The Constant Victim

By Rich Kozlovich

 

Over the last year I posted a series of commentaries tagged, All Things Great and Small Are Racistat least four more sitting in my draft file, and I've even tagged articles by others in the same way, as in Daniel Greenfield's, Classical Music CRT Comes for Mozart.

 

We're facing an unending whine of victimhood from black America.  This article, Oppressive Beauty Standards?, by Trish Randall on August 6, 2022 is an example saying:

In woke ideology, the strongest evidence of a community’s oppression is the personal recitation of lived experience. Among an individual’s experiences, what could be more intimately felt than what one chooses to wear?  A frequently claimed form of oppression is white European fashion preferences. The search term “white beauty standards” brings up  suffering-focused results: “How White Beauty Standards are Hurting Women of Color Everywhere,” “Here’s the Major Problem with White Beauty Standards,” “How White Supremacy and Capitalism Influence Beauty Standards,” etc.  “European beauty standards” results include “Eurocentric Beauty Standards: A Global Disease.”

The author goes on to ask

How are minority women oppressed into particular style options? Did owners force enslaved women to iron their hair? Were there Jim Crow laws requiring salons to enforce white styles? Considering decades of federal anti-discrimination laws, how are white beauty standards enforced?

R. Kelly, a black man who for decades was found found guilty of sexually abusing women, girls and boys was sentence to 30 years in prison.  And what is the reaction of his sisters?   He was sentenced for all that time because racism Influenced that 30 year sentence for sexually abusing all those women,young girls and young boys, "insisting that he’s the true victim".   Imagine that!  He won't hold it against them though, “He’ll be like, forgive them.” Wow!  A real paragon of virtue! 

 

The problem isn't racism on the part of whites!  The problem is the culture of excuse making and the refusal to accept responsibility for the failure of black culture by leftists in government, academia and education and corrupt black race baiters.  Constantly claiming their failures in life are because they're victims of endless white racism!

 

Education in black America is an example, because it's the white leftist establishment, in collusion with black excuse making race baiters who've turned public education into a sham and a farce.  Instead of focusing on reading, writing, arithmetic, which they've for all practical purposes totally abandoned, they've now focused on:

 

[leftist] panaceas of, Restorative Justice, Positive Behavioral Instructional Supports, Institutionalized Racism, Ending the School to Prison Pipeline, etc. All of these concepts and teaching methods were preached by the administrative staff as if they were manna from heaven that would miraculously cure all that ails the world.

 

Result?  Violence unchecked in the schools, total disrespect for the teachers, and a failure to learn.  With school administrations harboring only one absolute rule for the teachers.  Don't upset the black kids.  

We don't have a racial problem with blacks in America.  We have a black culture problem in America, and until black Americans accept responsibility for their cultural failures, nothing will be fixed.  

Is that going to happen?  No!

 

On  August 5, 2022 Olivia Murray posted this piece, Ivy League-educated writer decries the absence of ‘cacophony’ as racism, saying: 

 

The Atlantic ran an essay by Brown graduate Xochitl Gonzalez which synonmozied tranquility with oppression. Gonzalez’s academic instruction in Saul Alinksy, Karl Marx, and Friedrich Engels suitably equipped her for the task, as the piece was rife with communistic language – after all, the title was “Why Do Rich People Love Quiet?”  Just within the first paragraph, we see obvious references to both Marx and Alinsky, respectively:

While insisting on total respect, she clearly has little concern or respect for others, "the others being white".  When she ignores the values of others while intruding on their space, she claims any rebukes are the result of racism, because:

"White culture’ with its expectations of considering others, is racist!"

The author went on to say:

Gonzalez perfectly embodies the entitled, arrogantly uninformed leftist with whom we’re all so painfully well-acquainted. They’re constantly the victim, and identity politics and skin color is the lens through which they see the world. And on top of all that, they unanimously process using cognitive dissonance – because, the funny thing is, Gonzalez has alabaster skin.

If this is an example of the "educated leadership" of black America, and it is, then there will be no fix for "the constant victim" because being the victim is much easier than actually performing, and most importantly, marrying the women they impregnate.  Without a strong social foundation of Judaic/Christian ethics and commitment to family, black America cannot fix itself, and no one else can either.
