Great video up until about 4:11 to where the “Fair Share” Liberal bullshit started pouring out.
One of my favorites is the “look at how many black people are incarcerated for drugs vs. white people who basically do the same thing.” I challenge this statement as a false equivalency. Use some real-world thinking with this one, people, and realize that people aren’t arrested for what they do inasmuch as they are arrested for how visible it is that they’re doing it. Where do you think the majority of white people smoke marijuana? Or drink? In their homes. Where do you think black people do it? Or Latinos? Pretty much out in the streets, in their neighborhoods, where it’s cool and macho to do so along with the rest of your crew or your gang..
It’s like prostitution as well. Out of either hookers or johns, who are the ones that get mostly rounded up and arrested by police? It’s typically the ones who are out in the open, either walking the streets if you’re a prostitute or cruising the streets if you’re a john. And on that note, anyone pulling any statistics on how many johns caught cruising are white vs. black?
“White Guilt” Liberals tried the same tactic when they claimed that police were targeting blacks 70% more for speeding in New Jersey. Despite all the media hype, it turned out to not be any sort of race thing at all – the people speeding were simply mostly black.
And besides, if it was so “white vs. whomever” as far as arresting people goes, then why aren’t we seeing or wouldn’t we see more Chinese people being busted for things? After all, they were pretty discriminated against, too, by the white man and at one point also slaves. Look at how they were made fun of in all those Mickey Rooney movies! Who doesn’t assume they all know martial arts and in turn, catcall them with those Bruce Lee noises whenever we see an Asian walking down the street? After all, #notyourasiansidekick? After so much slavery and stereotyping, why is it then that the Chinese aren’t they jamming up the jails?
And more “Fair Share” Liberal bullshit: The Black Panther Party shown in the video – these were simply an empowered group of African Americans that were …”finally allowed to police their own streets?” Please. Here’s one of their little love notes from back in 1968:
“Black brothers stop vamping on the hippies. They are not your enemy. Your enemy, right now, is the white racist pigs who support this corrupt system. Your enemy is the Tom nigger who reports to his white slavemaster every day. Your enemy is the fat capitalist who exploits your people daily. Your enemy is the politician who uses pretty words to deceive you. Your enemy is the racist pigs who use Nazi-type tactics and force to intimidate black expressionism. Your enemy is not the hippies. Your blind reactionary acts endanger THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY members and its revolutionary movements. WE HAVE NO QUARREL WITH THE HIPPIES. LEAVE THEM ALONE. Or – THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY will deal with you.”
The reason the BPP gets a free pass by Fair Share Liberals – just like any other corrupt institution does such as Acorn, the EPA, or even Hillary does for that matter – is because they’re the loser hippies that this passage refers to, and those who have to feel like they’re fighting for something or someone since they’re incapable of fighting for their own better lives themselves.
It’s this loser “fair share” liberal spin that causes, I believe, these videos to ultimately alienate the people they seem to be trying to influence and in turn why most every “fair share” liberal cause gets reduced to laughable and even pathetic ineptness.
People might think the whole “White Guilt” thing, by weaseling its way into the national discourse is helping things, but I can tell you that where decisions are actually made and things actually happen on an institutional level that it isn’t, and it won’t. How do I know? Because myself and others are in a unique position to work with academia, law enforcement, and business together in order to try and improve minority business and minority communities. These sorts of videos get brought up, discussed, and then dismissed as simply more loserism.
Shall we now turn to the brief mention of eugencists in this video? Take a look at how many rich white racists are at the head (and start) of Planned Parenthood.
Anyways, happy Saturday! :)

So let me get this straight. The black people in the United States are incarcerated, abused, and murdered at a greater rate because of the spatial location of their activities? The racial divide in the US could be solved if more black people just toked up at home?
Of all the sad defences of white privilege I’ve seen written in my short time here on earth this ranks as one of the strangest. Still repugnant, but full marks for ‘teh weird’.
Racism in the US is a systemic problem – it doesn’t get fixed by individuals pulling up their bootstraps and improving their situations – how do you pull up your bootstraps when the society you inhabit has deemed that you and the people of your race are better off barefoot? Not to mention blaming you for being barefoot in the first place and castigating you for your lack of shoes…
Except that race is a thing when dealing with incarceration rates. Should I bother with citations? No really; because as soon as I see you mention ‘fair share’ anything – all I see is you sitting on top of bullshit mountain with your hands over your ears complaining about how liberals will be the end of civilization and all things good and just.
Breaching the ideology of bullshit mountain isn’t my job and I won’t spend my time arguing against it.
Red herrings. And really, do you have a list of things that you like to mention at random that somehow support your ideology? It’s like watching climate deniers shout “what about the hockey stick” or “global cooling” or more akin to this comment – “well it’s snowing here right now, therefore AGW simply cannot be true…”
And here, ladies and gentlemen is why we have social movements, protests and radical uprisings. It is precisely this – the institutional blindness, ignorance, and hubris that prevents effective change from happening. Way to keep the status-quo going.
Your opinion is noted.
Fascinating. It’s like Margaret Sanger has a little red book that all of PP must adhere to, even to this day. I heard they’ve done away with individual name tags, everyone at PP just goes by “sanger’ these days.
…
Nice trolling Vern.
