Sessions in Hell.

It wasn't at all what he'd expected. There was no fire. No brimstone. Instead of sulfur he smelled magnolias. Instead of a blazing inferno it was just a regular June day in Alabama. Hot, to be sure, but certainly not enough to cause him to wail and gnash his teeth. It wasn't dark and gloomy, either. The sun was shining, the birds singing, the bees a-buzzing, and everywhere around him was the sound of laughter. Their laughter burned him up faster than any hell fire ever could.

One might not think this was damnation, he thought bitterly, if not for the company,

"Boy, why are you standing there staring at the clouds? Ain't you got work to be doing?"

The voice startled him. The sudden fear that rose up inside him at the sound of it filled him with hatred, for them and himself, but he dared not give it a voice. "Yessir." he squeaked weakly, shuffling off to get another tray of hors d'oeuvres, as peals of laughter lashed at his bent, scarred back.

The kitchen hummed as usual. There was no shortage of food or drink to be taken out to the party guests, who had endless appetites, but he was the only server here. The cook, his only collaborator in this endless and goalless endeavor, glanced at him with desperate, bloodshot eyes as he entered and was immediately scolded by the kitchen master.

"Get back to work!" her overseer, a monster of a woman with skin like mahogany that loomed over her always, bellowed at once. She jumped visibly at the shouted command and, returning her attention immediately to her monstrous sixteen burner gas range, continued to stir her many pots.

"You see this here, Jeffy?" The overseer said to him in a mockingly conspiratorial tone, "Paula thinks she's special. Maybe this kitchen isn't hot enough for her. What do you think?"

"I don-"

"Shut the fuck up, you little elf looking bitch!" She screamed at him immediately. "No one cares what you think! Get the fuck out of my kitchen!"

He grabbed another of the large silver serving platters and exited the kitchen quickly. Her cackles seeming to physically push him from the room. 

Outside again, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions the Third began to move from one group of party goers, seated in groups of six or so and scattered across the gigantic lawn, to another so that they could graze from his tray. Most of them ignored him completely. He preferred that. It stung him a little when they waved him away without looking at him, dismissing him as though he were an animal, but he said nothing. Any protest would be followed swiftly by all manner of harsh punishments. 

Sometimes they put him in the stocks. Other times, he was flogged. Once, when he'd struck a party goer for tripping him and sending his tray flying onto another, he'd been forced to wear an iron collar with three long sharp prongs that protruded from it. They'd engraved a big "J" on the front of it just for him, they'd said with glee as they'd fastened it around his neck, because he was their special guy. Once they'd removed the collar, some weeks later, they had hung it up above his bed in his quarters. It was the first and last thing he saw each day. 

"Come here, boy!" That voice again. He broke out into gooseflesh immediately. He knew who it was even before he turned to look upon the speaker. He stared hard at Jeff over his steepled fingers. 

"Y-yessir!" Sessions replied in a meek voice as he rushed over to offer up his tray.

"Mmm! These look good!" The man said approvingly as he plucked a fried green tomato slider from the tray. "You ever try these, boy?" The question was followed by giggles from the other guests at the table.

"No, sir." 

"Aw! That's too bad." He replied, mockingly. This exchange happened in one way or the other every single day. Or what seemed like a day to Jeff. Time was funny here. "Why not, boy? Why can't you eat?" More chuckles followed.

"Because this food is for people, sir."

"That's right, Jeff. This food is for people. And what are you?"

"I'm just a pasty little savage. A white devil that deserves nothing but hatred. A rabid cloven hoof animal that is no better than a cow, goat, or pig." Jeff knew the words now. They'd been hard to learn, at first, but he couldn't forget them now. They were as seared onto the surface of his brain as their brands were on the surface of his skin. 

"Run along now, boy." He said, as the chuckles turned to roars of approval and amusement.

"Yessir, Mister Malcolm, sir." He said, relieved to be dismissed, and turned to leave. Suddenly, the air was pushed from his lungs as a heavy fist drove up into his diaphragm with impossible force. The punch lifted him high into the air and sent his tray spinning through the air. As he crashed to the ground at a sickening, bone crushing velocity his vision dimmed and he almost rejoiced at the loss of consciousness that was surely coming. Alas, it did not. Gasping for air, tears streaming down his face, his every bone and muscle screaming in horror, Jeff looked up at his assailant.

"I'm a bad man!" He yelled down at him, throwing back his head and howling with glee. 

"As much as I abhor violence in all it's forms, that shit right there is pretty damn funny."

"You're not wrong, Martin." Malcolm said.

"I don't know, man. It just seems so heavy. Like, is this guy really that bad?" 

"You're smoking entirely too much grass, Jimi." Martin replied. "This man is the very scum of the earth. His entire existence was spent making life harder for our people and easier for his own. He trampled the very freedom that we all fought for, that we all lived for, and that we all died for. As far as I'm concerned, he deserves every torment, trial, and tribulation that the after life can provide."

"Ok, man. Whatever. He's bad. But look. This is heaven, man. Heaven, you dig? And we're spending it being mean? It just seems wrong." Jimi ended his short speech with a long drag of the joint that was forever in his hand.

"Pffft. Man, fuck that. Punch that bitch ass motherfucker again, Ali."

"Of course, you would say that, Pac!" laughed Malcolm. "What about you, Jesus? What do you think?"

All eyes turned to the bearded, dark-skinned man at the far end of the table. He'd been quiet during the entire exchange, neither talking nor laughing, and he looked at them now as if seeing them all for the first time. Jeff looked up at him, hopefully.

"Brothers," Jesus said, "This is your heaven and his hell. Everything you see here is for you to enjoy. That includes the suffering of this evil creature that lies here before us. He was cruel, wicked, spiteful, and vicious. He lacked all kindness, honesty, and empathy. He loved nothing but wealth and cherished nothing but power. He served false gods and worshiped false idols. His damnation has been commanded by my father and yours." Jesus reached out and snatched the joint from Jimi's fingers. He took a long, thoughtful pull from it, and, smiling broadly down at Sessions, said "Punch that bitch ass motherfucker again, Muhammad."

Grinning, Ali lunged at Jeff, who was still prone, and planted a devastating right hook in his dumb, shocked face. This time the darkness did take him. He let it slide over him like a warm blanket and drifted into oblivion. 

Are they Nazis yet, America?

Three dead.

Nineteen injured.

This is the damage that white supremacy did to a town to protect white people from minorities. All three dead people are white.

Heather Heyer was run down in the street by an angry young white man that probably felt that her presence, her very existence, was a threat to his own. So he hit her with his car at forty miles per hour for crossing the street.

Pilots Lt. Jay Cullen, 48, of Midlothian, and Berke M.M. Bates, of Quinton, died in a helicopter crash while trying to observe the violence from the air. I'm sure many will argue that they aren't the Alt-Right's fault because they weren't directly killed by Nazis. My argument? You blamed BLM for ANY and ALL violence and ANY and ALL deaths that took place at their protests. This was your protest. By your logic these are your bodies.

I've said, and keep saying, that this violent white genocide rhetoric is, and has been, deadly. I take no pleasure in being right about it. To be honest, I do not feel like I'm saying anything particularly shocking. Violent rhetoric begets violence. Chanting for dead cops is wrong. Chanting Nazi slogans, and throwing Nazi salutes, is wrong. Showing up at protests armed, and intending to fight, is wrong.

The president refusing to denounce them will only embolden them. Be prepared for the Alt-Right to turn the Charlottesville TERRORIST into a folk hero, don't be surprised when the memes start showing up ridiculing the victims, and watch closely as his act inspires copycat acts at other protests. They're fanatics. As dangerous as any other terrorist group and moreso to the U.S for one simple, and obvious, reason - THEY ARE HERE. Not only that, they're now all but state sponsored by the Trump administration. Tools for their soft fascist coup. And why not? That's what Trump's boss does, after all.

I hope that today has cleared some things up for those that were still on the fence.

The Alt-Right are Neo Nazis. Trump is a Fascist. Trump is using Neo Nazis, because they're his base, to attack his opposition. This is just the beginning and it's only going to get worse. What are we waiting for?

Kristallnacht?

Not me, baby.

Put your fucking boots on.

HITLER WAS NOT A SOCIALIST.

An oft repeated right wing lie that must be debunked whenever possible.

Firstly, I'm not a Marxist. I'm not especially a socialist, either, although I do believe that healthcare should be socialized. That's another post entirely, though. One, now that I think of it, I may write later. But I digress...

The Nazis outlawed socialism. They were imprisoning, and killing, socialists and communists before they were killing Jews. 

There were socialists in the Nazi party initially. They were represented mainly by the Strasser brothers and Strasserism. Guess what happened to them? Otto Strasser was expelled from the party in 1930 after a disagreement with Hitler over Hitler's disregard for socialist ideals during which Hitler repeatedly called Strasser a "liberal". He later went into exile in Czechoslovakia. The other brother, Gregor Strasser? Murdered during the Night of the Long Knives. 

Hitler didn't even believe in socialist economic principles nor did he institute them.

“Hitler was never a socialist. But although he upheld private property, individual entrepreneurship, and economic competition, and disapproved of trade unions and workers' interference in the freedom of owners and managers to run their concerns, the state, not the market, would determine the shape of economic development. Capitalism was, therefore, left in place. But in operation it was turned into an adjunct of the state."

            - Hitler 1936 – 45: Nemisis, by Ian Kershaw.

“We have to strip the terms ‘Nationalism’ and ‘Socialism’ of their previous meaning. Only that man is a nationalist who stands by his people, and only that man is a socialist who stands up for the rights of his people both internally and externally.”

            - Adolf Hitler, November 16, 1928.

There are so many articles that have been written on why Hitler was not a socialist that I honestly don't understand how anyone could fall for a lie so blatant.

Here is Reddit featuring many, many people debunking this nonsense. 

Here is a youtube video debunking the claim as made by Steven Crowder, a well known lying piece of shit -

Here is Professor David Klein of California State University, Northridge debunking the same myth.

Here's a Guardian opinion piece about this continually repeated lie. 

Here's a piece written by Albert Einstein on socialism.

Here's the definition of socialism itself for the people that are confused. 

When you search google for Hitler's links to left wing socialism you'll find yourself all but drowned in a murky green soup of right wing propaganda sites that try to distance themselves from this obviously right wing fascist dictator. Infowars, CNS, TheRebel, TheNationalReview, etc. The target of this fallacy is obvious, right wingers that don't check sources.  It's intended goal is equally obvious – Fear mongering.

“Look how the left is the enemy!” They scream. 

Ironically, this is exactly why Hitler sometimes claimed to be a socialist. It was a way to win over the workers with words while he acted in whichever way suited him best.

If he was such a left winger and a socialist then why was he supported by the right and by big business? Big business which, by the way, flourished before, during, and even after the war.

This shit is basic as hell and I feel like I shouldn't even have to write it... but I clearly do... So here it is.

Have a great day.

All Due Respect

So. Yesterday someone punched Richard Spencer in the face.

Good.

People say that all violence is bad. That he has a right to speak his mind. That we should be more tolerant. To those people I say, simply; Bullshit.

There should be no tolerance for fascists. There is no protection under the constitution for a man that preaches ethnic cleansing and, make no mistake, that is what he preaches. He advocates for a white ethno-state. He wants America to be a safe space for people of white European decent. How do you make America white without removing the minorities? You can't. How do you remove American minorities without violence? You can't.

His platform is ethnic cleansing. Just because it comes from a dough faced young white man with an easy smile and a stupid haircut people are normalizing him. Not surprisingly, really. The American public has become woefully un/misinformed. They'll believe just about anything they hear as long as it comes from a friendly source. Even if that friendly source is a white nationalist that wants to make America whiter.

First come the immigration bans. Then the purging of immigrants. Then what? Who's next? Latinos? Blacks? Asians?

Pay attention.

I'm glad he got punched. He needed it. He likely hasn't been punched in his life. I hope that from this he learns that his words incite violence and that said violence may not always be beneficial to him.

He gets no respect from me.

Hate Flourishes In Silence.

Obama is not the cause of poor race relations in our country.

I know that white people, even some of the woke ones, don't like to talk about slavery. Whenever it comes up it invokes that notion of justified white guilt and the perceived encouragement of black agitators to stir the cauldron of it. The thing that everyone has to realize is this: African-American's didn't forge that pot.

"Neither did I!", comes the cry from the decidedly pale peanut gallery. And you are absolutely right. Acknowledging the problems in our society caused by slavery is not the same thing as taking the blame for slavery. Understanding systemic racism is the first step to removing it from American culture and healing these old wounds.

The majority of white Americans are not racist and acknowledge that slavery was a very, very bad thing. They understand that no one should be treated in that way and that the people that engaged in it were flawed. The remaining minority is as diverse as that majority. Factory workers, bartenders, "Executive" assistants, cops, firemen, and members of our armed forces. Judges, teachers, and district attorneys?

Most definitely.  

They believe as strongly in their racism as I in denouncing it. They are driven, courageous, and meticulous while working to advance their cause. Though racism is considered an ignorant position we should not dismiss them as imbeciles. Never ever underestimate your opponent. Personally, in life and online, I face every threat head on as if it's the one that will end me. If it doesn't then I win and if it does than I'm right and I win.

Sidebar - I am a petty enough man that, were I killed by a psychotic racist stalker, I would release a final blog post about how I was right. Not that I want to be (un)living Proof, RIP, but I do like the idea of posthumously winning one thousand arguments.

Tombstone idea - Here lies Heysoos. He died for our wins.

I wonder how much of this rant will end up on the cutting room floor. This part, for example, is probably gone.

Back to the main point. The racists that make systemic racism possible. The racists consist of three main groups that I'll name;

The vocal, the yokel, and the focal.

The vocal are your propaganda merchants. Your infowars, your prisonplanet, the hated "andieiamwhoiam". These are your "shout from the rooftops" that blacks are savages racists. Their goal is to push any and all negative press that they can about minorities. Jews, Blacks, Hispanics, Natives, Muslims, of course, and anyone that's different. Any defense of a minority will produce unsourced graphs and hate speech. "Blacks are savages as evidenced by this graph you can't really read that I got from /pol/!". The problem with a lot of these people is that they don't actually even care if their claims are accurate. They know that none of their followers is checking. This allows them to grow more powerful and spread their slimy untruths to a wider audience. Admittedly, there isn't much you can do. You read their claim, Google it, post the actual data, make a factual argument, and they'll either start to yell nigger at you, block you, or their followers attack you while they disappear from the confrontation and sit liking the comments. Still, you win and, with a little luck, those that witness this will be emboldened to speak against their ilk in the future.

The yokels are especially susceptible. I don't mean this as a derogatory term, "yokel". The yokels are usually good people. Salt of the earth and all that. They are not, however, especially well educated. I'm not an elitist, far from it, but certain parts of the education process are important. Conducting proper research, for example, is a learned skill. Understanding the difference between a good source and a bad - and knowing how to check. Recognizing bias and opinion within an article or post, dismissing the fluff, and getting the actual meat of a story. These are things that you learn through proper education and while uneducated America is not dumb or stupid it lacks the skills necessary to educate itself. Fake news is a problem because people can't and/or don't do any research. Most don't even read passed the headline. That's a problem.

The focals just want to be the center of it all. "Look at me! Nigger nigger nigger! I'm edgy and hip. White power and all this. Do I fit in yet?". Kids looking for an identity and creating one on the internet. They're outrageous. Some of them are even funny! The danger here is that, because it's a joke, it is at best ignored and at worst rewarded. Rewarding the focal with attention causes him to swell and sweat. He becomes a size larger as he basks in the adulating light of the internet Gods. He posts more. He gains followers. He spreads the hate. All while bringing it to the mainstream with comedy and increasing tensions between all races.

"That's fucking racist as fuck!" I think to myself as I read tweets and comments. But the slurs aren't what bothers me. What bothers me is when I see that some school teacher from Vermont liked it when someone told me to go back to Africa.

"It's just a joke! Get thicker skin! You think everything is racist!" Says Alice, the totally not racist housewife from Texas that just wants to Make America Great Again.

The local is just someone that is racist because they love in a bubble. Exile from society. self imposed, or otherwise, coupled with a hatred for minorities that they learned as younger humans. A black guy bullied them in high school, a gang of wild ass street niggas best them up for being in the wrong place, or maybe they grew up in that wrong place and were persecuted by blacks that were in that area a majority. This type of racism can easily gain mainstream acceptance with non racist but racist sympathetic white America.

"You'd hate them too if you grew up in [rough inner city]!".

"Well shit!", says the non racist racist sympathizer, "Maybe I would. That's a rough place. Poor guy.".

Their racist views have gained acceptance. Surely, this is confirmation that they are right about everything. Smart people on the interwebs say so. Simply by not challenging their racism you are spreading more hate.

And here is were I get to my point after so much rambling. All three of these groups overlap with the majority because the majority allows racism to exist.

Slavery was only made possible by the racist dehumanization of minorities. What starts off as a session of internet trolling might very well turn into another Dylan Roof. Hate is a contagious intoxicant and there is no more dangerous human than one that is drunk on hate.

The dehumanizing of minorities has only increased during Obama's presidency because Americans as a group refuse to talk about real racial issues like systemic racism. Systemic racism exists because, although the majority of whites are not racist, that majority allows and encourages it with their apathy. People are then allowed to walk through their lives being racist assholes with a measure of security.

Real world examples.

Chip slips and says something about those damn niggers at the water cooler. No one is going to HR. I mean, come on, right?! Yeah, he's a racist fuck but he grew up in Chicago. He can't help it. Later on that day, Frank will deny a loan to an African American couple with excellent credit because he doesn't trust black people.

Eddie is just so damn sick of these black folk. "Criminals, all of them!" He tells his wife at night. She nods glumly as he regurgitates faulty statistics he read on Twitter and sermonizes about the black man's genetic predisposition to crime. The next day, he grins as an African American man stands before him in his courtroom. "Well,", He thinks, "he definitely did it.".

Loraine confides in her co-worker that she really hates minorities and every single day her hatred of them grows. "They're fucking animals!", she seethes. Her new coworker shrugs and sips his coffee. "I don't really want to get into this.", He thinks. Three days later, Loraine hops out of her squad car and guns down an eight year old Latino boy holding a toy truck.

It's not about being politically correct. It's about having integrity. When you know that something is wrong you should speak up and speak out. If you don't then you are just as guilty as those that perpetrate the crime. More so, perhaps, because you knew from the very beginning that it was wrong and you let it go on anyway.

It starts with words but it doesn't always end there.

Sometimes, the words end up killing people.

Happy MLK day, y'all.

Who said I had any valor?

Whenever I tell people that I'm a veteran on the internet I'm attacked. I'm told that I'm not a real veteran; "Stolen valor!" is the usual cry. I'm told that if I am a veteran then I'm definitely not an infantryman because infantryman aren't black. I'm told that I'm not a hero.

Let's do this backwards, shall we?

Firstly, I've never claimed to be a hero. I'm a veteran, sure, but not a hero. Have I done things that people might deem "heroic"? Sure. I've got some medals. Lots of veterans do. That doesn't make me a hero and I would never claim that it did. It's a cliché for a reason; All the heroes I know are dead. A hero throws himself on a grenade to protect his squad, steps in front of a bullet for a friend, charges towards a vehicle-born improvised explosive device to save the men at his checkpoint. Plenty of those to laud and applaud. I'm not among their number. I did none of those things. I am not a hero.

Second, while it's true that black men are under represented in the infantry and, indeed, across the board within US military combat arms positions, we do exist. Black infantryman aren't fucking unicorns for Christ's sake. One in five soldiers in the US Army are black and 22% of that number are combat arms. So, of around half a million soldiers, one in five is black and, of that one hundred thousand, one in five is combat arms. 20,000 soldiers. How unlikely is it that I'm one of those soldiers? Are these impossible odds? I think not.

Third, "Stolen valor!". This comes up usually because of my reluctance to post pictures of myself on social media. The amusing thing about this is that it's almost always invoked by people that would use my personal information to hurt me in some way. Really, in any way that they can. These pigs, these swine, will no doubt use any personal information that I post on Twitter or any other social media to track me down and harass me. Not just me, of course, but the people that I love and that look to me to keep them safe. So what do I do? Bow to my ego, post pictures of myself, and put my loved ones at risk so that people won't call me names on the internet? I think fucking not. Having "Stolen valor!" screamed at me over twitter is the absolute least of my worries. Having someone attack my family on Facebook, at best, or in the street, at worst, is a much more concrete concern. These people are certifiably insane. I would never subject those that i care about to the abuses that they'd wish to perpetrate. Call me all the fucking names you want, I can take it, but you will never get to my people. That's a level of the game that no one wants to take it to with me. This I can promise you. Some would call me a feral, an animal, and a savage. Trust your own assessment. Maybe I am all of those things and, if that's the case, then you should not attempt to corner me.

I'll continue to say that I'm a veteran, because I am, and they'll continue to attack me. It's ok by me. I can hack it. I used to load my weapons and fight terrorists for my country; fascist swine on the internet doesn't scare me. These days my weapons are my words, and the terrorists domestic, but the fight is the same. I'm ready for it.

Read the name of the fucking blog, man.

I'm ready for a dirty game.

The Myth Of "White Genocide".

Let's discuss this fabled "White Genocide" that everyone is buzzing about right now.

What is "White genocide"?

Wikipedia states:

White genocide is a white nationalist conspiracy theory that mass immigration, integration, miscegenation, low fertility rates and abortion are being promoted in predominantly white countries to deliberately turn them minority-white and hence cause white people to become extinct through forced assimilation.

Kudos to Wikipedia for calling a spade a spade.

Let's dive on into this cesspool.

So, the theory is pretty concisely explained above. There is a conspiracy, most White supremacists believe, that is being perpetrated by THE JEWS, to make the White man extinct. This is being done with "Anti-White" policies instituted by the government with the intent of destroying  "White European" culture. That these people have no clue what "White European" culture is, is seemingly unimportant. "Never mind that I can't quote Shakespeare," they will say, "He was White and so I can claim credit for his works.". White supremacists often prattle on about the many achievements of White men as evidence of their superiority while they sit in their mother's basement trolling twitter. To be fair though, if your only achievement in this world was that you were born a certain race you might be a bitter racist, too.

Any criticism directed at White people is then branded as "Anti-White". Any White person that denounces racism is a "race traitor". As are White men and women that date/marry outside of their race. "Race traitors" are the lowest of the low to the White supremacist. A scourge to be shunned and shamed. How could they ever side with a *blank* person against a White? They are obviously a tool of the Jew conspirators and thus a much more detestable enemy.

I think that part of the reason that White supremacists hate "race traitors" so much is that a White man arguing against them destroys half, if not all, of their argument. How can they immediately feel superior to this White skinned aggressor? They can't post crime statistics or median IQ charts. They can't yell racial slurs. They can't use any of the approved go to insults at all. Invariably, liberals are now being met with the same hatred that was previously reserved only for people of color. "Liberal" is the new "nigger".

Indeed, even when I argue with them they tend to flounder. Clearly, I'm educated, I'm intelligent, I'm articulate, and reasonable. I don't threaten them with violence. Typos are rare. I have a dad, I take care of my kids, and I served my country honorably in combat. That last one especially sticks in their craw. A black VETERAN?! AND A LIBERAL?! Most of the time they respond by demanding that I prove my service and calling me a fake vet. "Stolen valor!", they cry. My service cucks them. Fuck 'em. I know where I've been.

I digress. "White genocide".

What is "genocide"?

Genocide is defined in the dictionary as:

Are people deliberately massacring Whites in the streets? Clearly not. White people make up 62% of the population in this country. Any attack on White people as a group would obviously fail.  White supremacists know this. Troll one and bring up the idea of a "race war". They will laugh and tell you they welcome such a thing. Why? Because there are more of them and they'd win. Yet, they fear the "genocide" of White people? I think not.

Genocide is a hard hitting word. It shocks people, especially stupid people, into action. I would not be surprised if there are militia groups gearing up at this very moment to actively combat this so called "White genocide". If they're fighting actual "genocide" what is the moral limit of their actions?

One of the first men to coin the term "White genocide" was David Eden Lane. Lane was a member of a group called "The Order". Denver, Colorado radio talk show host Alan Berg caught the attention of the group with his "often-abrasive on-air persona.". His radio show was intended to confront the "anti-Semitism latent in the area's conservative population". This turned out to be his downfall, however, as it ended up putting him on the group's death list. At around 9:30 pm, June 18th, 1984, Berg exited his VW Bug into a hail of 9mm gunfire. The illegally converted fully automatic Ingram MAC-10 riddled him before he took a step. He was shot 12 times and died on his back in the driveway of his own home, his feet barely out of his car.

This is the result of Lane's rhetoric.

Lane was quoted after Berg's death as saying, "The only thing I have to say about Alan Berg is, regardless of who did it, he has not mouthed his hate-whitey propaganda from his 50,000-watt zionist pulpit for quite a few years". Pure hate.

Lane died in prison. Good riddance.

These men are inciting violence against people for imagined violence against them. No one is perpetrating "White genocide". No one is advocating "White genocide". The very term is a smokescreen for White supremacy.

An immigrant that comes to the United States isn't doing so to destroy the White race. A White man that marries a Black woman isn't doing so to lessen the number of White children born into the world. A gay White man isn't gay because he wants his race to become extinct. White women do not get abortions to stop the advancement of White people. Yet this is the narrative that they are attempting to create. A narrative designed to instigate hate, fear, and violence. Pushing back against this narrative is essential for the survival of anyone that isn't a White supremacist.

Don't fall for the lies. The results could be, and have been, deadly.

Run them jewels (again).

Something amazing seems to happen when you combine Jaime Meline and Michael Render. Southern swag and Northern grit come together in the most magical way. What results is a rap duo the likes of which I haven't seen since Blackstar. The easy why that they feed each other as they walk all up and down the sick beats El-P creates for them is hard to hate. Even the people that aren't Hip Hop fans that I let (make) listen to them come away in a daze. It's not something you can argue with.

Run The Jewels 3 continues their trend of self improvement. 

Every record, indeed every song, is better than the last. A graph of their improvement would read like a stairway to heaven - Ever upward. 

The album pulls no punches, as is their custom, and hits you heavily about your ears like a three piece combo - Beat *Wop*, Mike *Wop*, El *Wop*. Free of charge, too. 

Don't forget to say thank you.

A Christmas fucking miracle.

Talk To Me is epic. "Militant Michael" clearly states his position firmly on the side of the cause of black equality, not that there was any doubt, with the line "My job is to fight for survival in spite of these "All Lives Matter" ass white folk.". He told y'all suckers.

Hey Kids (feat. Danny Brown) is just savage as fuck. Mike kills it right from the beginning and El proves, as usual, that he isn't playin' catch up with the skills. I'm not always a fan of Danny Brown but he for real kills it, too. Stepping it up to their level perhaps? Either way, the song is dope.

On Stay Gold El hits me with one of my favorite rhymes on the whole album, "All you fucking frauds can keep juggling lava rocks, I'm non-compliant/I'll define it, nothing servile, all defiance.". That shit is how I feel all day long.

Everybody Stay Calm seems like a contradiction as the beat forces you to bounce. With Killer Mike dropping lines like "Hey El, the AR’s an option for any asshole wanna talk and pop shit / Quit playing pussy or the pistol will pop off And get your whole face pushed back or knocked off.", and El P answering "They fucked up and paid us, made us dangerous / Too old to change, I’ma stay with paper / Poor folk love us the rich hate our faces / We talk too loud, won’t remain in our places.", I sit here sipping thinking "If y'all want me to stay calm you better quit hyping me up.".

I could sit here and talk about every song on the album but you should probably just listen to the shit.


Here's Hey Kids to get you started.

Happy birthday Jesus.

A Christmas message.

As we all are, hopefully, enjoying this time with our families I just wanted to send some love out to everyone. Remember that today is supposed to be about other people and not what you get or want. You're meant to be giving smiles and not just getting them.

Atheists... We know. Jesus was born in the summer, if he existed at all, and it's not really his birthday. We get it. Still, when someone says it's Jesus's birthday we do not require you to correct them. Give it a rest for one day? It's fucking Christmas.

Christians... Stop short-circuiting when people say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas". Not everyone celebrates Christmas. Why not just be happy that it's the time of year where people feel like being nice and not be so focused on their words? After all, it's Jesus's birthday.

Conservatives... Can we give it a rest on Obama being a Muslim for one day? Even if he were, which he isn't, Jesus would have accepted him as a friend regardless. I thought you guys were trying to be like Jesus. What would he do?

Liberals... Take a break from Trump. Eat some turkey. Drink some alcohol. Hug your families. Hope. Maybe we're wrong about him (we aren't) and he'll surprise us (he won't). It'll be good for your soul to get away from that argument for a day. I'm going to try myself but I'm sure I'll end up being a hypocrite before the day is out.

Anyone that is combating racism and bigotry... Do not stop. Especially today. Always call it out. Always stomp it out. Apathy is the warm, dark place in which the deadly fungus of racism grows.

Racists and bigots... Fuck you.

Merry Christmas to all and keep up the good fight.
