I completely realize that you rightwing pen hoes get money to post your stupid comments. You don't even have enough respect for your views to post them unless you're getting paid so that says all that has to be said about the level of integrity you have for your idiotic points of view. Plus, you are so stupid that you don't even understand that your close attention to this site, inspite of your false efforts to post comments that attempt to display your mental superiority to the movements for social justice, provides clear proof that you are all very worried in deed about this movement and the momentum it is creating among millions of people across this world. I know you scum are concerned because you don't even have the intellectual capacity or the moral integrity to develop and supply a plausible response to the issues. Instead, all you do is issue personal threats against me while leveling absolutely ridiculous accusations. It's ok though because I get a big kick out of causing you rats so much irritation just by telling the truth. This occupy movement is catching on worldwide fools and the truth is you are here because there is absolutely nothing you can do to stop it. So you continue to post stupid comments here attacking Obama when I've made it clear I'm neither a democrat or republican. I don't support Bush or Obama. I support the people and socialist revolution. So for all you sick rightwing gun nuts who think you are doing something by threatening me please don't be confused. I am providing 100% respect for this non-violent movement for civil disobediance, but that's not my philosophy. Make your threats, but if any of you attempt to carry them out, understand you get one shot. Then its my turn fools and unlike you all, I'm no coward.
The occupy movement throughout the U.S. isn't just young hippies, although they are involved. It isn't just homeless people, although they are involved. It isn't just political radicals, although they are involved. It isn't just anarchists, although they are involved. It isn't just White people either and the people are definitely being non-violent and peaceful. This movement is all of the above, plus women, students, working people, elderly people, people of color, people born outside the U.S. How do I know? Because I am participating here in Portland, Oregon, where I live. I was there Saturday night and Sunday morning. I saw the police attack people who were behaving in a peaceful, non-aggressive, and passive fashion. I wasn't on the protestors line because I'm not willing to subscribe to the honored tactic of non-violence. If one of those gestapos were to touch me it's on and crackin! So, I served as an observer and I observed their barbaric behavior. Now, I'm really not interested in the stupid comments that you rightwing writing hoes will post, but for those of you who are reasonably minded individuals, I just have questions for you? Why is it even necessary for police to use force against a peaceful demonstration? Why is it necessary for hundreds of police to even be present at a peaceful demonstration? There were so many cops present, if I was a criminal here I would have looked at Saturday night and Sunday as a free pass to commit crime against people because the police had attacking peaceful demonstrators who were protesting the evils of capitalism as their priority. Then, I watched the media and the police, working hand in hand to protect the interests of their capitalist bosses, conspiring to portray the occupy movement here as being a bastion of homelesses and crime. This was the reason they used to evict the protestors from the parks in the first place. I'm sure all of you understand pretty well that homelessness, drug abuse, and all the related petty crimes were here in plentiful supply long before the Occupy movement. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that since the occupy movement feeds people and provides medical services for free, it's going to attract those folks who can't get those basic services anywhere else. So it's intellectually and morally bankrupt to blame those problems on the occupy movement. All the movement did was expose those problems that were already well in existence. For that the movement should be praised since that's a major part of why this movement came about in the first place. And, to those who complained about your park being unavailable, no progress ever occurs without a sacrifice. I'm sorry you had to sacrifice your lunchtime meditation session in the parks for five weeks, but there are much more important issues than your personal comfort. In fact, maybe it's a good idea that you were uncomfortable. Whatever it takes to wake you up that there's a problem. Finally, don't be a hypocrite. Whatever gains come from the occupy movement or any movement that struggles against oppression, at least be honest and acknowledge the gains you benefit from as a result of other people's sacrifices. It was the Communist Party USA that initially raised the idea of the eight hour work day in America. They were the ones who called for worker's compensation, sick leave, paid vacation, and social security and aide to families with dependent children. The FDR regime highjacked their ideas and created the New Deal shich was passed in 1945. So all you anti-communists out there......Since you deplore anything to do with social advancement, I fully expect you to work 20 hour days and give back all those benefits you didn't struggle for since you have such hatred towards the people who did. But, I guess that's the problem with a society that calls crooks who stole land and people heroes. It sets a precedent. It creates an environment where anything you can convince people of becomes truth regardless of how reprehensible and criminal it is. Big respect to those who are participating in the occupy movement. Continue to participate and take the next step and either join or create permanant organizations struggling for justice! For those not interested and willing to do that.......At least help the pollution problem by keeping your ignorant mouths shut. Unlike the rightwing pen hoes who regularly write the stupid comments they are paid to write, I don't get paid to express my political point of view. I would never want to get paid because I don't do this for money. I do it because of my passion for justice. It's that passion that has taught me to look at things analytically. For the last ten years we have been unindated with cries to support the troops who are serving in the U.S. military. I think it's time we broke down exactly what that means and what it doesn't mean. First, let's retrace the history. As a result of the rude treatment U.S. military personnel received from anti-Vietnam war protestors, the minds that craft propaganda learned a couple of things from the Vietnam war that unofficially ended in 1975. They learned not to show the U.S. people many visuals of the war ala dead U.S. troops. Thus, you have seen virtually no images of dead U.S. service people in the media. Then, they learned to pump this campaign to portray U.S. troops as heroes and people who should be venerated for their service. Now it's not my intention or desire to use this forum to attack those in the military because I understand that U.S. capitalism provides very little options for working class people and therefore uses military service as motivation, using benefits, to recruit people who often see themselves as having no other options to create a job and career for themselves. That process comes with intense propaganda about how wonderful it is to be in the military. You can see this from the constant stream of commercials in magazines, on television, etc. promoting a career in the U.S. military. So although I believe them to be misguided, I understand why people join the military. The purpose of this post is to expose the false declaration of support for these working class people by the capitalist supporting right (and left) wing elements in this country that truly support imperialism. Besides the point that no U.S. military action is engaged in for any reason beyond corporate profits (not freedom or any of the other lies they always tell), it's important that I note that it has always been the African (Black) service vets who have encouraged....No......Demanded that I not ever consider joining the military. The first one was my own father who was drafted during the Vietnam war in the 60s. From day one he strongly condemned the racism in the military and he told me that if I ever considered joining he would disown me. He wasn't serious about the disowning part, but even if he was, the concept of joining never once occurred to me because I was blessed to be in an environment with lots of people like him. These brave and courageous souls articulated to me and thousands of other disenfranchised African youth in ghettos like the one I was in that racism was the byproduct of U.S. capitalism. They explained to me that up until the Vietnam war U.S. military practices were segregated. What that meant was during WWII, when African troops fought courageously and died, they could not enjoy the quality of treatment that even captured German troops enjoyed. This was along with the fact that in the country they lived in, they were not permitted to enjoy the right to vote, live where they wanted, work where they were qualified, or have any of the freedoms they were supposedly fighting for Europeans to have in Europe. This contradiction crystalized during the Vietnam war and the contradiction was picked up by Nguyen Al Thoc, better known as Ho Chi Minh, the leader of the Vietnamese resistance, who actually went to shcool at Columbia University and lived in Harlem, New York. As a result, Nguyen knew and experienced first hand the racism in U.S. society and he used that knowledge to regularly send that message to Black U.S. trooops in Vietnam. The Vietcong would release Black troops with this message often, similar to how the Allatolah Khomeini released Black hostages in 1980 at the U.S. Embassy in Iran. What's my point? It's that these Black troops figued out that it didn't make any sense for them to put their lives on the line fighting for freedom for other people when they didn't have it here in their own country of birth. So, those troops came back and joined the Black Panther Party and other organizations fighting for justice. Geromino Ji Jaga (RIP), was a purple heart receipient who served in Vietnam in 1967, 68. He came back and organized in L.A. He was illegally convicted of an FBI trumped up charge in 1972 and spent time in prison until 1997 when he was released. The FBI had to subsequently admit its illegal activity to frame brother Geronimo in an attempt to curtail his political work and they paid out a $4.5 million settlement in 2000. His story is just one of many. The point being if there was any real legitimacy to these wars than people like him could not exist. Also, if people truly supported these troops they would start first with those thousands who are homeless, unemployed, and desolate on the streets. Then they would fight to block the criminal attempts to take away these people's benefits once they return from these wars broken down physically and mentally. They don't do that. Instead they criticize people like me who point out the contradictions. The reason for this is they really don't care a rat's behind about the troops. In fact, when most of them wear those "support the troops" shirts and have those bumper stickers, what they are really saying is "go over there...fight....and die if you have too.....just keep me from having to sacrifice any of the comforts I enjoy from the suffering of the masses of people on the planet..Stop those people from fighting to control their resources because if we can't steal them....Then I have to live like they do....You." It's a sad, sad reality, but one that's so true. So for you two bit writing hoes who are only willing to express opinions that you are paid to express, if you want to spout your simple minded pro-industrial military complex rhetoric I have plenty of Black veterans who I can introduce you too.......Of course on this, like any intelligent challenge, you sorry people will respond with the same empty analysis that your pathetic political positions contain. In spite of having a masters degree in economics, the information obtained in this post didn't come to me through any of those studies. Instead, this is the result of the extensive political education program of the All African People's Revolutionary Party. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) was founded in 1944 in Bretten Woods, New Hampshire. The IMF was founded as a so-called independent banking source to provide the infusion of capital into developing economies around the world. That's their official mission, but if you study their body of work, it becomes obvious to the informed observer that the primary objective of the IMF is to finance the interests of international capitalism. Approximately 50% of the IMF's budget is financed by the U.S. So, like the United Nations, which is also financed by capitalist countries, it's naive to think those insititutions are there to serve the interests of underdevloped countries. Take the case of Zambia, Southern Africa for example. Zambia is a country of a few million people. Approximately four out of ten people in Zambia are HIV positive or have full blown AIDS. The country's national budget is overwhelmed with an IMF loan to finance a hydro-electric plant that is actually owned by European firms. So consequently, the Zambian government pays the equivalent of $30.00 per person to service this IMF debt that does nothing, and will do nothing, to benefit the Zambian people. At the same time, the Zambian government pays only $15.00 per person for HIV medications, something that would directly benefit the people of that country. I can give you examples like this in Africa and South America all day long, but the point is the IMF is nothing, but another pimp run entity of imperialism to pimp the people of the planet. These are the things that people in other countries are upset about. They don't have a problem with you because they know you don't make policy decisions, but they are getting increasingly upset at your unwillingness to even understand what's happening not to mention doing anything about it. There is so much information available about these types of injustices. I only encourage you to investigate it for yourself. Don't be closed and narrow minded like the write for money hoes who comment on this blog. It's your responsibility to see right through stupid comments like I can only write because of military actions overseas. Anyone who says something that stupid I would invite to walk down Third Street in San Francisco where I grew up and see how safe you are and how safe U.S. military action in Iraq is making you when one of the many victims of capitalism finds you and ganks you....What a joke. If people had any real concern for U.S. military personnel they would be trying to get them away from these wars where they are only fighting and dying for the interests of criminal entities like the IMF. I highly recommend that all who want a perspective of this movement to watch this video on utube at www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8800ULDxB1o&feature=playerembedded If you have trouble with the above link, search under "Occupy Wall Street" on utube. One interesting point I want to express is that this video about the U.S. occupy movement came to us within the A-APRP in the U.S. from our West African comrades. This isn't uncommon though. My travels overseas alerted me a long time ago that there is much more information about events in the U.S. circulating outside the U.S. than inside. Now watch the enemies of humanity attack the video with baseless charges. Isn't it interesting how when it's people in Egypt, Libya, or Syria rising up, then they are freedom fighters, but when it's people here doing the it, they are terrorists, thugs, dirty, unemployed, lazy....You get the point. If it wasn't so incredibly sad it would be hilarious how much intellectualism, academic research skills, and critical analysis and thinking skills have been replaced in this society by arrogant ignorance, self righteousness, and a complete disregard for truth and justice. There are literally thousands of people who visit this site each month. I am thankful to you for taking the time to visit, but I want to ask you to do my a favor. Please take a moment to click on the comments tab and review the level of ignorant comments that are directed at my blog posts here. Pay attention to the tactics these paid rightwing prostitutes utilize. Some attempt to be articulately calm in expressing their narrow minded confusion while others are belligerent. Either way they consistently criticize the points I make (which is what they are paid to do) while never once offering even an attempt at presenting any type of analysis to substantiate their absurb points of view. For example, I'm honest when I write and when I act. So, I'm honest with you all, telling you about my membership within the A-APRP and my pro-socialist perspective and work. I could be a lying whore like the Herman Cains of the world that these strange people emulate, portraying myself as one thing while molesting women undercover, but in spite of these people's ridiculous assertations, I'm an honest, hardworking, educated, committed family man activist for peace and justice. So, since they can't refute a single thing I advocate, they instead focus on appealing to scare words like communism. My objective isn't to scare you. It's to challenge you to think and learn more. Ask yourselves honestly if you have ever studied anything seriously about communism? Have you traveled to any country seriously seeking to achieve communism? Would you even know how to properly identify such a country? I know the sad individuals who comment here can't properly identify such a country because they incorrectly and ignorantly label the former Soviet Union as communist. I realize the USSR called themselves a socialist country (they never called themselves communist because even Stalin understood that communism hadn't been achieved yet....Still, the USSR was far from socialist. State capitalism would be the correct definition for the former USSR). So these ignorant mercenaries depend upon your ignorance to not be qualified to catch the contradictions in their well crafted, but ignorant and grossly incorrect posts. They praise terrorists like senator mccarthy who terrorized people like W.E.B. Dubois, the first African to graduate from Harvard and the famed scholar who helped found the NAACP in 1909. McCarthy was the forerunner to COINTELPRO which ruined lives, improperly and illegally imprisoned innocent people simply for their political beliefs, and in the case of Fred Hampton, Mark Clark, and others, out and out murdered people to stop them from spreading their political influence. We of course know COINTELPRO was the forerunner for the present so-called Homeland Security Administration. These sick people who post here would label McCarthy as a hero. They would also try and label me as misguided without even being able to give you one tidbit of evidence to confirm why and how I am misguided beyond the fact they label me a communist (which is a good word to me....A bad one to them. The difference is I can explain to you why it's good in spite of the anti-communist propaganda in the U.S. over the last 90+ years while they have no arguments....Just accusations). They come on here and label me as a "Black racist" when I have had White comrades for years when most of them are so racist they can't honestly say they have ever even been in a prodominantly Black crowd at any time in their racist lives. I'm not trying to tell anyone how to think. I don't need to do that. All I have to do is exactly what I'm doing. Obviously the vermon who follow me here agree because they are following me, not the other way around. They're doing that first because they are paid prostitutes....Paid by big money to post confusion on progressive blog sites. They also do it because they don't want you thousands of people every month to read these words and grow intellectually. They don't want that because they know if you grow intellectually....Your action will also grow.....And that means eventually we will win! Remember Ghandi's prohetic words...."First they ignore you.....Then they ridicule you....Then they try to destroy you.....Then you win!" Read what I write. Then I strongly encourage you to read the words of the clowns who attack me here. Read any and everything. Unlike them, I'm not for censorship. I'm for open debate because I know I'm more than strong enough to take on any five of them at once. My heroes are people like Malcolm and Nkrumah. Their heroes are people like Reagan.....The same Reagan who was so lazy he had hired aides (tax money) act out morning briefs because he didn't want to read them....The same Reagan who saw 29 Black Panthers legally walking on the California Capitol lawn on 5/2/67 to enter the capitol and ran like a little boy....Leaving the children he was talking to standing there.....What a hero.....What a cowboy.....What an idiot........I could on and on, but you get my point. They will read this and they won't be able to refute any of the truths displayed here so instead they will resort to their usual intimidation tactics of threats and accusations....They are so pompous, self righteous, ignorant, and arrogant that they aren't even capable of seeing their threats and stupid accusations have absolutely no impact on someone like me or you.......It's ok though. As Che said, we do what we do out of love. When some of them finally wake up, they can come on the justice side. We won't hold a grudge. For the rest of them, I'm still waiting for their hollow threat to arrange a debate between me and some of their rightwing idiot puppet Black heroes. I told them I would waive a speaking fee to debate any and everyone they can produce. They made the threat, but when I responded, of course nothing......Nothing except the paycheck they get for doing this and the continued ignorance they are depending upon to insure their masters stay in charge. My knowledge and understanding of how the banking industry in this capitalist society works comes from studying it over the last three decades, receiving a masters degree in Economics from Sacramento State University, and working in the community banking and credit union industries in an executive capacity for as long as I could stand it......Understanding the mortgage meltdown isn't very difficult. If you have a mortgage loan then without knowing you I can tell you that the bank that originally approved your loan is not the same bank that services your loan today. Why? What happened is the greedy capitalist investors who purchase securities on the secondary market that was managed by Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac, encouraged banks to approve higher risk loans. This is how the stated income phenomenon became so common. The banks weren't concerned about booking these suspect loans because they knew they would sell them the very next day. The investors encouraged them to batch up these high priced loans (high interest rates) which of course increased the profit margin. The investors purchased these batched loans and they were quickly unloaded. All of this could happen before you made your first payment. So when you became unable to pay your mortgage the investors couldn't care less because they had already made their money. Besides, these corporate bandits knew the banks would be bailed out.....By you, me, and every working person by the stimulus package! Just a quick lesson on how this thing goes down. So don't blame people because they got foreclosed on. Banks have a responsibility to only put solid loans on the books. If you come to me to borrow money and I know you can't pay it back, but I give it to you anyway, whose fault is it really? Next we'll talk about finance capital in the underdeveloped world....primarily the international monetary fund's impact in Africa.............For you simple minded racists....Can you try and be a little more original? The stuff you are posting is boring, regurgatated garbage from the 50s...C'mon...."Recruited by communists?"......You must be able to do better than that tired out McCarthy argument. The increasingly open and unashamedly ignorant racist comments reguarly received to these blogs is clear proof that we are striking a nerve among the weak minded White right. This is funny to me. What's funny is I post infromation on this blog and all these creampuff idiots can do is respond by yelling obsenities racial epithets. Unfortunately for them, I am such a product of racist amerikkka that they are much too late if they think they can upset or offend me. I've been called racist names by racists far superior than the lightweight scum responding here. It's also funny how they are so weak with their racist coaxing that they make grand sweeping statements that are totally off the mark (the sure sign of desperation). For example, these racists redneck cavemen tell me I'm the product of affirmative action education and that they, White people I guess, have paid for my education. Well if that's how I was supposed to have gotten my degrees somebody forget to tell me. If they had I wouldn't have worked fulltime through college. But if these ignorant fools are right than you White folk owe me about $40,000 that I spent on my BS and MS degrees and another $60,000 I've spent on my daughter's education. So I have a question for you klansmen How do I collect my affirmative action money? Like every other intellectual point I've raised, I don't expect you to answer. Just keep burning your crosses. It's clear you really don't want to debate. Seems as if what you are really doing is compensating for something? I'm not talking about idiots like Ann coulter or rush limbaugh, although their rightwing hoes, no doubt. I'm talking about people who are paid by rightwing groups like Citizens United and the Heritage Foundation to follow blogs like this one and write antagonistic comments. You can always tell a rightwing hoe because these people are not even slightly informed on the issues they comment on so typically, their comments don't even address what the blog post is about. For example, if the post is an anti-racist post, if they have a legitimate ideological disagreement with the sentiments expressed in the post, wouldn't they post what that is? Wouldn't they post something to invalidate the argument being posted? Of course they would, but you won't see that with these people. Instead they just accuse the writer of incorrectly making an accusation of racism. They use that strategy because they are targeting a specifc audience and it isn't the masses of African people because they know we will never be rightwing besides the few tokens like Herman lame and Clarence tom-ass. They are targeting White people because they hope to appeal to your insecurity about race by appealing to what Malcolm X called your "Whiteness" by trying to make you think you have something to be offended about when African people talk honestly and truthfully about the racist structure of the U.S. If you feel that you do I feel sorry for you. When women talk about sexism I'm not offended. Instead I humble myself so I can hopefully learn something. The sure sign of insecurity is to be defensive when someone genuinely expresses the pain of their suffering. And understand that people typically don't express pain in a structured quiet way. Now, although you don't post comments, I hear from plenty of you well informed and honest White people and I appreciate that. It would be good if some of you would challenge this movement to hire paid hoes to perpetuate rightwing racist ideology. Why do they have to pay people? I would never waste my time even reading reactionary rightwing racist blogs, not to mention commenting on them on a regular basis. Why? Usually their information is so stupid and I know the majority of the audience I'm writing for isn't reading there. So that's who they are and what they do. As for me, my statement to those hoes is make sure you wear your white sheet when you go out in public because you may be fooling eachother, but African people know who you are and what you believe in (and many other people do as well). All you do is continue to do what you have done historically, behave in a cowardly and dishonest fashion in your desperate last ditch effort to protect a dying system that more and more people every day are becoming aware must change. Yeah....We'll celebrate veterans day, but you celebrate your vets and we'll celebrate ours. There are many I could choose. The courageous women and men of the Black Panther Party, Convention People's Party, Congolese National Movement, Democratic Party of Guinea, African Party for the Independence of Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde, Pan-Africanist Congress of Azania, South Africa, Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, Universal Negro Improvement Association, American Indian Movement, etc......Their all worthy and they are to be honored, but for this post we'll select the Land and Freedom Movement, or what is properly called the "Mau Mau" movement. Founded around 1953 in Kenya by Fred Butau, Dedon Kimatchi, and others, these brave African women and men organized a guerilla movement to run the British out of control in Kenya. Their example served to light the fire under the African independence movement which in turn greatly influenced the U.S., European, and Caribbean civil rights and Black Power movements. Veteran's Day and the U.S. military? Naw.....I spend my time trying to talk young men and women out of signing up for that gang. I have talked dozens of African and Latino young men and women into going to college instead of falling into the military trap. You aren't fighting for anyone over here by going to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, or anywhere else they send you. You will be fighting for big business interests. It was the C.I.A. (criminals in action) , that created Al Queada in Afghanistan in the 70s when they armed and trained them to fight the Soviets, hoping to create a Vietnam type war that would destroy the USSR (they were successful), but when that war was over they had these mujahedeen (bin Laden included) who never made it a secret how much they hated the U.S. We're not saying Al Queada carried out 9/11, because I highly doubt that, but anyone who is wanting employment and a way into college (because your options are limited out here) so you look at the military, be aware that the lie that you are protecting people over here is so weak it can't stand up to anyone with half a brain. Everyone they tell you they are against they are in bed with...Iran? Give me a break. The U.S. is the reason there is an anti-U.S. regime in Iran today. Study the history of the Shah of Iran and the Islamic revolutionary movement there......It's closely tied to what I previously described about Afghanistan........So celebrate Veteran's day on Monday. Celebrate those who have struck a blow for justice in this world., but don't be confused about who those people really are. American capitalism will have you celebrating the true pirates and demonizing the true heroes. Viva the Mau Mau. Also, notice that the klansmen who regularly post comments to my posts never once refute what I write. All they can do is make ridiculous personal charges like I'm not using my real name. That's of course because they are simply paid to write stupid comments, but I truly enjoy their stupidity. They are getting so desperate that their racism is starting to come out (they can't hide it). Hilarious! Maybe they will post the time and place of their next klan rally | AuthorI don't see disagreement as a negative because I understand that Frederick Douglass was correct when he said "there is no progress without struggle." Our brains are muscles. Just like any other muscle in our body if we don't stress it and push it, the brain will not improve. Or, as a bumper sticker I saw once put it, "If you can't change your mind, how do you know it's there?" ArchivesMarch 2012 Categories |
