Does Any of This Make Any Sense to Anybody?

 

From Wikipedia:

Brittney Cooper is an American author, professor, activist, and cultural critic. Her areas of research and work include black women organizations, black women intellectuals, and hip-hop feminism. In 2013 and 2014, she was named to the Root.com’s “Root 100,” an annual list of top Black influencers.” Dr. Cooper got her BA in English & Political Science from Howard University, her Master’s in Liberal Arts from Emory, and a PhD in American Studies from Emory. She is now a tenured professor of women’s and gender studies and Africana studies at Rutgers. She has also written several books, including “Eloquent Rage:  A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower.”

Dr. Cooper was recently asked in an interview what Black Americans can expect from White people.  She responded:

Like, the thing I want to say to you is we got to take these mother[expletive]s out. But, like, we can’t say that, right? We can’t say, like, I don’t believe in a project of violence. I truly don’t, … But I do fundamentally believe that things that have a beginning have an ending. All things that begin end. White folks are not infinite and eternal, right? … They ain’t going to go on for infinity and infinity. And that’s super important to remember that white colonialism and imperialism has a beginning. And in my way of thinking about the world, that means it has an end … Whiteness is going to have an end date, because despite what White people think of themselves, they do not defy the laws of eternity … But Whiteness is largely an, you know, an inconvenient interruption.

I remind you that Dr. Cooper has a Ph.D. and is a tenured professor at an American University. She has a BA in English, and her English is a jumbled mess of bad words, worse grammar, and even worse organization of her thoughts. She is clearly promoting the extermination of a race of people. Imagine if a white professor was asked about Black people, and he suggested that “we got to take these mother[expletive]s out.”  That white professor would be fired by the end of the day (as he should be, obviously), and would fear for his life. But Dr. Cooper is not worried about backlash:  “I have tenure. Rutgers won’t be firing me for tweets.” And I’m sure she’s right.

Does this make any sense to anybody?

This is just one of many recent events that have struck me as not just disappointing, but absolutely surreal.

One of my closest friends just got fired from a great job because he wouldn’t get the COVID vaccine.  Meanwhile, the Biden administration is considering paying illegal immigrants $450,000 per person, plus offering them citizenship, if they were separated from their family after they crossed our border illegally under the Trump administration.  I’m not sure about those who were separated before or after President Trump.  Anyway, my friend works in nuclear waste disposal, is very good at a very complicated job, and he will never bring in $450k in a year.  Especially now that he just got fired.  But, if he were to break certain immigration laws, he might get a check for $450k, plus other very nice benefits.

Does this make any sense to anybody?

Richard Levine was born in Massachusetts to a pair of Jewish attorneys, went to Hebrew School, then Harvard, then Tulane Medical School.  He worked as a pediatrician at Penn State Medical Center for nearly 20 years.  Near the end of his time at Penn State, Richard changed his name to Rachel and began to identify as a woman.

Two years later, his wife divorced him (women can be so difficult sometimes).  A few years after that, the Democrat governor of Pennsylvania named him/her as Pennsylvania’s Physician General, and then the Pennsylvania Secretary of Health. It was in his/her later capacity that Levine required nursing homes to accept COVID patients, leading to the death of thousands of Pennsylvania citizens (Although Levine’s mother was kept safe by being moved out of her nursing home and into a hotel at this time.).

You would think that a state Secretary of Health who makes an inexplicably bad decision that leads to the deaths of thousands would soon be looking for other work.  And you would be right.

President Biden promoted Dr. Levine to Assistant Secretary of Health for The United States.  Dr. Levine is doing so well that he/she was recently promoted to four-star admiral in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps.  So the first four-star officer in America’s uniformed services who is a woman is actually a man, whose only discernible qualification for that position is that he doesn’t know who he is.

Does this make any sense to anybody?  Anybody at all?

Are Biden voters thinking to themselves, “I’m sure glad that black professors can call for the extermination of all white people without having to worry about job security, and I’m glad that we’re firing law-abiding citizens while paying foreign criminals $450k each for doing nothing, and I’m glad that a government official who killed thousands of citizens through incompetence was promoted because he’s not sure which bathroom to use.  This is swell!  This is exactly what I voted for.  FOUR MORE YEARS!!!

Surely even Democrats are starting to think that things are getting a little weird, right?  I mean, my goodness.

Most of my Democrat friends are not stupid and they’re not crazy.  So all this stuff must be making them wonder, just a bit, right?  This isn’t increasing food stamps or changing some tax policy.  This stuff is just absolutely bizarre.  It’s getting harder and harder to tell satire from reality.  Does any of this make any sense to anybody?  Even Democrat voters?  Anybody at all?

Things keep getting stranger and stranger.  Surely Democrat voters are starting to scratch their heads a bit, right?

Surely…

    The people that are getting killed by trade and automation really need to just suck it up and learn to code.

    Coders in India are cheaper.

    And sometimes they are almost worth it.

    The turnover in some of the code mills is legendary. The guy that you explained the issues to last week is making better money across the street in Mumbai this week.
