28. Nobody should be surprised. America was built on racism

The entire existence of the political parties dealt with the slave issue.
I go over the whole history in this old post of mine called A long story about The Southern Strategy.

The Southern Strategy didn't start in the 1960's after the Civil Rights Act got passed.
The Southern Strategy is at the root of the country.
The names of the parties themselves reflect these origins.

Slavery & Subjugation of Africans and the Economic Exploitation therein is how the American system was designed to work.
It's the engine of it all.
There are those who will be equated with Black (the Africans) & treated thusly.
So the pull is to separate from the Black & align with the White so as not to get the treatment Blacks get.
I might be picked on but if I help pick on the Blacks they won't pick on me as much.
How many ostracized ethnic groups have employed this strategy to get higher on the totem pole?
You can start with the Irish but it goes much further as we all know.
Jew could be the new Black. Muslim could be the new Black. Gay could be the new Black.
But whatever is equated with that status gets that treatment & subjugation.

And all because of an old disagreement whether the Fighters for Liberty™ should own slaves or not.
They reached a compromise, of course. 3/5 being the first one.
The Civil War was inevitable & here's the fun part.
The Civil War is not really over.

Officially maybe but Unofficially it has been fought from the very beginnings of this nation & is still being fought today.
The same group still bitter about the Civil War is the same group still bitter about Civil Rights.
Not a coincidence these things have that same 'Civil' name.
And when you see what happens to these young Black boys getting shot down, choked out, beat down, you recognize the schizo nature of this country.
Talking about 'all men are created equal' on one side of the mouth & practicing a society that is the total opposite of that philosophy on the other side.

Hypocrisy was embedded in the nation from day one when Slaveowners ironically talked about Freedom & Liberty.
The fight for what America REALLY stands for continues...
