Too Many Murdered to Count: US Government is Funding Ongoing Genocide by Barbaric, Crazy IsrAliens in the Name of Deluded Sheeple in the US

terrorist organizations – embryonic “governments,” the members of which who can successfully challenge the nation-state or Corporate State’s claim to a monopoly on legitimized violence, mayhem and murder.

Israeliens – impostor (pale interloper alien) Hebrews—Eastern European stock Caucasians who adopted the philosophy, myths, fables, and traditions of the so-called “Jews” while living in Russia—masquerading as if they had any genetic or historical ancestry and cultural heritage to the Afrikan Hebrews, the Afrim people, who occupied Canaan (Palestine) from ancient times. 2) those who currently are occupying Palestine (the land of Canaan), colonizing and killing its rightful descendants, historic owners and dwellers), and are undeniably alien (foreign—not aboriginal) to that land. 3) impostor Hebrews originating from the Pale of Settlement in Kazzarian Russia currently an occupying force (militarily holed-up and propped-up by US financial support and British skullduggery) in occupied Palestine. 4) alien Jews—Pinchbeck Hebrews. Israeliens are East Europeans with no genetic or actual historic ties whatsoever to the land now called Palestine. Israeliens have brainwashed (and fooled) themselves and many others into believing this historical lie and propaganda that they are the descendents of “Jews” (a misnomer for African Hebrews, itself a misnomer for the Afrim people). Anyone with a modicum of research skills, knowledge of basic geography, philology, and an unbiased-by-religious-myth mind can easily confirm or validate this fact for his or herself. Both so-called Sephardim and Ashkenazim “Jews” are not historically tied to the Afrim. It’s not that Caucasians who have adopted the “Jewish” religion shouldn’t have a place to live—but how about suggesting relocating where they came from—the hills of Russia, and not on another peoples’ land. You don’t invade (break into) someone’s house (property) and expect them to just go away and not fight to get it back (despite how much force, murdering, deception, and propaganda that is brought to bear to justify such wrongful invasion and genocide). Psychological repression is both invisible and reflexive.

Media Looks the Other Away as Lebron James Threatens to Assault White Woman During Game – TNT Edits Footage, Conceals Story to Protect Specially Protected Rolebotic KneeGrow
/IT WAS A JOKE . . BUT WHAT WAS THE PUNCHLINE? IN CONTRAST TO IGNORING BRON’S CONDUCT, TNT EXPOSED JAMAL MURRAY: “From deep on Denver’s bench, the TNT cameras CAUGHT THE NUGGETS GUARD throwing A heat pack ONTO THE COURT. [MORE] MURRAY WAS FINED $100,000
Perhaps the Greatest Showcase Black of All Time? Elite racists allowed their Showcase kneegrow LeBron to threaten a white woman fan during playoff game.
Elite racists have created an entire community of “Showcase Blacks” or rolebotic Blacks whom they control through various rewards and punishments. Said role-bots have priceless value to racists in the system of racism white Supremacy. FUNKTIONARY explains, “A role-bot merely plays the role of the mask - the personae - society issued and approved.” Said “coin-operated negros” are high-profile blacks that are constantly paraded before the public. They may be political dignitaries, pro athletes, entertainers, educators, business people, judges or elected officials. Anon explains, Showcase Blacks are not showcasing themselves, they are being showcased by white supremacists to promote some aspect of racism white supremacy (RWS).’
Generally speaking, within the system of racism white supremacy Black individuals have no power to harm white people as a group - unless they are allowed to or directed to do so by elite whites. Anon states, ‘a black person whose power comes from a white institution will not be allowed to mistreat whites - unless he or she is following orders from more powerful whites. . . A white supremacy system by its very NATURE forbids ALL non-white people - regardless of wealth, status, or position - from victimizing white people.’ [MORE] In most instances when a Black person actually harms a white person he/she is summarily dealt with by elite whites who control all areas of people activity in various contexts (SEE the racial disparity statistics for whenever a non-white defendant harms a white victim). For example, in the very, very rare case of a Black police officer unlawfully harming a white citizen - said cops are generally fired and prosecuted “promptly” or Starbucks quick , thereby alleviating any need for protesting, teddy bear posting or ‘white lives matter’ chanting and begging to authorities.
Here, LeMedia immediately concealed LeBron’s conduct during a live game and ignored the incident as a non-story. As AOH’s video indicates, within seconds TNT edited LeBron’s conduct out of the highlight. Clearly he was joking - but what was the punchline? ‘I can punch a woman in the face!’ Hoho hilarious. Surely, no regular Black man could get way with such conduct - threatening a white woman in front of an audience of millions. The dependent media, which Ishmael Reed describes as a “segregated white-owned enterprise with billions of dollars at their disposal,” has apparently looked the other way because he is a tool of racist elites who serves some purpose and usefulness to the system of racism white supremacy. Obviously, Lebron is ineligible for “White privilege,” which FUNKTIONARY defines as “an invisible package of unearned assets bequeathed to all Caucasians or an invisible weightless knapsack of advantages.” [MORE] But as an elite showcase Black and in exchange for dutifully playing his role, Lebron has been given an “invisible knapsack of advantages” which include exaggerating his accomplishments, ignoring his frequent lack of competitiveness, overlooking his clutch time disappearances, equating his obvious mediocrity with excellence and consistently ignoring or concealing his most egregious loser conduct.

Propagenda – propaganda developed and directed to a particular audience as a means of predictive programming for accepting someone’s agenda as their very own. (See: $pinfidels, Predictive Programming & Coin-Operated)
predictive programming – an ancient technique of downloading (marketing) an idea into the subconscious of the conditioned mass-mind (step-by-step) guiding (bringing) the duped victims into a desired or predetermined conclusion that they actually believe was consciously derived on their own. Predictive programming works down through the centuries like a charm. Everyone is standardized with the same indoctrination—conditioned under the same mis-education and disinformation. Since we all watch the same TV and download the same standardized education, it never occurs that we are getting conned, uploaded, downgraded, brainchipped and ultimately faded from any memory of being an individual self. “Most folk’s beliefs and what they think is induced beliefs, is propagated into them through repetition as Bertrand Russell said. Just repetitive advertising and people start parroting it in their daily lives and it’s actually changing the structure of their mind into acceptance of something they don’t even perceive yet.” ~Alan Watt. With predictive programming you are entrained to accept something that has not yet happened (but will) and respond to it just like the characters in the movie—performing and dream-weaving what you’ve subliminally consumed.

Under the Guise of ‘fighting crime’ Authorities are Filling Prisons w/Blacks: The US has 1.8 Million Incarcerated individuals. Nearly 40% are Black, yet Blacks make up only 13% of the population
/From [HERE] The US prides itself on being a nation built on freedom, justice, and individual rights. And yet the evolution of its system of mass incarceration — a system that cannot be defined without reference to shocking racial disparities — seems to directly contradict these founding principles.
The US prison population dwarfs those of nearly every other country. As of Dec. 2023, the US had some 1.8 million incarcerated individuals. China trailed with just under 1.7 million — but these figures are incomparable when factoring in the fact that China’s general population size is more than quadruple that of the US.
And among the US prison population, more than 37 percent of those incarcerated are Black. This is particularly unnerving because Black people make up only 13 percent of the country’s total population.
How did we get here?
Beginning in the 1970s, the idea of protecting public safety by implementing policies that were “tough on crime” became increasingly politically valuable. Philosophy Professor Shari Stone-Mediatore describes these policies as “stiff criminal codes, long prison sentences, laws that facilitate police search and seizure, laws that make it more difficult to challenge a wrongful conviction, and stringent parole boards.” Taken together, these policies laid the groundwork for the expansion of the US criminal justice system.
It was against this backdrop that President Richard Nixon launched his so-called “War on Drugs,” aimed at combatting drug addiction through punitive measures, and formed the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), which enforces drug laws and works to limit drug supplies. Years later, the Sentencing Reform Act of 1984created longer sentences for people convicted of drug crimes. Mandatory minimum sentencing laws and harsh penalties that arose from the “tough on crime” policies combined to cause a surge in the number of people incarcerated for drug offenses — a trend that continues to this day.
This heightened criminal enforcement occurred in the aftermath of the deinstitutionalization movement — US policies aimed at reducing the number of individuals confined to psychiatric institutions. During the 1950s and 1960s, the number of patients committed to such facilities was approximately triple that of the country’s prison population, according to a 2013 journal article published by the University of Chicago. As pressure mounted to reduce inpatient populations, pressure also increased to impose harsh sentences against drug users, leading legal scholars Steven Raphael and Michael A. Stoll to conclude at the time that “a sizable portion of the mentally ill behind bars would not have been incarcerated in years past.”
In 1975, the incarcerated population surpassed the committed population and has continued to rise in the ensuing decades. Since the start of the 1970s, the US prison population has expanded by 500%. [MORE]
'like being locked in a casket you Can't escape.' Class Action of Black/Latino Inmates Says NY Authorities Continue to Detain Disabled People in Solitary Confinement Despite Law Banning it
/From [HERE] A class action complaint filed this week accuses New York prison officials of holding disabled inmates in solitary confinement in violation of state law.
Solitary confinement has been a core feature of the US penal system since the 18th century — dating back to the earliest state prisons, where the inmates seen as most depraved were isolated to prevent the spread of their moral influence. Though these days officials tend to prefer the term “special housing units” (SHU), the punishment remains essentially unaltered and can include up to 24 hours of isolation each day for years, even decades. Activists have long criticized solitary confinement as ineffective and tantamount to torture.
Based in part on these concerns, New York enacted a law in 2021 designed to limit the use of solitary confinement and to encourage forms of confinement that were less punitive and more rehabilitative and therapeutic in nature. The Humane Alternatives to Long-Term Solitary Confinement Act (HALT) was designed to limit the use of solitary confinement and to encourage the use of less punitive, more therapeutic confinement options. In part, the law forbids prison officials from imposing the punishment against members of groups seen as particularly vulnerable to the ill effects of isolation in all but true emergency situations. Among those listed are people with disabilities and people with histories of trauma.
Several named plaintiffs representing a class of “themselves and all others similarly situated” filed a complaint this week with New York’s Supreme Court for Kings County alleging that since HALT was enacted, prison officials have denied its benefits to “hundreds of people with disabilities.” All the plaintiffs are Black or Latino.
In a statement released Tuesday, the advocacy groups and attorneys representing the plaintiffs alleged New York prison officials have created exceptions to HALT by narrowing the definition of “disability” to improperly exclude certain conditions. They highlight the cases of several named plaintiffs with mental and physical conditions whose health they claim has deteriorated as a result of these violations.
The complaint states,
Plaintiffs bring this case on behalf of two overlapping groups of incarcerated people with disabilities whom Defendants subject to solitary confinement in violation of HALT.
First, all Plaintiffs bring this case on behalf of a Practice Class, defined more specifically below, of people with disabilities whom Defendants subject to solitary confinement by holding them in cells for more than 17 hours per day. Plaintiffs, on behalf of the Practice Class, seek an injunction prohibiting Defendants from placing members of the Practice Class in solitary confinement, and a declaration that Defendants’ current practice of doing so violates HALT.
Second, Plaintiffs Adams, Allen, Gneco, Greene, and Peña bring this case on behalf of a Policy Class, defined more specifically below, of people who have certain disabilities but whom Defendants, through their continuing policies, deny the disability-based protections of HALT, and put at constant risk of placement in segregated confinement. These policies—which Defendants promulgated after the codification of HALT and which they maintain today—permit the use of solitary confinement for people with many types of disabilities, including, for example, people with posttraumatic stress disorder, speech disabilities, and some mobility disabilities, as well as people who are hard of hearing or have low vision. Defendants have relied on these policies to impose segregated confinement on hundreds of people with disabilities, including numerous Plaintiffs, who should be excluded from solitary confinement under HALT. Plaintiffs, on behalf of the Policy Class, seek a declaration that these policies violate HALT, and an injunction prohibiting the maintenance of ongoing policies that narrow HALT’s protections. [MORE]
When it released its annual solitary confinement report in 2020, the New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS) wrote that it was in the process of implementing prohibitions on the placement of people with disabilities in solitary confinement. In June 2023, the organization issued Directive #4933D, essentially codifying the requirements of HALT. The same month, the DOCCS released a report outlining its efforts to comply with HALT, in which it asserted the number of inmates confined to the SHU had dropped by 80% over the past year.
In the latter report, the DOCCS leadership expressed pride in their achievements:
There is no doubt that the Department has undergone significant change over the last few years. Indeed, the extent of structural changes experienced during this time may very well be the greatest experienced by the Department in its history. … Legislative changes have had profound impacts on facility operations. The HALT Solitary Confinement Law required the Department to fundamentally alter the disciplinary system, including the creation of new Residential Rehabilitation Units and instituting strict criteria and time limits for when an incarcerated individual can be placed in a Special Housing Unit.
But in the interim, , the organization appears to have replaced its annual write-ups with spreadsheets providing vague data points related to demographic breakdowns of those subjected to solitary confinement, as well as overviews of provoking incidents. These reports lack detailed information on the nature of confined inmates’ health challenges, categorizing mental health concerns only along a numbered spectrum.
The plaintiffs’ advocates challenge the adequacy of DOCCS’ measures. Josh Rosenthal, supervising attorney with the organization Disability Rights Advocates, said:
It is long past time for the State to end the use of solitary confinement for people with disabilities. … New York’s passage of the HALT Act represented an historic and important step in preventing the harms that solitary causes for incarcerated people with disabilities. But words are not enough, and [New York prison authorities] must comply with state law and stop this vicious practice once and for all.
Retired Black Judge was Just Another NGHR to American Airlines’ Racist Suspect Flight Attendant who Ordered Her to the Back of the Plane
/From [HERE] A Black retired judge from Chicago said she was flying first class when an American Airlines flight attendant accused her of slamming the first-class restroom door and later directed her to use the facilities in the back of the plane.
The retired judge, Judge Pamela Hill-Veal, told NPR that the incident happened on a Feb. 10 flight from Chicago to Phoenix.
The first time that she used the first-class restroom, Hill-Veal said, the flight attendant told her that she slammed the door and should not do it again because passengers were sleeping. Hill-Veal denied slamming the door.
The second time that she used the first-class restroom, the flight attendant reprimanded her, according to Hill-Veal.
“He began to berate me by pointing his finger at me towards my face,” Hill-Veal told NPR.
She alleges that the flight attendant told her, “I told you not to slam the door … so from now on, you are to use the restroom in the back of the plane,” which was in coach.
When she used the first-class restroom a third time, Hill-Veal said, the flight attendant followed her to her seat, began to touch her and warned that she would be arrested when the plane landed. He accused Hill-Veal of hitting him and said he didn’t like the way that she was speaking to him, she said.
Hill-Veal said she never hit the flight attendant, and she thinks that the incident was racially motivated.
White Kansas Prosecutor Who Framed Lamonte McIntyre Surrenders Her Law License, Faces Disbarment. Innocent Black Man Spent 23 Years in Prison
/Terra Morehead, a longtime county and federal prosecutor who helped police frame at least one innocent Black man, has agreed to surrender her law license and faces disbarment (article available here). She is white [racist suspect].
Morehead, who retired from the U.S. Attorney's Office in Kansas last August and notorious for skirting legal protections for defendants, agreed to surrender her license as part of an agreement with the Kansas Board for Discipline of Attorneys. She is awaiting disbarment from the Kansas Supreme Court, according to court filings.

Who Are the Real Criminals When an Innocent Black Man Spends 25 Years on Death Row? Jury Awards $16M to James Dennis, Finds that White Philadelphia Cops and DA Hid Exculpatory Evidence
/A jury has awarded $16 million to a Black man whose murder conviction was overturned after he spent 25 years on death row — the largest wrongful conviction payout in city history. (here).
James Dennis, 53, always insisted he was innocent and had been sentenced to death for a 1991 murder he did not commit.
A federal judge overturned his conviction in 2013, calling it a “grave miscarriage of justice,” saying detectives and prosecutors covered up evidence that proved Dennis didn't commit the crime. He was later released from prison.
After a nine-day trial, jurors said Dennis was owed $16 million — $10 million in compensatory damages from the city, and $3 million from each of the two detectives who the jury determined “engaged in malicious or wanton misconduct.” [MORE]
Oklahoma Prison Staff Traumatized by Non-Stop “Executions” [of mostly blacks] Request Gaps in the Death Penalty [murder] Schedule [OK’s Death Row is 41% Black yet Blacks are Only 7% of the Population]
/The relentless pursuit of “non-stop executions” by a rump of death penalty states is exposing prison staff to extreme levels of psychological and physical stress, according to traumatized corrections officers who are appealing for help (article available here (link is external)).
In Oklahoma, officers at the state penitentiary in McAlester, which houses the death chamber, are so stretched by the schedule of 25 executions set in 2022 by the Republican-controlled state that the state’s own attorney general and the head of the prison service have appealed to the courts for a more staggered approach. They have requested that the gap between executions be widened from 60 to 90 days, so far to no avail.
The unprecedented move to try to cool the pace of executions followed a joint letter(link is external) to the state’s attorney general, Gentner Drummond, from nine former senior corrections officials. They warned that staff were being subjected to “lasting trauma” and a “psychological toll” that included post-traumatic stress disorder, alcohol abuse and distress due to the “non-stop executions”.

Police Killings Set Record in 2023: Blacks Made up 26% of All those Killed [Initiating Unprovoked Acts of Violence on Others is Immoral whether its done by citizens or by people wearing Blue Costumes]
/US police brutality hit a new record in 2023 breaking last year’s record as police officers killed at least 1,232 people in 2023 according to Mapping Police Violence. In 2022 cops killed 1,183 people. [MORE]
Black people disproportionately made up 26% of all those killed by police despite being only 13% of the US population. Killings of Black people also rose - as least year Blacks accounted for slightly less deaths at 25%. [MORE] In fact in 2023 Black people were the most likely people to be killed by cops. Blacks are 3X more likely to be killed than whites and 1.3X as likely as white people to be unarmed.
Born into this arrangement we have been miseducated to believe that “political authority” is part of the natural order of organizing human relations. Yet this is actually nonsense. The source of the police brutality problem and many many others is so-called “authority”- the implied right to rule over people. It is the belief that some people [authorities] have the moral and legal right to forcibly control others [citizens], and that, consequently, those citizens have the moral obligation to obey.’ [more] Here in this context, we are discussing the authorities known as police officers, who as representatives of authority, have somehow been empowered to use force offensively against citizens.
Contrary to lofty legal pronouncements and pretenses of civility, authority is evil and there is no legitimate or rational way to account for belief in its existence.
All force used offensively (not in self-defense) is excessive and immoral. Acts that would be considered unjust or morally unacceptable when performed by people are just as unjust or morally unacceptable when performed by government agents. Putting your hands on another human being, not in self-defense but offensively, without their consent and ‘manipulating their body in disregard of their volition is evil’, whether its done by citizens or representatives of “authority” wearing blue costumes. Laws cannot alter morality. Larken Rose explains, “authority is permission to commit evil – to do things that would be recognized as immoral and unjustified if anyone else did them.” subconsciously we know that ruling over others by force is barbaric.
There is no rational basis for the belief in authority. All governmental power purportedly is derived solely from the people. However, the government has somehow granted itself the power to do things that no individual citizen could ever do. While citizens have the inalienable right to act in self-defense or come to the defense of others, citizens have no right to initiate unprovoked acts of violence on other people and have no right to forcibly control other people. As such, it is impossible for citizens to delegate the power to forcibly control others to the government - because citizens cannot possibly delegate powers to the government that they don’t have. Other explanations for authority such as the “social contract” theory have been thoroughly debunked. [more] Although we assume there is some valid explanation for why the government should be entitled to engage in behavior that would be deemed to violate individual rights if performed by anyone other than the government, there is none. [more] And [more] Authority, the basis for all governments and rulership, is a farce. [more] As explained by Funktionary, freedom cannot exist in the presence of so-called authority.

Is it MAGA Republicans or Mostly White Liberal Landlords Evicting Mostly Black Tenants Into the Streets? Evictions Soar in CA, Elsewhere. Media Pretends Unknown Forces Cause Black/Latino Homelessness
/From [HERE] Eviction cases soared across California in the year after the last portion of a statewide moratorium lapsed, a CalMatters analysis of court data shows.
The elevated numbers — in some places beyond pre-pandemic levels — show a significant portion of renters remain at risk of losing their homes, despite the state’s rollout of a $5 billion rent relief program during the pandemic and a yearslong pause on many eviction cases that many landlords have said disrupted their businesses and income. A nationwide study published this year found increases in eviction filings are associated with slight upticks in the population of homeless people living in shelters.
The statewide moratorium was extended until June 2022 for those who had applied for rental assistance by March, barring evictions in cases where tenants had not paid rent and said they couldn’t because of financial hardship wrought by the pandemic. The law didn’t stop evictions completely — thousands were still locked out under various exceptions — but it dropped cases to record lows. After it ended, a patchwork of local protections for tenants kicked in for cities that had passed their own eviction limits, which then phased out later in 2022 or earlier this year. [MORE]

white propaganda - a game two can play—which consists simply in repeating '"I am better than you" and "you are utterly unlike (opposite to) me" over and over again; despite the historical record to the contrary. (See: Black Propaganda, Intoxification, Oppositional Imaging, Oppositionalism, Neuropeans, Superiority Complex, Caucasian & Disinformation)
A major part of white supremacy is the annihilation of Black self respect.
FUNKTIONARY explains that social relations between Blacks and whites are mediated by false images and narratives within The Spectacle. In this constructed reality the totality of the messaging and images presented are the actual materialization of the ideology of racism white supremacy. Dr. Blynd states The Spectacle is “the mirrorization of the noumenon into the phenomenal universe without understanding or overstanding it as such an objectivization in duality.” Neely Fuller explains, “racism is not merely a pattern of individual and/or institutional practice; it is a universally operating "system" of white supremacy and domination in which the majority of the world's white people participate.” "There is no known code of White Supremacy that can be formally recognized as such in a single set of words or pictures. The basic code of white supremacy is the total pattern of everyday thought, speech and action of the individual white persons who practice it. All things that help to promote it are apart of the white code." [MORE]
Like a lubricant, relentless propaganda helps to maintain the cooperative, consensual master-servant relationship between Blacks and whites and has kept Black people in a "continuous state of checkmate” and a “losing streak that is centuries long” in a white over Black system. Coin-operated negroes acting and appearing on SNL and elsewhere are safe and provide a re-assuring message to racists; we are your servants and you are our masters. Elite racists have created an army of Black rolebotic, obedient entertainers, athletes and celebrities to SNigger, bounce, grin, cry, act like children and probotically parrot their masters in service of white domination and subservience to authority. Said SNiggers appear on television, movies, sporting events and social media as thousands of Black characters (or personalities for Blacks to imitate) to disempower and demean Black people while simultaneously providing proof of “white people’s” self-worth, moral standing and superiority in general. Black people must be literally kept out of their minds to tolerate this bullshit propaganda - and they are. [MORE]
According to Dr. Amos Wilson,
"Psychic Violence — The most powerful obstacle against the liberation of Afrikan peoples from White domination and exploitation is not the ability of Whites to use superior military or police firepower or their threat to use it against Afrikan insurgency, but is their ability to engage in unrelenting psychopolitical violence against the collective Afrikan psyche. It is the White monopoly on psychic violence and their devastatingly ingenious use of it against the minds of Afrikan peoples which represent the greatest threat to Afrikan survival. Wrong insightfully points out the nature of this form of violence:
[T]here is a form of conduct, often described as psychic, psychological or moral force or violence, which does not fit readily under the rubrics of any of the other forms of power. If physical violence involves inflicting damages on the body of a person, how is one to classify the deliberate effort to affect adversely a person's emotions or his feelings and ideas about himself by verbally, or in other symbolic ways, insulting or degrading him? If. . . power includes the production of purely mental or emotional effects and is not confined to the eliciting of overt acts, then the psychic assault of, say, a nagging, browbeating spouse or parent, the defamation of the character of a political foe or even of an entire group, constitute exercises of power. .
Damage to the psyche is surely as real as damage to the body . . . It is plainly not true that 'sticks and stones may break my bones but names can never hurt me'. Psychic violence, in which the intended effect of the perpetrator is to inflict mental or emotional harm, is continuous with physical violence.
The ultimate force in the world is the force of mind. When that force is defeated all is lost.
Dominant Whites have used words and symbols to violently and unrelentingly attack oppressed Blacks in a thousand and one nefarious ways, including the projection of dehumanizing stereotypes and caricatures of them; the falsification of their history and culture; the miseducation of Blacks; and the engaging in chronic derisive media attacks on their morals, behavior, intelligence, ways of life, sexuality, physical features, motives and values.
The final end of the violent White-instigated psychic assaults against the collective psyche of Blacks is to induce in them states of false consciousness, self-alienation and self-hatred so as to irreparably impair their capacity to overthrow their White oppressors through the mobilization of their human and material resources.
False consciousness, self-alienation and self-hatred are conjoining states of mind which motivate oppressed Blacks to engage in continuing self-defeating, self-destructive assaults against their own interests and against themselves. Consequently, by these means Blacks are unwittingly manipulated into forming alliances with their oppressors and exploiters in disempowering themselves and in empowering those who dominate and exploit them all the more.
ANON ASKS: "Who Is Most To Blame? Black Comics Or The Black Audience? If we did not support black entertainers who degrade black people, they could not make money doing it. When our "comedy" ridicules our heroes, like Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks, our religion, churches, pastors, our beautiful black mommas, and our skin, noses, lips, and hair, WE make it harder for every black man, woman, and child to get respect at home, at work, on the street, in the courts, at the mortgage company, and at the hands of law enforcement.
By supporting and defending black "entertainers" who degrade black people for profit, WE are making life harder for every black male who applies for a job and is denied one because he has been stereotyped as an irresponsible fool before he opens his mouth. WE are making life harder for our black mothers, daughters, wives, and lovers to get the respect they deserve, when they are publicly referred to as "bitches" and "hos" by us. Yet we — black people -- demand respect as "black people" even when it is obvious we DO NOT RESPECT ourselves?" [MORE]
Coercion as Power
The instrumental use of force or the threatened use of force by the power holder to attain the compliance of another is often referred to as coercion. Coercion is therefore a form of power. It is of the utmost importance to note as did Wrong that "a coercer may succeed without possessing either the capability or the intention of using force, so long as the power subject believes he possesses both" [Emphasis added]. That is, the coercive power of the power holder may rest significantly less or not at all on his actual capacity to harm the subject, but may rest more or less completely on the subordinate subject's belief that the power holder can do so. This perspective, commonly referred to as "bluffing," allows us to recognize the fact that in many instances power holders exercise power over their subjects because of the subjects' misperceptions and misunderstandings, or false beliefs about the power holders' ability to restrict their options or possibilities. Wartenberg refers to this situation as the Oz Phenomenon, "for it shows that agents are able to coerce other agents by acting upon their beliefs rather than by controlling their action-environment directly." He further contends
that coercive power relations can be brought into existence by means of the subordinate agent's false understandings about the ability of the dominant agent to harm him. This is an important source of power for a dominant agent so long as her ability to realize her threat is not questioned [and challenged].1 [Emphasis added]
While the ability of the dominant agent to coerce the subordinate subject may rest heavily on the subject's exaggerated misperception of the dominant agent's actual capacity to do him harm, equally and often of greater importance, the ability of the dominant agent to coerce the subject may rest on the subject's misperception and underestimation of his own capacity to successfully thwart the coercive or punitive actions of the dominant agent. The often anemic self-concept of subordinate persons and groups, their low self-esteem, their ignorance of their actual strengths, are more the causes of their subordination than is the actual strength of their oppressors.
The long history of White American domination of Black Americans — which has been enforced and reinforced by the use of physical force and violence, psychic violence and coercive power — has in effect convinced the majority of Blacks that Whites are invincible. Moreover, this history has undermined the self-confidence of most Blacks, narrowed their vision of their possibilities and power, restricted their aspirations to the narrow confines of racial accommodation and assimilation, to being the paternalistic recipients of White sympathy rather than expanding their aspirations to include the overcoming of White power and achieving full, unfettered self-liberation. The unending maintenance of this self-defeating state of mind in Blacks is the fundamental objective of White power and the keystone upon which the infrastructural facade of White power rests. [MORE]
Elite Racists and their Rolebots Have Tricked Sheeple Into Believing ‘King Was a Dreamer:’ MLK was a Non-Violent Rebel, Willing to Give His Life to Obtain Freedom and Destroy All Forms of Slavery
/FUCK A DREAM AND FUCK ALL CHEEK TURNING TO PERSONS WHO ARE BARBARIC AND UNCIVILIZED
According to the great rebel Sam Greenlee:
HE HAD A DREAM
I wonder what he thought in
that
flashing,
fleeting,
pain-filled
moment when he must have
realized that turn the cheek
don’t work when you been
slapped by a .30-.30 slug?
IN THE SPECTACLE ELITE RACISTS SPEAK TO BLACK SHEEPLE THROUGH ‘AMATEUR PROBOT’ ENTERTAINERS, ATHLETES, COMEDIANS, LEGIS-TRAITORS AND OTHER COIN-OPERATED, WOODEN DUMMIES who aslo function as their political leaders. to rational observers this is digression. Neely Fuller might describe this devolution as part of the “the refinement of the system of racism white supremacy.” FUNKTIONARY explains the white over black system of vast unequal power is now maintained through “cooperative control” and consensual master/servant relations between whites and Blacks. ISIAH THOMAS (in photo above) PROBABLY HAS A VAGINA.
According to FUNKTIONARY:
rebel – one who lives authentically in the present, spontaneously responding to life according to the dictates of his/her inner voice and undivided intent and unrelenting will. Rebellion is unorganized, autonomous and individualistic. Wherever there is organized rebellion, it is no longer rebellion but rather revolution planned by revolutionaries—for in the very organization, the rebellion and the rebel both die. Revolution is a social phenomenon; rebellion is meditative. Lao Tzu was a rebel; Confucius and Karl Marx were not rebels. Martin Luther was purely a cunning politician fronting as a rebel, joining vested interests after creating a rift in Christianity. He was protesting the power of the Pope, not so that power should be distributed, but that he should be given the power. The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., on the other hand, was a non-violent rebel. The philosophy of a rebel is always that of decentralization of power, and is the acid test of the true nature of a rebellion. A rebel is one who would rather live in hell along with those who are Alive authentically living their own reality than to be in heaven with those thinking they hold and know the truth—vicariously living. If your mama or daddy taught you well, you wouldn’t conform, assimilate, or shirk, you’d raise your frequency, change the channel and rebel. For a rebel, its space is always here, and its time is always now. To a rebel, the past is an unnecessary burden—one need not carry it. (See: Authenticity, Presence, Selt-Realization, Protestant, Pope, The Reformation, Revolution, Religion, Ideology, Ego, Mass, Class, Collective, Assimilation, Conformity & Rebellion)
“rebel” – (as commonly understood)—anyone who blames the “System” or “They” (i.e. the powers that believe themselves to be) or the scapegoat-du-jour for everything perceived to be “wrong”—yet fails to take responsibility for the power and autonomy he or she has unknowingly abdicated (given away) to the very force that is responsible for his or her paranoia, displeasure, injustice, discomfort, repression, oppression, resentment, sublimation, anxiety, despair, condemnation or ire. 2) someone who goes against something because it has power or alleged authority over him/her. 3) one who mistakes outer revolution for inner evolution. (See: Volunteer Servitude, “Assemblage Point,” Autonomy, Rebellion, Parental Conditioning, Oppression, Participation, Identification, Justice, Inherent Rights, Adherent Rights, Mastar, Individuation, Freedom, Liberation, Resistance & Citizen)
rebelation – (Subonics)—a revelation received (or insight projected) that imparts the message: to get up, stand-up, and fight for one’s authenticity, integrity, dignity and survival. Just because you may stand-up for something does not necessarily imply that you are upstanding or that you won’t fall for anything either. (See: Rebellion, Transformation & Resistance)
All Praise to White Authority and Dominance on 12/25 [Blacks don't relate to and serve Jesus in the Same Way for the same reasons Whites do, even though it appears they do and they think they do]
/According to FUNKTIONARY:
accommodationism – genuine American homegrown Third World socioeconomic conditions relative to wealth and health. An overlay of injurious interplay where everything in the nightmarish dream of the submissive minority blends with the dominant reality of the last Alabastion (Anglo-world) majority—a parody of oops too-late 21st century friendly fascism disguised as scientific socialism playing the role of monopoly capitalism, itself masked innocuously as captive capitalism. 2) giving the devil its tribute or due even as it is running after you to complete (perfect) its undoing of you—always getting caught on a “dismantled scene, where the wind plays sunset checkers with clouds of Big Mac wrappers” providing a sense of order to the chaos laminating your life. Why is the running joke always chasing those who have the least to laugh about? (See: THC, Violence, Racism White Supremacy, Unaccommodationism, Monopoly Capitalism, Fascism & Socialism)
DOMINATING PEOPLE THROUGH IDEAS. The great rebel Dr. Amos Wilson explained racists dominate Black people through ideas. These ideas appear to be neutral but they are not. To the contrary various concepts and ideas disempower Blacks while simaultaneously empowering whites. Wilson states;
‘We must keep in mind that enslaved Afrikans were not Christians when they were brought to the New World. They were predominantly practitioners of their indigenous Afrikan code of ethics. Therefore, the Christian religion along with its ideological doctrines were taught to and imposed on enslaved African[s] by their White masters. Obviously, the masters taught the slaves Christianity for their own conscious and unconscious self-serving reasons. The theology they passed on to their slaves was necessarily biased in order to serve and justify their dominance. . . . Blacks do not relate to, pray to, and serve Jesus Christ in the same way, for the same reasons Whites do, even though it appears they do. Christianity as a central cultural institution, has not empowered the Black community in the same ways it has empowered the White community, or as it has the other alien Christian communities, or in ways other communities are empowered by their own religious institutions. As a matter of fact, Christianity as it is practiced in the Afrikan American community has probably done as much to disempower that community than to empower it. . . . Christianity taught [to] the slaves by their masters or by the dominant Whites, served to rationalize and justify the status quo of White mastery and Black slavery; White dominance and Black subordination; White command and Black obedience. This ambivalent function of Christianity as taught to Afrikan slaves remains embedded in the church theology of the contemporary Black Church.
This theology and the ethics derived from it functions to sustain White domination, domination by other groups, and Black subordination, by means of inducing Blacks to believe in and follow what appears to be divine, objective, ‘race-neutral’ sayings, proverbs, ethical rules and moral preachments. However, any cursory examination of the mundane outcome of the belief in and practice of such preachments are startlingly different and almost completely opposite for Whites and Blacks.
For Whites Christianity empowers; justifies their sense of moral superiority; justifies and dictates their dominance of non-Whites; provides material enrichment; provides material comforts, reduces material suffering; is self-affirming; produces tangible and desirable results in this world as well as the world to come; promotes the worship of a god whose image bears their likeness; provides a rationale for their racial self-centerdness, selfishness, and exclusivity by confining the practice of brotherly love and equality, self-sacrifice, and the like within the borders of the White race.
For Blacks, Christianity disempowers; induces a sense of moral inferiority; preaches submission, subordination and obedience; is associated with material deprivation; sanctifies material discomfort and suffering; is self-negating, self-effacing; produces relatively few tangible and desirable results in this world while emphasizing ‘pie-in-the-sky’ other-worldly rewards; promotes the worship of a god that wears a non-Afrikan face and bears the facial image of their White dominators and enemies )leading them to consciously worship White people, to think of them as more god-like than themselves, to associate whiteness of skin with all that is good and blackness of skin with all that is bad); provides a rationale for racial self-denial, selflessness, inclusiveness, etc. by expanding the practice of brotherly love and equality, self-sacrifice, and the like to all beyond the borders of the Afrikan race.
Christian theology and ethics, especially in the form of good/evil, good/bad precepts and behavior, constitutes the principal form of White (and other groups) domination of Blacks. The acceptance by Afrikans of White valuations and definitions of good versus evil, good and bad as objective, divinely inspired, universal and race-neutral, allows them to be duped and dominated by Whites simply through the media of ideas. The uncritical acceptance of such non-Afrikan religious precepts as universal, as applying with equal effect across all groups and individuals, without regard to sociohistorical context or situation; without asking, ‘Good for what?’, ‘Good for whom?’, ‘Evil for whom?’ ‘Good from whose perspective?’ ‘Evil from whose perspective?’, can become the vehicle for dominance by the group whose good/bad, good/evil precepts are accepted and thus the vehicle for subordination by the group which accepts them.’ [MORE]
Feds Notice Minneapolis Cops Surveil and Subject Blacks to Violence in City Run by Liberals [consent decrees Can’t Reform Authority, the "Power" to Use Force Offensively, Initiate Unprovoked Violence]
/CONSENT DECREES won’t remedy the source of the problem, which is authority; the implied right to rule over people. It is the BELIEF that some people [AUTHORITIES] have the moral right to forcibly control others [CITIZENS], and that, consequently, those CITIZENS have the moral obligation to obey.’ [MORE] HERE, we are discussing THE AUTHORITIES KNOWN AS police officers, WHO As representatives of authority, HAVE SOMEHOW BEEN empowered to use force offensively against citizens.
CONTRARY TO LOTFY LEGAL PRONOUNCEMENTS AND PRETENSES OF CIVILITY, AUTHORITY is EVIL and there is no legitimate or rational way to account for belief in its existence.
All force USED offensively is EXCESSIVE AND immoral. Acts that would be considered unjust or morally unacceptable when performed by people are just as unjust or morally unacceptable when performed by government agents. Putting your hands on another human being, not in self-defense but offensively, without their consent and ‘manipulating their body in disregard of their volition is evil’, whether its done by citizens or representatives of “authority” wearing blue costumes. LAWS CANNOT ALTER MORALITY. Larken Rose explains, “authority is permission to commit evil – to do things that would be recognized as immoral and unjustified if anyone else did them.” Subconsciously we know THAT rulING over others BY FORCE is barbaric.
THERE IS NO RATIONAL BASIS FOR THE BELIEF IN AUTHORITY. All governmental power PURPORTEDLY IS DERIVED SOLELY from the people. however, the government has somehow granted itself the power to do things that no individual citizen could ever do. While citizens have the inalienable right to act in self-defense or come to the defense of others, citizens have no right to initiate unprovoked acts of violence on other people and HAVE no right to forcibly control other people. As such, it is impossible for citizens to delegate the power to forcibly control others to the government - because citizens cannot possibly delegate POWERS TO THE GOVERNMENT that they don’t have. Other explanations for authority SUCH AS THE “SOCIAL CONTRACT” THEORY have been thoroughly debunked. [MORE] Although we assume there is some valid explanation for why the government should be entitled to engage in behavior that would be deemed to violate individual rights if performed by anyone other than the government, there is none.

From [HERE] The Minneapolis Police Department routinely used excessive force and discriminated against Black and Native American people in the years before one of its officers killed George Floyd, federal authorities said Friday.
In an 89-page report that followed a more than two-year federal civil rights investigation, the Justice Department excoriated the Minneapolis police force as an agency that put officers and local residents at unnecessary risk, failed to act upon repeated warnings about biased behavior and countenanced the “systemic problems” that gave way to Floyd’s death in 2020.
Investigators concluded that they “have reasonable cause to believe that” the city of Minneapolis and its police department “engage in a pattern or practice of conduct that violates the Constitution and federal law.”
These issues, the report said, encompassed things as significant as how police use force and which people are subject to the most intensive law enforcement scrutiny.
The report is rife with examples of police using improper force, even in cases when no force was necessary, according to investigators.
Authorities examined police shootings between January 2016 and August 2022, finding 19 such incidents and saying that while “this number is relatively small,” a significant share were unconstitutional. “At times, officers shot at people without first determining whether there was an immediate threat of harm to the officers or others,” the report said.
The federal probe also concluded that officers “frequently used neck restraints without warning.”
After Chauvin was recorded kneeling on Floyd’s neck, the Minneapolis police banned neck restraints and chokeholds. But officers continued to employ the tactic after it was banned, investigators said.
Again and again, police are depicted in the report lashing out with unneeded force, including yanking a handcuffed man to the ground, hitting his head on the pavement. Officers were “quick to use force on unarmed people, even without reasonable suspicion that they are involved in a crime or are a threat,” the report said. Investigators also said they found numerous examples of police giving someone an order, and then almost immediately using force on them.
Officers who use force are subjected to minimal reviews, with supervisors often failing to assess whether the force was reasonable at all and failing to consider evidence, the report said.
Investigators concluded that the Minneapolis police disproportionately stopped and searched Black and Native American people, and used force more frequently during stops of these people than they do during stops of White people under similar circumstances.
Between May 25, 2020, and Aug. 9, 2022, the report said, police searched Black residents 22 percent more often than White people in stops under similar circumstances. Native Americans were searched 23 percent more often than White people.
The Minneapolis police force “has long been on notice about racial disparities and officers’ failure to document data on race during stops,” which they are required to do, the report said.
But the data being documented suddenly began to dry up after Floyd’s death in 2020, the report said, as officers in many cases did not report racial data on stops and searches over the next two years, investigators said.
A lack of accountability is presented in the report as a pervasive problem for the Minneapolis police, and one that directly contributes to the other issues highlighted in the report, the Justice Department said. The Minneapolis police “accountability system is fundamentally flawed,” the report said, calling it “an opaque maze.”
Ben Crump, an attorney for the Floyd family, and other attorneys pointed to the breadth of the report’s allegations of wrongdoing, including the unjustified uses of force and discrimination.
“Each alone is deeply disturbing, and the cumulative effect of these unconstitutional patterns and practices on the community and individual lives is devastating,” the attorneys said in a statement.
Investigators said they reviewed thousands of documents, body-camera videos and incident reports; analyzed data on uses of force, stops and calls for service; accompanied officers on more than 50 ride-alongs; and interviewed residents, police officers, city employees and local leaders, among many others.
The Justice Department’s findings echoed repeated claims made by residents over the years about the Minneapolis police, and they also are similar in many ways to a state investigation that concluded last year that the department was riddled with unnecessarily aggressive behavior and lacking oversight.
The report’s release came a little more than three years after Floyd, a Black man, was filmed gasping for air while held down by Derek Chauvin, a White police officer in Minneapolis, and two other cops on Memorial Day in 2020. Floyd’s death helped ignite nationwide protests over policing and social and racial injustice, and Chauvin was convicted of murder the following year.
The Justice Department launched its civil rights investigation immediately after he was convicted. Appearing Friday at a federal courthouse in Minneapolis, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced the investigation’s results and depicted Floyd’s death not as an isolated episode, but instead a tragedy enabled by the deep-rooted issues within the Minneapolis police.
Garland said the Justice Department, the city of Minneapolis and the Minneapolis police had agreed in principle to negotiate toward a federal consent decree — a court-approved reform order that can be used to ensure changes within a local law enforcement agency.
The Justice Department released a copy of the signed agreement, which was dated Thursday, and said an independent third-party monitor will be appointed to help assess whether the consent decree’s goals are being achieved.
