White privilege is a beast. It is an innate, naturally concocted following…it is therefore hard to extricate oneself from its snares.
―Don Okolo
Man has disintegrated badly; his mind is still functional in the sense that it still wants to satisfy the musings of those like him. But the rest of him has acquired real estate in the pit of squalor where he now sits in comfort writing essays of disdain and mischievous husbandry in his various bids to conquer those he believes he had under leash, lock and key.
To him, it is a badge of honor. Five hundred years and counting, and he has learned nothing from the recorded evils of the iniquities of men. El Duce, Stalin, and Adolph Hitler are the generals he emulates…and he would attempt to outdo them in his various schemes to bring the rest of humanity to her knees. As I see it, the next big thing, as in the annihilation of swats of people in any given region, is around the corner. I have taken stock…and the mind of man is afflicted badly, deranged, and devoid of empathy.
The reasons behind these failings are not driven by financial gains, but by sheer fanaticism. It is the heartlessness quotient that compels it…that propels the monstrosity into a full throttle dwarf behemoth we see screaming like one million banshees.
Every day that passes, an evil entity is born, it seems. Proud Boys and QAnon in this case, evil twins, one with a pronounceable name, and the other with a caricatured name only the parent who bore her would love. They were born, we were told, under easy, no labor pains. Both are on the political scene threatening to usurp the delicate balance of the political order, monkeying up collisions the world depends on to run smoothly if we did not drop belligerence and join them in their quest…like a threat from the Prince of Darkness, Lucifer, threatening to unleash his minions on the Christian community if we failed to denounce Jesus.
I am certain this is the year that owns the Proud Boys and her evil sister, QAnon.
The year 2020 would live in infamy. I am certain it is the year that owns the Proud Boys and her evil sister, QAnon. I have never heard of these quail-tipped porcupines until just a few months ago. And now, it is said, they have exported their immorality and wickedness to Australia and other white dominated polities the world over…for subjugation…and intimidation of those that disagree with their politics. A new world order could be rearing its ugly head, and the United States of America would be the kill-center, the epicenter where men would mow down men to maintain white power and privilege.
When a similar power was created back in the sixties to match the various organizations sprouting within the white community, the FBI mowed them down. Remember Stokey Carmichael and the Black Panther…the black organization formed as a tit for tat against all that white people’s shenanigans and nonsense? The History of the white man’s intimidation tactics is classic and 101. With the growing promise of the millennials threatening their majority, they are morphing into other deadlier forms, changing tactics to suit their new ways. A Rose by any other name… They don’t call themselves by those lethal names that would give their intentions away. Subtlety becomes a virtue…even as these men and women carry pitch forks to rival that which Satan had popularized. The Proud Boys and QAnon are cool nomenclatures designed not to offend…and they are parading the streets of America with AK.47s and semi-automatics because they have been told to stand by, by the United States President in the event he would need them to rise from their boondocked dilapidation and strike at the heart of Innocence. It is scary, but then, it ain’t too scary.
Something finally brought a smile to my set, unresponsive facial muscles. A platoon of badassery, Stokey Carmichael imbued, in-your-face dudes in camouflage gear. AK-47s and semi-automatics in tow, with a name that would make the freaking devil cringe and drop down into his hellhole, his heart about to leave its protective cage, as he waited for these guys to pass. Their earth-shaking stomp is legendary. They threaten no one out there protesting peacefully.
NFAC is the name. NFAC is black. NFAC is a motherfather. And NFAC stands for Not F4&%#^@ Around Company…I guess.
NFAC is the name. NFAC is black. NFAC is a motherfather. And NFAC stands for Not F4&%#^@ Around Company…I guess. It will not be long before those in law enforcement and in the white house to brand them anarchists; that they are an arm of ANTIFA. There is this African black bird that flies all day and never once takes a break from flying at great speeds nonstop. He was asked about the antics, and his reply was bombastically terse and direct; men have learned to shoot without missing, and I have learned to fly without perching. It is so with NFAC. White people have long stood insistent and overpowering over the shadow of blacks everywhere, and we have learned the finer nuances of the art of intimidation from their own mistakes and unnatural meanness.
Have you ever wondered why the KKK and all white supremacy groups have been allowed to fester even as the FBI deemed these groups as domestic terrorists, even as the constitution of the United States clearly states that the State, the Union, that is, must protect its citizens from terrorists domestic and foreign? Was it not why they singled out the Black Panther movement and summarily crushed them in the crib?
White privilege is a beast. It is an innate, naturally concocted following…it is therefore hard to extricate oneself from its snares.
You may not agree with its most simple, common answer; it is because those lawmakers believe that this is a white nation first…and hence, the seeking out of white people for annihilation, as controversial as it is, would never happen. Should a white supremacist group band together in a Dylan Roof single package and badge into an enclave of black people and mow one hundred of us down, the Union would wax plentifully the immorality of it, mourn with us for one thousand days, sing along with us, Amazing Grace, and never would outlaw the organizations the sonsofbitches belong to.
White privilege is a beast. It is an innate, naturally concocted following…it is therefore hard to extricate oneself from its snares. Blacks do not have such despicable brew to drink from, such luxury to fawn and gloat in. It is like Helllands Bourbon…and the cauldron is sweet to the taste until it passes through your guts.
The Tea Party goons did the same very thing when Obama was President. Each time Obama spoke in a public square these people came out in droves with guns, like bats out of caves, to taunt the one black man they hated the most. We took all that in strides; we never really understood the underhandedness behind their scheme. They ratchetted it up, portraying the President of the United States as a gorilla in one stint. Totally forgetting that the man they were goading was himself half-white. It implied that fifty percent of that gorilla/president was of them. Now, they have found a clean-cut, bloodhound…a harebrained, blueblood conman to do their bidding. And they do not see the gorilla in him. His hands in the broth is where to start looking…let me know what you find.

Glad you see what I see. Stay the course bro am with ya. But how do we save our brothers who are not seeing what’s so obvious and applauding this dude?
