Racism is not systemic because I don’t see systemic. I am systemic-blind.

.

The way black Americans are treated in this country is not any different than a white American caught with a bucket of history, and current data, whitewash.

.

We will not and cannot pay slavery and Jim Crow reparations because our irresponsible ancestors that created, and allowed these systemic horribles palmed it off on us.

.

There can only be two genders: the males who made these rules, and the females that must follow them.

.

Women should be women. Men should be men. Everyone else should have gotten the memo from the wrongheaded, godhead office.

.

We must listen to our religious leaders when it comes to sexuality and gender because they previously stoned to death anyone who thought for themselves.

.

Homosexuality is wrong because the Pope reads a cryptic, ancient book many unknown people wrote, and others later translated, that he must also interpret for us.

.

Global warming can’t be true because there was once a lot of press about the earth going into a cooling period due to aerosols in the 1970s. (Ironically, the earth cooling hypothesis was debunked by the scientistthat first proposed it!)

.

Remember congregants; hate the sin, and love the sinner. However, if that causes others to hate the sinner, fire, or hurt them, what can we christians do about it?!

.

Love thy neighbor as yourself, unless they are gender non-conforming, and kick them out of your home until they repent or die.

.

Take heed of the Catholic Church’s expert advice on sexuality. (Even though for two millennia it has had no success with gay priest conversion therapy, or been able to stop sex abuse in their pedo “priestly” ranks.)

.

Abortion is wrong because conservative southern christians wanted segregation.

.

American christians are more persecuted today than at any time in their ahistorical minds.

.

We had an insurrection on January 6 because cops suck, and the Constitution wants us to play by the rules.

.

We had an erection on January 6 when Donald Trump said he would walk with us arm in arm to the capitol. (After that liar’s march of testosterone interruptus, you also would get angry, and rip shit up! Trump left us high and dry.)

.

Nothing prepared me for such autocracy, theocracy, and hypocrisy. I must go confess my hate the (pompous priest, pope, president, and pastor) sinner sins.

Watchdogging That Makes The World That Goes Around Come Around.

No person, politician, party, or profit pursuer is immune from the influences of power. The facts are absolutely in. We all know of someone close who has failed to make the cut. If you are human, you have been tempted to take the   supposedly easier   path rather than fight the power, and even fallen short of perfection yourself. If you think your perfection is still solid, you may be less trustworthy with power than those who admit to a fall, or a fail. . Since transgressions of power will happen, with potential in every entity, our citizenship requires us to be massively more vigilant, and always strong when fighting the power is required. To accomplish this task, we need an extensively watchful, wary, skeptical eye doing the work, along with counteracting stature and influence. That solution is what I present below, between   linked vignette

White Americans Make Riots Happen

Image
The first thing many, maybe most whites will do is deny we have any riotous involvement. How could we Whites be the cause when we are hardly ever seen rioting? Yet there have been infinitesimally few riots where whites were not the central cause . While Ku Klux Klan- type white supremacy was often an instigator, it is the larger white supremacist cohort (see image text below) , which includes most white Americans throughout our history, that has created the greater context, the massive matrix of unlit matches you could say, especially today. Even when riots "instigated" by blacks are included in our rioting history, white structured society would be the true culprit of our significant riotous past, our very recent past as well . The evidence to support this claim is infinite, and begins below. The definition of the term riot can be narrowed down to limit the political formations of violence to exonerate state violence, or violence by preferred citizens. Instead I define

Immigration: Righteous “Christian” Culmination, or Rights Humiliation?

Image
Photo by   Max Böhme   on  Unsplash First published on Medium . . When I complain about something my country is doing, I have been called a self-hating white person. These are damaging accusations. My feelings are easily hurt. A tear wells up, and… . I realize my situation is good compared to many, so someone calling me names, does not and should not phase me. Of course, they are incorrect about one thing, just looking at my sleeves they should see I suffer from Catholic guilt, and how long my purgatory sentence will be, not self hating. Yet, I have always thought that self hating, or guilt suffering is better than lacking an ethical framework, humanitarian values, or a moral backbone. . If I hear or read about another xenophobic white- christian -splaining the reason we should ban or harm immigrants, I will remind them of their horrible   other -hating. Something Christ did not do a lot of. Except for   screaming   “You damn do-gooder” at the Samaritan , Jesus was about loving your ne
