Big Water, Big Racism, For Big Dummies

"It is an Island. It's surrounded by Water, BIG Water, Ocean Water" ...

This is the man people in our nation Love ... he said this; while making excuses for why his aid to Puerto Rico was slow; They believe this man is 'better' than Obama was at this Presidenting stuff.

This is the price we pay, when so many folks, place 'race' above 'character' ....

Let's face it; Trump 'fans' ... his 'base' ... they don't like this guy because he's actually 'better'. They like that white man is at the helm. A white man, who's unafraid to have an All white cabinet, and white people 'only' in positions of power. Ben Carson doesn't even count, as he's clearly just a white man dipped in chocolate....

When MLK day comes around, let's stop patting ourselves on the back so quickly, and so loudly; let's stop acting like we've 'achieved' the dream; got a long way to go to get to that point he saw at the 'mountain top' ...

America is dumber as a nation today, than we were the first time around. We have tried this already, and it does not work. Why are we here again .... ?

Because people hated the idea of a black man running the nation So much: It goes Deeper.

People really 'see themselves' as their race; this racial identity matters to people. Folks will deny it, say they don't see color and all sorts of flat out foolery. These falsehoods become clear when we look at their instagram, their facebook, to find out 'who' they hang out with. Lots of these colorblind people sure do only hang out with people that look just like they do.

America isn't really all that integrated, still ....

Cue, the "Nation of Cowards" speech by former A.G. Eric Holder

Oh this really pisses them off.

How dare a black man, stand there, and say these true things about America. All of it true though, so true. We're very much a nation divided, and still afraid to tackle issues of race. Instead of making our nation great, by getting better in our human relations, we are reverting backwards. Alt-Right groups, that preach to the 'value of whiteness' have come out of the shadows of the internet, and now march on City Streets. They gather in public, shouting their hate speech for anyone who is not, white.

Oh the hate and racism underneath it all truly bubbled over the surface of the pot during the Obama administration. Van Jones, before he got bought off to change his positions around, called it early, this is a whitelash.

This Big Water, Big Racism, is for Big Dummies ... that's what I'm getting at ...

The last few times we've attempted this way of living, resulted in far too many people dying. Technology, and such, has only improved since the last time. I feel like a 'come the fuck on people!' ... won't even do the trick at this point in the game. Not only are we a Nation of Cowards; we are a Nation of Big Dummies ...

• here's to the hope we can 'do' better
