Racism in America? The Democratic Party

If you are black in America, brown, yellow, or even white, and you have supported the debacle we have in Washington and some state governments that is called “the democratic party,” and if you buy into the Trump is a “White Supremacist” bull-squat, then you are an ignorant silent-follower. You are being played like a cheap fiddle by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and other leaders in the democratic party. It is as simple as that. Your ignorance about this nation and what is happening makes you not only a stupid fool, but a useful tool for the democratic party machine that is systematically, daily destroying America as we know it. They have been counting on your apathy and lack of courage to make change. To make matters worse, those liberal party leaders are also being played themselves by self-serving governments, such as China, and greedy power-mad billionaires such as George Soros, Bill Gates, and billionaire tech heiress Laurene Powell Jobs, a close friend and confidant of Kamala Harris.

We must get back to common sense and stop hating each other. We can no longer be pawns in this giant money-movers’ chess game. We must bond together, whether you are democrat, republican, libertarian, unaffiliated, or apolitical even. What do I mean by common sense? Let me ask you this: Very simply, can you tell me one time in the history of the world that any nation ever taxed itself into prosperity? Why is this answer always “No?” You will not find it in any legitimate historical account, because it has NEVER worked. . .  Never. Another question: Why does the New Testament mention Twelve Pearl gates into Heaven, and why did the Bible mention the gates and walls around New Jerusalem if boundaries are not important? The flood gates were opened to illegal, non-immunized or quarantined immigrants pouring across our southern border unabated and our Administration has given birth to this national travesty.

Many think that legendary genius Albert Einstein said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.” He never really said that, but the anonymous quote is still very true.

I used to say how did the Jewish people allow themselves to be moved in boxcars to the gas houses in Nazi Germany and be executed? Now, looking at what is happening around me I understand why. Tell me, what have you done about preventing the recent rash of attacks against Jews all over our nation and the world? I am a Christian and my Bible clearly told me that the Jewish people are “God’s chosen people.” Therefore, if I sit like a zombie seeing news stories and keep my mouth shut about it, I have only this question to ask: What is the bursting radius of a lightning bolt? I personally never want to find out.

How dare anybody of color call white people a racist if you keep your mouth shut about all the recent attacks by blacks on Jews and on Asian-Americans?

White guilt? If you are white and allow yourself to be put down because of slavery, as if you agree with it, then you are doubly stupid and even more responsible for the attacks on our democracy. I am a white conservative Christian heterosexual male and very proud of it. Does that make me a White Supremacist? Hell no! That makes me one of many in our nation who come from a long line of heroes who fought against slavery. My great, great grandfather, Andrew Jewell, risked his life to fight slavery in the Ohio National Guard in the Civil War.  I have actively fought against racism and discrimination my whole adult life and can cite numerous examples of actions that I am proud of.

Most whites in America nowadays are not racist at all. Our nation grew beyond that years ago. Critical Race Theory tries to convince people to believe that whites should hate ourselves and be apologetic because we are born racists. Those who support CRT are the real bigots in this nation. It propagates a ludicrous and false narrative. They are trying to brainwash our children, military, and all others, such as workers and corporate America, with a complete fabrication and national self-destructive horror story. Instead, our children should be taught how to read, write, and love themselves and others, and our military should be told simply, “Thank you.” Those in labor and business and all others should be taught to appreciate our differences, not label and condemn each other.

Black Lives Matter, a money-grabbing democratic organization that has given hardly anything to the black community, aside from contributing to liberal politician’s campaign funds, and Antifa have burned many neighborhoods and numerous businesses to the ground in many cities (always with liberal mayors), and murdered a few, and beat many people, yet the democrats keep referring to these actions as “protests,” yet they call January 6  an “Insurrection.” Only one person was shot and that was by Capitol Police, and it was a white female veteran that day and there were no guns or fires in the Capitol that day. And the Capitol siege began twenty minutes before Donald Trump even appeared at the podium, and he did not advocate any violence anyway. That is on record no matter how the propaganda arm of the democratic party (Mainstream Media) wants to whitewash the picture.

George Floyd has been lionized as if he is some kind of national hero, and what happened to him truly was a damned shame. Disgraceful. However, this man and Dr. Martin Luther King should never even be mentioned in the same speech. Floyd was the victim of an unprofessional bully cop and a few backups who were afraid to call him down for his actions. Simple as that, but in real life, Floyd was a drug addict and dealer, and held a large caliber pistol against the stomach of a pregnant black woman whose home he and four friends had just invaded. Floyd told the frightened victim not to move or he would pull the trigger and kill her unborn child, let alone her as well, while his friends cleaned her house out of valuables. Floyd did hard time for that, and this guy is supposed to be a hero in the black community?  How naïve are you going to be?  

Black males are killed at a higher proportionate rate than whites, but that rate should be improved by better training and racial sensitivity for some police departments. However, far more black male victims, many times more, are being killed by other black males. When are you in the black community going to do something about this instead of sitting on your hands like wimps trying to blame law enforcement or “systemic racism,” which is a myth overall? This is all part of the overall divide-and-conquer strategy of the new democratic party with no thought or care about blacks or whites, only defeating republicans. The sad thing is that almost all of these murders occur in democratic-run cities, and if you are black and stay silent about it, you are a willing accomplice..

If you want to defund the police. Then when you have a home invasion, simply call Black Lives Matter and see if they come and save you, or maybe you can call Antifa. They might come if a few members are not in mommy and daddy’s basement playing video games.

I am a free man, and I absolutely refuse to be a slave to injustice and oppression of thoughts and ideas.  I refuse to kneel down before those who hold the sword of tyranny trying to force feed socialism, Marxism, and communism down my throat while slandering my family, friends, and me with racial epithets. Are you going to join me in my fight, or are “you just going to whistle Dixie?”
