A coworker, black and female, posted on a social network site a personal testament that put down black men and white women all while referring to herself as a black queen. In conversations before, she abhors racism and sexism yet, in one deft post, has committed both. I hate stupid fucking people regardless of race, sex, orientation, creed. There you go, I'm prejudice; I hate stupid fucking people. Truly. If you show me any sign of being stupid, I'll limit anything I have to do with you. I can't help it. I wasn't born this way. It's a learned response. I've learned to hate stupid people from stupid people.

I have to post here for she's a friend/follower/annoyance on other outlets of social disgrace.

I have to expand on this. A white woman dating a black man wrote into a black magazine asking why, as she had noticed, black men wanted to date black men and why black women hated black men and white women for this. The response to her query was that black men did this because white women are easy. Have always been easy. Black women were raised in the church and, thus, was of a higher moral value than slutty white women. Black men are intimidated by black women because they are smarter, better educated, more moral so black men look for more "docile" white women. Probably my favorite quote...

Right, because...

And just to show that there's no hard feelings and his response was to educate and help us understand each other better, the responder ends with this...

That means she has to be black, because a white woman cannot elevate herself to any of that.


Maybe I'm just a whorish dog, but I don't notice skin color anymore. People are people. If you're an attractive, which is subjective anyways, female I take a fancy to you. I do not cast dispersions- well, she's black so she's A, B and C so if I want X, Y, and Z I need to find a white woman, for M,N, and Os I need an Asian woman- I do not base a belief of what one is capable of or how he, she, it will be based on skin tone. THAT is the epitome of racism.

I grow tired of these labels. Fine, use skin tone as a adjective- my coworker is black (actually, she's caramel or mocha)- which helps you pick someone out of a crowd physically, not in any other way. You do know that Charlize Theron is, technically, African American... I mean, what does that term mean? They're not referred to as Asian Americans, I am not a European American (English American?). I am a proponent of the quote from Bulworth (from the movie of the same name): "We've gotta keep fucking each other until we're the same color. I am a fan of diversity. But we need to homogenize just a little, a lot more than we've fooled ourselves we have. Holding on to culture is great but we need to stop defining ourselves by, for the most part, pageantry and customs we have never had ourselves. I am me, right now. You are you, right now. No, there is not a universal standard, equality still exists. But as long as WE keep defining that difference we will never convince the powers that be to change. We've got to change ourselves, cast away misconceptions we have about ourselves.

And have some goddamn humility.

In closing, my coworker is a cunt. Don't be a cunt.
