Well, as usual, it is white people. But not the white people you’re thinking of:
The myth of white racism serves a number of valuable psychological purposes for high-status white progressives:
* It gives them a great feeling of moral superiority. “Most white Americans are racist, but not us.”
* It justifies their high levels of wealth and income. “We are good, and so we deserve to be rich. It’s almost enough to make one believe in the existence of God.”
* It justifies their desire to keep political power out of the hands of the lower orders and as much as possible in the hands of judges and bureaucrats. “We believe in democracy, certainly; but we can’t let unlimited political power fall into the hands of racists.”
Of course, there are also people like the “civil rights” leaders and such to assist the rich, white elite to keep the myth alive – but its not there, any more. To be sure, there are racist white people in America – perhaps even many millions of them. They are just as deluded as people who believe in horoscopes – and the people who scam them are just as knowing in their scams as the psychics who take the suckers. In a population of 300,000,000 people there will be a percentage which believes the position of the stars determines their fate – and just as many people who will buy the moonshine that black people are inferior to white people. As a practical matter, however, racism plays no role in America – except as a prop in the leftwing morality play.
It is getting harder, to be sure, to make this sell – what with a black man in the White House, and all. But con artists know nothing other than how to con – and so now that things are rocky for Obama, they’re trying to paint the opposition as racist-based. And this makes our liberals feel so good. Never forget that – it was wonderful for them that Obama was elected, but they still need a world in which they, the elite, know better than the majority. The majority was ok – for a day; the day they elected Obama. Now the majority is in the way – in the way of Obama. And this means that some how, some way, the latent and inherent racism of Americans has come back to the surface. And the con is back.
This is why the inside job was done in Denver – and why, very likely, the swastika on the black Congressman’s job was also an inside job: the racists must appear. The con artists have made it appear – and rank and file lefties will eat it up (remember, it makes them feel good to be the wise minority opposed to the dimwitted majority). Pretty much as long as we have a liberal elite, we’ll have racism as an issue in this nation – because they need it.
But peace must come, at last – King’s dream will become a reality. It shall be that, “we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!” We just have to get rid of those who are conning us – people who, for base purposes, wish to see the world divided in to hate-filled groups. Groups which, of course, need an elite referee to keep the peace.
