Some thoughts on racism and superiority

Hello Rabbit!!

Thank you for another excellent article. Here’s my thoughts, but before I write I want to emphatically state that I am not a feminist. I am not an any kind of ist. I strongly oppose any kind of definition or delineation that promotes opposition. I do not like to take sides – even though there are sides. Instead I like to stand in the middle and take the best from both points of view. This is an impossible task but somebody has to do it 😊. But seriously, I believe that without the nuance or subtlety of individual philosophy all things are void of meaning. Let me explain.

America has come to (what I hope) is the end of an experiment in equality. Strangely this striving after equality has left us with deep wounds, division and distrust. Caucasians are now ‘whites’ and thus there is a ‘white race’. Africans, Asians, Pacific Islanders and South Americans are now ‘the blacks’. This is supremely annoying to me – however it is the reality of Now. Another thing that burns my butt is the feminist vs MGTOW dichotomy which has dragged us all kicking and screaming into the ‘two sides go to war’ scenario which will not end well for us. And the protestations against ‘white privilege’ and condemnations of people who have ‘white privilege’ is another thing that I am salty with. How many ways can people find to destroy each other ffs?

You assert that “America is now being told that it's impossible for a Black Person to be racist and, at the same time, that it’s impossible for a White Person NOT to be racist”. Yes. This is correct. Not the bit about being America being told but the bit about racism. It is a correct perception in terms of a different culture with different words and definitions of words. It is not correct or true from our position or meaning. You see it’s not true that ONLY this is being said. It is a million different misconceptions and oppositions that America is being told. In truth there is no equality and there is no unity yet people keep on expecting to be equal and unified. The black vs white opposition and even hatred is a very clear expression of the overall fragmentation that has occurred.

Again, why I say the statement is correct is because it is correct from ONE point of view. If you do not understand that point of view then obviously it looks wrong. You see words do not mean the same thing to every race, culture, or person. I like your argument about definition drift and I fully agree with you that incorrect usage of words and making words say something that they were not designed for is a slippery slope to hell. However, you cannot expect people from one culture to be able to express themselves to another culture. To understand each other is not to make sounds at another person who interprets those sounds as something else. For instance, in my home country when we said ‘see you later’ to a friend that meant that later on that day we were going to meet up, however in my new country those words mean ‘goodbye’. It is very disconcerting for me that complete strangers tell me that they are going to see me later because, No, I am not seeing them later and probably not ever again. Who is wrong? Another example is that back in my homeland we say we will do something ‘now’, which means that any time, from now, we will do it. This could be in 5 minutes or in two hours. Here when they say ‘I’ll do it now’ they mean right now!!!! Very irritating. So who is right? And what should we do about it? ‘Waking up the sheeple’ will not change miscommunication no matter how much we hope that it will. I am an old dog and learning new tricks is indeed impossible for me.

There are people – both white and black – who think that only the people at the very top of the pyramid are ‘right’ and ‘powerful’ and in some way ‘superior’. This thought leads them to believe that the people at the top are indeed ‘right’ and ‘powerful’ and ‘superior’. And then they think [project their feelings] that those people also feel ‘right’ and powerful’. But no! And yet there are still those on the very top of the power hierarchy and they do have obscene amounts of money which means they can buy anything – even another person’s life. This is wrong. It is the wrong type of ‘superiority.’

The argument for justified racism sort of follows the same thinking as that about bullying. The bully can only bully people weaker than him. That is what a bully is. He picks on the little guy. The little guy who gets bullied can only hate the bully, he has no power to do anything else. This logic says that the bully thinks he is superior to anyone weaker. Is he a racist? This is the type of justification for reverse racism. Only the white guys can be racists because the white guys are more powerful and so they discriminate against the weaker people and so they are bullies/racists. True? Yes but no. This logic says that the white guy thinks he is superior to anyone weaker and therefore is a bully or a racist. So, let me remind you, I am not on either side but I can see why this misconception is happening. It is exactly as you say, the definitions given to words. And this is the logic you perceive when you say “This means a White person who believes Blacks are an inferior race can "logically" be called a racist, but a Black person who believes Whites are an inferior race is not "logically" a racist.”

Some people are superior to other people. For example, a person who keeps the law is superior to someone who breaks the law. A person who is kind to animals is superior to one who abuses animals. The argument that white people are racist stems from the fact that some people ARE better than other. Actually better. Factually better. But do these people consider THEMSELVES to be ‘superior’? Well no, the superior person is the humblest and the kindest and most loving. That kind of person says that all people bleed red blood and have grey brains.

Our culture has brought a freedom from pain and persecution that very few others have. Our superior set of ethics forbid things that in terms of human rights ARE inferior. For example, we allow our children to have a long innocent childhood free of responsibility, financial stress, and sexual activity. We find that this the superior way to live. We also think that is superior to poop in a receptacle designed to remove the offending matter from our homes (and streets). Are we superior to people who do not hold these beliefs? No, but society is superior if we follow these guidelines. So, it is behaviour and ethics that make us superior to the behaviour of those who poop in the streets, screw kids, or expect 5 year olds to work all day in a sweat shop. Yes, our behaviour is better than that. But WE are not superior to other people. So, as you point out, racism is a stupid word. It means nothing. The only thing it does do is to attempt to make one group of people look different from another group.

But what I said earlier is that there are NOT only two groups - the ‘white race’ vs the ‘black race’. You talk about about gender. This now is the opposite of the racist stupidity. This is another level of stupidity altogether. The hundreds of different races are now two. The two genders are now 72. Wtf? Somewhere the race of ‘white people’ have lost the plot. They have become insane, self-destructive and counterproductive. We will die out. We will. It has gone too far. White men and women have stopped breeding. Men have given up leading and being rational beings and women think that they know everything when in fact they only know woman stuff.

When feminism started, it was justified. Women had no say in community decisions. Women were not allowed to participate in decision making. The women who stood up and called this out were brutally arrested, force fed, tortured and probably raped. But they were right. Women are necessary. Women must participate. And because most men are decent human beings, women were given a role in the community. Because of the terrible things that guys mothers and sisters had faced, many men stepped aside to allow their women folk more of the pie. These are the superior men. But the brutal nasty thuggish men continued with their bad treatment of women. The nice guys stepped aside and let women fight their own battles. Which women did. The ones who fought the hardest were the ones who had been damaged the most. All the while the good men who stepped aside had made a fatal error, they had stopped providing the leadership that society so desperately needs.

So now we have two sides at war. The hurt and abused vs the nasty brutes who hurt and abused them. All this while the good men and women - who are bystanders in this drama – were off on their own missions bringing babies into the world and raising them is egalitarian households. And now we have lesbians and fat chicks leading the ‘feminists’ and incels and MGTOW walking away. This is the testimony to our failed system.

You say that people say “"That doesn't mean I have power." Well, you would be correct. It doesn't.” I would like to disagree. You have the power. Every day that you stand up and provide leadership and a rational voice you inspire another man to do the same. Men are being called back into their position as the voice of rationality. This is, imo, the only hope we have to correct this terrible tragedy. You do have the power and the only people you need to wake up is the men. We are about to lose it all. You summed it up excellently when you say

“If race means something to you other than what it actually means, then you’re not talking about racism. You are talking about something else which should probably have it’s own word.” I believe that by allowing for “definition drift” with the word "racism" in our society, you don’t realize that you are participating in making our entire civilization vulnerable. (sounds extreme I know, but hear me out) Any word which carries in its sound the communication of a great evil should be handled with care in society”.

and

“Can’t you see how vulnerable we leave ourselves, all of us, all people everywhere, when we have no standard of objective reality”.

Objective reality is the Male domain. Women do touchy feely lovey dovey. So when you say “I mean linguistics is not up for vote to be determined by mob rule. That’s why democracy is so dangerous. We have to embrace an objective reality. Otherwise our perception of reality will be fixed to nothing”I agree 100%. Women ‘found themselves’ in the 20th century, which was good for womanhood but not so much for society. It’s time now for men to step up and reclaim their power and bring their superior male rationality into the mix to redirect our ship – which is about to crash and burn.

Good luck guys, we are counting on you.

P.S. I am not racist, nor a white supremacist nor a feminist. But I am controversial and have at least 50% chance of being wrong. *grinning in female.
