One of the interesting aspects to America’s obsession with race is the fact that the saltiest people on the race issue are the ones benefiting the most from it. Managerial-class whites get to live like white nationalists, while expressing their righteous indignation over white privilege. The talented tenth of blacks, living better than 90% of whites, are convulsed with rage over alleged racial inequity.
Here is a good example of that from a professional black person writing for a site called The Undefeated, which is supposed to be a sports website. The title of the article is “Doc Rivers and America’s Preoccupation with Black Failure.” Doc Rivers is a coach in

Interesting commentary. What is not earned cannot be properly appreciated. And, at some level, frauds often (likely almost always) know that they are frauds.
FTA:
"At some level, Roger Reeves knows he is nothing more than a decoration for the managerial-class whites who have manufactured him. Instead of wearing a red waistcoat and holding a lantern, he publishes authentic African gibberish for the benefit of whitey."
And the punchline:
"Seeing their creation [blacks put in positions that they don't deserve and didn't earn] angry at them, the whites in the managerial class redouble their efforts to create the grateful black prince who will absolve them of their sins. It is a cycle of racial madness."
Yes, exactly. And it works harm in the opposite manner, too.
I know a woman who was an accomplished military pilot, did many things that were objectively quite difficult, and did them better than most. She was voted several times by her (almost all male) peers to be the "the best", getting an 'inside award' that only meant something to that particular group of military pilots, but did really mean that they respected her skills, and rated her as the best of their very elite group. Little is more real and satisfying than a vote by your peers.
Then she left the military and went to the airlines, where a lot of the female pilots are there because they were given "a hand up" and some were permitted to go on when they were not actually good pilots, for political reasons. So, suddenly, when she was paired with another pilot (on every flight), that other pilot could not assume that the unknown female in the other seat was a skilled pilot who had earned that position of trust. Some of the female pilots were borderline incompetent, so they all had to be watched until you knew if they were any good. Since pilot pairing is random, among thousands of pilots with the same airlines, they infrequently see each other again. So, she had a somewhat dissatisfying career, never fully being given the automatic, assumed respect she deserved by her other airline pilot coworkers, because the standards had been lowered and everyone knew it.
So, not only the incompetent 'minority' person who is raised up is harmed and angered by this system of racial or sexual preferences, even the competent 'minority' person is punished because they are assumed to only be there because they are black or female, not because they are skilled at their profession. Their respect is stolen from them.
A hideous mess.....as is ALL of leftist garbage. They ALWAYS make things worse with their "solutions", and refuse to see that things are worse.

The irony of the Democrat exploitation of black districts in PA, GA, WI, MI, AZ, and NV to serve as the focus of their election ballot stuffing fraud is that is inadvertently disenfranchised legitimate black voters in those areas through dilution. Trump gained significantly in black support because of his position supporting police in those high crime areas and his economic populism that reduced the influx of cheap labor from illegal migrants.
Rather than deny this group access to the polls through poll taxes like the Democrats used to do in the Deep South they simply flooded their districts with bogus mail-in ballots from dead, out-of-state, underage, and illegal white people. That'll teach 'um to go off the plantation. History never changes some people.

my apologies for the runaway italics.....I'll try to be more careful. I intended them only for the quotations.

I really wish we had a few minutes to go back and edit our comments. Say five minutes from posting for the original poster to correct typos and such.

Reeves's anthropomorphic corn husks that scuttle down the road in the fog is indeed gibberish, not nearly as eloquent as Gabby Johnson's frontier gibberish. As an English major who specialized in Faulkner and modern poetry, I am thrilled reading lines of real poetry, which are languages' purest forms of expression. Most who are called poets these days are maulers of diction. I'm not interested in their fantasies, or in their sterile workouts with words.
Z Man will hurt some feelings with some of his conclusions, to wit: "This is the reason race relations only grow worse. The more that the managerial-class whites ornamentalize people like Roger Reeves, the more resentful they become at the white world that has created them. Seeing their creation angry at them, the whites in the managerial class redouble their efforts to create the grateful black prince who will absolve them of their sins. It is a cycle of racial madness." Quite so. Verbal schizophrenia isn't attractive, even allegedly written in verse. As James Dickey, a real poet, said about Allen Ginsberg's jumbled Kaddish, "It takes more than this to make poetry. It just does."

Edward Bulwer-Lytton penned "the pen is mightier than the sword" and "the easiest person to deceive is one"s self" amongst other memorable quotes. Charles Shultz Peanuts comic strip's repetition made "It was a dark and stormy night..." somewhat of a laughable introduction.
But I digress. IMO most entertainers are "post turtles"; they didn't get up there on their own. Most actors, comedians, singers ... don't write their schtick: they possess whatever is needed to sell it - voice, musical ability stage presence, and yes even race. A white guy would be laughed at doing Chappelle's or Rock's routines but I'll wager a bunch of white guys write a lot of it and those same white guys would be labelled racists if they performed it. It is the same with sports in that if a bunch of rich white guys didn't provide the market the black athletes would be SOL

Well he is right about all the TV commercials that Black actors are hired to appear in these days. As if a transsexual from Mars suddenly landed in the USA for the first time and turned on a TV, it would believe that Black folks make up about 70% of the USA population rather than about 12.5% just from the numbers of Black actors appearing in those TV commercials.
