Are 95% of Blacks Really Incompetent?

I am just finishing reading a book by Kevin Jackson, “The Black Lie”. Jackson is one of the 4 to 6% of blacks that claim openly to be conservative / Republican. According to Jackson, it is very difficult for a black to converse in any manner other than liberal / victimology merely due to peer pressure within the black community. However, Jackson does not fear to take on black racism, including black racism against other blacks. The inside knowledge provided by Jackson of a domestic yet foreign culture is somewhat eye-opening, although much of it is easily suspected.

Jackson points to the facts: Republicans freed the slaves and Democrats repressed the blacks through demeaning legislation and the KKK subsidiary of the Democratic party for nearly a century. The Democrats under Lyndon Johnson first vehemently and heatedly opposed the civil rights legislation, and the Republicans were the ones who proposed and passed it with far more votes for it than the Democrats.

Nevertheless, the Democrats co-opted glory for the passage of civil rights legislation, but proceeded to pass victimology legislation to keep the blacks in thrall. Blacks now are largely dependent upon the largess of the politicians, and vote to keep it that way. They do not vote for the party that historically liberated them, they vote for the party that enslaved them, over and over.

The culture of victimology in the black community has produced a backlash against all forms of white culture, including education. “Players” look for ways to scam money out of the system, and are admired for doing so. (Is Charles Rangel not elected over and over?)

Kevin Jackson’s views are reminiscent of those of another black author, intellectual Thomas Sowell, who wrote a book which I reviewed not long ago. Sowell documented the massive “wars” mounted by the Left on poverty, homelessness, civil rights and so on – wars designed to redistribute wealth and entrap those “porchsitters” as Jackson calls them, wealth taken from the hated “rich” which means white middle class and up. The porchsitters are enabled to continue sitting on the porch, which they do, while railing against their benefactors and voting Democrat to keep the enablement in place.

Now a Justice Department ruling decrees that the Democrat party must be on the ballot. The small city of Kinston, North Carolina, voted last year to have non-partisan elections, where candidates would be on the ballots without party affiliations being noted. The Justice Department ruled that this is unfair to blacks, the rationale stated that whites would not vote for blacks unless the blacks are Democrats(!) According to the Washington Times,

“The department ruled that white voters in Kinston will vote for blacks only if they are Democrats and that therefore the city cannot get rid of party affiliations for local elections because that would violate black voters' right to elect the candidates they want.

Several federal and local politicians would like the city to challenge the decision in court. They say voter apathy is the largest barrier to black voters' election of candidates they prefer and that the Justice Department has gone too far in trying to influence election results here.

Stephen LaRoque, a former Republican state lawmaker who led the drive to end partisan local elections, called the Justice Department's decision "racial as well as partisan."

"On top of that, you have an unelected bureaucrat in Washington, D.C., overturning a valid election," he said. "That is un-American."

The decision, made by the same Justice official who ordered the dismissal of a voting rights case against members of the New Black Panther Party in Philadelphia, has irritated other locals as well. They bristle at federal interference in this city of nearly 23,000 people, two-thirds of whom are black.”

If 2/3 of the population is black, then the blacks could easily elect whoever they want without the help of the whites. Moreover, if the voters can’t identify the candidate they want by name, then they are obviously not responsible voters. The idea that the word “Democrat” is the key to voting for a candidate says explicitly that voters are trapped in the Democrat web, stuck in an unthinking culture.

If victimology – a term Jackson uses often – is the Democrat trap for blacks, it should work on other minorities too, right? Is it any wonder that the Democrats are actively seeking ways to get benefits – and the vote – to illegal aliens?

The victimology trap is nasty. It dehumanizes while pretending to benefit. And it self-perpetuates, with the dehumanizers given ever more power, while their victims rot, mentally, physically and spiritually.
