Falling into the Racial Trap

As the Black Lives Matter movement continues to gain momentum, we are beginning to see the formation of armed black militias. Such groups have been seen in Georgia, and more recently in Kentucky, where they were met in counter protest by so called patriot militias. The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees all citizens have the right to keep and bear arms to protect from government tyranny. Furthermore, the Declaration of Independence states that the citizenry has the absolute right to dissolve any government that becomes destructive to the pursuit of happiness and the unalienable rights of man, and institute new government to secure those ends.  Black Live Matter is claiming they are oppressed victims of a tyrannical society. Are they not then, exercising their rights? Patriot militias have been forming in response to threats of gun confiscation and loss of American sovereignty under the rights secured by the constitution. If we believe that all men are created equal, does Black Lives Matter not have the same rights to secure their own happiness?

The answer to that question is that they do, of course. We cannot deny them the rights that we ourselves hold dear. Can we? According to the book Political Tolerance and American Democracythis is exactly what Americans tend to do. The authors make the claim that a large part of the American electorate tends to support the suppression of political and civil rights of minority groups since they are perceived as threats. Furthermore, the book Crisis in Civility: Political Discourse and its Discontentselaborates on this claim by suggesting that this is largely a Republican phenomenon. The authors here state that authoritarians who tend to view minority groups as a threat have tended towards the Republican Party and that those that seek to integrate minority groups into society are largely Democrats. They claim that Democrats are more likely to prioritize the protection of minority communities compared to Republicans.

That is an outright lie as the history of the Democrat Party largely proves that they are the racists as they have been the ones responsible for the KKK, segregation, slavery and eugenics. The current state of the black community in the inner cities is mostly due to Democrat policies and can, in large part, be traced back to Lyndon Johnson’s great society program. Most conservatives remember Johnson for saying “I will get those ni**ers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years.” Johnson’s welfare state destroyed the black family and arguably, their incentive to improve their lives as big government became their primary caretaker. This is not unique to black people; the loss of incentive is a common characteristic to anyone who receives sustenance without having to work for it.

Historically speaking, racism itself can be attributed to Darwinist thinking as blacks were viewed as inferior by those subscribing to the theory of evolution. According to the report Creating Racism: Psychiatry’s Betrayal by the Citizen’s Commission on Human Rights, Francis Galton, a psychologist and relative of Darwin, coined the term eugenics. This is a word recognized today as being associated with the modern abortion industry. The term itself means the creation of better stock and was derived because Galton believed black people had no independent will of their own and preferred a life of servitude. Given the fact that the Democrat party is largely known for being anti-God, it could be legitimately argued that this is what drove the idea that black people needed welfare and could not compete in modern society. This is what Democrats argue today. This is what Joe Biden meant when he said if you do not for him, you are not black.

Looking at things from this perspective, black people are oppressed. Their initiative has been subdued and their families destroyed not by free-market capitalism, but by a welfare system that exploits them for votes and power. There is some evidence that suggests that this is an agenda designed to not only enslave the black community to welfare, but to use them as a revolutionary army with the goal of eradicating capitalism itself. For years now, the Democrat party, being in firm control of education, has been teaching minorities that they are oppressed victims of a system that only favors white people. This, of course, only fuels hate and discontent. According to the book Color, Communism and Common Senseby Manning Johnson, the Communist party was directing an agenda aimed at making black people believe that white men were primarily responsible for all of their grievances. Who was Manning Johnson? He was a black communist who had made it to a high-ranking position in the Communist apparatus, taking orders directly from the Kremlin. The following is from Chapter 8 of Johnson’s book.

Moscow’s Negro tools in the incitement of racial warfare place all the ills of the Negro at the door of the white leaders of America. Capitalism and imperialism are made symbols of oppressive white rule in keeping with instructions from the Kremlin.

To one familiar with red trickery, it is obvious that placing the blame for all the Negroes’ ills at the door of the white leaders in America is to remove all responsibility from the Negro.

Johnson claims that the communist agenda revolved around making black people blame white people for their problems, ignore the opportunities around them, expect that the white man takes care of him and look for quick, easy solutions opposed to dealing with the harsh realities of a competitive, free-market system. This sounds remarkably inline with the belief that black people have no will of their own.

Truth is self-evident for those who choose to see. Much of what we see developing in today’s racially driven political scene is surprisingly like what Johnson describes. Groups like Black Lives Matter are being encouraged to riot and challenge the system by the very same people who have historically, been supporters of segregation, slavery abortion and the Klu Klux Klan. There obviously is a larger agenda at work, and if Manning Johnson had any credibility, that agenda is the destruction of America as we know it. From that perspective, it can legitimately be argued that black people are indeed oppressed and exploited.

As stated earlier, a claim is made in the book Political Tolerance and American Democracy that Americans are likely to support the suppression of political and civil rights of minority groups. Not only is this claim made by a political partisan, it is not entirely true. Many second amendment supporters believe, for example, that black Americans have the same rights to keep and bear arms as anyone else does. They are after all, Americans. It is, however, something that is being used to fuel the divide. There is little doubt that this is being taught in today’s social studies classes along with white privilege and other racially divisive concepts. It is an idea that is believed. Keeping this in mind when considering the formation of black militias, the left is pulling an Alinsky tactic to make the right look hypocritical. Alinsky says making the enemy live up to its own book of rules is the most effective way to destroy them. “They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian Church can live up to Christianity.

The website Thetruthaboutguns.com ran a story exposing the black militia in Atlanta Georgia as being actors in costumes. Staging events is not a tactic the left is afraid to engage in. If this is true, it gives more credibility to the idea that we are being set up. Particularly, considering that they are doing it with the expectation that this action will be opposed by the right based on the research in Political Tolerance and American DemocracyIt could theoretically be argued that opposing their right to keep and bear arms is just another issue that proves systematic racism. Which is their main objective, presenting America as racist. In other words, when you oppose a black militia, or run out in counter protest, you are only aiding in the left’s “America is racist” narrative. They are baiting you into it. Furthermore, they are showing that you do not believe in the ideals in which you claim to stand. If we have the right to form militias and bear arms in defiance of tyranny, so do all Americans. The point is not that they have a right to destroy our communities or start a war, but that the left is using them to not only destroy capitalism, but prove that we cannot live up to our own book rules by making us look like hypocrites.
