Super Bowl Halftime Show To Feature Robin DiAngelo Reading 'White Fragility'
The Babylon Bee ^ | 02/06/21 | The Babylon Bee

Posted on 02/07/2021 9:56:58 AM PST by Pining_4_TX

TAMPA, FL—Hundreds of NFL fans are excitedly looking forward to Super Bowl LV between the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Arguably, there’s been even more buzz this year as the halftime show is rumored to consist of a live reading of White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo.

“I can think of nothing more unifying for the country right now than to read how inherently racist America is and all the ways white people are to blame,” said author and diversity trainer Robin DiAngelo. “This will truly bring us together so we can begin healing.”

Sometimes when I read things at the Bee, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. It's too close to the truth.

It took me a few moments to realize this was satire.

Having listened to Rush for 25+ years, it is amazing about how many things he said jokingly of the Left, have become true in the last 2 decades.

Funny, but the sad thing is, I read the headline, and thought immediately it was actual news. Sad that our world is so screwed up that something wacko like that doesn’t even seem like a parody a nymore.

“She will explain that white people have 2 options: either admit they are racist or deny that they are racist, thus proving their racism.”

That part is frightening and true. Next come the show trials.

The wisdom of Rush is without peer. It is the reason he will always be #1 in the opinion world. Think about it. Millions tune in for 3 hours a day to hear his opinion. The most popular podcasts of today pale in comparison.

Talent on loan from God?

Agreed. Many times, the Bee makes prophetic predictione about the Dark Times ahead of us.

If the Stuporbowl creeps don’t read racist sh1t at their half-time show this year, it’s only a question of when they will in the future.

I hope that wasn’t directed at me. The Babylon Bee is a satire site, but it’s so close to the truth that many people think they post real stories. :-)

Colin Kaepernick worships the cop-killing, revolutionary communist, Black Panthers...

"Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 – August 22, 1989) was an African-American political activist and revolutionary who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966. He continued to pursue an education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in social philosophy.[1][2] In 1989 he was shot and killed in Oakland, California. ..."

"As a student at Merritt College in Oakland, Newton became involved in politics in the Bay Area. He joined the Afro-American Association (AAA), became a prominent member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, Beta Tau chapter; and played a role in getting the first African-American history course adopted as part of the college's curriculum.

He read the works of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Frantz Fanon, Malcolm X, Mao Zedong, Émile Durkheim, and Che Guevara.

During his time at Merritt College, he met Bobby Seale, and the two organized the Black Panther Party for Self Defense in October 1966.[3]"

From the article: REVOLUTIONARY HEROES

"On May 1st, May Day [1969], the day of the gigantic Free Huey [Newton] rally, two of Alioto's top executioners vamped on the brothers from the Brown Community who were attending to their own affairs. These brothers, who are endowed with the revolutionary spirit of the Black Panther Party defended themselves from the racist pig gestapo [the police].

Pig Joseph Brodnik received his just reward with a big hole in the chest. Pig Paul McGoran got his in the mouth which was not quite enough to off him.

The revolutionary brothers escaped the huge swarm of pigs with dogs, mace, tanks and helicopters, proving once again that "the spirit of the people is greater than the man's technology."

To these brothers the revolutionary people of racist America want to say, by your revolutionary deed you are heroes, and that you are always welcome to our camp."

Meet the [35] Police Officers Murdered by the Black Panthers [and BP offshoot Black Liberation Army]

The Professional Gunfighter
Posted in: News, Politics, Terrorism

Below are the names and photos of 35 Police Officers who were murdered by the Black Panthers and the subsequent Black Liberation Army in the 60s, 70s and 80s [click link for list and details].

The Black Liberation Army was an organization that grew out of the Black Panther Party, composed of former Black Panther Party members, operating from about 1971-1980. Another two police officers on the list were murdered by the Weather Underground, a domestic terrorist group with ties to the Black Liberation Army.

Despite this readily available information, today the internet was full of articles criticizing those who were upset by Beyonce’s Super Bowl Halftime performance, and questioning how anyone could be upset over a woman “affirming her blackness.” Their analysis couldn’t have been more off.

We have no issues with someone “affirming their blackness” or any other identity they want to affirm. We do take issue when people pay homage to a group that used terrorism and violence to promote racism and revolutionary socialism – a group that murdered dozens of police officers in cold blood.

As you scroll through the list of officers below, look at their photos and read their stories. Among these officers are black men and white men. Rookies and veterans from across the country. Most were killed in unprovoked attacks and ambushes. They all left behind families….

Perhaps Beyonce, someone from the NFL, and someone representing CBS, could read through this list and tell us if they still stand by their decision to honor the Black Panthers during the Super Bowl. Then perhaps they could explain their answers to the surviving wives and children of these fallen officers. ...”

“With the 49ers visiting the Dolphins this week, San Francisco's Colin Kaepernick engaged in a conference call with members of the South Florida media. However, one reporter wanted to discuss something that happened in August, when Kaepernick wore a shirt that appeared to show support for Fidel Castro, which led to a tense exchange.

The shirt depicted scenes from a 1960 meeting between Castro and Malcolm X, and it bore the phrase, “Like minds think alike.” Kaepernick wore it to a news conference after the 49ers’ third preseason game, which was when his refusal to stand during the national anthem became a major national story.”

Unrepentant hypocrite Colin Kaepernick defends Fidel Castro

By Armando Salguero
November 25, 2016

The August evening the nation first noticed Colin Kaepernick taking a knee during the playing of the national anthem at an NFL game, the San Francisco 49ers quarterback held a postgame news conference, as is typical league policy.

At that news conference Kaepernick wore a T-shirt emblazoned with photos from a 1960 meeting between Malcolm X and Fidel Castro.

So after his first notable protest against what last week he called the “systematic oppression” of minorities in the United States, and saying he wants “freedom for all people,” Colin Kaepernick put on a T-shirt that featured a supportive image of one of the 20th century’s most enduring oppressors.

This absurd contradiction between what Kaepernick said and does was only a distant annoyance to me because, although I was born into Cuba’s imprisonment, I don’t often write about Kaepernick or his team.

Satire has become reality.

To paraphrase St. Jerome, the world groaned to find itself insane.

Me too. We encounter so much of this junk in real life these days.

(The NFL really knows how to alienate fans. It has some crazy ‘suicide wish’.)

Check the comment right after yours. Freeper ETL showed the racist Beyonce halftime show. I had actually forgotten about that one.
