Episode 622 – What a Disaster!

A verdict is reached in the Darrell Brooks murder trial.

John Fetterman debated Mehmet Oz for Senator of Pennsylvania and it turns out to be a disaster.

And it turns keeping kids out of schools for two years was a bad idea.

 

A Verdict is Reached!

Darrell Brooks, the 40-year-old Milwaukee man accused of plowing a Ford Escape SUV through a Christmas parade in nearby Waukesha last year, has been found guilty of all charges. Those charges include:

  • First degree intentional Homicide – 6 counts.
  • First Degree Recklessly Endangering Safety – 61
  • Hit and Run – 6
  • Bail-jumping – 2
  • Battery – 1

I watched a lot of this trial and it was just weird.

  • Brooks decided to defend himself.
  • He was thrown out of the court about seven times.
  • He objected to every question.
  • He argued that he was being charged by the state so he could not face his accuser.
  • He refused to wear his suit.
  • At one point, while in another courtroom because he was removed, he started stripping.
  • He refused to acknowledge his name.

The next stage will be the penalty phase. There is no death penalty in Wisconsin so he will spend the rest of his life in prison. This is the kind of guy that emphasizes why we need the death penalty.

How is This Even Close?

There were a bunch of debates. The one I did watch was between Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman. I thought this one would be the most entertaining because Fetterman is about as close to a walking vegetable as one can get.

I was right. The debate was entertaining.

Here, Fetterman is being asked about his stance on fracking.

Some things:

  • This is just a lie. He’s always been against fracking and has said it multiple times.
  • Notice the pause? He has an auditory processing issue. He read the question from a monitor and still couldn’t process an answer.
  • Does this sound like a guy who should be in the Senate?

Here he is being asked about raising minimum wage to $15.

What?

But it gets better. He was asked about why he was not paying his taxes. Basically because he was living off his rich parents well into his forties. But his none answer is funny.

Yes, I’m making fun of this man’s disability because he’s a jerk.

Got that?

Finally, here’s his closing statement.

That was the most understandable statement he made all night. It was that bad. During the entire campaign, anyone who pointed out that this guy has brain damage and should not be running for Senate is called an ablest. But that performance was so bad, even media can’t dig this guy out.

What’s amazing is this Fetterman has been talking like this every time he speaks and the race is still close. Mehmet Oz is that bad a candidate. I think Oz is going to win, but it is way too close for comfort.

 

So It Wasn’t a Good Idea

I guess shutting down schools for two years for a modified cold wasn’t a good idea.

According to the Daily Wire:

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is administered to fourth and eighth graders every few years, allowing for a comparison of reading and math proficiency by state between 2019 — just before the pandemic — and 2022. The decline in math scores was the sharpest ever since the test began in 1990, and the average math scores were the lowest since 2005. The average eighth grade reading score was the lowest since 1998.

Some things:

  • 43 of the 50 states have had math scores drop.
  • The map at the top of this article shows how badly the number of fourth-graders who scored at least “basic” in reading fell compared to before the pandemic in each state.
    • Basic is the lowest of the three tiers — basic, proficient, and advanced — and those who do not have even basic reading skills by fourth grade are at risk of serious problems when it comes to employment and higher education later in life.

Look at the maps for a better understanding.

Everything is Racist!

I was i Mexico this weekend and had some time to read the Washington Post editorial page. Wow, they really went out of their way this weekend. Amber Ferguson wrote an opinion piece called America has a Black sperm donor shortage. Black women are paying the price. I have to say, these people amaze me on what they can call racism.

This is a rather long article but I think you’ll get the idea in short order. Let’s get on with it.

Every night a little after 1 a.m., following her shift as a guard at a women’s prison, Reese Brooks would open her laptop, a second laptop, then her phone and a tablet, and begin scouring websites for sperm banks, opening dozens of tabs.

The websites offered hundreds of potential sperm donors, allowing Brooks to select for movie-star looks, height and hobbies, but when she filtered for Black or African American donors, her options swiftly dwindled.

Some things:

  • It’s amazing how people will do anything to avoid actually getting married and raising a family the old fashioned way.
  • I bet she can’t wait to tell her child that she paid to by sperm from a sperm bank and use a baster to get pregnant.
  • But that is another issue I’ll get into later.

The cryobanks gave Brooks a chance at motherhood, but they couldn’t provide what she wanted: a Black sperm donor who could give her a child who looked like her and shared her culture.

“I’d say I spent 40 hours a week looking for a donor. All together, I think I searched more than 800 hours,” Brooks said. But when it came to a Black donor, she said, the choices were slim to none.

Maybe should should have spent those 800 hours looking for a good man instead of the right characteristics she’s looking for. Is she saying there are no black men worth marrying?

Cryobanks reported that the number of Black women seeking their services to conceive rose sharply during the pandemic after increasing steadily over the years. Black women between the ages of 35 and 45 are far more likely to remain unmarried than women from other racial groups, according to the latest census data, with 44 percent of non-Hispanic Black women unmarried, compared with 16 percent of White women. Yet Black sperm donors represent just a fraction of available supply — fewer than 2 percent at the country’s four largest sperm banks, according to an analysis by The Washington Post.

The severe shortage is forcing Black women who need donor sperm into a painful choice: Choose a donor of another race and raise a biracial child or try to buy sperm from unregulated apps and online groups.

Or try to meet someone.

The reasons for the shortage are myriad: failure among cryobanks to recruit Black donors; a selection process that demands a three-generation medical history (which may be challenging for Black men who may not have access to quality health care) and excludes donors with felony convictions; mistrust of the medical profession by Black men because of a legacy of historical discrimination.

There it is. didn’t take long. Systemic racism.

It can’t be that black men just don’t want to jerk off into a cup.

The search for donor sperm usually takes place on a cryobank website where someone can browse profiles of available donors with limited personal and genetic information. Baby pictures of donors may be available for an additional fee.

On average, sperm is sold for $950-$1,300 per vial. Donors receive $70-$150 per donation. The cryobanks sell a fixed number of vials per donor to limit the number of children fathered by any one donor.

There are more than 20 cryobanks in the country, four of which have more than 100 donors. Among the four (California Cryobank, Fairfax Cryobank, Seattle Sperm Bank and Xytex) supply fluctuates, but as of Oct. 11, there were only 12 Black donors out of a total of 748. White and Asian donors are disproportionately represented, while Hispanic donors are also underrepresented.

This is where I have the problem with this article and the concept of sperm banks in general. This makes children a commodity not a human being. A lot of anti-abortionists are against this stuff and things like surrogate mothers. It basically makes children into cattle that can be sold. All this just to satisfy the desires of the woman. There is no thought to the quality of life of the child. No thoughts of what can become of a child that is born into a broken home or will have a father figure.

There is also another big question. Why not adopt? There are plenty of kids out there. Is it because she would not be seen as a suitable parent? Maybe her situation is not considered viable for a child? Why can’t cryobanks go through the same qualification process?

These are questions that are never asked in the article.

Of 15 women who talked to The Post, only one was able to buy sperm and conceive a child with a Black donor.

The Black women detailed fierce competition on cryobank websites for vials from Black donors, which, they say, typically sell out within minutes.

Angela Stepancic, a D.C. educator, recalled putting vials of sperm from a Black donor into her online shopping cart only to get beaten out by a sorority sister she was on the phone with who was faster to check out. Stepancic had a mixed-race child using sperm from a Latino donor.

At California Cryobank, the waiting list for an in-demand White donor is generally three months, according to Jaime Shamonki, the chief medical officer. The wait for a Black donor there can stretch as long as 18 months.

And women in their late 30s and 40s, who are facing diminishing fertility due to age, simply can’t wait.

“You know that if you get what you need, that means another sister won’t get what she needs if she wants a Black donor, too. I’m crying, fasting, praying and believing for a donor,” author Candice Benbow, 40, said. “I know she’s doing the same, but I need to buy as much as I can, pay my storage fee, and do what I need to do.”

Me, me, me. It’s all about what the chick wants.

Black women are predispositioned to other fertility hurdles. They face higher risks in conceiving and carrying a child. They are more likely to suffer uterine fibroids and other conditions that can compromise fertility and three times more likely than White women to die of a pregnancy-related cause.

And yet they are less likely to be referred to specialists than White women, said Michael Thomas, president-elect of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine.

“One of the biggest problems that we face as fertility doctors is not getting those patients in sooner. And we see the gynecologists sometimes dragging their feet in those referrals because they just assume that these patients are going to get pregnant on their own,” Thomas said. Some may believe, inaccurately, that Black women are hyperfertile, he explained.

Yes, the system hates black women. Wah, wah, wah.

The women all said they love their kids, but they regret their lack of options.

“When you are in this position, sometimes you have to take what you can get,” said Sandra Wiley, a caseworker in Chicago who had a daughter and a set of twins using sperm from a donor of Indian origin.

By February 2021, Reese Brooks had spent months on an increasingly desperate effort to conceive a child with sperm from a Black donor when she drove 2½ hours from her apartment in Newark, Del., to Fairfax Cryobank in Northern Virginia and picked up a 10-pound cryotank containing two vials of sperm from a 5-foot-10 Peruvian man who practices MMA fighting.

After spending $8,000 on three failed insemination procedures with sperm from a cryobank, Brooks had conceived in 2019 using sperm from a close friend who is Black. But she lost her son, Kemet, after she delivered prematurely at 24 weeks.

When Reese felt ready to try again, her friend was in a new relationship and didn’t feel comfortable being her donor.

Yeah, she loved her son. So much so, she had no problems going through it again even though she could lose another child. The ultimate in selffishness.

The story goes along, talking about this gal looking for another donor when she finally decided to forget getting a black donor. She finally got pregnant.

After Zurie was born in November 2021, Brooks, who was newly single, posted to her 49,000 followers on TikTok. She said she was shocked by the negative reaction to the video of her infant daughter.

“I got comments like, ‘Of course she’s mixed,’ and ‘You only wanted a light-skinned baby. You don’t like being Black,’ ” Brooks said.

She acknowledges that she and Zurie don’t look much alike.

“I am not going to raise her strictly in the African American culture because that’s not who she is,” Brooks said. “I’m learning as much as I can right now about Peruvian culture.”

She wants Zurie to have a sibling and hopes to purchase more vials from the same donor. “There’s so many good African American men out there,” Brooks said. “Maybe they just don’t know how much they’re needed to create families.”

The fact that she decided to display her child shows me something about this woman. She needs to show off her kid on TikTok? That’s the problem with a lot of parents. They use their children as props. A real parent keeps their kid off of social media because there are too many creeps out there. The responses she got on TikTok prove this. That would have been the last time my kid is on social media.

I’m done with this article. Let’s just get to the main points:

  • This is not about racism or systemic racism.
    • Black men are not being prevented from donating, they’re just not.
    • Cryobanks are not discriminating against black men. There’s too much money in it for them.
  • This about the devaluing of life.
    • Children on not seen as human beings.
    • That’s why there is abortion.
    • Drugging “trans-kids”.
    • And body mutilation of trans-kids.
    • It why kids can watch drag shows.
    • And why kids can perform in drag shows.
    • It’s why educating kids is not as important as indoctrinating them in the public school system.
    • Like in Huxley’s Brave New World, they are drones to be grown and controlled.
  • Kids are seen as nothing but commodities. It’s perverse.
  • It devalues men. We are seen as nothing but sperm donors.
  • It’s about destroying the institution of the family.
    • Who needs a father?
    • We can just give a woman sperm and she can magically create a family.
    • Not once was this woman asked if she thought it might be a good thing to find a man and create a family. Not once.
