Let’s take a step back and remember when someone that cared about us said, “hey be careful, don’t touch the stove…!” I believe despite the abundance of proof that so many want to ignorantly belong or be accepted by the masses, that many choose to possess amnesia; especially ones that were sold as empowering but has had many hidden costs.
How often has it ever truly been beneficial to be part of the majority? Too many of us are clearly choosing our imaginations versus realities. We are surprisingly in 2025 and with the accessibility of so much technology and ease of connection, society shows the brain of many being depleted of personal intelligence towards growth and self–awareness. When social constructs break a people to the core, and effect the future generations as far as the eye can see, you get the results like of modern day America. There’s so many of us that simply refuse to think for ourselves. Hence the ultimate success of AI like Alexa, Google, Siri and so on.
No one needs a Phd in Social Science or Psychology to witness the multiple self-inflicted wounds of just the Black community. As previously stated by Malcolm X, “the country has given us the tools to firmly destroy ourselves“; while the benefactors sit back laughing and collecting the profits of the willful ignorance. For instance, why aren’t we questioning many mainstream narratives about modern feminism, politics, race, OUR government and the selectively–scrupulous media? What if the truth isn’t what you were taught?
I just observed a new video of a young and very talented young lady. Who happens to be the daughter of two famous “celebrities“ I dare not mention, due to how evil and despicable I believe both are as tools of destruction towards the Black community. (One slapped an innocent comedian, and the other committed adultery with her son’s best friend, amongst other despicable things.) This video has the young lady performing a new song, Wait a Minute, which is a beautiful song; however, why was it necessary for someone so talented to be on stage barely wearing clothing (her actual butt cheeks exposed) and what many would consider sex–worker attire. This has been her wardrobe since a pre–teen. Her parents have steadily exploited her and her brother for sexual favors within the entertainment industry. Where has been the public outrage for those kids, now young adults?
The system routinely shows the lacking accountability and protections when you are part of the top percentage of the wealth circuit. Both horrible parents should be underneath a jail for how the once innocent kids were exposed to the dark entertainment industry, now both claim to be Polyamory. Yes, they are intimate with whatever party is interested at the moment. There isn’t any public outrage when the country has paved a thin specific lane for Black success, which in many cases means them selling their souls for a sliver of used money/fame.
There’s enough resources for every man, woman, and child to be wealthy in terms of necessities being met; however, the handful at the top are so insecure and greedy to allow others to gain a step towards financial freedoms. I’m beyond exhausted in witnessing those that look like me, doing the work of W–supremacy. They won’t say a single honest word about the masters that feed them crumbs from the table; but will jump on the band wagon in doubling down on the ignorant public perception of the Black community. What’s socially accepted is those of us that entertain with the best of them, that isn’t questioned.
If you can catch, throw, tackle, dribble, kick, run, sing (while scantly dressed), rap (highlighting, destroying your community or the disrespecting of opposite sex) or dancing, are the accepted forms of Black/minority success and get paid your sliver. If you publicly say “slavery never existed, or it had benefits for everyone“, you might get a sliver. The bigger one is as soon as you get paid or can borrow ignorantly via a credit card, you will spend on everything you believe the opposite looking community will accept you for; all while keeping the wealthy weatherer and you looking stylish and still poor.
What if our families had the opportunity to eliminate one bad decision each? For some it might be walking away from what’s labeled second–wave feminism; utilizing the welfare policies as the carrot to incentivize Black women towards the magical allure of White privileges. Breaking down the already marginalized Black family from the 1960’s, this incentivized single motherhood, by providing benefits (only if the Black father was kicked out of the home aka “Man–in–the–house rule“) that predominantly White Americans have the privilege of utilizing to this very day.
Second–wave feminism, promoted independence from men, which conflicted with traditional family values, especially in the working–class, where economic pressures where already intense; but many saw the opportunity to join in White privilege and didn’t think twice about throwing away the Black father for the illusion of gaining White privileges in life. The genius part of that scam is the very same White women that pushed this insidious plan, were going home to their loving husbands. Doing their part in keeping the status quo in their favor for generations to come. (All while acting with such innocence to this very day)
That made it much easier to implement Mass incarceration, and economic disenfranchisement of Black men, to further fracture the Black family. Remember, I’m an actual feminist and not a buffet selection one. I know 100% didn’t use this as the lying architects intended it for; none–the–less, it has been hypocritical in how easily it has been to not acknowledge the inequality of how it broke the dynamic of the beautiful, yet powerful Black community from the inside.
Find someone aged mid–to late forties and beyond, then ask them about the magical time when a father was able to protect his kids from self–destruction. When the community elders only had to make a request once. When no parent applied to be their children’s best friends. When no one went behind the parent back, without expecting consequences. When a parent never heard their child curse anywhere near them or home. When people didn’t celebrate their child having a child and helping you become a grandparent while in your thirties. Where could our community be if our families stuck together; versus wanting to so desperately be accepted as a darker version of the world’s longest oppressor group, just to be liked, but ultimately just tolerated.
In the film The Matrix, the choice between the two pills is a metaphor for awakening to a reality versus remaining in the comfortable ignorance. The Red pill: Truth, no matter how hard it is. You will wake up and no longer see the illusion of the Matrix (America & Globally). The Blue pill: Blissful ignorance. This will keep you inside the Matrix, where life of hate, White supremacy, racism, corporate corruption/greed, political corruption/greed, sexual exploitation of oneself… will all remain a societal norm and life will stay that way, being a cog on the wheel, within this massive construct of the living lie called Democracy and Freedoms.
A lot of people are aware that the Black family received the “Blue–pill“ growing up: Told certain policies were helping, when ultimately hurting them. Told that certain movements were for everyone, when they mainly served a specific group. Told the system was broken, but not shown how or why. So Red–pilling, in that sense, is like waking to the bigger picture: where power, money, ideology, and control are linked. Symbolically, this choice is about: Questioning the systems and narratives you’ve been taught. Challenging the systems and narratives you’ve been taught. Choosing truth over comfort…. So, are you taking the Blue pill or the Red pill?
