Hillary Clinton the last to admit her own death

 

There’s something that’s bothered me for a long time.  No matter if it’s this Rama-Lama Bama guy or any other colored person.
Why are all referred to as, “black?” They aren’t all black at all.  Many are beige, or tan. Some are very black indeed. But all are referred to as black.
Or else Afro- something. Like Afro-American when some are not that at all.  Isn’t the proper word, Negro?  Like white is Caucasian, right?

I don’t suppose it matters much, but I’ve been curious about that for awhile.  I also understand (and I come late to these things) that the term, Oriental is no longer an approved word.  Good Grief. Why? I never thought that was an insult of any kind.  Isn’t there an Orient anymore?

1. Hey, it’s the UK that messed up a perfectly good description by letting the Arabs be Asians.  Sure, it’s accurate and correct, “western asia” being anything south and east of the Caucus mountains, but it gloms 3 entirely distinct groups into 1 category.

   And where do we draw the line with the Orient? Is it more correct to call it Epicanthia, or does Orient also include Pakistan, India, Tibet, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh (which used to be referred to as the Sub-Continent) and perhaps some of the -stans up in the mountains?

   To the Chinese, we are all Outer Barbarians, and that’s enough for them.

   Beats me what the thing is with non-white, non-hispanic, non-Native American Americans. I think they change their category descriptive name just to bug white folks. In my granny’s day, “colored people” or “the colored” was actually polite. That went away. They were happy to be “negros” back when I was a kid, but that’s gone too. “Black” and “African-American” seems to come and go; we also had “people of color” for awhile, but that seemed to also include anyone a Brit would call Asian, so that was out. I think it comes down to this: a melanin enriched person can use whatever descriptor they want, even the basest terms, and that’s Ok, but any term used by a melanin depleted person can be found offensive by a melanin enriched person whenever they feel like it. And while white people come in about 100 different varieties, from Finns to Greeks, ALL of them may be lumped together as (typical white folks) white people by the melanin enriched ... but should any white person refer to the generic group of melanin enriched as a group (eg “you people"), God help him.

   Now, if you want to understand how Obama can be black, you’ll have to really start bending your mind. If he goes to Indonesia, does he become white the same way Tiger Woods becomes an Asian when he visits the Far East? Say that Obama had married a white woman, instead of Mrs. O’proudly there. His kids would be only 25% melaninic, but they would still call themselves black. BUT, and it’s a HUGE but, but if you were to refer to the kids, accurately, as Quadroons it would be YOU that was dragged out of town, branded, and hung from a tree. Probably by white people. Democrats even.

   Go look up Homer Plessy and the One Drop Theory from the Jim Crow days, then try to figure out why the whole thing has been turned inside out, instead of being thrown into the famous Dustbin of History. Pride? Perhaps so. Economic and social advantages? Also possible. I don’t know the reason.

   What I do know is that my mother spent more than a decade doing the family genealogy, and I can’t play this game AT ALL. And I’m pissed. The most “ethnic” I can come up with is 1 relative who fled fwance under the Hugenot wars. All the rest are English and Swedes, going back to before the bloody Vikings. Even the damn Dutchmen forebears were over here before there was a here over here.

2. Weeelllll, as for Hitlery Rotten Anti-Christ, she should just go die. I’m relatively sure the SS that gaurds her aren’t happy with the job. Or, better than death, ridicule. Oh, THAT would simply drive her apeshit. You know that if Osamabama was to pick her as vice, and they did win, HE’D be dead in six months or less. Don’t deny it, there ain’t no doubt in my military mind. That would be the only step for her to POTUS? She’d have him done. In an eyeblink.
