NB Commentary: This is the most ridiculous mind
fuck they got going. Or is it?
This is probably
going to be one of my most incensed rants of all times, well so far anyways. I
just don't get it and I have been trying to stay out of it. Colin and his flag
protest is so old and so tired and so not an issue to me. Why? Because I have not
saluted a flag in over 45 years. Why? Because why should I? What does saluting
a flag prove? That I am an idol worshiper? That I do as I am told? That I
believe the 2 verses that are sung? That I would rather go along with the crowd
than stand out and be different? That even though the flag is supposed to
represent "freedom" and all that bullshit that I believe it does?
What are national
anthems? They are lies, they stir the hearts and minds of the people to think
that there country is so great and so awesome that they will go on the battle
field holding the ding dong piece of cloth and risk being shot to smithereens.
Okay, so they don't do that anymore, but they sure as hell put that flag on
every ding dong bomb they make, every missile, every drone and every ground to
air missile, not to mention all the other military might that they have
invading the land and sea. So what does the flag really mean….? It means
imperialism and the right to be "imperialistic" world wide. Hell,
these folks had the nerve to plant that piece of striped cloth on the moon for
crying out loud. The moon?? The Moon?? To say what, to mean what, to do what???
How nonsensical is it to plant a flag on the moon to say, my ass was there and
don't you forget it!
Of course, they also
say there's no wind up there and so having it on the moon, well it could be
there forever right? My question is, are there any other flags on the moon? And
if so why?
Folks rattle on and
on about the constitutional right of an individual to protest, yet the police
have the right to tell you to take your ass and your protest somewhere else if
they deem it necessary to do so or that you are "disturbing" the peace.
And it ain't about color, though I would like to throw in the race card as
well. But if anyone saw what happened to the "Occupy WallStreet"
folks they would know that it ain't about color.
It's all about
control. Control the narrative = mainstream media, Control your behavior =
laws, Control your independence = Police.
So, I just recently
found out what the last verse of the song was. Why am I not surprised.
Seriously, did they really stop singing that part because the song was too long
or was it too embarrassing to sing it? And I wonder how many folks of all
colors would sing it anyways if it was part of the program. Don't you ever
wonder about that? Like who were these people who wrote songs like "Save a
Wretch Like Me" turn abolitionists. Were they really all that or were they
too a part of controlled opposition, cause all we got is the Civil War, thousands dead and Jim Crow.
I fail to see the
honor or the humor in pledging allegiance to a flag, that has no real value in
the real scheme of things and instead has been a symbol of American Empire.
Check it out. We have to revere it, honor it, handle it in a certain way, march
with it hung a certain way, fold it a certain way, and at one time it was a
crime to even wear anything that had the flag on it. Now folks want to protest,
but due they put down their beers at home when the anthem is played? Do they stop smacking on their hot dogs in
the bleachers at the games? Do the fans even care about the anthem or even know
the words to the first two verses?
These anthems are
marching orders, they are incantations and are mind control to rally the masses
around some symbol without having them realize or even care what the symbol
means. Why do countries have flags?? What does it do for their self esteem? And
we all know that some of the most ruthless countries in the world, including
the US are the biggest flag wavers.
Actually, pledging
to a flag is a form of idol worship, and this form of idol worship should not
be taken lightly.
I did not want to
get into this debate, but when I saw that our illustrious President got into
it, I knew straight up that this was a "MIND FUCK". What is a Mind
Fuck, it's propaganda, pure and simple. Here we now have a raging debate about
a piece of cloth that most folks realize that it does not live up to the so
called standards that it purports, that is, the country behind the flag has
been letting its people down across the board, but alas they give the people
this flag to pledge to and to quiet them down, cause they should not even think
about how they are being brain washed into believing a lie.
This thing is so
comical, I laughed all day as it has monopolized the twitterverse, instagram
and Facebook. The memes were hysterical. But, even though folks are making fun
and some aren't taking it seriously they are still paying attention to it and
to him and making all kinds of videos etc. He and his propaganda is trending
now, and like that madness with Beyoncé, folks are equating this to some kind
of radical black power statement. "Power to the People," "Black
Power," "I'm Black and I'm Proud" and the latest of him joining
the Nation of Islam??
Uh oh, that fro gone
have to go!! But I digress.
Then the President
weighed in on it.
Back in the day, we
would call a person like him "shady", and I call him "Slim
Shady" and let me tell you why.
He is always
throwing shade. He never ceases to amaze me how he throws shade like he is the
star athlete on the Shades Basketball team. His throwing shade in this
situation was all I could bare in avoiding this topic in my blogs. I really did
not want to get caught up in it. I know it is straight bull shit and the masses
are being manipulated by this guy who wore an Afro just to show off his
protest.
Back to Obama, I
mean "Slim Shady". So, here we have the leader of the so called
"free world", the very man who wants to gather up the American's guns
say that Kaepernick has the right to sit down. Of course he has the right to
sit down. He better not stand up!!
And how they call
this taking a stand is unreal for me. Of course later he comes out giving his
millions away, but what did he do before he had millions, what did he do before
he was chosen to be the star of the "gossip mainstream media"?
But again, that is
not what got me ranting… What got me ranting is that here we have the Willie
Lynch syndrome taking wings again. Here we have one "light-skinned
brother, standing up for another light skinned brother." Don't get me
wrong, we all black if you ask me and I ain't about that color stuff, but of
all the times that Obama could have stood up for the rights of Black folks, he
stands for the right of this brother to sit down because it's his
constitutional right, and yet if that brother said he wanted to own a gun,
especially a high powered military grade rifle, Obama would be quick to NOT
SITE his constitutional right, but would
ask had he had his head examine. Do you see what I mean? It's the hypocrisy of
it all. On one hand you have rights on the other hand you have none. So why
throw the Constitution in there on a day when you wanna speak out for your
bi-racial brother but not throw it out there for those folks who want their
guns. In fact, why haven't you spoken out about police brutality that has been
waged clearly against black men and women of all shades? What about their needs
to be represented? Instead you quietly write into law a executive order to
protect police, a Blue Lives Matter Bill of sorts.
How is it that you
can be so smug about Blue Lives and militarize them to the hilt when you know
those Blue lives are brutalizing Black Lives. Where do you start with the
Constitution and where do you stop??
And that my friends
is what has me writing like a bangy chicken over here because hypocrisy boils
my blood. The whole do what I say and not what I do or better yet, listen to
what I say and ignore what I do.
African Americans
have seen the 1st Black President disappoint them over and over and over again.
Ignore their issues, put band-aide on cancer (ObamaCare) cry over the deaths of
little white children and give lip service to Trayvon Martin while he meanwhile
ignores the homeless, even the veterans, and the poor in this country, who by
the way are predominately black folks.
When he first came
into "power" and he said he would not address the Bush Administration
war crimes, I knew then he was a shoe-in for the oligarchy, the bankers, the
power elite. I knew then that he was a puppet and all them crying black folks who
prayed over him and laid their hands on his head and all that, that he would
not and will not and has not come up to the plate for African Americans. He, like Kaeperkick only black when they want
to make a point or when they are being "used" to make a point other
than that… the are brothers of the cloth.. The biracial cloth, they can
identify with the fact that, yeah, but being biracial don't give you no props
in this racist country. Being a house "N" don't exempt you from being
a "N" no matter what, cause Willie Lynch is alive in well in all of
the US system and his impact can be felt far and wide.
Willie Lynch focused
on how to subdue slaves by dividing them and conquering them or controlling
them, and whether his was real or not, his method prevails to this day. It hits
African people hard as they fight among themselves, distrusting each other and
especially having issues with those "high yella" ones who thing cause
they got the massah's blood and live in the massah's house and got more of the
massah's money that they are better than the rest of us, until the massah puts
his foot so high up that the "high yella's" can't speak, that they
realize that racism hasn't died, we are not post racial, we are living in the
belly of Racism/White Supremacy.
My message and final
comment is, it takes more than sitting down and wearing an Afro to fight for
the rights of African people to live in peace and not be fearful of being
pulled over on a routine traffic stop. But I am grateful that he did it and I
hope he continues to hold on to his principles until he sees major change, not
window dressings, not pats on the back or on the head, not promises, but real
change.
Besides, saluting a
flag is the most ridiculous thing a person can do as far as I'm concerned, and
since this is my blog, I can say that!!
I just keep shaking
my head as the masses are played like a fiddle cause dude came back and knelt
for the soldiers. Huh? How does "support the troops" motto play into
this? Aren't they being brutalized by the same system that brutalizes Black folks?
Aren't they force to salute a tyrannical regime? Shouldn't all the soldiers
drop their guns and fight no more for this charade? So yeah, They got us,
trending on another trend. It's a gift that keeps on giving.
