Corporate black media and why black people are not very serious…

(ThyBlackMan.com) Why are black people perceived to not be very serious? The quick and less obvious answer is media. A quote I heard this year says,

“Our people are very serious…about not being very serious” – Dr. Kamau Kambon.

I first heard this while listening to the popular internet radio program The Context of White Supremacy and it has stuck in my mind ever since. The quote is the most accurate social commentary on what I have observed passing itself off as an informed black media. In case you have not heard the news, which is doubtful since the n-word was allegedly used, some person posted a Facebook status message calling for the “nigger” President Obama to be assassinated including his “monkey” family.

Due to social media programming, black people continue to act “shocked & awed” when some white person is alleged to have used the n-word. Once the  n-word has been introduced, a brainwashed mind trained to react to certain triggers loses all reason and will ignore any important underlying context in which the shocking trigger word was used. For an example, a black person’s life may be saved when just before stepping into the path of a speeding bus, a white person yells, “hey, look out for that bus”. What would occur under the same scenario when the white person instead yells, “hey nigger, look out for that bus”? Would it affect that black person’s reaction time? Could they process life saving information requiring a split-second decision on whether to take another step into the street or would they be distracted and delayed by the trigger word nigger instead of looking out for that bus? The n-word may stop them in their tracks as they look back to see who used such a terrible word.

For a real world example, take what was recently submitted to Google News as news targeting a black audience. A NewsOne blogger recently wrote a post titled “Ron Paul Supporter: “Assassinate N-Word Obama And Monkey Children”. It would be news if it simply listed the factual allegations but the writer, who has written about Ron Paul before, undeniably is on a mission to prove allegations that the current GOP front-runner inIowa is a closet racist. He connects Ron Paul to the alleged racist because the man has  posted to the Facebook Fan Page of Paul. He regurgitates old news about ghost written articles appearing over twenty years ago in a newsletter published under Paul’s name. From what I have learned listening to The Context of White Supremacy is that all white people are suspect and may consciously or sub-consciously be practicing white supremacy. What I have learned from reading more articles about politics than about entertainment is that there are many black people who help to uphold the global system of white supremacy consciously and sub-consciously.

Casey Gane-McCalla, lead blogger for NewsOne, part of media magnate Kathy Hughes Empire, writes,

“Jules Manson, a former candidate for city council inCarson,Californiaand enthusiastic Ron Paul supporter  wrote “Assassinate the f#@#en n-word and his monkey children” in a Facebook post.”

Gane-McCalla goes on to write that Paul and Jules Manson is connected to a nameless Tea Party group and frequently cites that he is an ardent supporter of Ron Paul. Ron Paul has actually turned down a number of invites to Tea Party events. Not once does the writer attempt to give underlying context for alleged racist Manson’s Facebook tirade. Interestingly research on the writer reveals he is known in the rap community for his video “White Girls” which is a classic piece of white supremacy propaganda embedded in hip-hop but that’s another article for another time.

The New York Daily News also wrote about the story. There is a marked difference in the way the story is reported on a website targeting different audiences. Most of the articles on so-called black websites are focused on the racial animosity angle.

The New York Daily News audience learns that, Jules Manson, “urged the sickening reprisal, saying Obama’s support of a revised military authorization bill last week was an act of “treason” that “eroded” constitutional protections.”

The military authorization bill that President Obama is expected to sign into law does in fact render due process protections, the civil rights contained in the Bill of Rights null and void. The News One article completely leaves out that major detail.

A logically thinking mind reading this story would be alarmed most about losing the important civil protections that define theUnited Statesas a free society. An illogical brained washed mind is alarmed most about a white man calling “their” black President a “nigger” and his family “monkeys”. It should also be noted that in addition to speaking out loudly against the loss of these civil liberties for all American citizens, Ron Paul said President Obama committed an impeachable offense when he issued a kill order on an American citizen without due process.

After doing a quick search of the recentWashington news section of NewsOne, I could not find any articles related to any of President Obama’s controversial decisions that fly in the face of the rule of law. In fact, there was one story that celebrated Obama’s prowess at killing terror suspects and their children.

At a time in American history when administration after administration pushes to grab unprecedented power for the executive branch, bringing the nation closer to the brink of dictatorship, it is painfully obvious that a huge segment of black people are not being very serious about the serious issues confronting us today. Civil wars have erupted for less.

Dr. Kamau Kambon was once a big story in the news media and labeled a racist when he suggested that white people must be “exterminated” because they want to “kill us”. The news media did not ask him why he thought white people wanted to kill black people or what evidence he held that supported his claim. The brainwashed mind only focused on “white people must be exterminated” and not the assertion that “white people want to kill us”. I am not suggesting that Dr. Kambon is right in his assessment that the extermination of white people is the solution to stopping global white supremacy, but one thing I will agree with him about is his assessment that many black people “are very serious about not being very serious”.

    BTW the “black” media is having it’s agenda set by the “white” Jews who own the media

    I work specifically with deprogramming African Americans from the slavery mindset. First off, WE ARE NOT BLACK, Read my article entitled I DON’T KNOW ANY BLACK PEOPLE on this site. If you don’t find it, email me at brainstormonline@yahoo.com and request it.

    mainstream media, and media in general has done a very good job at keeping the american people divided. the NDAA will be passed, but hey at least that means more jobs; infact the army added a new mos (job) “Internment and Resettlement Specialist”. you may also want to google “army civilian labor program” you can read the official de-classified document, if you read it they have already used it with federal prisoners for nearly a decade, prisoners agreed to take part since it allowed them to have their sentences shortened.
    I always wondered why Sharpton, Jackson, and Holder obsess themselves over some cartoonish looking white supremacist ranting and raving down a street, when you have acts of ethnic cleansing going on in california with chicano gangs wanting to rid their neighborhoods of black people. i use to live in california and areas that had been predominately black neighborhoods for generations have changed. blacks continue to leave california due to the harrassment, violence, and threats that are continually made against them. infact many have to stay with in certain areas because if they dont they will be killed.
    It is also not just against black gangbangers, regular people are also targeted, children playing in the front of their homes, working people at bus stops, and older black folks. yet this is never mentioned in mainstream media. when i was there local news would talk about it, but exposure was limited because they feared the violence would increase. i agree with you scotty, the master of puppets has done a good job keeping us occupied and fighting amongst each other while they set us up for the slaughter

    @Scotty, Newt voted for the MLK Holiday bill while Uncle Ron voted against it although it was overwhelmingly passed in the House on August 2, 1983 by a margin of 338-90. It’s a shame that Newt is viewed as a nobody to the black community while we glorify Obama who failed to attend the 40th anniversary commemorating the assassination of MLK, go figure.

    The foundation of anything starts with WORK. It’s best to teach a man how to fish so that he can eat for a lifetime instead of giving him fish to eat for a day. Newt’s plan on Corporate/Urban Partnership provides a stepping stone away from government dependency and paves the way for economic empowerment by creating JOBS in Corporate America for the urban poor.

    Unfortunately this is another rambling and poorly-written article. But I’m going to put aside the awful typos and egregious misuse of the English language and focus on the content. You start with a mistaken premise (black people aren’t taken seriously) and use your subjective opinion about how some black people (we’re not told which ones or how many) reacted to a ridiculous news story to support that mistaken premise. I’m going to go out on a limb (a very stable one as it turns out) and say that you feel like people don’t take you and your black friends seriously. Speaking from my brief experience with you, I don’t take you seriously because you’re a below average writer who can’t form coherent arguments. Your knowledge of the government is limited at best, but actually weak if I’m being honest. That has nothing to do with you being black.

    You’re representative of a larger issue here, which is that under-represented minorities as a class often feel pressured to use their race as a crutch because so much is excused as a result. What I mean here is that society acknowledges that blacks and other minorities are victims, but that leads many minorities to drink the kool-aid and make excuses for their inability to succeed. You sit there asking, “why don’t they take me seriously?” when you should be asking, “what can I do to improve myself?” Many minorities are actually disadvantaged, but they can overcome those disadvantages if they don’t concede that they’re any worse than anyone else, inherently. The point where you start wondering about your ability to be legitimate is the point where you’ve already lost.

    Calling people “minor” (minority) is offensive and racist. Cry RACIST and let loose the dogs of DISTRACTION!! I go for the guy who doesn’t smell “factory fresh”. His record shows he has the knowledge of the modern issues of our time. I think someone smart said, “It’s the economy stupid.” The other “suits” don’t even have a record of over 30 years to fall back on to prove they are not guilty when “suspected”. All the other ones are for the NDAA and Patriot Act. All the other ones wanted the bailouts to fat cats. I still don’t know why he didn’t just join the other racist bastards so the “good-ol-boy” network could have helped him cover all this up? Could it be, that he is the only one who isn’t racist, and in this politically correct world this can fan flames of racism by destroying one of the few men, if not the only man who has at least actually NOT actively worked against people of color and have DEFENDED many even when he was the only one? Really?

    Look at both sides and judge for yourself. Ultimately, which would stay on his message, it is a 1st Amendment right to free speech, even vulgar and vile speech. Otherwise a faction opposed to you (Like the left/Right Authoritarian model today) didn’t like you they might limit YOUR speech and deem it a terroristic act (Patriot Act, NDAA, SOPA). Think about it. Get fooled by the jokers who want to destroy the only one in the race talking about the issues and wanting freedom and justice for America (unless hounded bout something that runs contrary to all his years in office and every book he wrote- – think they would find those things in there too, huh?), or be brainwashed by what the mainstream wants you to think. I am just an American wanting America to be America, thank you for your time, good article. Peace, love, and understanding, what is so funny about that?

    The real problem is that many blacks are gullible, thats why you see many rednecks on this website promoting Ron Paul and other crypto right wingers.

  8. Scotty says:

    @hoodgirl Newt hinted to the answer in his unwarranted attack on black youth, who are you and him to Judge what work ethic millions of black youth and if they participate in illegal activities to make money to survive, it is because white corporate America isn’t hiring very many of them. I feel llke I am south of the border whenever I go into a Charlotte area McDonald’s, which isn’t very often. So those are jobs our children are no longer getting. Are you aware that Newt Gingrich wants to execute anyone coming across the border with 2oz of marijuana. Ron Paul wants to end the drug war targeting our black youth. Better read up the The New Jim Crow and the Age of Color Blindness if you do not fully comprehend the impact of this so-called war which primarily fought in urban areas and not so much in those other communities. Newt Gingrich is an asshole and do not bring up the welfare because Newt & Bill passed welfare reform, their are no generations on welfare in our communities. I would also point out, that rural residents (white people) make up the majority of record breaking number of ppl getting food stamps. Newt Gingrich is a nobody to the black community.

  9. hoodgirl says:

    @Scotty, it doesn’t surprise me that some brothas and sistas might root for the other team but my life has always been about climbing over that wall and reaching a hand back to pull others over.

    Newt’s position is correct, people in urban communities need WORK not handouts from big brother government or mediocre speeches from Obama who has done nothing but exploited the urban poor!

    If Uncle Ron has anything in his background that indicates that he is an advocate for the urban poor then I apologize, otherwise step off and sell your pipe dream elsewhere because I got nothing but love for The HOOD which is where I was born, raised and remain!

  10. Scotty says:

    hoodgirl is obviously a white supremacist troll promoting a real white supremacist in the would be tyrant Newt Gingrich.

  11. hoodgirl says:

    Newt is the only presidential candidate who has suggested economic development through corporate sponsorship to uplift the poor by allowing members of urban communities the opportunity to become gamefully employed with Corporate America. That my friend is “BRILLIANT”!

    I remember when Newt was Speaker of The House and the Architect of the Welfare to Work Program. There were so many people in The HOOD that never worked in their lives who suddenly found themselves employed with home ownership and reliable transportation. This was a HUGE injection to their self esteem.

    Newt’s plan provides opportunities for the urban poor to break the cycle of government dependency. Uncle Ron has been around along time, if he had it in him to help the urban poor he would have done it by now! Case in point, Newt has the track record.

  12. Darren says:

    Ron Paul would be the best choice for minorities. Consider this, many minorities go into the military to try and better their futures, only to be sent off to die for oil. Minorities get screwed. Gingrich’s idea for minorities, as he alluded to in his debate performance, is to let them join the military and die for oil. Ron Paul’s anti-war position wins me.

  13. Louwhan says:

    Very well written article. I think RP is the only candidate for minorities. He does not believe in minorities because we are ALL supposed to be free and equal.
