ABOVE: Conservatives imagine a new dialogue on race

The Ole Perfesser recommends this fine piece of nonsense that defends Old Punk’s noxious rant by saying that it was really no different than… wait for it… a Chris Rock comedy routine! No, really:

And the thing is, I did read Old Punk’s posts: both his original one and the response to his critics. And I watched the Chris Rock video. And the same thing struck me, as I watched, and read.

Almost any conversation about race in America is bound to be filled with comforting platitudes and if it isn’t; if it starts to stray into the raw, honest territory Barack Obama says he wants us to venture into, things get uncomfortable mighty fast. Things will be said that make us cringe, on both sides of the fence. And when that happens, we need to be extremely careful about making reflexive accusations of racism.

Because we cannot ever, really, know what is in someone else’s heart, merely by looking at the color of their skin. If we do presume to know that, aren’t we indulging in… well, racism?

What I saw, when I watched that Chris Rock video, and when I read Old Punk’s posts, was two sides of the same coin.

It didn’t take a genius to see the compassion beneath the anger, in both cases.

Golly!

Question: do you know what the first thing Chris Rock says in his infamous “n-word” routine? That’s right: he says that he loves black people. Old Punk, on the other hand, says that while he does “not hate black people,” he is “sick to death of black people as a group.” And what did black people do to him to garner this revulsion? Did they beat him up? Harass him on his way home from work? Why, no! Apparently all they’ve done to tick Mr. Punk off is to wear “tee shirts down to their knees — and jeans belted just above their knees,” which makes him “want to smack them.” They also drive cars that he disapproves of. Oh, and he also suspects that black people are really “a secret society, a massive collection of sleeper cells just waiting for your chance to do serious harm to the rest of us.”

This is significantly different than what Chris Rock was saying in his monologue! Mr. Punk is not merely trashing the self-destructive aspects of hip-hop “thug” culture that Chris Rock and Aaron McGruder capably satirize on a regular basis! He’s saying that he’s “sick of black people as a group” and implying that they’re all terrorists! Can we not see the difference here! Do not make me break out my chart again!

It gets better:

I understand the impulse that makes people want to use the word ‘nigger’. One seeks, by altering our instinctive associations with that word, to lessen the pain it invokes. That is why many blacks object when whites use the term, yet utter it themselves with careless abandon.

Note to Cassandra: it’s perfectly acceptable for people to make fun of people within their own race or ethnic group. Haven’t you ever wondered how Woody Allen and Mel Brooks get away with telling all those Jewish jokes? Ding, that’s right! Because they’re Jews! Similarly, I can trash white people all I want without it being bigoted; hell, when I’m not blogging, I insist that my friends call me Honky McCrackerlips.

Ugh, I can’t believe this is so hard to understand.


UPDATE: And let me take this opportunity as a white guy to forthrightly renounce and reject the band Creed, who have done more to damage the music reputation of white people than any band since Stryper.

    It is the conservatives who are the racists with their opposition to affirmative action. Blacks have been persecuted for centuries therefore the playing field needs to be leveled. In fact affirmative action should be with quotas so that all of America can be represented in any and every work force.

    Every day that Chris Rock gets home from….whatever the hell it is that Chris Rock does all day, he sits down and silently weeps for coming up with this bit and thus giving every white racist asshole an excuse for continuing to be a white racist asshole. Of course, he does this while sitting in a chair made of solid gold, while nubile, topless young ladies feed him grapes but…still. He’s weeping, that’s the point.

    I goaded the OldFart into adding an entire second post to try to explain his first one, simply by dissecting/translating the first one in the comments section. He still can’t grasp that having a different fashion sense or taste in automobiles isn’t a sufficient reason to go around shouting “NIGGER!!!” at other people.

    Why does some people here consider me a troll I’m a liberal in fact I’m a Christian Socialist. I support national healh care, a progressive income tax, full government paid welfare for any Americans who can’t work or take care of themselves, free public education (minus the secular component), social security, amnesty for undocumented immigrants, free college scholarships for all Americans. I may agree with conservatives on abortion and same sex marriage, however I also believe that capital punishment is immoral and should be abolished, I support abolshing the police force and replacing it with community activists trained in conflict prevention, I also believe the Iraq war is unjustified genocide and that the Chimperor and Darth Cheney should be impeached. Still want to accuse me of being a troll?

    Ha ha, let them continue. Don’t say a word, just let all the bitter impotent old farts (McCain not included) rant and rave.

    You see they were brought up in a time when crackers could push around the black kids in high school. They thought it was funny.

    Now their own grandkids know the words to the latest Soldja Boy song, and that’s what really upsets them; they got to watch their dreams of a whyte power majority get drowned out by hip hop.

    If you really believe that strongly in Affirmative Action I think you’ll even catch flack for those views at this DFH haven.

    Ahem. Let’s revisit one of Old Punk’s key points.

    (ignorant)
    “I just feel the need to point out that Senator Obama is just as white as he is black.”
    (/ignorant)

    Um, I don’t know exactly where Old Punk’s from or resides, but I’m going to guess that he/she’s not from the Deep South. Because down heah, among some folks, there’s absolutely no such thing as being part white, y’all. You’re either white or you’re not. If you’re of mixed race (assuming that one of the races in question is Caucasian), you’re not white.

    Oh, wait, let’s jump forward to Old Punk’s next graf and see what we can find.

    (ignorant)
    “You’re not just speaking from a reference-point of ignorance, stereotyping and fear, right?”
    (/ignorant)

    Well, I can’t speak for this Jennifer person to whom the Old Punk appears to be addressing himself/herself, but I’m pretty sure that someone in that thread is speaking from such a reference point.

    As a lifelong liberal and democrat, I am a little concerend about the rancour and disagreement between the candidates, and the fact that one is a black man and another a woman. They also talk in weasel words and lie alot. I don’t think either can win the heartland, unless they reach out and start to talk a language the silent minority grass roots can relate to. I’m afraid that I may have to vote for McCain, because at least he talks straight and tells it like it is and will keep us safe from terror. Just sayin

    No way he’s for real…

    I support national healh care…
    …I may agree with conservatives on abortion

    Hmm… no contradiction there. National health care, but only for things I don’t find icky!

    But do you agree with conservatives on access to birth-control, and comprehensive sex education in public schools? I think you might, which means you’re in the “health care for me, but not for thee” category of BS artists.

    I may agree with conservatives on abortion and same sex marriage…I support abolshing the police force

    So you think abortion should be a crime, but you don’t think there should be any police to enforce it?
    Do you agree with conservatives about sodomy laws? Because the only way your ideal “conflict prevention action squad” can prevent abortion and consensual sodomy is through a rather agressive invasion of privacy.

    I also believe the Iraq war is unjustified genocide…

    I think most folks were undecided between “deliberatly hyperbolic” or “ignorant idiot”, but this decided it for me. Go read up on what the Turks did, and how they did it, then re-read your WWII history, then go look at Darfur and the Sudan. Then, if your little head isn’t too stuffed with information, read up on the ethnic divisions in Iraq. There are many atrocious things about the U.S. occupation of Iraq, but genocide isn’t one of them. Like Doughy Pantload throwing around the word “facism”, claiming genocide while hyperventilating only serves to weaken legitimate uses of the term.

    I also believe that wars don’t just start out of thin air, they happen because the government and the military industrial complex want them. Therefore I think the military should be abolished and when it is other nations will follow our example.

    Allow me to diagram your statement in classical logical structure, and see if you can spot the problem:

    If A, then B.
    Not-B, therefore PurpleMonkeyDishwasher

    If the military were abolished all other countries would follow our example and then their would be world peace.

    It’s really breathtaking to see such rank ignorance of world history. Who knew that it would only take three generations to forget all memory of a time before standing armies? Cubby, a standing military is a modern convention, but wars are ancient. As for dismantling your army so everyone else will follow suit, go look at the Imperial history of China and see how well that worked.

    I’m probably one of the most liberal members of this blog.

    Except for those whole “gays are second-class citizens” and “fan of forced pregnancy” things, I’m sure you’re a great liberal! Actually, I think you’re a fantastic liberal when it comes you your rights. I’m guessing you’re a nice shade of pale white, like chicks, and will never become pregnant or menstruate.

    As a lifelong liberal and democrat, I am a little concerend about …the fact that one is a black man and another a woman.

    BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHA!
    Nice. As a lifelong liberal, you’re concerned that one of our candidates is black and the other is a woman. But you’re a democrat! Really!

    I don’t think either can win the heartland, unless they reach out and start to talk a language the silent minority grass roots can relate to.

    ‘the heartland’? Gary, is that you? We’ve missed you so!

    As for ‘the silent minority’, well, after the last 8 years, if they’re not willing to speak up and be heard, let me be the first to say fuck them! Seriously, fuck them in their stupid asses. “Silent majorities” don’t speak, and they don’t vote, and they can just fuck right off. If 8 years of Enron, WorldCom, Abu Ghrave, Afghanistan, the Patriot Act, no-fly lists, liquid bans on flights, 4000 dead U.S. soldiers, a veternarian being appointed head of Women’s Health Services, Scooter Libby’s pardon, a booming deficit, a shrinking middle class, and a looming recession aren’t enough to get people to stand up & speak for themselves, well, I guess they’ll just have to be “good Americans”.

    I’m afraid that I may have to vote for McCain, because at least he talks straight and tells it like it is and will keep us safe from terror.

    What’s neat is how totally upside down everything in that sentance is…
    I’m afraid that I may have to vote for McCain… no you’re not. You’re looking forward to voting for him
    he talks straight… Al-Queda, Iran? Abortion rights? Religious fanatics in the U.S.?
    tells it like it is… His knowledge of economics? His position on allowing the U.S. to torture? His support for Rumsfeld?
    will keep us safe from terror By keeping us in Iraq for 100 years? By cozing up to the most extremist factions of Christianity in the U.S.? By continuing to let Afghanistan fall back into the hands of the Taliban? By snubbing the U.N.?

    Come on Gary, we know it’s you. Welcome back home!

    Personally, there’ve been several instances where I’ve caught myself in either emitting or condoning sexist or racist expressions or thoughts, & what I find helpful is a wonderful little trick called “Telling Myself To Give My Head A Shake & Dummy The Fuck Up” … it’s not a sure-fire panacea, but it does seem to alleviate the problem, with repeated applications.

    It’s not as easy as it sounds.

    Owning up to your darker side can be a bitch.
    The neocons’ toxic neurosis stems from their denying that they have one.
    Which makes it stronger.
    Eventually it becomes totally dominant - it LOVES ignorance - so the denial-junkie has to reformulate it as virtuous.
    Voila — moral dyslexia!

    Get enough people of voting age scared or angry or confused enough to play along, & you can even wind up subjected to the spectacle of supposedly sane adults openly debating the pros & cons of things like suspension of habeas corpus or torture, with a straight face.

    In the middle, me. With some significant firepower and an anger management problem.

    Now sure, I think religion, especially to the extent you make it the central focus of your life, is silly and reality denying.

    But the gary ruppert asswipes piss me off. It’s a worldview built on a foundation of hate, fear, scarcity and tribalism.

    So know what, heartland boy? You gotta pick sides at some point. I’m pretty sure, many things being less than equal, that if some kind of big balloon goes up like you so fervently hope, my best interests will not be represented by your squad. So think about who’s in your tribe, sure, but think about who’s not too…

    No, the difference between Chris Rock’s bit and all this rightwing racism is the sense that Oldpunk or whoever the author is, he’s a victim of black people! Not because they robbed him or stole his car or eloped with his daughter but simply because their fashion sense and musical preferences somehow intrude upon his reality in some way that constitutes mental harm and therefore he is the “victim” of some cultural assault!

    The funny thing about racism is if you move somewhere else, you can see it so much more objectively. Take the Hutus and the Tutsis - to an American crackerhead like Oldpunk the context is gone - why, both groups are black and listen to loud music and wear colorful clothes, how can they possibly hate each other to the point of genocide??

    The causes of racism are always the same - one group feeling culturally threatened in some way or another and therefore lash out in anger and hate.

    The average liberal (of every cultural group!) is far less racist because he or she is CONFIDENT of their OWN culture, whereas your average wingnut retard honestly believes their little pocket of way of life is under constant siege and assault from their literal neighbors. And since this is not logical when it comes to your Oldpunks, logic will never do anything whatsoever to change their minds.

    Had a long post, but I lost it.

    The long short of it is you guys need to go to Instapunk and read the defenses they have going on over there. The one Jennifer coaxed out of oldpunk is priceless, and way funnier then the post that started this, which was just the same tired schtick the KKK always trots out when they’re in mixed company.

    Oldpunk stays close to his name-appropriate oldschool ways, bringing out the old “It’s black culture that’s destructive, and YOU’RE hurting black people by not criticising it!”. It’s a stock defense, but oldpunk sells it like nobody’s business. My favorite part is when he describes his Gregory House-like ability to deduce a person’s entire personality and situation just from the clothes they wear and the car they drive. But unlike Dr. House, he just feels a deep sadness when a clump of dirt on a person’s shoe tells him that that person was raised by a single mother.

    Instapunk takes a different tack, trying to appropriate the left-wing idea of political kabuki. Apparently we’re waterboarding oldpunk because we want to get the coveted position of grand MC at the next DailyKos convention, or something. But it’s not all new with Instapunk, he also busts out the classic “He was just saying what everybody thinks! It’s not like you’ve never had a bad thought!”

    Well, I can’t speak for anybody else, but I’ve never felt like black people who wear their baseball caps sideways were double-dog daring me to call them a nigger. I suspect the burning desire to scream racist epithets at passing black men is less common then the punks suppose.

    Seriously, people, those posts are way more fun then Gary Ruppert.
