born, Nonie Darwish passionately spoke about how she escaped Sharia. When she said she did not want to live unde...
