“This is a difficult time. Between COVID, Black Lives Matter, the Jan. 6th insurrection, and climate change, the paradigm is shifting, and we are still working out what that means. There are no clear rules and that can be scary.”

I have found a clear rule in the definition of an American. In that regard I offer these two paragraphs from an essay.

“The convention delegates found their motivation for scrutinizing proposals from political theories of the Enlightenment emphasizing individual human liberties synthesized into property as defined most immediately by John Locke, William Blackstone, and James Madison. Here property was first sourced internally in personal self-protection, opinion, religion, communications, use of abilities to labor physically and mentally, and in conscience. Only through the exercise of those liberties can one acquire the traditional manifestations of property.”

“The outcome represented an extraordinarily perilous experiment placing primary faith in the inherent natural liberties of imperfect individuals constrained by a limited government; a government requiring members to recognize the dilemma of their own imperfection. Since the emergence of independent colonies and for all time Americans would be defined as sovereign individuals finding their identity in exercising pre-existing intangible liberties within bounds of voluntary self-restraint and accompanied by the hazards and uncertainties of personal freedoms. Their ethnicity, gender, class, and race would always be secondary expressions of humanity.”

What some most white black folks don’t understand is that the world was built to accommodate them by white folks and their culture and thus it does indeed accommodate them.

However, black folks are welcome to join this culture of success. Imagine the condition of black folks without the accomplishments of white folks.

It would be a long list of white people's accomplishments but here's a start: railroads, automobiles, telephones, television, radio, airplanes, computers, software, accurate time keeping, navigation via latitude/longitude, penicillin, probably central heating & air conditioning, clean water on a citywide scale, probably constitutional government ...

Correct me if I'm wrong; I don't mind. Or add to the list; I don't mind that either.

Leftism relies on Western culture’s desire for “fairness” and “justice”.

What happens when more people lose interest in complying with the Left’s notions of “fairness”.

CRT is really an explanation of why minorities as a group, principally blacks, do not excel economically in the society of American opportunity. Economic failure results in a host of other societal ills, such as criminal activity. CRT believes that all racial groups are equally capable on an even playing field and should perform equally to whites. They equate an uneven playing field to “white privilege”.

Upon examining the premise of equality of capability and the societal construct of the playing field, there are two possible conclusions, either the premise of equality of capability is false, or indeed the economic playing field is biased in favor of whites.

The elephant in the room says that much has been studied regarding the lesser innate intelligence of American blacks. The “Bell Curve” and other studied around the world have come to this conclusion. It does not mean the black Americans are less human or less valuable in the eyes of God. So I pose that the premise of equality of capability is false. Why should this not be possible? White men can’t jump.

The minority standing on the sideline only see the outcome of the creativity, dedication and hard work of those that choose to compete. He assumes that all those people have succeeded with capabilities similar to his. This is an error. But his conclusion is that the playing field must be tipped in favor of the whites. What to do?

The best revenge for minorities against White Privilege is to compete and succeed. If you believe that the "playing field" is not level then you have two choices, compete anyway and work even harder to succeed, or go find another playing field.

The other playing field would be to succeed within your own minority community. Black owned businesses in Black neighborhoods, buying from Black distributors and producers.

Minorities will never find a solution in expecting whites to tip the playing field in their direction. The two groups have a completely different view of the field of competition. I think that whites go about their lives competing on the field of life and don't even see the blacks on the sidelines. Blacks stand on the sidelines and have no idea how to get on the field. For some reason they think they need to ask permission of the whites to play?

Just step on the field and compete! Or don't. It’s up to you. But don't blame it on whites if you can't.

“And blacks yell at whites over ‘cultural appropriation’”

Everything—and I do mean everything—that we have appropriated from blacks has damaged Western Civilization, has dragged us down and degraded us.

I agree—stop appropriating everything the slumdog thugs come up with.

““Fair isn’t everyone getting the same thing. Fair is everyone getting what they need in order to be successful!””

Some people are not equipped with much intelligence.

Some people are unwise, and make bad decisions.

Some people can’t get along with others.

Ain’t no way on God’s green earth that everyone is going to get what they need to be successful.

If it were not for Christian white people, blacks would still be slaves.

Tell that truth to these racists and watch their heads explode.
