So I did a little experiment with Josie. It required some research but I did learn something.

It is really easy to be a racist.

 

Happy Juneteenth

President Biden signed a bill that will make June 19th, better known (well, hardly known) as Juneteenth.

Biden said during the ceremony:

“I have to say to you, I’ve only been President for several months, but I think this will go down, for me, as one of the greatest honors I will have as President.

“I regret that my grandchildren aren’t here, because this is a really, really, really important moment in our history. By making Juneteenth a federal holiday, all Americans can feel the power of this day and learn from our history — and celebrate progress and grapple with the distance we’ve come (and) the distance we have to travel.”

He also said that this should be a day of reflection. He said:

“We can’t rest until the promise of equality is fulfilled for every one of us in every corner of this nation. That to me is the meaning of Juneteenth. So let’s make this very Juneteenth tomorrow the first that our nation will celebrate all together, as one nation. A Juneteenth of action on many fronts.” 

In June 19, 1865, was the day that Union Army Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger rode into Galveston, Texas, and told slaves of their emancipation ordered by Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863.

• I think this is a good thing and long time coming.
• I would rather they had celebrated the actual Emancipation Proclamation release date instead of Juneteenth but:
  • January 1 is already a national holiday.
  • June 19th is very obscure.
  • Abraham Lincoln is now being called a racist.
• What’s odd is CNN and other reporters are saying that Republicans approved this while rejecting Critical Race Theory.
  • Juneteenth is a celebration of Americas ability to move past its own sins because they were evil and not in tune to our Constitution and philosophy.
  • CRT is a refusal to believe the United States and all white people have moved forward. All our systems, our history and white people have never moved past those evils and we are still evil and need to indoctrinate our kids in that philosophy.

Give a mouse a cookie. Any time the Left gets something they want, they want to beat us down to get more.

My Racist Day

Ibram X. Kendi, the grandson of Critical Theory and the father of Critical Race Theory was asked to define racism. This is what he said:

“I would define it as a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity that are substantiated by racist ideas.”

I am not as smart as Ibram is but I speak English. I don’t know what that means. I was taught that if you are asked to define something, do not use the same word in the definition. For example:

“A pencil is made up of the materials that make up a pencil.”

I’m not a PhD in anything so it might be that I’m not smart enough to understand what he is talking about. I know this is true because I read his book and couldn’t understand anything he was saying. I decided to assume I am just mentally deficient to be able to understand the philosophy of such a great mind. The only other conclusion I could come up with is that he’s a complete f-ing idiot and that would be racist because of my white privilege.

After reading how birds and conversation is racist yesterday, I decided to analyze my day and see if I am a racist. I realized I am a racist and I feel bad for it. So let’s go through my day and discuDTss how each activity just proves how I am a racist.

1. I woke up early this morning because I had things to do. That’s racist because my life has goals I need to meet on a daily basis and progression in life is racist. Not kidding. Anti-racists are teaching that.
2. My bedroom is also the master bedroom. That’s racist because the bedroom is the “master”.
3. I pee in an American Standard toilet. This is racist because America is a systemically racist country and it is unequitable since other countries whose populations are of people of color do not have running water.
4. I drank two glasses of water. That racist because people of color can’t swim apparently and water is racist.
5. I put on jeans and a long sleeve shirt. My ensemble is racist because in is made of cotton and cotton is a symbol of slavery.
6. My T-shirt has an American flag which is racist because the flag represents oppression of people of color and systemic racism.
7. I went on a three-mile walk. That’s racist because white people walk differently than people of color making sidewalks a symbol of white supremacy.
8. I didn’t wear a mask which is racist because people of color are more susceptible to the China virus and I just don’t care.
9. Calling COVID-19 the China virus is racist against Chinese people.
10. I carried my walking stick that I always carry. That’s racist because my stick is made of oak and oak is a tree and trees symbolize lynching of black people, making trees racist.
11. I listen to Matt Walsh which is racist because he is a symbol of white supremacist hate.
12. When I go outside, I take deep breaths of the morning air. The air is racist because it is polluted, and pollution affects people of color far worse than white people.
13. When finishing my walk, I make a cup of coffee. Coffee is racist because it is cultivated and collected by oppressed and enslaved people in Latin American countries.
14. I watch the Ben Shapiro Show which is racist because Ben Shapiro is a symbol of white supremacist hate.
15. I write my blog post. That’s racist because it’s written in English which is the language of colonialism which destroyed the indigenous people.
16. I watch Louder with Crowder which is racist because Steven Crowder and his minions are symbols of white supremacist hate.
17. I record my podcast spewing my Conservative, racist, white supremacist hate.
18. I was hungry so I ate a 7-11 burrito made of jalapeño and beef. Extra spicy. That’s racist because its cultural appropriation of Latinx culture.
19. I drink water to cool my mouth after eating the extra spicy burrito. That racist because people of color can’t swim apparently and water is racist.
20. Josie came over for her lunch. I made her a grilled salami and cheese sandwich. That’s racist because she is Latinx and I expected her to be over because of my white privilege.
21. Josie peed in my American Standard toilet. This is racist because America is a symbol of systemic racism and it is unequitable since other countries whose populations are of people of color do not have running water.
22. It is also racist because I assumed Josie would be OK with peeing in a symbol of systemic racism and it is unequitable since other countries whose populations are of people of color do not have running water.
23. Josie kissed me goodbye. That is racist because I expected her to satisfy my desire with a kiss because of my white privilege. I think that’s also probably sexist.
24. I like to read and read a chapter from three different books. Reading is racist because it is attained through the education system and all systems are systemically racist.
26. I take a nap. This is racist because I have the white privilege to take a nap and I do it in my “master” bedroom…which is also racist.
27. I wake up and watch The Five on Fox News. This is racist because Fox News is a symbol of white supremacist hate.
28. The hockey playoff game starts, Tampa Bay versus the New York Islanders. This is racist because no one kneels in protest during the National Anthem.
29. I cheer as Tampa Bay wins 4-1. This is racist because the inequitable outcome of the game is representative of the inequitable outcomes between whites and people of color.
30. I make chicken and corn for dinner. Chicken is racist because chicken poop and fart creating carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide pollutes the air. Air pollution affects people of color disproportionately from white people.
31. Corn is racist because it is the food of indigenous people and eating it cultural appropriation.
32. I grilled the chicken and corn. That is racist because it adds carbon monoxide to the air. Air pollution affects people of color disproportionately from white people.
33. I have a couple of Budweisers to drink. That’s racist because Bud is an American beer (sort of) and America symbolizes the oppression of people of color and systemic racism.
34. The owner of the house gave me a Corona and we watched the basketball game. Corona is a Mexican beer so I was appropriating Mexican culture.
35. I decide to watch the movie Shaun of the Dead. This is racist because this British film does not have enough people of color.
36. Watching a British film is racist because of the colonialism of the British to America, exploiting the indigenous people.
37. I’m watching the movie outside and turn on my outside lights. That is racist because I bought the lights at Walmart. Walmart is racist because…well…it’s Walmart.
38. After I go to bed, I go inside and lock the door. This is racist because my implicit bias assumes a person of color will break into my place and rob me.
39. I go to bed. This is racist because I sleep in the “master” bedroom.
40. I fall asleep. This is racist because my white privilege allows me to relax enough to fall asleep.

How many of you actually find it insane that everything I do can be construed to racism? It didn’t even take me a long time to come up with this. I just had to remember my day and remember the past articles I have read. A simple Google search will validate everything I came up with has been thought of before.

It is so easy to demonize people.
