re: Dr. Pimp is in:The Psychological Self-Perpetuation of Racial Victimhood

Yeah you right, Pimp. It's time for all the black people to realize slavery ended over 100 years ago! That's at least 4 generations for them! They need to quit acting all uppity! Your posts are always well thought out and on target!

Let it be noted that none of the many liberal posters who took issue with me for various PERSONAL reasons, ever even ATTEMPTED to discuss the issue of Racial Victomology. Not to refute it, not to expand on it, not to offer any countering ideas of any kind.... They will gather to offer "attaboys" for anybody who insults the person who offers up a thread premise they disagree with for debate, but they will NEVER actually wrestle with the premise itself. They have become so Reactionary in nature, that there are less and less of them who are able to even attempt to argue against a point that offends their sensibilities. That's a shame because the psychology of racial victimhood is a really relevant point right now in American Society. Every day we see it and hear it. It informs the entire conversation. What causes one to view oneself as a victim? Is it legitimate? What effects does that have on one's life? Is it healthy for one's self development? Does it help solve the problem of racism in America? Does it make things worse? These are all questions that will go un-discussed. What will be discussed is the perceived character flaws and existential worthiness of the person who poses the question. You will be told there needs to be a "National Dialogue" except that "dialogue" is expected to be a one-way recitation of Liberal Race Orthodoxy. Another day in The Liberal Idea Desert. No original thought allowed. Carry On.

Well, in the spirit of the exceptional level of honest debate on this board...I'll attempt to fill in for the no-show Liberal posters with some pseudo-Liberal, original thought. Since most Libs have long gone. And I do care about solutions for my challenged Black brothers...as just opposed to critiques of their current - and potentially dangerous/suicidal dilemma ( as I see it).

Any individual can truly be a societal *victim* of Nature - or God's will, whichever suits one's fancy - if they are inferior in ability to their peers in any form or degree. We have oft discussed the Genetic aspects of particular and general racial characteristics, as unbiased and true scientific research assesses. Facts are facts...comity aside.

I am a *victim*...in particular ways regarding my limitations relative to those individuals who hold societal advantage in gaining economic affluence over my own. This I know; and accept...as I have little or no influence in this (Genetic/Cultural) circumstance.

As such, to make lemonade out of lemons...I have adopted as my highest goal that of DIRECTLY securing the feelings of the which my impaired ability to compete for (given my relative *victimization*/limitation) limit my success; such being the very (spiritual) feelings which those competing for and gaining in the societal affluence/status competition, seek as their own ends. Is this not what even the most powerful in our midst seek...such feeling being...love, principled vision, peer respect, security, happiness and contentment/satisfaction in finding a worthy, interesting and purposefully challenging life.

In simpler words that many/most of the *victims* of White Privilege (Genetic/Cultural) could understand (if they listened), and per the above...I think both the Black Race, the White Race...and any other Race concerned...are currently *victims* of the status-determined-by-economic-affluence Culture du jour...as many individuals of ALL these Racial/Genetic classes find that their ability to successfully seek, and ACQUIRE the above (spiritual) feelings in their lives...are mostly realizing that these goals are becoming less available by the day.

Bottom line. The Culture of our Time, sets rules which seek spiritual satisfaction...via the indirect means of acquiring status...through economic affluence. Affluence, which is shrinking...as robots and high tech put pressure on the old economic model of affluence distribution, coupled with the ability of the envious to know exactly how well their successful peers enjoy. They say 'money can't buy everything' (meaning the above feelings)...but it sure can enable diversions for the frustrations inherent in living without those feelings.

A lot of Blacks are simple folk (racist assessment ). I'd say the happiest of Whites too; though many are like me...driven! It's genetic. But he Good Lord (and common sense) says that "lest ye be as a child, neither will ye enter the Kingdom". A child is simple...not powerful...not ego-driven. So both Black and White and all concerned...are really in the same boat. We have x amount of days before our acquisition of high tech...either frees us...or we do ourselves in. Finger pointing ain't gonna cut it. We'll have to get real...pretty fast.

I pray to God that leaders show up, and that the simple and the driven...see the (Second Coming) Truth on the horizon.

And of course, that we kick Notre Dame's arse.
