No Mas! He Has Gone From Accidentally Funny, To Pathetic.

 Many American Blacks, and people who have visited Black homes going back as far as the late 1960s, have seen some version of this image.  I will get to that in a minute.

But first, I am trying to be done with Glenn Loury.  I have had periods of time, over the past 10 or more years when I had him on mental ignore.  But he served as a passing adequate source of old school conservative talking points, and yes.  He was frequently accidentally funny when he went all white supremacist.  Defender and or enabler.  I would get bored of his shit.  I would take a break, and come back to his internet channel later, to see what he was up to.

For those of you who know, he was something like Uncle Ruckus, without being in denial about being black.   My opinion  (and assume everything here I say about him is just and only my idiotic opinion.)  But this time the trigger is so perverse, that I have switched the controls on YT to stop notifying me of Loury's latest shit posts.

Now to the reason why, and why the image. above.  Now Loury has a bad habit of getting histrionic, I would say even manic, at times, over his mental processes.  Not over reality.  Over the shit his mind processes.  Sure, he says nutzo shit like how he gets angry about his (Black) people.  But as far as I can tell, he gets angry at his (Black) people for not living the way "he just knows" they should be acting and living.  That is all in his own fucking head!  He is seemingly upset people are not doing what he wants them to do!  The distress is all him as . . .  wait for it . . .  a sane, rational person should not have that much trouble understanding that nobody gotta live their lives the way that one other person thinks they should.  

Granted, that is the core of contemporary GOP thought.  And dysfunction, And why they are evil.  But hey.  My default is, "You do you boo.  As long as you aren't actually hurting any other live human person."  So I take people who want to control other people as flat-out evil, because, that is what evil is.  Fucking with people's universal rights, and shit. But I digress.

Now to the picture,  Loury's last meltdown, observed by me this week.  He constructed in his own chemically damaged (by crack) brain, this nightmare fantasy (for him,) where the old MLK and Dead Kennedy's triple portrait was replaced by one where Kamala Harris was center, and MLK and Obama were flanking.  And he threw a fit, had a pretty damn near hysterical fit, over something he merely thought could happen.  Something which at that point in time, only seemed to exist in his chemically damaged (by crack) brain.  And it was such a fucking trivial thing!  That the mere thought of that imagined, trivial picture leading to emotional distress in someone, is to me, not a psychologist,  evidence of a seriously disturbed mind.

I am not going to tell his buddy, John McWhorter, what to do.  But if I had a friend who was having meltdowns over hypothetical, trivial wall hangings?  I would suggest they get some counseling.  And I would counsel them,  fucking don't post that vid.  McWhorter was in the vid.  He could have withdrawn consent for it to be published,

But that's me.  You do you boo.  You do you.

Do They Understand How Political Parties Work?

I am still sorta amazed about how some educated people don't get that  what happened  with the Demticket switcheroo was a political party working the way it is supposed to.  There is individual ambition.  Then there is the ambition of the group.  And the ambition of the group matters more.  You are free to go it alone.  If you want the help of the group you agree.  the ambition of the group matters more.

I am not going to deeply deconstruct the essay from the WP by Jason Willick. But he goes into the matter and quotes DeTocqueville.  And even if he quotes the good bits, doesn't really get the real point.  This is how a political party is supposed to work.   But hey.  Even DeTocqueville didn't really get it even if he observed it and saw what was going on.  

"[a]s Tocqueville reminds us, a politician who impertinently challenges a political majority “has offended the only authority which is able to promote his success.”

That is the maybe not the point of a political party.  But it is how they work .  Otherwise, they are cults of personality, or captive to a ruling elite.  The party lost faith in Joe.  The end.  Thanks for your decades of work in our interest.  But now we need someone else to represent our interests.

Emphasis on our.

I Sunk His Rachet Battleship! Glenn Loury!

 Updating because. 

There are now two vid versions of the conversation.  Newer one has a different and less flat out odious title.  And I believe is shorter.  I did now watch either one for long, because of the Black on Black crime.  Sorta.

After finding the second version/cut.  I made another comment.  This time shorter, and focusing on the Black on Black crime, sorta.

I am now surprised it took me this long to associate Black Republicans with the Black on Black crime punchline.  I believe it was the brilliant Jessica Williams, back when she was still on The Daily Show, who first used the Black on Black crime, line, as a punch line and social commentary.

Later, when she was doing Two Dope Queens, she dropped the line in one of tbe commercials for that series.  That time it was clearly for shits and grins.

I have decided that it is the perfect judgement for the vicious and insulting way Black Republicans, the very much outliers of the American Black population, judge the rest of us.  And specifically target some of us.

Fuck them judgemental Black Republicans and their Black on Black crimes against the rest of us. 

I'll stop there, but leave the rest of the original post here, here.

**********

Or at least inflicted enough of a bruise on his ego for him to delete a post I made following his vid:

The Rise of Opt-In Blacks 

Of course, this was about the white supremacist attacks on Kamala Harris.  And of course, that rachet negro went there, and seemed to defend the line of attack.  All but bought into it himself, by mentioning it, but making a point of not totally buying into it.  Yet defended it,  As a Black someone, who has experienced that odious kind of Black on Black crime?  I really wanted to call him out.  But I did not say that, particularly.

Instead, I went after him for his minstrel "act,"  which I described as a Black man so desperate to be taken as an equal of white republicans, that he was willing to try and try again, and fail.  And was accidentally funny at it.  And because of that, he should never stop trying, and failing.

And he deleted the post.  I will end there.

The Owl is a Karen! No Surprise!

 I keep trying to stop posting shit about the Owl.  And she dares me to keep at it, by getting increasingly addle brained.  As a baseline.  For decades, the largest group consuming rap has been white people.  There are just so man more of them in America, I suppose.  I am not accusing the Owl of being white supremacist, here.  But some of her fan bois went there.  Yo!  When you criticize things  or people of being "urban"  we know you are a white supremacist.  But I digress.

Look at her comment.  Even if she wasn't being literally serious (as she did not file suit,) saying that shit out loud is a very Karen thing to think and do.  And coming from one of those cult of free speech weirdos, as she is?  Hypocritical!

Now, one of my favorite comments there, was the guy who threw a "Ok boomer." at her.  But still.  Cussing in popular music goes way back.  Let's not pretend it is associated only with hip hop, rap.

My all  time, can not be topped, cussing moment in music?  When Chrissie Hynde says, "Not be baby I'm too precious.  So fuck off." First Pretenders album.  The song was "Precious."  1979, If I recall correctly.

Republicans are Addicts

 Even if they are not now, nor ever have been addicted to a substance.  To explain the baseline.  Attorneys usually have to take Continuing Legal Education classes.  Part of that requirement includes either ethics or addiction classes.  Personally I never really got the how of behavior addictions, like gambling, until I took a class where that was explained. 

It's about brain biochemistry, and triggers, and I am not going deeper into that.  Point is.  It hit me over the past few days.  That so many Republicans act like current or ex addicts.  Actual ex crack addict Glenn Loury gave me this accidental clue on of his recent vids.  He accidentally subtly admitted his continuing sense of shame, by universalizing his own self loathing to all Blacks.  That is what I got out of the vid.

Dude is just over flowing with so much self hate,  he has to see it every where. 

But the addict's mind is one where shame and self loathing are in charge.  That and the desire for the trigger for the biochemical rush.  And the shame can lessen while the addict is high.  But it is a cycle.

And I see a similar cycle in specifically the MAGA movement.  But the GOP has been headed that way for years.  They are not about ideas.  They are about feelings.  The more extreme the better.  As intense feelings can trigger biochemical reactions, which lead to even more intense feelings.  And the cycle continues.

Sure.  Democrats can get enthusiastic.  But we are more concerned with government delivering needed and useful services.  The feeling of taking care of others is healthy.  It's not part of some biochemical high and crash and crave cycle.  

One last thing.  Ever notice how it's crazy people who can best stand crazy people.  And addicts can stand other addicts?

Yeah.  Like calls to like.  And who has more problematic brain biochemistry than bozo?  Well. Famous political figure at least.  I say that RFK Jr is a unique mess.  But he seems more stable.  Functional?  Than bozo.

 

Walz

 The Owl got it wrong.  As I expected.  Hoped?  Anyway. She doesn't know dick about politics.  And operates under the psychiatric delusion she can read minds, has some psychic power.  Whatever.  At minimum, she is fool enough to make a guess based on practically no data at all.  Maybe not a psychiatric delusion.  A lot of people do that shit, a lot of the time, and are not declared ready for a rubber room. But a lot of people say a lot of stupid shit.  And no matter how often proven wrong, proven not to know dick abut what they talk about.  The keep on spewing bullshit.  Wrong bullshit.

Ok.  Confession time, if it is not that obvious.  I call her out because the Owl has a rather average, ordinary mind,  Seems even on her best day.  But she doesn't seem to mind being seen saying dumb shit, and making really dumb guesses.   I rather either not guess at shit I don't know, or at least hedge.  She goes right out there, trips and falls face first into the shit pile that is public embarrassment.

For example. I have been basically refusing to predict the VP pick for Harris. I have been mostly saying shit like.  I don't have access to their internal polling.  I assume they are going to look at the math, and decide based on who has the best chance of helping win electoral votes in a battleground state.  

It's all about electoral votes!

And now that a decision has been made, I assume the numbers showed Walz was better math than Shapiro.  Given a minute or two to think it over.  Ya know?  No matter which of the two governors was picked?  The Harris campaign is going to have to dump a shit load of money in both states.

Fuck people's feelings.  Bozo made his selection of Vance more on feelings than math.  And look how that shit turned out.

Olympic Inspired Anti Racism!

 

O

Of Course Supporting Racists Doing Racist Shit is Worse, But

 The Owl is yet again promoting conspiracy theories.  Racist ones!  That sick shit bozo said about VP Harris recently becoming black?  Now I have a relative who was at Howard with her.  So one might accuse me of having inside knowledge.  One would have to be either a flaming racist them self, or too close to one to matter, to think that.  This is a matter of public knowledge!  Bozo was trying to do something like he did with Warren, with the ugly "Pocahontas," smear.  

Anyway.  She decided to check into the racist idea VP Harris only recently sort of became black, by merely doing a search in the NYT archives, and in the wayback machine's archives for the Times.

My sarcasm can go in many directions here.  I could go extensive, or blistering or both.  But I will go with the following.  

That is about as exhaustive an inquiry, as to look for evidence of the existence of feral cats globally, by just looking in the glove box of one car,  Finding no cats at all there in that one glove box, and then declaring:

"No feral cats exist anywhere!"

Bozo also talked about cognitive testing, at that event.  I think the Owl should investigate that, next. By taking one.  And I mean, one more thorough than the Montreal Test.  That is the dementia detection test bozo is so proud of passing.  

I'm Not a Racist, But . . .
