Conspiracy Theorists & Religion & White Privilege
Just as Christians and new age conspiracy theorists refuse to see a conspiracy against women, many refuse to see a conspiracy against visible minorities. I don't know any major conspiracy theorist that advocates a GSIG conspiracy against women and/or visible minorities. Not a single one.
But the conspiracy is very real in the past and present. By the end of this article, there should be no doubt in your mind that a GSIG conspiracy against visible minorities exists in the 21st century.
Christian conspiracy theorists like Alex Jones wrongly believes that Christianity ends slavery:
And it was the Christians that began to end slavery and empower women. [1]
Sorry, but both the Union and Confederates are racist and sexist. Prior to the end of slavery, many white Christians believe that slavery is part of the Christian god's plan. Everyone has their place. Sadly, for visible minorities, that place is at the back of the bus.
Prior to 1865, visible minorities are bought and sold as commodities by religious white people. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all have deep roots in the slave trade. Religious believers should keep that in mind when they claim that our god loves everyone equally in the 20th - 21st century.
Even after the civil war, white Christians still continue to see visible minority Christians as inferior beings in the eugenics era. It's really only after WWII does the tide begin to shift. But even then, it still takes another 25 years for most white people (including Christians) to have relative equal relations with visible minorities in general.
The best that major conspiracy theorists can muster is that the global elites want a race war. Yes and no. While GSIGs do want to turn different ethnicities against each other, there's a larger framework where people in WE society continue to see visible minorities as inferior beings. Of course, they don't say such things, but many of them still believe it.
Aside from the race war claims, many white Christian conspiracy theorists believe that white privilege doesn't exist or that they're proud of it. If you're not in the know, allow me to show you what white privilege looks like in the 20th - 21st century:
In 2016 Brock Turner gets 6 months (only serving 3 months) in jail for assault and attempt to rape. [2] He blames the WE college culture of casual sex and drinking. [2] His dad even defends his actions. [3] Both the father and son are scum. In a different world, it would only take one phone call to deal with such garbage privately.
The key thing to remember is that Turner could have gotten 14 years in jail. Why the lenient sentence? Because of his white privileged status. He doesn't get leniency because of his non-criminal past. Visible minorities (and black people especially) who don't have a criminal record would never get such privileged lenient sentences.
In 2017 John RK Howard gets 300 hours of community service with probation for forcible penetration with an object into a black developmentally delayed teenager. [4] If a black student forcibly penetrated a white developmentally delayed with an object, he would be in jail for a long time. The white student doesn't get jail because of his white privilege.
In 2017 Lavinia Woodward will most likely not receive a jail sentence for stabbing her boyfriend with a bread knife because the judge rules that it will damage her future medical career. [5]
Umm...what? This is what white privilege looks like. If a black woman does the same thing against her white boyfriend, you can bet money that she would receive a jail sentence, regardless of her potential medical career.
And just in case you're not in the know, the judges giving out these sentences are usually white. And between these white judges, there's an unspoken agreement. White people have to give other white people a helping hand in the courts in order to rise above inferior visible minorities. Of course, they don't say it like that, but that's what their rulings imply.
And then there are white people who love their white privileged status:
Tal Fortgang (student at Princeton)
"Check your privilege," the saying goes, and I have been reprimanded by it several times this year.
...But I do condemn them for diminishing everything I have personally accomplished, all the hard work I have done in my life, and for ascribing all the fruit I reap not to the seeds I sow but to some invisible patron saint of white maleness who places it out for me before I even arrive. Furthermore, I condemn them for casting the equal protection clause, indeed the very idea of a meritocracy, as a myth, and for declaring that we are all governed by invisible forces (some would call them "stigmas" or "societal norms"), that our nation runs on racist and sexist conspiracies.
...Behind every success, large or small, there is a story, and it isn't always told by sex or skin color. My appearance certainly doesn’t tell the whole story, and to assume that it does and that I should apologize for it is insulting.
...I have checked my privilege. And I apologize for nothing. [6]
Christina Ling (student)
There is really so much more to be said about why "white privilege" is actually quite advantageous and should be respected. As an ethnic minority individual, I'll never really know what it is like to be white, so I can only posit my own conjectures based on my personal experiences and observations of white people. I suppose any of my criticisms would be invalid anyway, as they likely stem from deep-seated jealousy of the white race and an inner longing to be white. I can only hope that my future generations can embrace and perpetuate this "white privilege" by marrying into the race until all traces of my Chinese descent have been dissolved. [7]
Gary Heavin (Chairman of Curves International)
I was a millionaire at 25 from working hard. Then I was bankrupt at 30 for stupid mistakes. But then a billionaire at 50. So I guarantee you, there was no privilege involved...or luck for that matter. The harder I worked the luckier I got perhaps. [8]
Kurt Schlichter (Lawyer and Columnist)
Call: "Check your privilege!"
Response: "What you call 'privilege' is just me being better than you."
They won't like it. It will make them angry. Good. Because tactics like "Check your privilege" are designed to make us angry, to put us off-balance, to baffle us and suck us down into a rabbit hole of leftist jargon and progressive stupidity.
Don't follow them. Mock them.
...The plain fact is that what they understand to be "privilege" is really just what regular people understand is a "consequence." It is a consequence of hard work, of delaying gratification and of sacrifice.
What they say is privilege is what we say is a reward for doing more with our lives than waiting for Uncle Sucker to refill our EBT cards. "Privilege" is a result of not being a human sloth, of not doing drugs, of not having kids we can't afford...
...Check my privilege? I just did, and it's doing great. If you want some privilege too, maybe you ought to get...a job. [9]
Clearly, Schlichter is cracked in the head.
Paul Joseph Watson (Infowars)
I love my white male privilege. [10]
The very word slave is derived from Slav. Slavic white people who were taken as slaves by Muslims in Spain in the 9th century. [11]
Sorry, but the Arab/Muslim slave trade is not about skin color. It's about religion. The transatlantic slave trade and slavery by white people in the past is due to the inferiority of non-whites. And black people tend to be the lowest of the lowest for the global slave trade in the past.
White people in WE countries begin to wind down the slave trade in the 1800s because that's how long it takes for them to finally give a sh*t about the rights of visible minorities (with other countries following).
Sure, you can say that white people end slavery due to religion, but it's global religions that create/justify slavery in the first place. That's how the Problem Reaction Solution (PRS) works.
Alex Jones (Infowars)
And it's time to throw off the guilt...I don't care if you're white, Hispanic, black, most people are mixed, it doesn't even matter. I'm a little bit Native American. What does it even matter? [1]
Alex Jones is a little bit Native American? Oh dear god. I'll deal with this issue in the Aboriginals section.
In regards to the new age movement and extraterrestrials, apparently, many of the loving and benevolent ones are white skinned. An interesting observation.
Black and brown extraterrestrials don't evolve high enough. Sorry. And the TV series Star Trek seems to reinforce these ideologies with the Klingons being brown skinned and uncivilized. Another interesting observation.
Contrary to what you may believe, white privilege is not some mysterious invisible force that permeates society. It's an ideology (non-physical) that exists because of racism.
Allow me to be clear. If you're white and love your white privileged status, your ideologies are racist. Why? Because you're saying that it's okay that visible minorities in the past are suppressed, enslaved, tortured, or killed by white people for the sake of the nation/progress.
On the other hand, white people shouldn’t feel guilty for having white skin. Why not? Because you're born into that white family. You can't really change it (aside from Vitiligo or potential gene editing). But you can change your perception of that white privileged status.
Hence, the distinction of not feeling guilty for being white. But still feeling guilty for the past suppression, enslavement, torture, and killing of non-whites.
And yes, I'm aware that many white people who claim white privilege doesn't exist are Jewish and talk about the holocaust. What happened to their white privilege in the concentration camps? It's a fair question. And that leads us into white people discriminating against white people for various unfalsifiable ideological reasons.
While Jews are discriminated against for thousands of years, it only occurs because of religion (Judaism), not because of ethnicity. It occurs because the Hebrew god says that Jews are the chosen people.
Anytime you're the chosen people, you can expect that all of the other non-chosen people are not going to be happy about your exalted status. Hence, the discrimination against Jews throughout millennia and tapering off in the Enlightenment era (aside from the holocaust).
Using a poker analogy, I'll see your Jews in concentration camps and raise you Jews living a high white privileged status in the Enlightenment era and prior to WWII, serving in the highest public or private sector positions.
After WWII, the overt discrimination against the Jews ends (with minor anti-Semitic flare ups). From then on and continuing today, Jews again reach the highest positions in the public and private sector in WE society. That white privileged status doesn't extend to visible minorities.
Barak Obama wins the US election in 2008 because Bush Jr. f*cks up the country so badly. Any and all change is welcomed and desperately needed then. It's a shame that Obama does little to nothing to help the black community. And they punish him (rightly so) by not voting for Hilary Clinton in the 2016 US election.
While many white people talk about earning minimum wage and working hard as a young adult, a visible minority young adult wouldn't be able to get that same job, let alone complain about the wages. While white people talk about tough times in making ends meet, the credit scores of many visible minorities aren't good enough for mortgages:
Credit reports and scores are not race neutral. Rather, they embed existing racial inequities in our credit system and economy – to the point that a person's credit information serves as a proxy for race.
For decades, banks have systematically redlined black and Latino neighborhoods, refusing to make conventional loans or locate branches in non-white and lower-income areas...
...People and communities of color have been disproportionately targeted for high-cost, predatory loans, intrinsically risky financial products that predictably lead to higher delinquency and default rates than non-predatory loans. As a consequence, black people and Latinos are more likely than their white counterparts to have damaged credit. [12]
However bad the situation is for a white person, it's worse for a visible minority. The poorest white person while have an easier time rising to the top than the poorest visible minority. A white person can be at the right spot at the right time and be promoted or catch a break.
A visible minority in the same spot at the same time won't be promoted or catch that break. A white person that goes bankrupt will be given a second chance to rise to the top. A visible minority that goes bankrupt will not be given that second chance. That's the difference. That's white privilege. If you're still unsure Google "Jane Elliot experiment," and see white privilege in an interesting setting.
Thankfully, the liberal gadfly Bill Maher is aware of white privilege:
...in the last decade 90% of the people who tried heroin for the first time were white...I'd like to remind white people something very important they may have forgotten. You're white. Cheer the f*ck up.
...think of all of the advantages you have. Cops don't shoot you for having your hands in your pockets. When people follow you around a store it's because they want to help you find something. Major party presidential candidates aren’t proposing to deport you.
...You can be a complete f*ckup and people will still hire you. Studies show that white applicants with a criminal record are as likely to get hired as black applicants without one.
...And whites are still first in line for legacy admission to colleges, and businesses, and politics because the well connected parents of white people, tend to be white.
Also, you're more likely to be the boss. Fortune 500 CEOs are 97% white. [13]
Affirmative action and quotas are government tools to combat this white privileged status. Of course, a good deal of white people are up in arms about such policies:
...another 2009 poll, from Quinnipiac, found that 55 percent of voters favored ending affirmative action for minority racial groups in hiring, promotion, and college admissions. But drill down: Just a quarter of whites supported continuing the programs, a whopping 78 percent of blacks did. Hispanics were evenly split.
When someone says that most Americans oppose race-based affirmative action, what they really mean is most white Americans oppose it. [14]
...adult white people don't really care about meritocracy; what they care about is making sure that spots in top colleges are going to white kids, who they assume do better on tests than members of other racial and ethnic groups.
...Half were simply asked to assign the importance they thought various criteria should have in the admissions system of the University of California. The other half received a different prompt, one that noted that Asian Americans make up more than twice as many undergraduates proportionally in the UC system as they do in the population of the state.
When informed of that fact, the white adults favor a reduced role for grade and test scores in admissions...
...White adults only want to play on an even field if they're for sure going to win, like the little white boy who wins at the end of every board game commercial. [15]
A Canada Revenue Agency worker alleges his employer discriminated against him because he had the misfortune of being born a white man.
Joe Bate, 40, is representing himself in the Federal Court case. He claims he was an "efficient and productive" appeals officer for CRA, outshining many of his colleagues.
But instead of being promoted, he says his employer used the Employment Equity Act to pass him over.
...He said the Employment Equity Act was passed in 1986 to ensure inclusion in the workplace of four groups — women, visible minorities, aboriginals and persons with disabilities. But, he said, it excludes "one specific group."
"What a vicious cycle of discrimination," he said. [16]
The Trump administration is preparing to redirect resources of the Justice Department's civil rights division toward investigating and suing universities over affirmative action admissions policies deemed to discriminate against white applicants... [17]
Allow me to be clear. These views are racist. The people may deny it, but to be against affirmative action you're really saying that you love your white privileged status. And if you love your white privileged status, you're really saying that it's okay for white colonizers to suppress, enslave, torture, and kill visible minorities in the past for the sake of development.
Just because you may not be aware of the rational consequences of your racist ideologies doesn’t mean that you’re not responsible for knowing them.
And yes, I'm aware of visible minorities also against affirmative action. But you needn't bother with them. These people are usually ones that have already made it to the top (relatively speaking).
To be fair to Trump, he can argue that he's merely taking a page from California since they prohibit affirmative action in public institutions in the 1990s. Yes, California, the Mecca for liberals bans affirmative action.
While the ban doesn't apply to private corporations like Hollywood or Silicon, you can start to get a sense of why things are they way they are in California in regards to visible minority opportunities.
To be fair to white people, many of them have the same deep seated problems in their childhood like anyone else. We can roll our eyes at their white privilege and mid-high social/economic/financial status. But you need to think from the perspective of a child. As a child experiencing a harsh life, you won't understand white privilege (nor should you).
You only understand the pain that you're experiencing (emotional or physical). And pain is pain. Though we can talk about the unique pain that different people experience, at a basic level, everyone understands pain and can relate to people because of that pain, regardless of socio-economic status or ethnicity.
Visible minorities can roll their eyes at the pain that white people experience. But from the perspective of a child, such an action is disingenuous.
And then there are the conspiracy theorists that advocate foster care for visible minority women considering abortion. Unfortunately, government run foster care isn't any better. Why not? Because many white people and people in general don't want to adopt visible minorities, especially black or brown babies. Why not? One reason is because they're not cute enough.
While most people would never say this out loud, many potential foster parents don't believe that black or brown babies are cute. And no one wants to adopt an ugly baby. Don't believe me about black and brown babies in foster care? See for yourself:
42 per cent of children in the care of the Children's Aid Society of Toronto were black, in a city where only 8 per cent of children are black.
"Throughout the consultations, participants reminded us of the enormous human suffering caused by the systemic racism in the child welfare system," says the report... [18]
If they're lucky enough to get adopted by foster parents (usually white), they'll face the usual stigmas:
Alex Landau, a 25-year-old from Denver, remembers his first racial encounter. He was four years old, an African-American boy scuffling with a white boy on a Denver playground. "And he said 'Not all white kids like to play with black kids;'"remembers Landau.
...Meanwhile Landau spent much of his adolescence gelling his hair straight and wearing long sleeves and pants in the summer to cover up his dark skin..."I think my parents were under the impression that we were living in this post-racial era where police were not racially profiling," says Landau.
...The officers grabbed Landau and started hitting him in the face. When he came to, his blood was all over the grass and he couldn’t see out of his right eye. "Where's your warrant now, you f—ing n—–?"
"It only takes one or two people calling you a n—– to stick. The difference is that when a black person is called a racially charged name, they go home and get the love and support from parents who look like them. I went home and got that same love from people who looked just like my tormentors. This was the beginning of trying to figure white people out. Who are the good ones? Who are the bad ones? How do I know?" [19]
As an Orthodox Jew, I've sensed prejudice at times, but never in a way that I felt harmed me personally. I've never directly felt the impact of systemic racism, and have usually thought about race in the abstract.
That changed after my wife, our children and I welcomed two foster children of color to our family. For the first time in my life, racism has become personal.
...When our white, biological children were born, we were overwhelmed by offers to cook for us, celebrate with us and give gifts to the babies. When our foster children of color arrived, some of the same people became more distant and less supportive. Maybe that's because we’re not their biological parents, but I sense something else. A few times I've ventured out into my neighborhood and felt other people staring — Is he really their father? I could almost hear them thinking. [20]
And god help you if you're black and adopt a white foster care child/children:
As a black father and adopted white daughter, Mark Riding and Katie O'Dea-Smith are a sight at best surprising, and at worst so perplexing that people feel compelled to respond. Like the time at a Pocono Mountains flea market when Riding scolded Katie, attracting so many sharp glares that he and his wife, Terri, 37, and also African-American, thought "we might be lynched." And the time when well-intentioned shoppers followed Mark and Katie out of the mall to make sure she wasn't being kidnapped. Or when would-be heroes come up to Katie in the cereal aisle and ask, "Are you OK?"— even though Terri is standing right there.
...The number of white families adopting outside their race is growing and is now in the thousands, while cases like Katie's—of a black family adopting a nonblack child—remain frozen at near zero.
...African-American parents are still largely viewed with unease as caretakers of any children other than their own...
...The child of a local prostitute, her toddler tantrums were so disturbing that foster families simply refused to keep her. Twelve homes later, Katie was still being passed around.
...Dallas Cowboys All-Pro linebacker DeMarcus Ware and his wife, Taniqua, who faced a barrage of criticism after adopting a nonblack baby last February.
...Katie, too, has sometimes struggled with her unusual situation, and how outsiders perceive it...she's often dealing with normal kid teasing with a nasty edge. "They'll ignore me or yell at me because I have a black family,"... [21]
If you're a visible minority and adopt a white child, be prepared to get dirty looks. On the one hand, it will be an enlightening experience. All of those dirty looks are coming from people with racist ideologies, even if they won't admit it to themselves.
As that foster parent, you may see yourself as taking care of another human being, racist white people see an inferior visible minority responsible for a superior white person. And in their minds, that's a problem.
And those dirty looks will also be coming from racist white Christians and white Christian conspiracy theorists. Even if they don't give you dirty looks, a few days will pass by and you'll get a knock on the door from police and/or social services claiming that there was a typographical error in giving you a white foster child.
To be fair to Western-European (WE) governments, all of them usually treat foster care children in general as garbage. But black and brown foster children have it worse because most foster parents don't want them.
This is one reason why the abortion rate is higher for visible minorities in general. They can see the sh*tty life for their future child or decide that it's better just to end it. I'm not judging. I'm just saying.
Interestingly enough, many visible minorities are Christians and have to deal with the stigma of Christian abortions. But many continue to go forward with the abortion because they know that their future child will have a garbage life in the foster care system. While I'm a 3rd trimester pro-life advocate, I understand why many visible minorities choose abortions instead of adoptions.
As a 3rd trimester pro-life advocate, I err on the side of having the baby and putting them in foster care if necessary. Why? Because it's better to give life the chance to overcome their obstacles.
While 8/10 people won't overcome GSIG conditioning from society, religious, political, or cultural influences, all humans are still capable of overcoming it. Why? Because of consciousness. Consciousness is the one tool that enables people to go beyond their conditioning (see Philosophy of Mind and Philosophy of Society & Culture in Philosophy Reborn Part I: Purpose).
Politics & Education & War
While many people erroneously believe that racism ends in politics with the advent of US President Obama, in reality it doesn't. Aside from Obama not helping out the black community in his 8 year term, his lack of efforts give rise to the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.
Personally, I don't think Americans will ever elect another black or visible minority president within the next decade (unless he's running against a female candidate).
The racist policies of the US government in the past (after the abolition of slavery) are unreal. Aside from eugenics, the right to vote (because the 15th amendment was ignored), and general discrimination, visible minorities have no real say in politics at the highest levels.
In the US, the highest position for a visible minority is on the US Supreme Court. Clarence Thomas and Sonia Sotomayor are the two visible minorities out of nine justices.
In the UK, aside from never having a visible minority prime minister, there isn't a single visible minority on the UK Supreme Court. That's not accidental. That's intentional. Why? Because GSIGs represent a racist power structure where white people are superior to visible minorities.
Only white people can successfully govern the hordes of visible minorities. They should be on their knees thanking us for our tireless efforts.
In Canada, it's the same as the UK. There isn't a single visible minority on the Supreme Court of Canada. And even with all of its political correctness and love for visible minorities, Canada has never had a visible minority prime minister. But it would be interesting if Jagmeet Singh of the NDP becomes the first in Canada's 2019 federal election.
And the lack of visible minorities on the Supreme Court of Canada or as the prime minister isn't accidental. It's intentional. Why? Because the government of Canada is just a British colony under the Queen of England/Canada (see Constitutional Oaths in Whistleblowers: True Patriots of Humanity).
In the eyes of the UK monarchy, visible minorities are inferior to white people. Hence, they can't be allowed to govern. There's no such thing as a visible minority monarchy in all of WE society.
Again, this is a common theme throughout WE society. Yes, there's room for visible minorities at the kids table, but not at the adult table where executive decisions are made. When big money is on the line...when national policy is on the line...visible minorities can't be trusted to govern themselves. Only white people can govern them properly.
Getting back to the US, aside from the horrors of racist policies, in the 1960s and '70s it's black house servants that are responsible for serving white people in the White House (brought out by the 2013 film The Butler).
The fact that black house servants shut their mouths and pretend that they don't have a view on black civil rights is a fine piece of GSIG conditioning. Unethical of course, but you have to give respect when it's due.
While many people paint Trump as a racist, he's not. He just doesn't like government handouts to visible minorities. He wants them to earn it and rise above the odds. What he doesn't realize is that visible minorities can work just as hard but will never be promoted to the top because of their skills.
If they're lucky, they'll be promoted to the top because the corporation needs to fill a quota and present a friendly diverse face to the public/consumers.
But I'm not against quotas/affirmative action either. Why not? Because change never happens voluntarily. White people don't voluntarily give visible minorities equal rights. Visible minorities have to protest and take it by force. After all the protests and death, white people grudgingly give it to them and pat themselves on the shoulder.
The same is true of the corporate hierarchy. Visible minorities are welcome at the bottom rung to fill the diversity quotas. Though I may not like it, these people need these jobs in order to pay rent, utilities, and food bills. Aside from white people not wanting to do various low-level jobs, diversity quotas are the main reason why many visible minorities have jobs.
Ending the quota/affirmative action system, like Trump intends to do, will mean that visible minorities will have to go back to relying on white people's good nature. Yah...no. That's never worked out well for visible minorities in the past and is unlikely to do so in the future.
And just so you know, Trump's efforts to take away affirmative action is not a move from the deep state. It's an action by Trump because one, he's personally against affirmative action (though not racist), and two, he needs almost all white people on his side in 2018 and 2020.
While many white people won't admit it, they want an end to the affirmative action/quota system. Why? Because they currently feel disempowered. Objectively speaking, they're not disempowered, but subjectively, they feel that they are. Anyone who plans to take on racism must understand this point.
Again, some people are racist, while others aren't. The end result (voting for Trump) may be the same, but the reasons why a person votes for him changes the action itself. Philosophy 101/Immanuel Kant 101.
Dinesh D'Souza is correct in his 2016 documentary Hillary's America about past Democrats voting against the abolition of slavery and starting the white supremacist movement. Just as birth control has an ugly past with Margaret Sanger being a eugenicist, Democrats have an ugly pro-slavery past. That's not alternative history, that's history.
While many liberals will call fake new on anything they oppose, a good deal of official history is complete bullsh*t. Sometimes the actions are bullsh*t. Sometimes the end results are bullsh*t. And sometimes the reasons why are bullsh*t.
The tragedy is that all of this bullsh*t history is taught to children in schools as fact. And that's propaganda. But liberals tend to skew their perception of reality when it involves their ideologies. It's for the good of the nation. Again, contrary to what you may believe, conditioning and ideology, not truth, is king, be it in the past, present, and the near future.
Contrary to what you may believe, many liberals are just as racist as white conservatives. Don’t believe me? The evidence is in trade agreements. Aside from all of the criticism about trade agreements, in the end, liberal media outlets will fall into line with GSIG conditioning. GSIGs want trade agreements to destroy national industries. Why? Because corporations are king. Kings have empires, not borders.
But liberal media outlets don’t care about this reason. Generally speaking, they support trade agreements because it supposedly means empowering people in developing nations. And I can understand their argument. Nothing exists over there. Sh*tty jobs are better than no jobs. We'll put pressure on our government/corporations to ensure better conditions. It's not a bad plan. A decent short term solution.
But in the end, it's disempowering. Supporting NAFTA or TPP or other trade deals usually means that production can be outsourced to the cheapest bidder. And the cheapest bidders are in Mexico, India, China, and Vietnam. And most of these workers get low pay, a terrible work environment, and no financial/economic security.
Liberals who support trade agreements are really saying that workers in Mexico, India, China, and Vietnam have a lower value than workers in WE countries. It's like a geographic form of racism.
While I'm sure that many of these workers count themselves lucky, and may even feel empowered in their sh*tty jobs, that's not genuine empowerment. That's just WE society handing scraps to developing nations and workers in developing nations deluding themselves into liking it. All with the support of the liberal trifecta. And that support isn't accidental. That's intentional.
But let's get back to the issue of racism being ingrained in WE governments. Woodrow Wilson (a Democrat) is racist and sexist and is an advocate for white supremacy during his presidency. The same is true of Franklin Delanor Roosevelt (also a Democrat) and Lyndon B. Johnson (also a Democrat).
To be fair, Nixon and Regan are also racist during their terms but hide it to various degrees. Today's Republicans don't like to be surrounded by poor visible minorities. Jesus would weep at their treatment and attitude toward visible minorities.
Prior to the 13th Amendment (1865), slaves (visible minorities) don't count as a full human being (3/5, 60%). Oddly enough, slavery is still allowed in the US prison system. The 13th amendment doesn't apply to low-medium criminals (which are mainly visible minorities).
I don't know of any maximum security prisoners doing hard labor in the fields. But if you commit a low level crime and you’re black, you're back in the cotton fields in the 21st century. That's not accidental. That's intentional.
If most prisons were filled with 90% of white prisoners, you'd see white activists actively trying to repeal that slavery loophole. But since most prisoners aren't white, many white people turn a blind eye to it. That's GSIG conditioning at its best. Unethical of course, but you have give respect when it's due.
And just in case you think that this is an American or North American problem, take a look at all of the leaders in European countries. How many visible minorities do you see at the top? None. And that's not accidental. That's intentional. Why? Aside from the GSIG racism script, many Europeans believe in diversity, but only at the bottom, with white people at the top governing them.
Remember, GSIGs have been suppressing visible minorities for thousands of years, either with chains, whips, bullets, eugenics, soft and hard drugs, aboriginal residential schools, and a lack of opportunities.
The typical white person retort is that visible minorities have the same opportunities as everyone else, and they have affirmative action. And yet, even with affirmative action, white people continue to get ahead while visible minorities stay at the bottom. It even shows up in the education system.
While visible minority teachers will be hired to fill the quota system, they're less likely to be promoted to the top. And even if they are, they'll have to work extra hard to get there, and super extra hard to keep the job. Don't believe me? See for yourself:
Teachers from black, Asian and ethnic minority backgrounds (BME) face an "invisible glass ceiling" that limits them from being taken seriously for senior staff jobs, new figures suggest.
A questionnaire sent out to more than 1,000 BME teachers revealed concerns they were being given projects rooted in stereotypes rather than encouraged to take part in wider teaching roles.
..."(Schools) don't realise that ethnic minority children need role models from their own group," one black secondary school teacher said, giving evidence for the report.
"If the children see SMT [the senior management team] as being all white and the cleaning staff from ethnic minorities, that is all they aspire to be. Especially if they do not see people around them or members of their families in senior positions."
..."Our survey found that BME teachers were not only overwhelmed with the mountain of paperwork but they are also beaten down by the everyday 'microaggressions' in the staff room and the low expectations and support by senior staff in their schools.
"This has led to BME teachers feeling undervalued, isolated and disillusioned with their careers." [22]
Many black teachers across Ontario still face racism on the job, according to a new study of educators, half of whom said they believe being black has hurt their chance of promotion. Some told of hearing the 'N' word used in the staff room and being mistaken for a trespasser.
"I had a supply teacher tell me I am not allowed to park my car in staff parking," said one of the 148 black educators across 12 Ontario school boards surveyed for a report to be released Friday.
...Of the black teachers, principals and vice-principals surveyed, one-third said they believe they have been passed over for advancement because they are black. Some 27 per cent said racial discrimination by colleagues affects their day-to-day work life and 51 per cent said they believe anti-black bias at their school board affects who gets promoted.
...The report included numerous anecdotes of "micro-aggressions...the everyday slights, insults and indignities" that imply black teachers don't belong...
...Another was "told I should steer away from too much black history in the class as black history is not important when no black students are present."
On arriving at a new job assignment, "colleagues asked if I am a new caretaker." [23]
The York Region District School Board (YRDSB) is apologizing to Charline Grant as part of a settlement of the human rights complaint she launched after being called the "N-word" by a former board trustee.
Prior to the racial slur, Grant had come forward with allegations that her son was discriminated against because of his race at his Woodbridge-area school.
Other allegations from other parents surfaced over the past year, leading to a review by the Ministry of Education that in April described a "culture of fear" and found "systemic discrimination" at the school board. [24]
If you're a visible minority teacher at a school with maybe 75% of visible minority students, you have a chance of being the principal or vice principal. But if it’s below 50%, you have no chance. And just in case you're wondering, most principals in Aboriginal communities are white.
And all of this is with affirmative action/quota system. I'm sure that you can imagine what it would be without it. Again, during the civil rights movement, black people don't politely ask white people if they're ready for change.
They don't ask them permission to sit in the white section to be served. They just do it. That's how change happens. Whether it will be a success or not depends on the support or lack of support they receive from visible minorities and white people.
And then there are visible minority students:
A recent study from Northwestern University corroborates Agostini's experience, suggesting that the stress of racial discrimination may partly explain the persistent gaps in academic performance between some nonwhite students, mainly black and Latino youth, and their white counterparts. The team of researchers found that the physiological response to race-based stressors—be it perceived racial prejudice, or the drive to outperform negative stereotypes—leads the body to pump out more stress hormones in adolescents from traditionally marginalized groups.
...What emerges is a picture of black and Latino students whose concentration, motivation, and, ultimately, learning is impaired by unintended and overt racism. [25]
...In many states, school districts that serve minority populations receive less state and local funding. These schools tend to have less-experienced teachers. Students of color face disproportionately tough discipline compared to white students.
...What's more, many black and Latino families report feeling like schools aren't even trying to educate their children. This feeling was particularly acute among black parents, whose kids attend schools with mostly white teachers, with 50 percent reporting feeling this way. [26]
As the theory goes, with white and Asian students consistently at the top of math-achievement rankings—and black and other nonwhite students continuously trailing behind—teachers start to expect worse performance from certain students, start to teach lower content, and start to use lower-level math instructional practices. By contrast, white and Asian students are given the benefit of the doubt and automatically afforded the opportunity to do more sophisticated and substantive mathematics.
..."we're not looking for gifted (students) within predominantly black settings, and we're constantly looking for giftedness in white settings...whiteness is impacting how and where we see mathematics ability." The opposite also holds true, he added, with more targeted interventions for white students who are struggling in math and fewer for black students "possibly because we expect (them to struggle.)"
...For African Americans, for Native Americans, for Latinos in mathematics, we attribute something internally to the child or internally to the culture that's making them achieve lower. We don't do that for white students...producing some deficit idea about who whites are." [27]
And then we have the Flint water contamination. Interestingly enough the budget cuts occur in visible minority neighborhoods. One of the main reasons for the Flint water contamination is racism from municipal officials. They're just poor visible minorities. They'll take whatever scraps we give them.
If you think that this contamination would have occurred in a mainly poor white area, you're deluding yourself. Be it politics, education, or basic essential services, racism is very much ingrained into the power structures in 2017.
And then there's war. When a WE government goes to war, political correctness is paused and white people (in government, industry, and the public) get to vent their racist ideologies as temporarily accepted racism.
Sometimes, all of the political correctness is too much, even for white people. That's a perfect background environment for a war to take center stage. Why? Because a good war is an excellent tool to release suppressed rage and ideologies. It's worked very well in the past and will continue to work well in the future.
In war, people don't have to be nice to each other or politically correct. They can call a black solider a n*gger. They can call an Asian a yellow chink bastard, or a Jew a filthy cheap Jew. While you may think that applies to soldiers, it also applies to the population of the warring governments. War is an excellent tool for the public to vent their racist ideologies.
To be fair, I don't really blame them. As a visible minority, I'm aware that many people have racist ideologies and suppress them on a regular basis. But suppressing core ideologies/emotions will prevent any significant growth and development from occurring in ones lifetime.
These people will be stuck in a politically correct world without growing. And if you're not growing as a human being, the odds of you being happy or making others happy will decline significantly. Don't believe me about war being a release for racist ideologies? See for yourself:
When David Oshiro, who is Okinawan American and grew up in Hawaii, lay wounded and bleeding in Vietnam, his fellow Americans were reluctant to put him on the helicopter.
"I had to whip out my dog tag and say, "I'm an American,' " he said. "They'll get all the black and white guys before they get the Asians out."
...While he was at basic training in Fort Ord, a sergeant asked him and several other Asian Americans to dress up in black pajamas, the get-up of the Viet Cong, to show recruits what the enemy looks like. Oshiro refused.
...Once he got to Vietnam, he said one sergeant seemed to have it in for him, calling him racist slurs, threatening him with a gun, even waking him up in the middle of the night with a bayonet at his throat.
"I still have a lot of anger and rage toward whites who come off with that attitude, a lot of prejudiced attitude," Luke said.
..."A lot of times, black soldiers took them in, protected them, made friends with them, versus people of other ethnic backgrounds... [28]
During World War II composers turned to certain musical forms that, while not popular at the time, reinforced the racist elements found in anti-Japanese songs. Furthermore, songwriters borrowed not only from anti-Asian images but also from African American stereotypes, which popular composers and performers had produced since the nineteenth century. A handful of African Americans, however, also participated in creating racist images of the Japanese, but with their own agenda that was tied to the state of the African American community.
...Popular notions of Japanese religious practices and racial inferiority, as well as child and animal imagery, appeared in anti-Japanese songs. Lyricists glossed over religious differences among Americans in order to present a classic struggle of a good (and apparently Christian) United States against an evil enemy in the form of the "heathen" Japanese...
Consistent with an earlier belief that Asians, particularly immigrants to the United States, represented a "Yellow Peril" that threatened to overcome white populations in the Far West, composers used color to denote the racial difference between the Japanese and Americans and implied that all true Americans were white...
...in the nineteenth century racists frequently represented African Americans and Irish as animal-like to highlight their inferiority…The difference here is that the animals in anti-Japanese music were not to be simply despised; rather, the songs used animal images to help justify killing Japanese. To dehumanize the Japanese enemy, songwriters frequently depicted them as primates, such as "monkeys" and "chimpanzees"...
...the equation of all Japanese with vermin obscured the differences between civilians and the military, as well as between men and women. Through these racialized terms, lyricists and composers justified the systematic extermination of their enemy, allowing the United States to commit unspeakable acts. [29]
Wartime racism was expressed at all levels of American life. Politicians and military men, newspaper cartoons and editorials, regularly depicted the Japanese as apes, monkeys, mad dogs, rats, vipers, bugs, beetles, lice, and other sorts of creatures that needed to be exterminated. War correspondent Ernie Pyle, transferred to the Pacific in February 1945, found that unlike the enemy in Europe, who was "horrible" but still human, here the foe "were looked upon as something subhuman and repulsive"...In a diary note made at Potsdam, President Harry Truman termed the Japanese "savages"... [30]
...the effort to depict Muslims as something other than "real Americans" has long been a centerpiece of the US political climate in the era of the War on Terror. When it was first revealed in 2005 that the Bush administration was spying on the communications of Americans without the warrants required by the criminal law, a Bush White House spokesman sought to assure everyone that this wasn't targeting Real Americans, but only those Bad Ones that should be surveilled (meaning Muslims the Bush administration decided, without due process, were guilty)...
...when the Israelis attacked the Mavi Marmara flotilla in 2010 and killed 9 people including the US-born teenager Furkan Dogan, some conservatives insisted that he was not a Real American because his parents were Turkish and he grew up in Turkey…
...Does anyone doubt that if Obama's bombs were killing nice white British teenagers or smiling blond Swiss infants - rather than unnamed Yemenis, Pakistanis, Afghans and Somalis - that the reaction to this sustained killing would be drastically different?
...the NYPD's shockingly invasive and indiscriminate surveillance program aimed at Muslim communities in New York and New Jersey…Would anyone tolerate having such sweeping surveillance programs infiltrating Jewish or Christian communities in the US? [31]
All of this accepted racism continues in the past with the Soviets and in the present with people in the Middle East, and all visible minorities in WE society today. Every time a bomb kills visible minorities, an angel gives WE people permission to vent their suppressed racist emotions. Every time an Aboriginal youth commits suicide, closet white racists gain an extra spring in their step.
To be fair to these racists, I do recommend venting. I don't believe in censorship of any kind, even ones that are hateful and directed toward me personally or me as a visible minority. Why not? Because it's a genuine action.
A racist pretending not to be racist is a disingenuous action. And the disingenuous life is not worth living. Why not? Because no significant growth and development can occur.
If you're racist and super rich, live a luxurious lifestyle with a high social status but pretend not to be racist...you'll never experience any significant growth and development in your lifetime. As a philosopher, my allegiances are to objective falsifiable science and ethics (which is a grey area).
But as a human being, the genuine growth and development of humanity and individually are very important to me. And racists can't be genuine if they're pretending that they're not racists.
Science & Medicine
I've covered scientific racism in a few of my books (see Philosophy of Science in Philosophy Reborn Part I: Purpose and Racism in Part II: Social Humanities). But I'll quickly summarize a few things and touch on a few other things. I'm already over 13,000 words and this is only the third subsection. Christ.
Just in case you're not in the know, most white people for all of time have been racist toward visible minorities, and that extends to science and medicine. Aside from racist philosophers, racist scientists and doctors are the norm in the past and still exist today.
Google "racist scientist" or "racist doctor" and the results will speak for themselves. Eugenics of the past (started by WE scientists, not the Nazis) is just ideological scientific racism in action.
And yes, Margaret Sanger (the founder of Planned Parenthood) is a racist. No amount of political correctness from liberal media outlets (Washington Post and HuffPost) is going to change that. It's a complicated legacy.
Sorry, but racism isn't complex. It's very simple to understand. She was a product of her time. Sorry, but that's not a legitimate reason. Why not? Because consciousness is able to go beyond all conditioning. No ideology is set in stone.
In 2009 Hilary Clinton (as US Secretary of State) accepts a Margaret Sanger award. [32] That's not exactly the best move to gain visible minority votes in 2016. While Planned Parenthood today is NOT a racist institution, the rates for abortions by visible minorities are much higher than white women:
An African-American woman is almost five times likelier to have an abortion than a white woman, and a Latina more than twice as likely, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Largely missing from the debate, though, is discussion of abortion's racial disparity: Although rates among Hispanic and African-American women have decreased along with the rest of the country, they remain significantly higher than the national average. [33]
Kudos to the Atlantic for touching on the issue. Most liberal media outlets turn a blind eye to the issue. And no, it's not that white women are having less sex then visible minorities. In WE society, women of all ethnicities are having (more or less) the same amount of sex and using the same amount of birth control measures (aside from Aboriginal women).
And yet, the birth control campaigns are more targeted to visible minorities. Your child will have a sh*tty life if you let them live. You don't want that. Just end it and move on with your life. Of course, they don't say that out loud, but that's what they believe.
What they're really saying is that we want more beautiful white people to be born because white people are superior to all other races. While such words are unspoken, they exist nonetheless. And ignoring that existence is what prevents significant growth and development from occurring in regards to racism. Political correctness and censorship will never lead to the end racism.
While I advocate for radical dualism as a solution (see Racism in Part II), if people aren't willing to listen, racism will forever be part of humanity's destiny.
It doesn't matter if humanity starts to explore the stars and finds intelligent sentient life. Yes, we'll move forward in theory, but our level of consciousness will remain the same as it is today and in the past.
To be fair, I can understand white people wanting less visible minorities to be born in WE society. As a brown visible minority I see more brown people than I want to see on a daily basis in Toronto. In the past, I even go to Rome and walk into a pizza shop and see Sri Lankans behind the counter. Their first question is...where you from my friend?
Oh dear lord.
Why are you here? How did you get here? I came here to see beautiful white people and their culture. Of course, I don't say such things out loud. While I strive to live a genuine life, from time to time my actions are disingenuous as well.
Aside from abortion and higher rates of c-sections for visible minorities (see Infertility & Pregnancy in Part V), racism exists in the supposed amoral world of WE medicine. Don't believe me? See for yourself:
The number of clinical trials in developing countries has surged in recent years but the legal and ethical frameworks to make them fair are often not in place...
...For the pharmaceutical industry, the attractions are the lower costs and the availability of "treatment-naive" patients, who are much less likely to have been previously exposed to drugs or trials.
..."Less stringent ethical review, anticipated under-reporting of side effects, and the lower risk of litigation make carrying out research in the developing world less demanding,"
...Places such as South Africa – where mostly vulnerable poor with low literacy levels are recruited and the culture is to accept authority without question – are fertile land for ethical misconduct... [34]
The report included the case of clinical trials in Uganda between 1997 and 2003, when women taking the anti-transmission drug Nevirapine experienced thousands of serious adverse effects (SAEs). These symptoms went unreported and testing was allowed to continue, resulting in the (also unreported) deaths of 14 women. In Hyperabad, India in 2003, eight test subjects died during the testing of the anti-clotting drug Streptokinase. The worst part, though, was that the subjects did not even know that they were part of a trial.
...In Kano, Nigeria Pfizer tested a new drug called trovafoxacin on children infected with meningitis without informing their parents; five died in treatment. While this case dates back to 1996, deceptive research practice is still alive and well.
...patients from India's lowest caste…placed in drug trials without their informed consent…The power of the white coat, the elevated role of the doctor throughout the world as a demi-God who has the power to save lives, is one that is being taken advantage of in India where doctors enroll their trusting and often uneducated patients in risky drug trials, at a profit of course. These trials led to 438 deaths in 2011 alone. This kind of misinformation will not show up in the data released by GSK. [35]
...It is well-established that blacks and other minority groups in the U.S. experience more illness, worse outcomes, and premature death compared with whites...
...Doctors take an oath to treat all patients equally, and yet not all patients are treated equally well. [36]
You need to remember that prior to the last 50 years, most WE doctors and scientists believe that visible minorities are inferior to white people and should be treated as such (regardless of their medical oath to do no harm).
And let's not get into doctors that work for intelligence/military agencies and oversee various forms of enhanced interrogation. Their oath is worth less than the paper it's written on.
While many WE doctors today don't cause harm, they intentionally turn a blind eye to visible minority patients in pain relative to white people in pain. And that's not accidental. That's intentional. Why? Because many WE doctors and scientists hold racist ideologies and refuse to believe that it's a problem.
