That's a bit racist

    The year 2020 has brought the terms racist and racism to the forefront of our minds.  Due to the exploitation of our police officers by the media we have seen violent riots all in the name of equal justice.  What exactly is equal justice?  Equal justice is defined as "The fair, equal and impartial treatment of all people."  What did the police officers do in the videos that sparked these riots that could be seen as unfair or unequal treatment?  From a vast majority of the videos they were called due to a situation that was violent and while trying to get the suspects in custody or disarm them they were attacked and responded with deadly force.  The problem with all of the videos which incited the violence is the suspect was African American.  We never saw video released of suspects of any other ethnic group, why is that?  My answer is simple, the people releasing these videos has an agenda that involves dividing us by race to further some sort of political agenda.  We regularly see the media and other "advocates" call the President racist and demand he condemn white supremacists, the KKK, and other racists groups.  On multiple occasions he has done just that and also passed an executive order calling the domestic terrorists, yet the very next day they are saying he never has done such things and are demanding he do it again.  I think he could get up every morning and hold a press conference denouncing these groups and these people would still not be content.  

    There have been actual instances of racism in our country this year but many do not even acknowledge these quotes and actions as racist.  Joe Biden has on more than one occasion said things that are downright racist.  Take for instance his appearance on  The Breakfast Club with Charlamagne Tha God.  In this interview he stated "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black."  In other words if you are Black and do not vote for Biden then you are not the actual race you are.  Why is this racist?  Well it is simple, he thinks all black people should think alike and vote for Democrats.  He has also called them a monolith with little or no diversity.  Earlier this year he spoke at the funeral for one of the KKK's founding members.  In the Democratic primary Kamala Harris called him a racist and accused him of using black people to get votes.  She pointed out how his crime bill was slanted very unfairly to lock up more young black men than anyone else.  In 1977 he said integrating schools with bussing would have his children "growing up in a jungle, the jungle being a racial jungle with tensions having built so high that it is going to explode at some point." So why can he get away with statements that are obviously racist?  We have been told all along that President Trump is racist, xenophobic, and sexist but the facts don't back such allegations.  He did have some "locker room" talk that was brought out during the 2016 election and he was immediately labeled a sexist.  He never admitted to sexual assault but that is what he was labeled.  There were women that came out with accusations and ultimately when he won the election they just went away.  The double standard on sexism and racism is amazing.

    The last thing I wanted to touch on was this idea that racism is always directed at ethnic minorities from white people.  The truth is racism comes from all ethnicities and is toward all ethnicities.  Racism being a "white" problem places blame unfairly onto one group of people.  This is pushed along by schools and universities teaching "white privilege" and racial inequality.  Black people are being told the system is racist and they are starting from a position where they will have to work harder to get ahead than their white counterparts.  Imagine being told from the time you were young that no matter how hard you work you can never achieve success.  Imagine criminals gunned down by cops are heralded as heroes in their community and the cops are the villains.  Imagine seeing the only successful people that look like you gained success from illegal activities like drug dealing.  Imagine the "leaders" of your race that call themselves Reverend or pastors are some of the people who use your race to gain wealth and could care less if the less privileged in your community gain prosperity or not.  There is racism within the black community and it comes from other black people.  black citizens are made to feel like a constant victim of the system, cops, education, white people, or anything else that lines the pockets of those "leaders."  

    The solution to this problem will not come from white people, it will come from within every races own community.  Pulling another race back to advance your race is racism.  Putting laws and policies in place which place any race at a disadvantage to elevate another is racist.  Truth be told every single American can succeed based on their own desire to succeed.  Yes some people will encounter more challenges than others but only by overcoming those challenges can they succeed.  Don't wait for anyone else to elevate you as the people with the means to help you are the very same ones who are using their influence to gain more for themselves.  If you are making minimum wage and want to make more money figure out the path to get what you want and make it happen!  Don't demand the employers be forced to raise wages which will ultimately cause loss of hours or jobs, get better skills or education and get a better job!  In the end I am trying to say racism is not a white disease and that's a bit racist I guess.
