Barry Hussein Soetoro told us things were bad when things were really good.

Every Leftist has nothing to offer but hate, destruction and ruin.

Bite me. That was my response to someone who stated that the root cause of all the stress and division in American life is Donald Trump.

I went on to write, “Your sentiment is almost correct, in that you ascribe to one man the responsibility for much of the turmoil and hate in American life. But it was and is the prevailing presence of Barry Hussein Soetoro, that is the root cause of all this horror.”

I grew up in the 1980s in New York. Color divisions were largely unknown or acted upon in the America I was a teenager in. I went to college in Chicago from 1989-1993 and there, too, I experienced a society largely colorblind, both in the university and the surrounding city.

Enter neo-Marxist, closet Islamist, deeply racist Barry Hussein Soetoro. Beginning with his destructive Administration and only metastasizing with the encouragement of a new generation of race hustlers, they screamed and screamed and screamed about supposed “white supremacy” and pervasive “structural” racism. That latter innovation was important - because as evidence of real racism was disappearing, the race hustlers and competitive victimhood industry had to “prove” that the racism most of us could not see was in fact everywhere.

Now the nation is aflame with bullshit about “systemic racism” and all the other race hustling nonsense which the Victim Industry had to dream up once a Black man became President, proving - to the rational - that America had indeed moved past its early, troubled history. When you make your (lavish) living off of someone else’s guilt or willingness to pay blackmail money not to be called racist, you certainly cannot stand a functioning society in which skin color matters less and less every passing day.

I am talking to you, Jessie “Hymietown” Jackson and you, Al “the Jews did it” Sharpton.

Every damned thing happening now is because of that two-faced clown and the coterie of Competitive Victimhood Marxist asshats which have infested our universities and the broader cultural landscape.

Lest you are wondering what I am on about, here is a concrete example of the difference between real racism and this new, manufactured crap:

1. Rosa Parks sat in the front of the bus. Moral people applauded that, while others hated it and wanted to preserve “separate and unequal.” But no one on either side doubted the existence of Jim Crow laws. This is a crucial point, because it is about objective reality. Racists applauded Jim Crow laws; everyone else wanted to abolish them. There was also an objective metric by which Rosa’s protest could be measured: things would have changed when she could sit in the front of the bus legally.

2. A spoiled brat getting paid millions of dollars to play a damned game decided to kneel instead of stand in respect for the National Anthem. He did so to protest “systemic racism.” The major difference between Rosa and the spoiled brat is that there was NO objective, universal agreement that such an amorphous thing existed. Because at least 50% of the country did not believe “systemic racism” existed, there was also no mutually agreed, objective metric by which the brat’s “protest” could be measured. Rosa’s protest ended when Jim Crow laws ended. What would be the factor by which everyone would agree the brat’s kneeling had yielded a result? In short - what would make him stand up?

The answer, of course, is nothing. If everyone does not agree a thing - “systemic racism” - even exists in the first place, then how can anyone agree the supposed thing has been changed? Because Leftists everywhere only destroy. They have nothing to create, they build nothing - they only foment chaos to try to grab power by telling people they can bring calm to the very insanity they created.

This nation is the freest on earth. All these artificial divisions profit the race-hustlers and competitive victimhood industrialists who exist to suck rents (read: taxes) from productive people. They want racial and ethnic division to grow, not shrink, because they have nothing productive to offer.

This is why the American and European Left loves Hamas and the Fakestinians - those groups, too, focus on hate, destruction and tearing things down in the name of group identity and whiny, bitchy victimhood. Jews and Israelis are defined by resilience in the face of negativity. The Jews created a Paradise out of the same barren desert the Arabs had lived in, and instead of emulating the talents, skills, drive and mindset that leads to success, they sit and bitch and cry for handouts from the United Nations, while teaching their children that Allah will love them if they die killing Jews.

Same shit, different languages.

Everyone in America needs to ignore the race hustlers, or ask carefully, Who is benefiting from these supposed divisions?

As Ilham Omar said, but this time it is appropriate, it’s all about the Benjamins.

I love the America I was born in and I still believe the vast majority of us are good people, flawed as all humans are, trying our best to do the right thing. I don’t listen to a word from these morons who whine and bitch all day about their vision of historical wrongs.

I would urge them to get over it and do something productive with their lives.

Given how badly Americans are fed up with the string of Woke crap that we’ve had jammed down our throats for the last few years, the Competitive Whiny Victim Industry is about to pay a whole lot less than it has recently.

Vote - and act - accordingly.

Messy Times Apocalypse Girl is choosing to ignore the masses. She’ll be focusing on flowers and hot tea, no matter what comes next.
