Blacks' toxic victimhood

Perhaps it's the crippling effect of the "Great Society Initiatives," or the systemic levels of cerebral toxification induced by a never-ending inculcation of victimization, or maybe it's undetected concentrations of amobarbitol in their drinking water – but whatever the primary causal factors, there remains a resistance against a truly inclusive cultural modernity that exists among far too many blacks. Said resistance refuses to be assuaged or put to death – and having a black man elected president has, if anything, only strengthened their resolve. The depth of this animus continues in ways that can only be described as irrational and intentionally irreconcilable.

It can be argued that the NAACP, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, et al., are the perverse Antediluvian equivalent of carnivorous fungi. But to that point, many blacks see only one color – and it isn't red, white, blue, nor is it green for capitalism. It is whatever color one ascribes to being separate and unequal based on a predisposition to view oneself as existing within a victim class.

I will be yet again excoriated for daring to say such things, but that makes my observations no less true. The damage done to the black psyche by those previously mentioned will not be undone or laid to rest simply because we now have a black president. If anything, it will serve to further aggrieve the victim-minded and augment their arguments.

(Column continues below)

   

Five days after Barack Obama strolled comfortably to victory with a six-point margin in his pocket, Louis Farrakhan declared that the victory would only stir up deep-seated racial animosity. He told a congregation that the country remained "divided and polarized." He said that the majority of John McCain supporters were "older Americans ... [residing] below the Mason-Dixon line where racial attitudes and traditions die hard."

Continuing, he told the throng, "We can change laws, but it's difficult to change attitudes." Truer words have seldom been spoken, even if from the lips a "minister" who can hardly be called "Mathias," i.e., a "gift from God."

Even though the actual reason sales of firearms soared in advance of Obama's election was the realistic fear that he would urge onerous restrictions on the purchase of same, Farrakhan seemed to be insinuating that the reasons were racially motivated. As proof, he stated that he "was sure that many of our [black] people have unfortunately lost their lives because of the absolute hatred that is manifested now that one of our own has risen to such a high office." Just who are these "many blacks" killed because Obama was elected? To what greater depths can he possibly sink to further the continuation of a cultural divide? Or perhaps he was alluding to the hundreds of thousands of black unborn children that Obama supports murdering.

While whites voted for Obama for a plethora of reasons (none of which I agree with), blacks in large measure voted for him because of his color. Jesse Jackson told blacks he was concerned that President Bush would, in effect, sabotage Obama during his last days in office vis-à-vis economic policies. I would argue that President Bush and Congress are sabotaging all Americans precisely because of their economic policy, and that Obama will simply continue to the nth degree.

The division and depth of resentment that victim-minded blacks harbor toward blacks who do not wallow in their despair, anger and malaise cannot be overstated. I was recently informed that quotes I made in a press release issued by the National Center of Public Policy Research ("Al-Qaida Leader's Anti-Obama Racial Slur Denounced by Black Conservatives"; Nov. 20, 2008) were ridiculed on a blog hosted by a black female intended for black moderates. I had said that I found the racist diatribe of terrorist Ayman al-Zawahiri "highly offensive," but because I view America through a different prism, I was maligned as one unworthy of taking exception to his comments.

A black media outlet posited that Obama's victory would result in a more hostile employment and cultural climate for blacks, the reason being whites would be able to openly practice exclusion because Obama's victory allowed for the façade of there being no more racism.

The same media outlet attacked me for "willingly perpetrating the American establishment's flawed premise [of] insisting that the gap in wealth, income, health care and education is due to an inherent culture of victimization," and my belief that hard work and preparedness are what it takes to be successful.

These are but the tip of the iceberg that will sink their metaphorical ship laden with such debilitating mindsets. As I travel the country and receive mail from readers, it becomes increasingly clear how great a depth certain blacks in key positions will plumb to ensure the continuation of a victim class, and serve the toxic heterodoxies that the black populi are eagerly willing to ingest, in order to remain culturally divided.
