Opposing Injustice.




Some sad news is that one person killed at least 49 people at New Zealand mosques. Friday is the Muslim holy day. That is similar to the Sabbath on Saturday or what Christians celebrate on Saturday or Sunday. Dozens of people were injured. The murderer was captured, and he made a racist, anti-immigrant manifesto before his attacks. He was inspired by Dylan Roof and other racists. He attacked many mosques. People were screaming. The murderer reloaded his semiautomatic weapons and killed people again. He also shot at random people. He attacked another mosque too. This is the worst mass shooting in New Zealand in modern history. The tragedy happened at Christschurch, New Zealand. The shooter is part of the alt-right movement. His social media accounts show neo-Nazi imgery, racist rhetoric, and he promotes the myth of white supremacy. It is important to mention that Islamophobia is evil and wrong period. The killer hated immigrants, Muslims, and migrants. This is why I support immigrant rights and the rights of migrants. New Zealand is a multicultural country with a lot of great people. This situation exposes the fact that bigotry and intolerance is global in scope. These massacres don't just occur in America or Europe. We have to fight to make sure that injustices are ended. Now, the Senate rejected Trump's emergency order. The good news is that the vote existed to rebuke Trump's goal of an too powerful executive branch increasing its power. The bad news is that after Trump vetoes the law, there probably aren't enough votes in Congress to override his veto. Congress has to vote 2/3s (in the majority) in order to override a veto.



Also, before I leave for a few hours, I have to expose two people. One person is Tucker Carlon. He has been exposed for making other racist comments. One comment is that he said that the white man created civilization. We know that to be a lie since the first people on Earth are people of black African descent. Also, people of every color made great civilizations (i.e. ancient Nubia, Ghana, Nok, the Shang dynasty, etc.). He also called women primitive, which is another lie. Every woman that I know or are friends with are very intelligent people. He compared Iraqis to "monkeys" which is straight up racist. Yet, Tucker Carlson isn't fired from FOX News since FOX News cares more for profit than human decency. Also, a racist woman named YesJulz is another culture vulture. She has made racist remarks about black people, especially against black women. She has slandered Scottie Bean and Civil Brand when both of these black women created their own platforms by their own merit. Some people say that we have to ignore these racists. I disagree, because many of our people are being brainwashed by these ingrates (who benefit from our culture, but want to mock black people. A sellout named Murda Mook is defending YesJulz). Therefore, we have to set a tone and make a stand that no one is allowed to disrespect black women or any black person period. That is what we are to do. I don't play any games when it comes to my community. We have to keep our eyes on the prize (which is freedom and justice).

Trump has smeared socialism (which means the democratic workers' control of the means of production or the means of production is controlled by the community as a whole. Capitalism means that the means of production is controlled by solely private people or by private owners) as some totalitarian philosophy that seeks to ruin the world. Even some Democrats are afraid to even critique capitalism. Some are not just afraid to confront Trump in advocating for his impeachment (which is about the House sending an investigation for him to get kicked out of office. Impeachment isn't even about voting to getting rid of a President), but some want to believe in the myth that capitalism is somehow virtuous by nature. The truth is that no economic system is perfect, and the free market is never infallible. If the free market was so pure and virtuous, why are there numerous laws in the forms of regulations to stop air pollution, environmental hazards in the workplace, employment discrimination, etc. That tells me that a total free market capitalism in America is a myth. The purpose of capitalism is above all else to make a profit. We don't have free market capitalism 100 percent in America. Even some in MSNBC wanted to defend capitalism by saying that capitalism can end income inequality. That's silly since large corporations to this day refuse to do anything massive about it. The only way to end income inequality is by a radical redistribution of economic and political power as Dr. King has mentioned. Dr. King, Malcolm X, Claudia Jones, and other leaders critiqued capitalism in their own words too.

These hypocrites (who are silent heavily on corporate welfare and the massive profits plus bonuses acquired by the 1 percent oligarchy from the working class plus middle class taxpayers) lecture others on criticizing socialism, but socialistic policies abound in America and in the world in the following ways: government run postal services, government paid roads plus bridges, Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare, National parks, public schools, fire departments, Amtrak, the Department of Education, and other programs. Nearly every industrialized nation on Earth has universal health care, but we Americans don't. Most Americans believe in tuition free public colleges, a 15 dollar minimum wage, a higher tax on the wealthy, and a break up of the big banks. We are not the minority here in the States.

We are the majority. Recently, Trump said the inappropriate comment that he has the police, bikers, and military on his side (therefore, he said that they can be peaceful and if they want to be violent, they can). He is provoking chaos. Trump also promoted violence in his political rallies and called on cops to be rough on suspects. Trump has advanced violence rhetoric, and he is a disgrace. His words are wrong period. Trump's words are dangerous, and he is a domestic threat to America. He doesn't deserve the office of the Presidency, and he ought to be impeached in my view. America has a mixed economy not a totally free market capitalist system. If these hypocrites don't like socialism, then they should give up their Medicare and Social Security. If they don't, then they are outright hypocrites since both programs are in existence via government control. Therefore, people have the right to believe or not believe in socialism (you can be a socialist or non-socialist and still be a revolutionary), but folks should be called out if they slander socialism though. We want justice and freedom.
