14. Oh' boy...
Random Musings:

Most people will not and some people cannot wrap their minds around this concept of white nationalism run amok. They don't see the history of "liberating" people of color, by killing them and draining the resources of their land, for their own good.

From the Phillipines to Venezuela, from Cambodia to Bolivia, from Vietnam to all of the continued plundering of African nations... No one looks twice at the genotype represented by those who, Westerners tell you, are spreading communism, aren't able to govern themselves, need the WTO/IMF, etc. They also never seem to know that strangely enough, America funded the insurgents that destabilized those governments, or armed them, or trained them in the School of the Americas, forced them to raise prices on necessities (see Bolivia) or pay eye-popping interest rates to the World Bank as a condition of aid, etc.

There was a Black comedian, speaking in front of armed service people, overseas no less, and he got a big laugh when he said something like, "if your complexion is as dark as mine, you'll get shot over here if you don't have your uniform on, or if you're not making a jump shot..."

I'm not being as concise here as I'd like, but I have to go to the gym now... I needed to get this out.
