American Politics

[Midwestern]

I am against racism and I support protests. However, if these protests cause a 2nd wave of COVID19, which then causes another shutdown and causes the USA Markets to crash again, then I may lose my mind.

The Game: How the 1% control the other 99%, while becoming rich and powerful.

1. Make them "want" needless things.

2. Make them work long, hard for these needless things. (Be careful about the successful entrepreneurs because they are catching on to the game).

3. Mask 1 & 2 by calling it a "booming economy."

So when the looting happens with needless things. It's okay. They will eventually pay it all back with more work, longer, and harder. All the 1% have to do is go back to #1. Make them want "new" needless things or raise the price on them. Good examples are bottled water in the USA or that "new" designer purse or that "older" antique watch. Now you know the meaning in "The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. " The devil will make you work.

Hahahaha.

And you claim to be a medical field executive with a non-medical advanced degree?

Hahahaha.

There is no opinion, no perspective, no bias in the above statement. Those are just facts (not even my own) coming from yeah, somebody with an MBA in Global Business and was also a "healthcare worker and administrator at a very high level." And yes, there are skewed numbers when it comes to patients deaths. How do I know? I have myself ordered them changed, government officials have told us, physicians I work with have changed them, and the rest of entire hospital system have all reported chart data according to how we want or the best way to get funding for us to stay in operation. It works the same as when business owners who file their taxes and look for loopholes. We will take advantage of the system when we can to get paid. We do what we have to do and what we can get away with, if not more.

This is hysterical.

You obviously don't have a dime in your purse nor have you met a 1% 'er so how would you know how things operate? It is ignorance like this which engenders the rise of hate which is EXACTLY what people are protesting about.

I will agree though that poverty breeds anger, hate, and YES racism, even cannibalistic urges to harm your own kind ie. black on black crime but if you think you are YOU simply because a 1% type class exists then public education failed you miserably.

The 1% help you to wipe your ass and put food in your mouth in more ways than you can imagine. Whether for tax benefits or just pure ego bliss IT STILL GETS TO THOSE WHO NEED IT. Philanthropists contribute a huge amount of money to human causes that would otherwise never have the ability to operate.

But then again these days Chem trails, George Orwell, Illumanati, and Narcissism dominate more than common sense.

Eh, you probably don't want to use that word.

Oh geeze, here we go. We got one of those word litigators up in here.

Seems like 2 Alpha Males working security at the same bar. Lots of competition prior to this event. One of the guys becomes a cop and low and behold he gets called to his old job site where his competitor is still working. Low self esteem mixed with onlookers causes a ruckus and cops want to show who is boss.

Skin color or fragile egos cause disturbance? I go with fragile egos and competition over skin color anyway. That is way more threatening than skin color could ever be.

"When it gets down to having to use violence, then you are playing the system's game. The establishment will irritate you—pull your beard, flick your face—to make you fight. Because once they've got you violent, then they know how to handle you. "

—John Lennon.

Brace yourselves.

There is something being concocted in the dens of power, far beyond the public eye, and it doesn't bode well for the future of this country.

Anytime you have an entire nation so mesmerized by political theater and public spectacle that they are oblivious to all else, you'd better beware.

Anytime you have a government that operates in the shadows, speaks in a language of force, and rules by fiat, you'd better beware.

And anytime you have a government so far removed from its people as to ensure that they are never seen, heard or heeded by those elected to represent them, you'the better beware.

What is unfolding before us is not a revolution.

The looting, the burning, the rioting, the violence: this is an anti-revolution.

The protesters are playing right into the government's hands, because the powers-that-be want this. They want an excuse to lockdown the nation and throw the switch to all-out martial law. They want a reason to make the police state stronger.

Limbaugh has a following / listenership of millions. Cornel west is liberal university professor, who is thus invited to be a talking head on TV to represent a point of view. There is a difference.

West is much more than a professor but just as I thought you are just uninformed. West does have a huge following with all his many best selling books, movie roles and paid appearances although how just having a following makes you a somebody in USA politics makes no sense.

[GeneHickman]

So who is a somebody in American politics to you? For a nobody (according to you) Cornel West sure gets plenty of invites to political shows and events because they value his opinion. He is a frequent guest on Fox News and was actually on the network two days ago. You may not agree with his liberalism but this is akin to saying Rush Limbaugh is nobody in American politics when he clearly is regardless of his far right views. Put your bias aside and go read up on West as you aren't aware of much to make a statement like you did.

George Floyd's death was an injustice. Two medical examiners ruled it a homicide. Are you saying that the black community should shut up about this and thus get respect?

"America always wins" No deep rooted flaws in American culture. No sir! "can't we all just get along?

Who said blacks should shut up? Protest non violently and peacefully. But this vandalism and looting and shit only reinforces stereotypes.

I am also saying the best way to gain the respect of others is to deserve it in the first place. That is how the movements of Gandhi and MlK won people over.

I look at Dcups comments very disrespectful. The problem here is white America thinks we should not be angry, but we can go back years and show how this country has not honored that all men are created equal creed. Let's start with after world War 11 with the GI bill. Where the government for award of service provided low cost mortgage loans to veterans. The problem was black veterans were denied those mortgage loans and look at Long Island it was written that blacks were not allow to buy houses there even with the GI bill. We can talk about reclining that decimated the black community, bit we will. Leave that for another time.

Let's take my family. My father fought in the Korean War in the last black all infantry regiment, who had to fight their way back into South Korea when his regiment was overrun.

By Chinese troops in North Korea with his unit sustaining a 70% casualty rate. He was shot numerous times and some how made it back. You know what his reward was to make sure he got off the sidewalk when a white person was walking on the side walk even in uniform outside Fort Bennin Georgia. Now Dcups will seriously ask why are we angry. How about my mother who was the first black to graduate from her nursing school and was the top her class. I mean no. 1 and she did not get a job right away. The only reason why she got a job was because so many black oldiers were injured coming back from the Vietnam War. If you know anything about that war blacks took the brunt of the casualties early on in that war. But, Dcups thinks we should not be angry. Now when when my parents decided to buy a house outside of Boston a petition was started to prevent them from buying a house. Yes, honest hard working Americans, the one difference they were black. It took my mother going to the Boston Globe and her story being published that it was ordered that the realtor sell her that home. They have never asked to be treated better just the same.

Fast forward, to me I have done very well in life yet I have been pulled over 30 times by police with guns drawn being called the and-word wondering if I will live through the traffic stop in question. Fortunately, my last one I just won a 7 figure settlement because I got arrested driving a nice car and I have the money to hire the best attorneys and caught them in lie when they wrote there police report. No different on the lie they wrote in the George Floyd police report.

Now maybe you understand why I am angry and I come on here and will not tolerate racists comments, but for that the moderator now reads all my comments before I post. The one thing I will always do is keep it real on here. Call me angry, but I have my reasons.

With respect to Trump. I do not know if he will win, but the demographics are changing so it will. Not be long now before change happens. By the way, Georgia and Arizona are polling close, who would ever think that he will need to shore up Texas so do not be confident that he will be reelected. Just look at that black vote it came out pre Obama numbers with Hilary, she would have won PA, MI and Wisconsin. Now, Dcups if you think the black vote is not coming out for this election you will be sadly mistaken. I guess we might be a little angry.

Look dude you don't know me and likewise. So no need for the personal attacks.

Cornel west is a nobody in American politics. If you don't know that you aren't aware of much.

Slavery was of course an injustice, but 50 yrs after MLK and significant systemic reforms, all African Americans seem to want to do is fight.

Where is the sense of purpose, where is the desire to show everyone that they are worthy of respect. Where is the culture?

Very few and far between. All the black community leaders I see keep screwing the community by blaming others and not for one second looking at the deep rooted cultural flaws as well.

I mean this genuinely. Black America will get nowhere with this approach.

George Floyd's death was an injustice. Two medical examiners ruled it a homicide. Are you saying that the black community should shut up about this and thus get respect?
