I figured all the race-baiting by the Democrats and the blame laid on the police and everyone else for George Floyd’s death due to American being “systemically racist” earned them a little reminder from one of their own. Enjoy!
Don Lemon’s five things to think about within the black community
Like the video from Election Night 2016, this never gets old.

3) Respect where you live. Sounds a lot like “Clean up your room.” Jordan Peterson strikes again.
1) Pull up your pants. Sounds like Jordan Peterson advice.
JP gives some great advice. Somewhat familiar with him. This clip happened to predate his book.
0) He’s wrong–we should be talking about crime in the black community. Either Black Lives Matter, or they don’t. You can’t single out the Adam Toledo’s and Duante Wrights of the world without addressing why they were interacting with police in the first place and why it is acceptable that hundreds of black people die in Chicago every year killed by other blacks.
What frustrates me and completely turns me off as far as sympathy are the following two things:
1) The minute anyone of any other color tries to even suggest much less solve the problems in the black community (a term which they’ve chosen to use to segregate themselves), they’re a “racist.” How dare we point out the obvious and try to solve it as their fellow Americans.
2) No one seems to have the guts to point out the obvious fact that due to such problems in the black community, black criminals commit more crime including assaulting more people of other races than anyone else versus the other way around BY FAR.
Instead, the black community (exclusive of black conservatives such as Thomas Sowell, Larry Elder and Candace Owens) ignores this problem, which is insulting enough. But then the Joy Reid’s and Al Sharpton’s of the world want to go around blaming everyone else for their problems insisting that slavery, white privilege, systemic racism or the fact that it’s Tuesday are reasons they can’t succeed and we should all continue to bend over backward to help them and forever flagellate ourselves as a nation for slavery.
The facts that hundreds of thousand of white Americans (using their privilege, of course) died to end slavery, millions of Americans have stepped aside over the years to offer blacks first dibs on jobs, government contracts and spots at our prime universities, and Americans have spent untold billions on welfare, public housing, Section 8 housing, Medicaid and public schools never seem to come up in their demands for “reparations.”
Furthermore, as they perpetuate their systemic racism lie, they are handicapping millions of black youths by telling them their race can be used as an excuse for their failures in life.
It’s just toxic all around.
I really don’t even want to have this conversation. Their blame game is stupid and unproductive, but it’s all they have. Now though, they’re reaching even further into America’s pocket with their demand for “equity,” trying to move the goalposts after we’ve given everyone equal opportunity. Now they want to further insult everyone who has ALREADY HELPED and justify taking from everyone else to ensure equal outcomes while guilting a new young generation of white Americans into submission.
Anyone who disagrees is, of a course, a raging racist.
Well screw that. They forced us to learn the history including the fact that there was no party switch and that the Democrats are the party of racism then and now. So we’ll have an honest conversation about race, but it’s going to include the fact that by and large I in a major city don’t need to worry about anyone else assaulting me but black youths, something which has happened twice.

FUN FACT: MLK, Jr. (a Republican) used to blame slavery too as the reason blacks hadn’t succeeded, which is complete b.s.
The first black members of Congress from the South were Republicans…
Hiram Rhodes Revels (first black member of the Senate and served for the state of Mississippi) and Joseph Hayne Rainey (first black member of all of Congress and served South Carolina in the House of Representatives). You guessed it…BOTH REPUBLICANS. In fact, Rainey was born enslaved. Someone should have told him that the legacy of slavery was inescapable.

What has amazed me in all of this are the comments from Valerie Jarrett, Lebron James, Robert Reich, et. al. that show that Black Lives don’t Matter to them. If Ma’Khia had stabbed pink girl, we would have never heard about it. Just another black-on-black murder, also known as another day in Chicago or Baltimore. But when a Black Life (pink girl) Matters to the police, enough to protect her from an attempted murderer, these idiots are outraged.
So tell me, you intellectual midgets–in this situation, who did the Black Life (pink girl) Matter more to, the cop that protected her, or you who would have preferred to see her stabbed to death?
My primary reason for posting this was to have a little fun pointing out their hypocrisy. This was from 2013 before Obummer’s America-hating, race-baiting, identity politics agenda fully took hold. Even Obammunist himself at one point cited how much more likely it is for a black child to end up on drugs, in prison, dropping out of school, etc. without a father.
None of what they say makes sense. Anyone spewing their systemic racism crap is either stupid, uninformed, naive, evil or a combination of those four. It’s been hashed and rehashed so many times that it’s now apparent to anyone not in their cult that this is a blatant power grab. They stole the election. What’s to prevent them from going further?
The focus on race is just a distraction. This has NOTHING to do with solving the problems of “systemic racism.” It has EVERYTHING to do with Ovomit round 2.0 and the communist/Marxist Democrats wanting to fundamentally transform this country along with their corporate pals.
The Democrats and globalists are COMMUNISTS/MARXISTS in bed with China who want us to be like China so the globalists can control us. Who do you think gave BLM over $10 billion from May to December of 2020 (not the $90 million the Tides Foundation—more communists who have infested our corporate board rooms—said they received in 2020)?
“Vastly larger promises and sums followed as employee and corporate donors, as well as rich individuals, joined the gift-giving. Donations to BLM-related causes since May were $10.6bn. Exact sums received will be known when the central body overseeing BLM spending publishes its finances (confusingly it relies on another entity, a “fiscal sponsor”, the Tides Foundation, to oversee its books).”

They have NO INTEREST IN DISCUSSION. They have NO INTEREST IN SOLVING PROBLEMS such as not recycling bad police. They have EVERY INTEREST IN “REIMAGINING” institutions like policing, a term they use all the time. It originated with Marxist critical theory, and in their brainwashed minds, nothing is more important than serving the collective by tearing down the whole system and replacing it with their “utopia” staffed by their stormtroopers. Problem is they have no ideas, and what their leaders really want is a country with no police, government control through the military and a disarmed population. It’s as plain as day.
REJECT EVERYTHING THEY HAVE TO SAY OUT OF HAND. ***THEY ARE LYING!!!***
Here is Obammunist’s premature tweet decrying the Daunte Wright shooting as yet another racist attack by police. Ovomit isn’t that stupid. He and his globalist, communist pals have an agenda. He stirs the pot by race-baiting or victim-championing at every opportunity. Here he is tweeting that we need to “reimagine” (i.e., destroy) policing.

The communist Democrats need to be expelled from government for treason. People need to wake up. The virtue signalers are just the useful idiots described by Lenin.

We know that to be a fact, and don’t need to leave the state of Ohio to prove it. 13 y/o kills 13 y/o in Cincinnati a day or two before the Columbus righteous shoot.
Here’s something that seems to be lost on all rational individuals:
According to the leftist idiots, this commentary never happened, because it contradicts the current narrative. The current narrative is based in constant race baiting and division. The “trash” of which he spoke, both actual and figurative, is constantly being spread by these morons.
Frankly, I’m surprised that the little fascists that are the Democrats haven’t rooted out every copy of this and destroyed it in the name of, you know, social justice. Lol.
I’ve also stopped using the word narrative instead calling systemic racism what it is…one big fat lie.
This is all being done in the greater context of an attempted takeover of the West by globalist communists represented by the CCP who already controls a certain number of our politicians including Biden. The Great Reset is just their putting lipstick on the pig of a communist world with no upward mobility where we will own nothing and be completely dependent on the government. The “own nothing” part they come out and say.
They’ve been at it in the U.S. for almost 100 years. BLM has ties to the CCP through Minnesota and San Francisco.

Thanks, but I must quibble on one detail:
While I wholeheartedly agree that the narrative is “one big fat lie”, I refuse to limit my vocabulary to appease the opposition.
