welcome to the spirit of january

---

Everything that is erupting in our midst is driven by chronic oppression.  The criminal invasion of January 6th was an extension of an American practice - the stampeding of a raging white mob. The behaviors, attitudes, methods, practices, faulty judgment, toxic belief systems, irrational and erratic narratives and fantasies are all rooted in oppression; an oppression that evolved from the establishment of this society now in the middle of disasters of its own making.

Throughout American history mobs broke into jails or courthouses overpowering (or having the cooperation of) sheriffs, judges or local officials dragging people out to be burned, mutilated, shot and lynched. These mobs were never prosecuted, the atrocities were never confronted as such. In fact, these repeated heinous acts were celebrated, organized and advertised to onlookers traveling distances to see the carnage. Photographs of the murdered victims were made into postcards for souvenirs and tourism. So by definition, the acts of murdering and vandalizing mobs were protected, normalized, permitted and accepted into the fabric of American practice. The stampede on the Capitol on January 6th 2021 affirmed that there is no law an enraged white mob has to respect - an American practice that stampeded and raged against itself. Weapons, nooses, gallows and all.

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, there are those who defy any safety measures regarding crowds and gatherings. They refuse to wear a mask proclaiming a constitutional right not to be told what to wear or what to do with their bodies only to be topped by a refusal to believe that there is a pandemic at all. They put themselves in danger while putting others at risk including the first responders and medical staff who are bound to provide them care. It is like a fire fighter running into a burning house to rescue a moron demanding their constitutional right to choose what to wear before being rescued or refusing to believe the house is on fire at all putting themselves and the fire fighter at risk.  The damn house is on fire, it is called an EMERGENCY. So is a PANDEMIC.

Victims of oppression are incapacitated to see what is in front of them or believe what is happening around them. They are only permitted to react to what is interpreted for them leaving them to make dopey decisions spun out of a simple minded rationale. Chronic oppression is a dumbing down process that molds people into vulnerable empty vessels in need of definition. And there are plenty of opportunistic predators waiting to do just that.

As the disasters of the day will be fed into the American mental wood chipper, the disasters are doomed to complicate, mutate, infect and repeat. No accountability nor resolve will happen because that thought process chops up information to form a needed conclusion far away from accountability or resolve. Recent conversations about how  people become radicalized, as if it’s a new thing that just sprung up, has nothing to do with the long-standing existence of the American ego based on racist entitlement. 

The actions of morons, thugs, gangs, mobs and marauders are one thing. The failure, inability or flat out refusal to stop their degenerate and criminal behavior goes to the very definition of chronic oppression. In spite of so-called laws, the bottom line is that those ‘laws’ will be picked apart, freeze framed, denied, ignored and revised to preserve the esteem of whiteness. There comes a point where a problem no longer lies with its origin but instead lies in the inability or conscious decision not to do anything about it.

America cannot just move on from conflicts rooted in its addictions. It must first acknowledge its condition and admit that it is powerless over a convoluted notion branded as ‘white supremacy.’ 

Only truth and justice beats oppression and it must be unlearned in order to end its perversions. Only then can there be healing and a true path forward. Only then can a collective dependency-free mind set provide accountability and resolve.

Claim your mind. Confront for once and for all the oppression that defines this society starting with yourself. Who are you? By what authority? Decide to recognize self as a sovereign human being, not an object of oppression - not an extension of a maniac's delusions. Your one changed mind is the start to a dependency free populace of sovereign human beings.

Thank you for stopping by. Some folks are aware that I am updating what I wrote on chronic oppression about 32 years ago but you don’t have to wait for me. There is so much out there about predator violence, manipulation, coercion, mind control, trafficking, gangs, cults, addiction, abuse and neglect that goes right back to the systemic oppression defining this society. All that is needed is an honest look at how this society was established on stolen land having committed genocide against nations of indigenous peoples and built on the backs of human beings imprisoned in chattel slavery. And then out of all that, how a false and convoluted identity was enforced. A white superior race dominated by males. What the hell.

Confront oppression.
