A Couple of Essays on the Subject of Racism by a Close Associate of Mine

I have watched, subsequently, in full and in real-time partially, the “Kung Fu” series. It is an absolute favorite of mine.

My favorite scene, I’m pretty sure and convinced, happens when Quai Chan Caine, a native American, and a local cowpoke are at an impasse. Quai Chan Caine, as usual, is trying to help. The local explains in exasperation the impossibility of the situation and the unsolveability [sic] of the problem as if it is obvious: a white man trying to reason with a savage, saying something like “you see the situation here?”. Quai Chan Caine, retorts that “I see three men”.

My friends, this is the crux of it. I’ve recently had a couple of reminders in my literary absorptions of the sharpness of the assumption of superiority – hence the axiomatic assumption of inherent inferiority of someone else relative to this assumed superiority. This is the bane and the weakness of us humans and the seeds of the downfall of our world. This is the problem. And if you buy into it to any degree you are the problem.

For friends, no matter how you slice it — in your set binomial ways: man/woman, white/black, culturally advanced and accomplished/barbarian, saved/forsaken — it is wrong. There is no one human superior to another in any way at all. There are no inferiors to you or me or to anyone else. Period.

If you can’t see this and actually try to do something about it, that’s the end., We can’t be friends. We can’t truly communicate, at least as humans. As the reality of our cosmic spirituality we are one as are “they”.

And if you can’t see what’s obviously in your face, that nationalism, christian nationalism, racism, etc and anon are steeped in everything T****, his enablers, his cohorts, his supporters say and do, then you can’t really be helped in this lifetime. The karma will all play out over cosmic God time, so I’m not concerned or worried. We are all on the journey to the same destiny of Creation. It’s just in this lifetime, here on earth that I can’t help you.

I oppose you even while I shower you in the light of Christ love.

And when I was talking earlier about inherent racism being the scourge of humankind, I didn’t mean the weak-willed, self-serving, denial kind of respect of others along the lines of “I’m not racist because I don’t see color” or “they’re the racists”.

No! I’m talking extreme.

We must look upon every human being that we encounter as completely equal. COMPLETELY! No strings. No conditions. Every woman too, is on equal standing, you men and you perverted and misguided women who support such men. If you can’t do that, you are not my friend.

I’m talking seriously about every single person you meet: every person of African descent, every muslim, every Indian, every other kind of Indian, (redskin if you will T****), every hindu, every Chinese, every buddhist. No exceptions. Completely equal to you, yet in actuality, more prone and likely to being superior to you are your fellow men and women. Period. No exceptions. This is how black lives really matter.

If this kind of respect existed many things of noble high-minded ideal would actually work: free trade and democracy for two. When this kind of equality doesn’t exist. all is broken and unworkable.

And know this: I say ‘broken’ and ‘unworkable’ because I mean broken and unworkable. For while a system of racism doesn’t merely require the attitude and assumption of supremacy by whites — and racism is indeed a system and not a proclivity; not a disliking, or a hating with or without an intent to harm where harm is possible; — but a system based on at least the assumption and ‘knowledge’ of the reality that there are inferiors. The “inferiors” in this case don’t ever get a fair shake no matter what steps are made to rectify the system of insanity. As long as there are inferiors, the inferiors get, even with the best wishes and intentions of the (even if default) supremacists, the short end of the stick and come out losers in any and all social interactions where this blatant and soreful lack of true respect resides. “They” are forever condemned by conservative convention to be mired as second or third class. That is racism. (Not the fact that blacks don’t like or tolerate you).

If you get what I’m saying and live your life that way and sincerely try to do something about it, you are my cohort and friend. Of course, you would immediately discard T**** and his Epstein listers. In any free and fair election, in a world of true respect, T**** would lose 100% to 0%, even against a democrat!

That, my friends, is what it takes to be my earthly friend. If not, you aren’t. No matter HOW closely related to me you might be.

But, don’t worry, this is only in the ersatz physical form. In cosmic radiant reality we are already on equal footing, all love and respect.
