War on White People
In the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy the number 42 is the answer to everything. Racism today is the new number 42. But only when it can be twisted to apply to white people. In the next few days, I’ll cover some recent events and let you decide.
The murder of eight people in Atlanta, six Asian, immediately became a racist incident against Asians. It was an act of white supremacy. It had to be because Robert Long is white and most of his victims are Asian. Most of the recent physical assaults, some deadly, on Asian Americans have been carried out by African Americans, but they don’t make headlines. When they are reported, racism is whitewashed from the story. Particularly horrible about this seemingly false accusation of racism is that it is concealing two problems in society that need attention: sex addiction, and human trafficking. Most of the victims of human trafficking into the United States are women from East Asia and most are trafficked for sex work. With the prevalence of massage parlors with happy endings, this seems like a problem that should be addressed. Sex addiction is on the rise in America as a result of easy access to porn and dating on the internet. It affects 3-5% of adults (12-30 million) and it often times leads to rape, pedophilia and pornography addictions. This too seems like a problem and one that is getting worse because it’s not being addressed in any meaningful way.
Meyers Leonard is a white basketball player for the NBA. He became the front-page news for two days because of an anti-Semitic slur. The coverage of the slur included a picture of him uniquely among his teammates standing for the National Anthem. A picture is worth a thousand words. Meyers is a white patriot that is anti-Semitic. Is Meyers anti-Semitic? That is very doubtful. He said he didn’t know what k*ke meant. I suppose a lot of Americans might not know that Yankee is a racial slur for white people and so is Abe Lincoln. Of course, he could be lying, but his apology sounded heartfelt. Here’s the rub; blacks are 2.1 times more likely to be anti-Semitic than whites, (For Latinos it is 1.9 times more likely.) but anti-Semitism by blacks is only reported on the back page and any punishments are undisclosed. Actually, NFL player DeSean Jackson was required to go the Holocaust Museum after posting this quote “attributed to Hitler” to Instagram. “Because the white Jews knows that the Negroes are the real Children of Israel and to keep Americas secret the Jews will blackmail America. They will extort America, their plan for world domination won’t work if the Negroes know who they were. The white citizens of America will be terrified to know that all this time they’ve been mistreating and discriminating and lynching the Children of Israel.” When the NFL came down on Jackson, NBA player, Stephen Jackson, defended DeSean by adding some anti-Semitic remarks of his own. When players challenged Stephen, he doubled down. Both DeSean and Stephen are avid social justice advocates and veteran kneelers during the National Anthem. But they are protesting against white oppression. The Jews are fair game. In 2020 DeSean and Stephen made $8.6 million and $10 million respectively.
