A NATION UNRAVELS - TRUMP OCCUPIES PORTLAND - CAN HE OCCUPY AMERICA TO STAY IN THE WHITE HOUSE AND AVOID PRISON?


Unidentified Federal Agents Are Detaining Protesters in Portland

In scenes that bring to mind dictatorial regimes around the world, unidentified federal agents are snatching protesters off the streets of Portland, Oregon, and throwing them into the back of rented minivans. Videos of some of the encounters have gone viral this week, and on Thursday, Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) confirmed the story, reporting that law enforcement has been detaining demonstrators in this fashion at least since July 14.


“It’s like stop and frisk meets Guantanamo Bay,” Oregon attorney Juan Chavez told OPB.
The officers are with the U.S. Marshals Service and Department of Homeland Security. They were sent to Portland last week as part of the federal government’s attempt to crack down on protests and protect federal buildings from graffiti. Like many cities, Portland has been the site of regular protests following the police killing of George Floyd in May. Portland “was totally out of control,” Trump said at a news conference this week. He praised federal agents for restoring order.
Federal officials have charged at least 13 people with crimes, OPB reports. Others, including Mark Pettibone, have been arrested and released. A regular participant in the Portland protests, Pettibone told OPB he was snatched off a downtown street in a disorienting scene:
Blinded by his hat, in an unmarked minivan full of armed people dressed in camouflage and body armor who hadn’t identified themselves, Pettibone said he was driven around downtown before being unloaded inside a building. He wouldn’t learn until after his release that he had been inside the federal courthouse.
The arrests aren’t the only police actions bringing attention to Portland. Last weekend, U.S. Marshals shot 26-year-old Donavan LaBella with a nonlethal round, fracturing his skull.


“A peaceful protester in Portland was shot in the head by one of Donald Trump’s secret police,” Senator Ron Wyden tweeted Thursday. “Now Trump and Chad Wolf are weaponizing the DHS as their own occupying army to provoke violence on the streets of my hometown because they think it plays well with right-wing media.”
Wolf, the acting head of the Department of Homeland Security, was in Portland on Thursday to meet with federal law enforcement and condemn protesters, whom he called “lawless anarchists.”
“Portland has been under siege for 47 straight days by a violent mob while local political leaders refuse to restore order to protect their city,” he wrote in a letter on Thursday. On Friday, Wolf tweeted, “Our men and women in uniform are patriots. We will never surrender to violent extremists on my watch.” In another tweet, he showed images of the carnage he saw in Portland. It was all graffiti.


While Wolf was in Oregon, many state and local leaders called for him to take the federal law enforcement back to Washington with him. “We do not need or want their help,” Mayor Ted Wheeler said. “The best thing they can do is stay inside their building, or leave Portland altogether.”
Governor Kate Brown said in a statement: “This political theater from President Trump has nothing to do with public safety. The President is failing to lead this nation. Now he is deploying federal officers to patrol the streets of Portland in a blatant abuse of power by the federal government.”

A Las Vegas man has been arrested after police said he 'goaded' a homeless man into performing a fatal backflip for $6

mmark@businessinsider.com (Michelle Mark)







The Las Vegas police arrested a 28-year-old man who they say livestreamed himself goading a homeless man into doing a backflip for $6.
The Las Vegas police arrested a 28-year-old man who they say livestreamed himself goading a homeless man into doing a backflip for $6.

  • A homeless man died of a spinal injury 10 days after he was goaded into doing a backflip for $6, the Las Vegas police said.
  • The police arrested a 28-year-old man who they say had livestreamed the entire incident and could be heard telling viewers he offered the man cash for the stunt.
  • Keonte Jones was booked into a local jail on Tuesday on a felony charge of willfully disregarding a person's safety, according to the police.
  • The family of the 55-year-old homeless man, Larry Coner, launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for his funeral.
The police arrested a Las Vegas man accused of livestreaming himself egging on a homeless man to perform a backflip in exchange for $6.
The man sustained a spinal injury from the flip and died in a hospital 10 days later, authorities said.
Keonte Jones, 28, was booked into the Clark County Detention Center on Tuesday on a felony charge of willfully disregarding a person's safety.
The deadly encounter began June 20 when the homeless man, 55-year-old Larry Coner, approached Jones to ask for money, according to a statement from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Jones then offered Coner the money in exchange for a backflip, the statement said.
A disturbing Facebook video linked to by the police department shows Coner cartwheeling several times before attempting a back handspring and landing directly on his neck.
Throughout Coner's attempt, and in the minutes afterward, a man — identified as Jones — could be heard laughing raucously. He said multiple times that he had offered Coner $6 for the stunt.
The person filming approached and brandished the cash at Coner, who lay on the ground, apparently unconscious.
"He landed on his head. I told him $6," the man said, still roaring with laughter, while Coner remained motionless.
"As the incident went live on Facebook, Jones continued laughing and filming Coner for almost 10 minutes while telling onlookers not to call medical," the police said. "Medical responded and Coner was transported to [University Medical Center] with a serious spinal injury. On June 30, 2020, Coner died as a result of his spinal injury."
The police said they began investigating the incident after a member of Coner's family contacted them. Coner's sister has also launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for Coner's funeral.
In the page description, Coner's sister said Coner had a mental illness that had gotten progressively worse since his mother died in 2018. She added that he had been walking home from the hospital, "minding his own business," when the deadly encounter happened.
"Larry's mental illness worsened to a point he didn't know when people meant him harm," she wrote.



Suspects Arrested in Shooting Death of Bronx Father Walking with Daughter

2:12

Three suspects were arrested Thursday in connection with the July 5 shooting death of a father crossing a street with his daughter in the Bronx.
“Davon Delks, 21, of the Bronx; Laquan Heyward, 25, of Staten Island; and Devon Vines of the Bronx face murder charges for the death of Anthony Robinson, 28, said police. All three suspects were reportedly gang members,” according to Fox 5.
Police were investigating if the shooting was in retaliation of another shooting the night before, the report noted.
Surveillance footage of the incident showed Robinson walking with his six-year-old daughter, according to Breitbart News.
The New York Police Department’s (NYPD) chief of detectives, Rodney Harrison, shared the video footage on July 6:
WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE


As Robinson and his child crossed the street, a car pulled up alongside them and a person’s arm extended out the passenger side window, holding a gun.
Moments later, Robinson collapsed on the ground as the child and another bystander were seen running away from the area.
Harrison said the suspects were apprehended Thursday “by the NYPD’s Bronx Violent Felony Squad with help from the Bronx Warrants Squad, the 44th Precinct, the Criminal Enterprise Investigations Section, and the Technical Assistance Response Unit.”
The victim’s girlfriend, Stephanie Quinonez, was elated when she heard about the arrests, according to the New York Daily News.
“I’m so happy!! I’m crying happy tears,” she told a Daily News reporter, adding, “Thank you so much!”
Thirty-five people were shot last weekend in New York City, Breitbart News reported Tuesday.
“The single fatality among the 35 victims was a one-year-old boy, shot while in a stroller Sunday night,” the article read, adding that the child was at a barbecue near Raymond Bush Playground when the incident occurred.
“Three others were shot as well, and were transported to a hospital for treatment,” the report concluded.

Nick Cannon's anti-white rant


On Tuesday, July 14, a video of Nick Cannon making anti-white comments went viral on the internet.  By Tuesday evening, ViacomCBS, the parent company of Cannon's comedy improv show Wild 'n Outterminated its relationship with Cannon and ended its production of his show.
The reason for the termination that ViacomCBS put forward was that the video, which Cannon aired on YouTube and on a podcast over the weekend, "promoted hateful speech and spread anti-Semitic conspiracy theories."
There was no mention by ViacomCBS about his hateful rant that described whites as "evil," "less," "deficient," "lack[ing] compassion," "closer to animals," and "true savages."
The following day, left-leaning media outlets National Public Radio and the New York Times both published stories about Nick Cannon's termination with hardly a mention of the anti-white comments that Cannon never disavowed (although he did make an apology about his anti-Semitic rant).
On the same day, rapper and record executive P. Diddy posted his support of Nick Cannon on Twitter and invited him to join his "Truly Black Owned" RevoltTV, adding, "We are for our own people first."
In the video, Cannon claims that white people fear their own genocide and therefore lack compassion:
When you have a person that has the lack of pigment, the lack of melanin, that they know that they will be annihilated. So therefore, however they got the power, they have the lack of compassion. Melanin comes with compassion; melanin comes with soul. We call it soul. Soul brothers and sisters. That's the melanin that connects us. So, the people that don't have it, and I'm going to say this carefully, are a little less.
Cannon's theory is that exposure to the sun allowed blacks to develop into humans, while whites became deficient because of their lack of sun.  In the video, he describes whites as "evil" and as "robbing, stealing, raping, and killing" because of their deficiency:
When they didn't have the power of the sun, the sun then started to deteriorate them, so then they're acting out of fear, they're acting out of low self-esteem, they're acting out of deficiency. So, therefore, the only way that they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, rape, kill ... in order to survive.
As stated earlier, Cannon has yet to disavow the incitement to hatred evident in his rant.  Instead, he contends that ViacomCBS has, you guessed it, "robbed, stolen, raped, killed."  In a lengthy Facebook post published on July 15, Cannon stated that ownership of his Wild 'n Out program has been "swindled away from [him]" and that "Viacom has been mistreating and robbing black people for years."
This tantrum comes from a man who has been making $70,000 per episode on a show that just completed its sixteenth season and has more than 205 episodes.
As of January 31, 2020, Cannon's car collection is reputed to include two Mercedes Benzes, two Ferraris, one Maserati Quattroponte, one Range Rover, one Rolls-Royce, one Cadillac Escalade, a 1964 Chevrolet Impala, and one Lamborghini Murcielago.
In the season nine finale of America's Got Talent, he wore a $2-million set of diamond-embroidered loafers with 14,000 full-cut diamonds set in white gold.
I don't blame ViacomCBS for terminating its relationship with this hateful, Farrakhan-spewing black supremacist, but I do wish the company, along with the New York Times and National Public Radio, would have the courage to condemn Cannon's anti-white rhetoric as well as his anti-Semitism.


This evidence is pretty compelling in suggesting that the BLM movement presents itself as a Marxist philosophy pushing organization with characteristics of a terrorist entity.  This seems like such a strange way to strengthen race relations and advocate for the human and legal rights of U.S. citizens.




ViacomCBS Severs Ties with Nick Cannon After Antisemitic Remarks

ViacomCBS severed ties with rapper and TV personality Nick Cannon on Tuesday after he refused to apologize for antisemitic remarks the Masked Singer host made last month.
During a June episode of his Cannon’s Class podcast, Cannon told former Public Enemy member Richard “Professor Griff” Griffin that “the Semitic people are Black people.”
“You can’t be anti-Semitic when we are the Semitic people,” Nick Cannon claimed. “When we are the same people they want to be. That’s our birthright,” he then said, before he added that African-Americans are the “true Hebrews.”
Watch below: 


Cannon also alleged that “African Americans and the people of the Jewish community have partnered to create some of the best, most revolutionary work we know today.”
“While we support ongoing education and dialogue in the fight against bigotry, we are deeply troubled that Nick has failed to acknowledge or apologize for perpetuating anti-Semitism, and we are terminating our relationship with him,” ViacomCBS said in a statement.
Cannon was named chairman of Nickelodeon’s TeenNick cable channel at 26-years-old.
Cannon also made derogatory statements about Caucasians and praised the notorious antisemite and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
“The people that don’t have [melanin] are a little less,” Cannon said, adding that “when they were sent to the mountains of Caucasus … The sun then started to deteriorate them so then, they’re acting out of fear, they’re acting out of low self-esteem, they’re acting out of a deficiency.”
“So, therefore, the only way that they can act is evil. They have to rob, steal, rape, kill in order to survive. So then, these people that didn’t have what we have — and when I say we, I speak of the melanated people — they had to be savages … They’re acting as animals so they’re the ones that are actually closer to animals. They’re the ones that are actually the true savages,” Cannon added.
The MTV’s Wild ‘n Out host’s comments sparked a massive backlash, prompting him to address his matter in a social media post.
“Anyone who knows me knows that I have no hate in my heart nor malice intentions,” Cannon wrote on Facebook. “I do not condone hate speech nor the spread of hateful rhetoric. We are living in a time when it is more important than ever to promote unity and understanding.”
Yet, Cannon refused to apologize: “To me apologies are empty … What we need is healing. What we need is discussion. Correct me. I don’t tell my children to say, ‘I’m sorry.’ I want them to understand where they need to be corrected. And then that’s how we grow.”





Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: Indifference to Anti-Semitism in Sports, Hollywood Is a Sign of ‘The Coming Apatholypse’

The apathy displayed in the sports and entertainment worlds when one of their own publicly voices anti-Semitism is begetting an “apathy to all forms of social justice” – an “Apatholypse,” NBA Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar warns.
It’s not just the offensive remarks about Jews by some celebrities that’s troubling, it’s also the lack of outrage over the blatant anti-Semitic comments, Abdul-Jabbar writes in a commentary published Wednesday by The Hollywood Reporter in which he predicts the coming “Apatholypse”:
“Recent incidents of anti-Semitic tweets and posts from sports and entertainment celebrities are a very troubling omen for the future of the Black Lives Matter movement, but so too is the shocking lack of massive indignation. Given the New Woke-fulness in Hollywood and the sports world, we expected more passionate public outrage. What we got was a shrug of meh-rage.
“When reading the dark squishy entrails of popular culture, meh-rage in the face of sustained prejudice is an indisputable sign of the coming Apatholypse: apathy to all forms of social justice. After all, if it’s OK to discriminate against one group of people by hauling out cultural stereotypes without much pushback, it must be OK to do the same to others. Illogic begets illogic.”
Abul-Jabbar calls it “disheartening” to see the very people who have been “violently marginalized” by groups like the Nazis and the KKK use “the same scapegoat logic” against others – unknowingly perpetuating the very type of racism they’ve been victimized by:
“These famous, outspoken people share the same scapegoat logic as all oppressive groups from Nazis to the KKK: all our troubles are because of bad-apple groups that worship wrong, have the wrong complexion, come from the wrong country, are the wrong gender or love the wrong gender. It’s so disheartening to see people from groups that have been violently marginalized do the same thing to others without realizing that perpetuating this kind of bad logic is what perpetuates racism.”
Anti-Semitism in sports has become so rampant that nationally-syndicated radio host Mark Levin said Tuesday that he will "never" again watch either NBA or NFL games.
Read Abdul-Jabbar’s full commentary in The Hollywood Reporter.

This evidence is pretty compelling in suggesting that the BLM movement presents itself as a Marxist philosophy pushing organization with characteristics of a terrorist entity. 


What the Black Lives Matter movement really is

Based on the research I've conducted, the Black Lives Matter (BLM) organization/movement is likely not what most people think it is.  Here are a few verified ideas to consider.
One may think of the BLM movement as a "grassroots" movement.  According to the BLM website, BLM is a "global organization active in US, UK, and Canada."  The website, Influence Watch, points out that George Soros, a Hungarian-born liberal with a net worth of $25.2 billion, is a major contributor to BLM, having donated "at least $33 million."  The same website states that since 2013, groups associated with the BLM movement have taken in $133 million.
On another point, it appears that BLM is rooted in Marxist philosophy.  From the New York Post (06/25/20), Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors describes herself and her co-organizer of BLM as "a trained Marxist."  The article goes on to say Cullors was a protégé of Eric Mann and that she "spent years" with him "absorbing the Marxist-Leninist ideology that shaped her worldview."
Consider what this might mean for the USA if BLM pushes its agenda and platform.  According to Investopedia, Marxism argues for a worker revolution to overturn capitalism in favor of communism.  Furthermore, Marxism is against the nuclear family in that it teaches a hierarchical system and keeps money within groups (families), opposed to distributed wealth.  The website ReviseSociology explains, "Marxists argue that the nuclear family performs ideological functions for Capitalism — the family acts as a unit of consumption and teaches passive acceptance of hierarchy.  It is also the institution through which the wealthy pass down their private property to their children, thus reproducing class inequality."  Furthermore, the website Brainscape points out, "[Marxists] dispute the idea that the way families are organized benefits everyone.  The website goes on to say, "[R]ather [Marxism] argue[s] that the family like many other institutions in capitalist societies, serves to maintain the power of those with wealth and preserve the existing economic system."
BLM is anti–nuclear family.   The following quote was taken directly from the BLM website: "We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and 'villages' that collectively care for one another[.]"  More Marxist philosophy from the BLM Platform itself: BLM argues for a reformed tax code "at the local, state, and federal level to ensure a radical and substantial redistribution of wealth."
The U.S. Code of Federal Regulations defines terrorism as "the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives" (28 C.F.R. Section 0.85).  The New York Post (06/25/20) reported that Hawk Newsome, president of Greater New York Black Lives Matter (BLM website denies this title), stated, "If this country doesn't give us what we want, then we will burn down this system and replace it.  All right?  And I could be speaking figuratively.  I could be speaking literally.  It's a matter of interpretation."  Also stated by Newsome, "I just want black liberation, and black sovereignty.  By any means necessary."
This evidence is pretty compelling in suggesting that the BLM movement presents itself as a Marxist philosophy pushing organization with characteristics of a terrorist entity.  This seems like such a strange way to strengthen race relations and advocate for the human and legal rights of U.S. citizens.

Did saying 'all lives matter' to a group of blacks get a mother of a young child shot and killed?


The demonization of the commonsense expression "all lives matter" has reached the point of lethal violence against those who utter it, if an eyewitness account of a murder in Indianapolis is true.  This deeply distressing story of an incident on Independence Day weekend had received zero coverage in the mainstream media until Fox News picked it up a few hours ago.  Bradford Betz writes for Fox:
An Indiana woman was fatally shot earlier this month following an alleged argument between her family and a group of Black Lives Matter supporters, her family says.
The woman, 24-year-old Jessica Doty Whitaker, was walking along Indianapolis Canal Walk with her fiancé, Jose Ramirez, and two other people around 3 a.m. on July 5 when someone in their group used a racial slur, Fox 59 reported.
A group of nearby strangers overheard the comment and confronted Whitaker's group, according to the station.
Ramirez alleged that the group shouted "Black Lives Matter," to which either Whitaker or someone else in their group reportedly responded with, "All Lives Matter."
A brief argument ensued until both sides separated after realizing the other was armed, Fox 59 reported. Ramirez claimed that both sides managed to resolve the argument before separating.
But minutes later, someone reportedly opened fire from a nearby bridge, striking Whitaker, before running away, the station said.
"It was squashed, and they went up the hill and left we thought, but they were sitting on St. Clair waiting for us to come under the bridge and that's when she got shot," Ramirez said.
Ramirez admitted to returning fire but did not hit anyone. He told Fox 59 that he has had to explain what happened to Whitaker's 3-year-old son.

Early accounts of the incident in local Indianapolis media did not mention the expression "all lives matter" as a trigger, but then Cassandra Fairbanks of Gateway Pundit reported on Saturday:
Her father, Robert Doty, told the Gateway Pundit that the BLM supporters had walked by her and her fiance and said "Black Lives Matter," to which Jessica responded that "All Lives Matter"….
The U.S. conservative blogosphere started to pick up on the story, followed by the U.K. Sun and then the Daily Mail, and now Fox News.  The story has already gained enough traction that a GoFundMe account established for Jessica's family has already raised more than five times the goal of $10,000, with the story now breaking wider on a Monday morning.
If anything good can be salvaged from this awful killing, it would be a pushback against the demonization of "all lives matter."  Claims that those three words are racist are self-evidently ridiculous.  If it is untrue that all lives matter because "black lives matter" is trendy and being pushed heavily, then some lives logically do not matter.  Because of race.  That position is abhorrent.  And it may have led to murder.


How BLM supports cop killers


Black Lives Matter has just learned the hard way that police bodycams are there not just to protect civilians and suspects from bad cops, they are there to protect good cops from suspects and their supporters, including BLM, who falsely accuse cops of excessive use of force. Hakim Littleton was recently shot dead an instant before he could make a "pig" "oink his last," and BLM is apparently sorry that the cop is not dead in Hakim's place. The video on this Detroit News page shows clearly that Littleton pulled a handgun from his left pocket, aimed at a cop's head, and fired the weapon at close range. Littleton was fortunately a bad shot or we would now have "end of watch" for another police officer.
A prosecutor would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the cop's use of deadly force was unlawful to convict him of murder or manslaughter. The bodycam video proves instead that the shooting was justified, and also that the police department should investigate further to determine whether the shooter should be commended for saving another officer's life. This did not stop numerous protesters, and the Detroit News picture gallery shows many in BLM attire, from chanting "Justice for Hakim Littleton! Fire and jail the killer cop!" Another video on the Detroit News page shows a mob yelling "Black Lives Matter" along with "No justice, no peace" while throwing bottles and bricks at the police. One demonstrator yells the N word, apparently at a black law enforcement officer, while another menaces a reporter. The Black Lives Matter movement comes in loud and clear; Hakim Littleton had the right to kill an officer and the "pig" and his partner did not even have the right of self-defense as prescribed by Michigan state law and common sense.
The Blaze meanwhile reported that two police officers, whose Hispanic lives clearly do not matter to Black Lives Matter, were ambushed and murdered on July 11. The daughter of one of the fallen officers posted a tribute to her father which the BLM community greeted with remarks like "Well at least your pops is a good cop now, 6 feet in the dirt where he cant hurt nobody" and"Rip to ur daddy!!! But one cop down many more to go," along with the all-time favorite ACAB (All Cops Are Bastards).
We Deserve Better than BLM and We Can Do Better
There can be zero tolerance in a civilized society for a movement that says it is okay to aim a firearm at a police officer's head and the officer (or his partner) does not have the basic human right of self-defense. It is past time to demand that the Democratic Party, corporate enablers like Starbucks, and universities repudiate their support for this repugnant movement. The best way to send BLM the way of those Confederate statues is to offer the country something a lot better, and I have done my best with a computer artwork program. Please feel free to copy and distribute or improve on my admittedly amateur work.

Identity Politics, Oppression and Aversion to the White Man

Victimhood is the fuel for the Progressive, Socialist revolution.
 
Christine Douglass-Williams

Editors’ note: Identity politics has become a hallmark of Progressive ideology and has even leaked into the domain of conservatism. Central to identity politics is the notion of racial victimhood. For that to exist, there must be an oppressor, and that oppressor is collectively the white race, particularly white men. Thus, according to Progressive ideology, all lives do not matter equally; oppressed lives matter more. That is why the Left doesn’t care that Islamic supremacists still enslave black Africans or that a genocide against Christians is taking place in Africa and the Middle East. The paradigm that matters is oppressor versus oppressed, white versus non-white, and to disagree is to provoke the wrath of the woke mob.
In December 2017, Associate Editor for FrontPage Magazine Christine Douglass-Williams was fired as a Governor in Council Appointee by the Liberal government of Canada for criticizing Islam in her writings, mainly for the Freedom Center's own Jihad Watch. She was a Director on the Canadian Race Relations Foundation. Christine told her story in a monograph, published by the Center for Security Policy (CSP), titled: Fired by the Canadian Government for Criticizing Islam - Multicultural Canada: A Weak Link in the Battle Against Islamization. CSP founder Frank Gaffney wrote in the foreword:
Deeply concerned about the precipitous slide of our northern neighbor toward authoritarianism, especially with regard to free speech about the alarming influence of the jihadist Muslim Brotherhood and the broader global Islamic Movement on Canadians’ ability to enjoy the intrinsic human rights guaranteed to them in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Center for Security Policy asked Christine Douglass-Williams to document her experiences. This monograph, Fired by the Canadian Government for Criticizing Islam - Multicultural Canada: A Weak Link for Islamization, is her deeply personal account—but it is also something much more important. For while the arbitrary and discriminatory treatment of an individual Canadian citizen is a story worth telling in its own right, it is the broader implications for the future of free expression, free speech, and all other individual rights intrinsic to human beings everywhere, that makes Douglass-Williams’ work here so valuable.
Below is an excerpt from Christine Douglass-Williams’ book:

The Use of Victimology and Identity Politics by Civilizational Jihadists

The major thrust of this section is that Islamic supremacist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood have exploited victimology in their manipulation of multiculturalism, the anti-racism industry, diversity drives, Muslim populations, and the socialist-left leadership of many Western nations.
It is important to grasp that keeping people oppressed or otherwise “helping” them to embrace an identity of oppression enables totalitarian agendas. Some points to note about this modus operandi: i) education among “oppressed” groups is discouraged, as knowledge enlightens. Because knowledge is empowering, the oppressor’s power is diminished as the oppressed becomes enlightened. ii) oppressed groups can be manipulated to revolution in support of their corrupt leaders’ indoctrinated vision, ideology, and goals. iii) oppressed populations are relatively easy to control via leadership propaganda, due to their lack of education, their poverty, and dependence on their corrupt, but venerated leaders. Oppressed populations also permit a convenient enlarging of power distances between them and their leaders, so that their leaders lead, and they follow in obedient trust, whether or not those leaders are worthy of that trust.
In Western societies, two phenomena can be observed among the united socialist left, which benefits the victimology narrative: the first is a bigotry of low expectations, which instills the detrimental idea that brown people and black people are to be pitied forever because they have been nearly irreparably broken by white people. They are therefore deemed to be at least partially justified in any unlawful or harmful act they commit of which the same behavior is regarded as unacceptable in white society.
Embedded in this lenience of expectation toward brown and black people is a presumption of their inferiority, although it is never presented that way. For example, it is overlooked that Arabs hold black slaves, that women are sold into sex slavery by Muslims, that child brides are being sentenced to torturous marriages in Islam.
In this view, ethnic people do not need to abide by the same rules of human rights that white people are expected to observe because they are deemed to be inept, incapable of overcoming and of achieving. In this view, it is peculiar that it is generally unrecognized—or at least seldom articulated—that Islam has been engaging in such practices for 1400 years, because one need look no further than the white man.
It is always and must always be the white man’s fault to maintain the very status quo that its enablers pretend to reject: i.e., the bigotry of low expectations. The same victimhood mentality applies to blacks. Although there are significant differences in the history of non-Muslim blacks and Muslims, and reasons why these groups retain the status of oppressed groups, the reasons put forth by their socialist and Islamic supremacist leaders are: white privilege, white oppression, white supremacy.
All the while, when members of these groups victimize others, it is ignored. The victimization within these groups is also ignored. Secondly, this system allows for a guarantee that leaders of the publicly and privately funded “anti-racism” industry are well-off, while their client “victims” remain ghettoized.
Of course, there are those in the anti-racism industry who are sincere, who assist in the healing of past wounds, who aid in the practicalities of individual and group development, and who cultivate unity, true diversity, pluralism, and a strong national identity, but these represent a struggling minority within the industry.
The anti-racism industry as a whole has been hijacked by powerful, known lobbies such as Muslim Brotherhood offshoots and Black Lives Matter, in which those two lobbies have now managed to converge. The victimhood status quo also enables the expansion of a totalitarian agenda, in which big government is needed to “help” the people who are unable to help themselves.
In this scenario, selling “compassion” for the so-called oppressed is a marketing tool, whereby “experts” and government political leaders line their pockets as the self-proclaimed protectors of the wretchedly oppressed. In this scenario, there must be a villain, i.e., the group doing the oppressing and this group must be controlled, silenced or both. This villainous group constitutes the specter of the masters of oppression from the days of colonialism and slavery. Their victims regrettably remain in shackles, the cycle of the bigotry of low expectations continues, and the oppressed remain stunted. Western societies have evolved to become diverse and immigrant friendly.
This is not to say that racism, intolerance, xenophobia, and bigotry do not exist. They do, but they are not exclusive to white people but are also found among various groups of immigrants. Western constitutions permit all citizens to scrutinize and criticize government and various ideologies, to dialogue and debate openly, and to hold one another accountable. This makes for the continuance and preservation of democratic freedoms.
The hallmark of democracy is freedom of speech, while totalitarianism is marked by little to no freedom of expression.


Victimhood Indoctrination as a Home-Base for Revolution

Following its first black presidency, America is more polarized than ever. Rather than celebrate the advancement of blacks while continuing to progress toward unity and peaceful dialogue, along comes the Black Lives Matter Movement to foment violence against the front-line protectors of our societies.
Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan indoctrinates hatred against police into his followers using cases of blacks who have been killed by white policemen in shootouts. Farrakhan cultivates the belief that racism is so deeply entrenched in the white community that blacks are being unfairly hunted and murdered by white policemen.
The concept of fanning the flames of perpetual victimhood and revolution to acquire and sustain power is nothing new. Lenin, Stalin, and Mao well understood the need to keep pushing the us-versus-them mentality to distract populations from the truth and the harsh reality of day-to- day living. Their unscrupulousness paid off.
The one question the revolutionaries never want to address publicly is their end vision for Western society, because they don’t have one that they wish to reveal. That is the secret they guard and hide as they manipulate people and foment rage and violence among their own followers. Their end goal is not desirable, credible, or useful, but comes down to ultimately advancing their own lust for personal power.
Many among the white segment of the so-called “anti-racism” industry have aided these revolutionary movements, such as the Nation of Islam and Black Lives Matter, by justifying their rage, thereby exposing their own bigotry of low expectations and thus assisting to block the black community from escaping the chains of past slavery and victimhood.
Yet the biggest oppressors of the black community have become their own hate-filled leaders who exploit the community and cause members to keep their eyes focused on the chains of slavery as the community moves through generations of poverty, family breakdown, black-on-black crime and lack of education. They are rendered unable to escape a ghettoized existence.
The oppressed black community has now teamed up with Islamic supremacists and the two are working toward cultivation of goals to indoctrinate and incite revolution against the non-Muslim white society.
All the while, peace-loving black and brown people who know and proclaim what these indoctrinators are up to are firmly dismissed as “uncle Toms,” “sell-outs,” or are ignored. Those who oppose the condescending victimology narrative have also become targets of rage by the profiteers of the anti-racism business, by those indoctrinated by it, and even those who have personally embraced the victim identity.
Farrakhan has called for the murder of police and he did it in the name of “righteousness,” “human rights,” “justice,” and religion as he invoked the Quran. He openly declared:
"Death is sweeter than to continue to live and bury our children, while white folks give the killer hamburgers.

Death is sweeter, than watching us slaughter each other, to the joy of a 400-year-old enemy. Yes, death is sweeter.

The Quran teaches persecution is worse than slaughter. Then it says, ‘Retaliation is prescribed in matters of the slain.’ Retaliation is a prescription from God, to calm the breast of those whose children have been slain.
So if the federal government will not intercede in our affairs, then we must rise up and kill those who kill us. Stalk them and kill them and let them feel the pain of death that we are feeling."
There is no systemic stalking of blacks in America or Canada. Farrakhan is a stark example of the power that leaders possess to indoctrinate their followers and turn them against authorities of the state, who are there to maintain order and the rule of law. His blatant incitement should have led to his arrest, but the bigotry of low expectations gives him reprieve.

Hatred and incitement to violence and murder against Jews and whites that is deemed to be justified have deep implications for the direction of the West in general. Had a white person proclaimed the violence as Farrakhan did against blacks and Muslims, that person would be punished, and should be.

The Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi also appealed for white and black men to join hands in unity and so-called “equality” in the name of Allah:
"It is a state where the Arab and non-Arab, the white man and black man, the easterner and westerner are all brothers,” he said—an appeal aimed at broadening his support base beyond the Middle East.
"Muslims, rush to your state. Yes, it is your state. Rush, because Syria is not for the Syrians, and Iraq is not for the Iraqis. The earth is Allah’s."
There is a problem in the black community stemming from a history of abuse, and this history is now being further abused and exploited by many leaders such as Farrakhan within the black community.
Most of them will not brazenly issue an open call to violence and murder as Farrakhan has done, but their silence in the face of such calls, along with the size of Farrakhan’s following and influence is revealing.

Another example of the alliance between Black Lives Matter and Islam in the U.S.: in a speech delivered to the Annual Muslim American Society (MAS) and Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA) Convention in December 2015, Nihad Awad, the Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), urged Muslim Americans to take up the cause of Black Lives Matter. “Black Lives Matter is our matter,” he said; “Black Lives Matter is our campaign.”
There are clear links between Canada and the United States. Both countries share a continent, therefore, when one sneezes, the other risks catching the cold. To provide some examples: the Black Lives Movement first gained prominence in America before making its way into Canada. Also CAIR, which began in the States, found its way into Canada, as CAIR-CAN and subsequently the NCCM; but in 2018, when President Trump announced his temporary immigration ban on five majority-Muslim countries plus North Korea and Venezuela (Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen), Prime Minister Trudeau responded by tweeting out an open welcome to refugees.
