A commercial for aid that is difficult to watch |
A friend and I recently talked about the tendency for professions in America to be in violation of Black Run America's (BRA) rules if there is a dearth of Black people employed in that particular field.
He then asked if I had read the article on Michael Oher's new memoir in USA Today, since the "Michael Oher Story" piece written here was once a popular entry that search engine optimization (SEO) pointed web browsers to at a rate of 100 - 300 per day before that Google decided to pull the algorithm code to Stuff Black People Don't Like.
I said yes, I had read it. The conversation then turned to how a number of white people found themselves to be at fault for the wreckage of inner cities (in the case of Oher, Memphis) believing that their flight was the precipitating cause behind the collapse.
None of this had to have occurred, these whites tell themselves, if we had only stayed behind to endure the high rates of criminality. We could have had an impact on those unwanted Black youth whose fathers -- and in some cases like Oher's, even whose mothers -- don't care about them and their future:
My friend then asked me if I had ever watched the commercials for sending 10, 15 or 20 cents a day to Africa to help starving children or those depressing ads with celebrities hawking texts to a certain phone number on your screen for malaria nets to save third world kids.I Beat the Odds opens with the adult Oher going to meet a woman he spent his childhood fearing: a responsible Memphis social worker named Ms. Bobbie Spivey. She kept track of Michael, one of 12 children born to a crack-addicted mother. (Oher had almost no contact with his father, who was murdered when Oher was in high school.)
In 1994, when 7-year-old Michael was in the second grade, he and his brother Carlos were put in foster care because his mother would periodically leave her children (including a 14-month-old) alone for days to use drugs.
When he was 11, he moved back in with her, but her drug use made and continues to make her an unreliable mother.
The topic of his mother pains Oher. "We were always loved," he says. "When she was clean and sober, she took care of us."
I said yes, but that the emotional pull of these advertisements had long since subsided. Immediately, he responded with this question: "But have you seen the commercials with Sarah McLachlan for abused animals?"
t was at that moment that a flood of emotions washed over my mind, the melody of McLachlan's haunting song Angel indelibly etched onto my soul, the images of abused and neglected animals tearing at my heart.
I could only mutter an affirmative yes.
Animals do not have free will. Dogs and cats provide man with companionship that to many represents a relationship as real and loving as any another human could give. But animals cannot care for themselves. Only sociopaths and those with severe mental disorders would dare mistreat or harm a defenseless, helpless animal.
Humans make choices that impact their lives and their families. Nearly 3/4 of Black babies in America are born out-of-wedlock, the sperm donors (loosely defined as "fathers") deciding that the State can provide a much better opportunity for success then they can.
Desensitized to Black suffering? |
Is it because of my awareness of hate facts like these that Sarah McLachlan's plea for abused and maimed animals overcomes me with emotion?
People who do evil to animals, defenseless and trusting, have a special place in Hell awaiting them. But at the the same time, when one understands the problems plaguing Africa (high population growth), the empathy for their situation fades entirely.
Having traveled to all of the major cities in America teeming with an inner-city population (read "Black") that most people residing in those cities - even Disingenuous White Liberals - pay handsomely to avoid, I have lost all empathy for that particular community.
Their problems are not due to white racism or white privilege or The Man; no, their problems are due to the condition they have created for themselves with their own hands.
So my sympathy lies with those people who cannot avoid contact with these people (Black or white) because they don't have the means to escape.Those who have no escape are the true victims of BRA; those who have no escape are the true victims of the oppressive smothering of any serious discussion in this country about race.
But my truest and deepest sympathy lies with those animals in that Sarah McLachlan appeal, as defenseless as babes, that can't help the condition they find themselves in.

Great article, but I have to disagree that people who abuse animals are either sociopathic or mentally sick. You don't have to be either to be violent towards human beings; it stands to reason that the same holds true regarding animal abuse. In fact, some who abuse animals (although I think this was more true in previous centuries) aren't even violent towards people: they're simply ill-natured cretins who -- either through inclination or choice -- don't view animals as sentient creatures, and thus are quite capable of throwing the dog a kick or punch even if they would never raise a hand toward the wife or kiddies. These people have the hottest place in hell waiting for them, even if they inflict less harm than their sociopathic and mentally deranged brethren, for the simple fact that they have absolutely no excuse whatsoever to fall back on.
I read somewhere (it may have been here) that the population of sub-Saharan Africa will be 2 billion by 2050. I guess their plan is to reproduce and wait for Westerners to feed them, inoculate them and maintain their infrastructure as well as build the required new infrastructure.
Most people would probably get more fulfillment feeding a hungry dog than an African.
Animals are our friends.
I've seen so many "save the starving African children" ads that I'm completely desensitized and apathetic to their suffering. In fact, it's become rather comical to me. But I love animals, and I have a much deeper emotional connection to cats, dogs, chickens, horses, goldfish (all of which I take care of) than I do with negroes.
If Michael Vick were white Peta would have made him a non person in society by now. with identity politics being practiced in the west he is safe.
Anon has a point. For proof google amish "animal cruelty".
I, for one, do not care one single bit about the starving in Africa. I DO blame outfits like Save The Children and other such do-gooder outfits for this starving. Population levels can be more or less self-regulating when left alone.
But! Insert new factors, like vaccines and food from the outside, and the population grows beyond what both the land and the indigenous people are able to support. Result: starvation, and more disease than you had before, despite the vaccines.
As for animals: I send money to places that care for orphaned or otherwise displaced wild animals. One is a place that takes in bear cubs who have been found with missing or dead mothers. The cubs are often trained to fend for themselves so they can return to the wild. If they can't be trained, they are provided food and a natural habitat to live out their natural lives in peace.
Human charity? Yes, I give. LOCALLY, and to my own kind.
The only ones that need help in the US are white people and animals.
I can't watch the animal commercial, either - I hate seeing them suffer.
The help African commercials draw no sympathy from me, whatsoever - not even a fly on the eyeball can make my lip quiver - because those advertisements are nothing more than mental exercises for DWL's, which, in-fact, serve not the unwilling or unable in Africa, but the sick and twisted ego of the white liberal; it's an emotional tool they use to make themselves feel superior to and separated from the 'authentically white'.
We all know white liberals have a monopoly on compassion.

Google search confirms that he is black.

Wow, this is tough...
I am a huge animal lover. I can say with all confidence that I like animals more than people. I am misanthropic most days. I don't even use my Yahoo mail account because sometimes they want to throw in a random WSPA ad of some abused bear that will stick in my mind.
When I learned of Vick, I cried and I wanted him dead. And, as much as I believe change is possible, I don't think it is possible for him. He should not be making millions now. What about the other inmates who've found religion and deserve redemption? Why some sociopathic asshole who felt he needed more money on top of the millions he was already making by running d**f***ting rings (I literally cannot type the word because I hate to even look at it!)?
I hope it isn't because he's black... There are enough blacks--truly changed people--in the prison system who need redemption, enough for a movie-of-the-week special that so-called 'DWLs' can feel proud of making.
Animals have a place in my heart that is unconditional. Period. This is why I don't eat meat.
However, it is unfathomable to me that African children (or Central American, in other ads) don't get sympathy, empathy. Kids cannot help the situation in which they were born. They are innocents.
Something is truly sick in someone's head to blame the child for their parents bullshit.
There was an ad featuring a young African boy who lived with his grandmother because his mother died and he had to take care of his younger brothers. He was a physically beautiful boy (most African kids are gorgeous) and cried in the ad. It was heartbreaking that he had to live this life as such a young boy, especially since with his grandmother's age, he'll have to work soon enough.
This is the reason for these ads. All children deserve the opportunity to succeed in life, to have the basics, which is the purpose of these charities--food, clean water, education, clothes.
But my true sympathy is with those animals in the McLachlan commercial. Animals can't help the way they are treated.
Well, sure, you can side with the animals but if you don't get that the children are innocent, too, you really are quite sick. No one should have to pay for their parents sins. It is against all rationality.
If they changed the hue of the children, putting them in any shithole in Eastern Europe (a giant toilet), would you feel differently?
If you say 'yes', you are fucking deranged. Color does not matter. God damn this earth for creating racists!
I totally agree with this post, but spay and neuter your cats. Feral cats are a major destroyer of wildlife species, and they damage whole ecosystems because they aren't native. Basically, feral cats are to local ecosystems what black people are to middle class neighborhoods, a destructive force.
I grew up in Memphis, and as much as I hate watching this once great city's decline, I do enjoy observing the gross mismanagement that occurred after the white managerial class and tax base moved out. It's now the blacks turn to run the show, so what did they do? They crony up city government, lose population, and scare off jobs and investment all while holding a magnifying glass to endemic black incompetence that occurs with a black majority.
Blacks have nobody to blame but themselves after the nearly 20-year reign of MFIC Willie Herenton proved disastrous for the city. There are so few whites residing within the Memphis city limits that the blacks now have nobody to blame but themselves for the condition of the city. They are very frustrated by the lack of convenient scapegoat to blame and host population to parasite onto. Looking at the "man in the mirror" has been an ugly sight for them for years. There have been enough whites and separatist blacks to vote down full-scale mergers between county and city, but it's always a looming threat.
Just recently the all-black school board voted to abolish the Memphis City School charter and force a merger with the much better performing schools in the county. The majority black city voters get a chance to vote for or against the merger, but the mostly white county residents are not allowed to vote on this illegal, forced consolidation. The county is now one election away from going Thunderdome, just like the city did in the early 1990's.
Why is it that a large number of firemen or policemen will work until their noble hearts explode trying to free a kitten or a puppy from some drainage pipe, and right next door you have some inferiority complexed simpleton killing these creatures for fun? And realistically speaking these dolts will never be caught or prosecuted. So that's the paradox: Are animals valuable and sacred, or are they as trash, inconsequential? We need to be good stewards. That means no more circus animals sparky.
Just saw the latest TurboTax commercial featuring the happy two-parent middle-class black family.
It never ends.
"But my true sympathy is with those animals in the McLachlan commercial. Animals can't help the way they are treated."
This may be true, but it's disturbing. How could you ever put animals before humans? Do you think they would care if you dropped dead right now? Would they pay for your funeral, bury you, or even remember you after they move on? No, they wouldn't.
Humans would. Not everyone is the best example of how we should be, but us humans have valuable characteristics that animals will never be able to obtain. Just keep that in mind, and keep in mind that this is just a view.
You Get What You Get
How could you ever put animals before humans? Do you think they would care if you dropped dead right now? Would they pay for your funeral, bury you, or even remember you after they move on? No, they wouldn't.
Good point.
This post proves that the blog owner and his white adherents are racists, dyed-in-the-wool. Like I've said, I like animals more than people en masse. But these are children we're talking about.
You people just don't like them because they are black. Again, if they were from a E. European shithole, would you care more?
No one is asking any of you to give a shit about LaMario doing double life at San Quentin. These are innocent African children. Like animals, they've done nothing wrong and are incapable of doing wrong, as they are kids.
Don't cry for animals and make sweeping statements about their tormenters having a special place in Hell, and then call yourselves compassionate.
You are not.
I mean, SBPDL was furious over some white girl being dragged in a chick-fil-a restaurant (and she was not harmed), yet he cannot even feel an ounce of sympathy for these kids?
Sick...
@ White Guy:

Yes, White Guy, justify your malignant anti-black hatred. You are such a fool. DWLs have nothing to do with it, baby, seek a psychiatrist!
According to the authors of the book 'White Racism', there are therapists that focus on this disease...
I ran into this homeless young black once upon a time and decided to take him home with me. He was a huge boy. Very well mannered and damned intelligent black fellow. At home he didn't even want to walk on the carpet until I invited him in. Would not accept food until you told him it was OK to eat. He had built in wisdom and knowledge that I have no idea how he acquired. Seems to me he can read thoughts and learns instantly. He's very good with small animals and children and not a mean bone in his body. This black is quite an asset because when people see him out in the yard they think twice about coming up to the door but in reality he is a gentle giant. My family really likes this black guy and has adopted him as a family member. He did however shit once in the back of my pickup but I figured he was so happy to be riding back there he could not hold it in so I forgave him.
The animal shelter folks said the name of this giant young black Labrador Retriever’s name was Floyd and so it is to this day.

Animals do mourn their dead. This is an amazing story. Some humans do not.

So should the entire nation of China, who are busy colonizing Africa and have utter disdain and contempt for both white people and Black people visit these therapists too?
It's long been said that racism is a mental disorder, that white people still cling to some arcane notion of "white privilege" but the only privilege whites have is to be officially discriminated against by their own governments (this goes for Europe as well).
It is rare to see Black volunteers travel to Haiti or Africa to offer relief to the horribly poor people there. Why?
I have volunteered at animal shelters before in three majority Black metropolitan areas and have only seen ONE Black volunteer out more than a couple thousand volunteers.
White guy makes a valid point that you callously dismiss as being a byproduct of some treatable mental ailment. DWLs do enjoy feeling morally superior to other whites; by offering help to every beleaguered Black person they get a high that no drug can replicate, save for the overdose of whatever fulfilling they get by confronting those white people who find the melancholy state of Haitians, Africans and many inner-city Black people (imported from Detroit, remember?) to be no fault of theirs.
"Yes, White Guy, justify your malignant anti-black hatred"
Excuse you, misanthrope.
I do not harbor malignant anti-black hatred. There is a sharp difference between resistance and hatred, Desiree; however, I do harbor malignant anti-DWL hatred.
Blacks are just along for the ride on the gravy train fueled by the bleeding hearts of white liberals who all seem to have pet-projects centering around the "misfortune" of the black and brown races.
Take, for example, that horse's ass on MSNBC that promotes his 'desks for Africa' nonsense - it's a shameless exercise in perverted narcissism. There is nothing altruistic about it. Nothing.
In the same way the uber rich one-up each other with the most luxurious toys, DWL's one-up each other with their vainglorious save Africa projects. The DWL's have been made to hate their white skin and they feel they need to make amends for it - this is called 'white guilt', it's called political correctness.
It's disgusting.
Desiree said:
"This is the reason for these ads. All children deserve the opportunity to succeed in life, to have the basics, which is the purpose of these charities--food, clean water, education, clothes."
So when are you going to move to Africa and do something about it? Try Sierra Leone, maybe you will be there the next time the RUF decides to try and overthrow the government. By the way the RUF soldiers eat aid workers and captured white mercenaries. You have no f*cking clue about Africa or what really happens there or why it is in the condition where western aid is required to keep people from starving. For people that would really like to get a good perspective on Africa, although a dated one, check out the film on google video "Africa Addio".
-Fed Up White Taxpayer
Malaria kills 2000 children a day.
That's all?
I give to no charities. Your government takes my property twice a week and dispenses it to whomever it likes. If you want a donation, take it up with Uncle Sugar.
"It is rare to see Black volunteers travel to Haiti or Africa to offer relief to the horribly poor people there. Why?"
It's not rare SBPDL. At my church, and all the black churches in my city have missionaries that are always traveling to Haiti, Dominican Republic, and so forth. They are always collecting food and clothing, and again,these people are black.
Now you might counteract my statement by saying, "Well that's just one city full of black churches when there's a lot more churches full of blacks that do no volunteering." Well, I'm here to tell you that these missionaries at my church and the others at the other churches in my city, meet up with missionaries all over the world.
Now, if you went to a black church, or even go to church, you would know there are missionaries that do these things. And better yet, there are missionaries in Haiti, Dominican Republic and so forth that are black.
"Like animals, they've done nothing wrong and are incapable of doing wrong, as they are kids.

Desiree has a point. If anyone is a subhuman in this world, it's people like you who still look at the color of skin on a innocent, helpless, and sick child. And then you have the nerve to look at a poor helpless animal that could one day turn on you and send you to the ER, or one of your neighbors, and have more sympathy for it than your own kind. SICKENING.
I'm not saying I hate animals. I'm animal lover. I love my dog and can't watch those animal shelter commericials because they're too overpowering.

Please notify their parents.
"Malaria kills 2000 children a day."
Why the fuck are these people having children?????
I called the save the chidruns hot line and offered to send 100 condoms, I was called an insensitive prick. I would rather use my hard earned money as extremely expensive toilet paper than to send any of it to africa, or any other brown country. I remember a few years ago how our govt sent close to 42 billion dollars to african to help educate the savages about aids/hiv. 42 billion dollars would fix a lot of our crumbling infastructure and help alot of folks that REALLY need it in the US of A.Liberal white stupidity knows no bounds.
Desiree, if you can't see that the uncontrolled reproduction of savages in Africa, constantly gestating and extruding more savages, is an enormous global problem, you are even more ignorant than I suspected. African savages are a disease that is killing civilization.
"Malaria kills 2000 children a day."
How can we get that number to meet or exceed the daily birth rate on that continent?
SBPDL:

I've always figured you were teetering on the brink of psychological implosion but this leaves me perplexed.
White Guy does not make a point, and I also question as to how well the rational thought faculties work in his brain, as he is delusional, the 'honkey' equivalent of a paranoid Pan-Africanist.
I know I am not a white Tea Bagger so I cannot/will not claim to know what it's like to be conservative in your politics (from the vantage point of a working class white) living in a liberal world. But to believe--and sincerely believe--that white liberals' only goal behind African charities is self-aggrandizement is crazy!
Even if they did do these ads and charities for their own benefit (and you have absolutely no proof of this besides the signals your own paranoia sends you), it doesn't change the fact these children are in need.
In this post, you postured that animals are defenseless and do not have their own free will. Yes, all of that is true. Then you go on to say:
Humans make choices that impact their lives and their families. Nearly 3/4 of Black babies in America are born out-of-wedlock
'for their families...'? If you cannot muster one iota of sympathy for a hapless child who was born into a situation to which they have no way to alter or control, you are deranged.
An animal and a child are of equal innocence. Pardon me if your alleged bleeding heart for animals makes me raise an eyebrow, especially when you, in the next breath, say African children basically 'bring it on themselves'.
The same 'DWLs' pushing the Feed the Children ads are the same ones making ads for the ASPCA, the HSUS. It isn't conservatives; they are all liberals because giving is a quintessentially liberal thing to do.
(cont'd)
No one is asking you to attach a sense of white guilt when you see these ads. It shouldn't even be about race. However, you seem to think it should be.
Again, if these ads were filmed in one of Russia's numerous orphanages and instead of Mbutu it was Irina stuck with no shoes, one of a million+ Russian street kids, would you feel the desire to help?
All child poverty and despair is heartbreaking. I think you and everyone else who see no nexus between the innocence of children and animals need to see a psychiatrist.
So should the entire nation of China, who are busy colonizing Africa and have utter disdain and contempt for both white people and Black people visit these therapists too?
What a pathetic strawman; that has absolutely nothing to do with the fact you and the others cannot 'get' that these African kids are just as blameless as animals.
It is rare to see Black volunteers travel to Haiti or Africa to offer relief to the horribly poor people there. Why?
I have volunteered at animal shelters before in three majority Black metropolitan areas and have only seen ONE Black volunteer out more than a couple thousand volunteers.
Who cares if you've never seen black people in you animal shelters? That does not mean blacks don't volunteer. Black people don't like animals as much as whites, by the way. I'd volunteer in animal shelter but many of my people would prefer to help at homeless shelters.
But, you are making the argument that white people are essentially closer to God than others. What a joke; read a history book. At the turn of the 20th cent., middle class 'ladies' volunteered to help poor and working class whites in urban areas. You would not see poorer people volunteering because volunteers don't get paid and volunteerism is a 'free-time' thing. Likewise, I doubt you'd see poor whites volunteering in shelters and in Haiti. White people, as a whole, have higher incomes than other groups. Higher income = more free-time = more white volunteers. It's not a tough concept.
This whole thing is quite simple: you obsessionally hate black people, and innocent children, because they are black, deserve to suffer. No more coy 'guess my political opinion on blacks' attitude; you are just a racist, and one asking for 'handouts' to boot.
I doubt this will be posted (my other good comments never seem to see the light of day) because you hate the truth. But see it as food for thought...
@ White Guy:

The DWL's have been made to hate their white skin and they feel they need to make amends for it - this is called 'white guilt', it's called political correctness.
This is still a justification because you know that there is something wrong if you do not want to help a child.
My misanthropic attitude does not extend to children. They are innocent.
Is it totally unreasonable for you to actually think that these so-called 'DWLs' are altruistic? So, a white person wanting to help a black person is a race traitor? A narcissist?
I am trying to understand your psychosis.
No white person is dissatisfied with their whiteness. There may be those who (correctly) see that there is more than a mere tangential relationship between global white affluence and colored poverty, but none of them hate being white.
People who tan hate their white skin but they don't hate being white.
I dislike a phony as much as you do, but your pessimism and selective empathy is repulsive. Desks for Africa is a good idea, noble and compassionate. Who cares what his mindset is? If the result is desks for African children, I don't give a shit if he calls these children 'niggers' off-air.
If it were Desks for Romania, would you feel differently? Because, as I've mentioned a million times on this blog: Eastern Europe is a shithole, but they are white.
A big difference here is that is we adopt an animal, we can have it spayed or neutered. There are also clinics where this is done free of charge.
Unfortunately, this choice is not an option for the unwanted dying children (or those who spawned them) in Africa. I would donate ALL my discretionary income toward spaying and neutering of African people, no matter what continent they are on. I might even take on a second job.
"How could you ever put animals before humans? Do you think they would care if you dropped dead right now? Would they pay for your funeral, bury you, or even remember you after they move on? No, they wouldn't."
Would they care if I dropped dead or even remember me after I move on!?!? Of course they would. When I moved out of the parents house the cat was so upset that he got uremic poisoning and died. So you can't tell me they don't care.
As to paying for the funeral and burying me a responsible person would already have that stuff paid for. But, I digress. This world has already sucked all the empathy from me because people just want more than I can give. If anyone of you died today I could give a rat's ass. If it was family or friend then, yeah, I'd shed a tear.
On a side note: Why does every other black man I see want a cig or some change or a ride or just something from me? I mean I drive an 11 year old economy car, why don't you go ask the brother over there with the late model Escalade for some change? Ah, the fatal flaw- brothers don't dig charity.
"All children deserve the opportunity to succeed in life, to have the basics, which is the purpose of these charities--food, clean water, education, clothes."
In a few short years, each of these precious darlings will be eagerly cranking out more precious black snowflakes of their own. The concept "if you can't feed them don't breed them" will never enter any of their heads; they will breed because it's their culture. And, after all, YOU fed, sheltered & clothed HIM... now, you can feed & take care of his 9 darling children, & their 15 cousins, right....?
