It is clear to Tubularsock that the ONLY FAIR thing to do is pay reparations to Tubularsock.
You see, Tubularsock was not born into the John D. Rockefeller family.
And THAT is just not fair.
Others that were born into the John D. Rockefeller family got all the money and life style privileges but Tubularsock was left out.
In order to rectify this unfair and unwarranted slight, reparations MUST be paid to Tubularsock!
IT IS THE ONLY FAIR THING TO DO!
If one looks at the history of the John D. Rockefeller family one can see a sustained, collaborative, and consistently biased action of keeping Tubularsock from being put on ANY corporate board of directors of ANY Fortune 500 company. NOT ONE!
Nor has Tubularsock been given ANY memberships into private clubs or the ability to fly about in private jets and helicopters. Let alone visit any private islands or EVEN ride an evaluator to a private penthouse!
No!
Tubularsock had to labor long and hard as a wage slave and treated as an underclass “worker-bee” because TRUE CLASS was denied due to the unfair and non-democratic system of birth!
THIS CAN NOT STAND.
As Tubularsock has always said …….. ‘Just because being born poor and kept down by the work slavery program doesn’t mean that you don’t deserve the gravy train!”
Please don’t sign the petition “REPARATION FOR TUBULARSOCK” but instead send unmarked Franklin’s in a plain rumpled brown lunch bag to:
FUCK THE ROCKEFELLERS
A Tubularsock Charity Project
1300 Standard Oil Way
New World Order, CA 666
Now just hold on a minute! Tubularsock’s White Privilege is being stepped on and there is just no call for it!
Ok. Ripping down Confederate Generals statuary and tossing them into to the dust bin of history is OK with Tubularsock.
But melting down ALL those fucking American Generals and all that statuary with the lowly solider sacrificing to get the fucking imperialist flag to the top of the hill as a symbol of “winning” must be destroyed as well.
Just promoting that shit should be a fraudulent offense with substantial prison time.
And while Tubularsock is at it, lets remove and destroy all that statuary that show all those abolitionists promoting freedom from slavery!
And all those bronze lifeless slaves reaching dramatically for freedom frozen in time does not improve the facts on the ground!
So get busy right now. There is something scary about a society that will spend its money on bronzing the past and not changing it in real time. It is looking and idealizing in the WRONG direction!
Which of course leads us directly to Aunt Jemima.
Aunt Jemima isn’t the old school Aunt Jemima with the “do rag” on her head and a skillet in her hand any more. They (the corporate interests) upgraded Jemima all the way back in 1989! Her label image looks more like Doris Day, a solid white lady!
Get up to date!
Now there is no question that there is a racial stereotype built into Aunt Jemima that carries the idea that Black woman are caretakers and great cooks and great storytellers.
Wow. We all know that those stereotypes are JUST NOT TRUE! Right?
Especially if you spend any time around Black women. They yell at their children, they sit like fat queens on their welfare couches sucking in the government dole, and they argue with their deadbeat husbands constantly. Right? Hmmm.
That may be just a different stereotype which when it comes to any subject, the view always comes from the viewer. And is ALWAYS loaded with the viewer’s beliefs and prejudices. Not very solid in facts as it comes from the eye of the beholder now is it.
But there are some facts that do exist around Aunt Jemima which are fascinating. Some of those facts may have been overlooked. And those facts go like this.
In 1889, Aunt Jemima became a pancake mix spokeswoman for the Peal Milling Company but that Aunt Jemima was based on a minstrel show performance where a white male actor would, dressed as a woman in black face to perform the Aunt Jemima character.
Though popular in Minstrel Shows which at time were horrendously racist this Aunt Jemima rendition didn’t really work as a pancake mix promotional technique.
However after Peal Milling sold to R.T. Davis Milling Company, the new company hired a “real-life former slave” named Nancy Green who for the next 33 years would work as “Aunt Jemima” and would conduct pancake seminars at fairs and travel to towns across America to spread the word about the pancake mix.
Lets ponder that for just a minute. A former BLACK slave was hired for 33 years to act out a part to sell pancake mix.
Employment for 33 years. And a BLACK woman in the 1890’s!
From another point of view, talk about the power of women and feminist freedom rather than “slavery” and this story becomes pretty much a success story.
It is all in the way one wants to views it.
After Quaker Oats bought R.T. Davis Milling Company, which by this time had changed its name to Aunt Jemima Mills Co., there was no real life person “playing” Aunt Jemima for the next decade except for a short time.
Between 1933 to 1935, Anna Robinson played the character for Quaker Oats until she was replaced by Anna Short Harrington.
Anna Short Harrington came from being a sharecropper with her husband and raising five children to being hired by Quaker Oats Co. as the new Aunt Jemima around 1935.
“Chauffeured or flown by jet around the country, Harrington served Aunt Jemima–brand pancake mix at store openings and other public events, living a lifestyle that eluded most blacks and whites. By the time of her death, the former sharecropper owned two homes and lived in an area occupied by the black elite of Syracuse.” (South Carolina Encyclopedia)
Again, a former BLACK sharecropper HIRED for nearly 20 years to act out a part to sell pancake mix.
Employment nearly 20 years. And a BLACK woman in the 1930’s!
It is all in the way you look at Aunt Jemima.
Racial stereotype, or employment opportunity.
In 1989, Quaker Oats updated Aunt Jemima’s look from the “do rag” head gear to a more modern “Doris Day” look.
Using Harrington’s youngest daughter Olivia Hunter as the “new-modern-look” of Aunt Jemima.
And now there is a call to boycott Aunt Jemima products because of the Black Lives Matter movement
position that ahhhh ………. well pretty much a silly waste of energy and direction.
Maybe AUNT WHITE BETTY’S pancake mix would be a better name anyway. Even if it would end black female employment!
Well Tubularsock has been sitting around Tubularsock’s top floor corner office in Tubularsock’s underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland ,CA (see Bunker Tour) and it came pretty much like a flash.
NO LIVES MATTER! Hell, this is the United States of America and we have all been trained from childhood that NO LIVES MATTER, not from words but from deeds!
And besides we are a Capitalistic Country which by definition creates an underclass to do all the work for the ruling (MONEYED) elite!
First one can tell instantly that NO LIVES MATTER when you view the school system. BOTH public and private!
Damn near to the last building, Elementary School Buildings and High School Buildings look EXACTLY like prisons! No really, LOOK!
This is not hyperbolic. THIS IS FACT! Just go look.
( a Tubularsock aside)Just the fact Tubularsock’s old high school had ivy climbing all over its exterior doesn’t mean it was any less a prison as it was a mal maintained building. Both outside and intellectually inside as well!
And the outer “portable buildings” looked more run down trailer park than a intellectual hub of learning.
And our mascot? ……… “The Honkers!”
Named after the Canadian Geese that filled the skies and were murdered by the hunting culture that permeated this rural culture. Dumb fucks all!
Oh yes, nostalgia.
( back to the point)
And like Pavlov’s Dogs the classical conditioning of moving from place to place or subject to subject by the ringing of a bell was implemented so as in time, because the educational SYSTEM is just a holding tank, one “graduates” into the work force where you start just following a new type of BELL where hours = money!
Now this entire illusion is set up around COMPETITION between each other and that competitive edge permeates the entire system and in turn dehumanizing the entire system and IN THERE LIES THE PROBLEM!
NO LIVES MATTER!
We are once again in the mist of another BLACK LIVES MATTER production. What is it, the thousandth time?
And this country is recognizing ONCE AGAIN that Blacks are murdered by cops in this country as easily as going to Walmart for a cheap suit!
And OH MY, we are all concerned. How long has this been going on? And now for the next minute and a half we are ALL concerned AGAIN.
And Tubularsock warns you up front now, taking a knee will wear out that cheap Walmart suit prematurely.
Somehow our retention on this subject is rather retarded …….. hmmmm.
But there are bigger fish to fry here. As well as the over arching systemic racial paradigm.
The REAL question should be ….. why was George Floyd in the position of having to be attempting to even pass counterfeit money to make a living?
Where were the alternative financial opportunities rather than passing counterfeit money?
Just what kind of system has been created that a guy can’t have a job that pays a fair wage so as to participate in the community in a “respectable way”?
And all of this injustice permeates the entire society at different levels and to once again focus all the attention on just one aspect diminishes the power of real massive change that needs to be made NOW!
How many times have we gone through this same place where the following bull shit of real change gets delegated to committees and focus groups and legislative commissions. And EVEN “think tanks” which are pretty close to septic tanks due to the amount of PURE SHIT they hold at any given time.
AND NO REAL CHANGE OCCURS!
Just like the last time around and the time before that and before that and the time …
But ALL the political establishment are all out saying once again that they REALLY care, ad nauseam.
Even the pseudo-Negro Obummer, you know, the guy that allowed Black budding middle class home ownership to collapse in order to save all the big banks.
Yep, now EVEN he is concerned and even said so, maybe from his $11.75 million Martha’s Vineyard Mansion. You know, a real concern for those lessor darkies that weren’t paid off from the big banks for the destruction of a developing Black middle class.
And O’Biden known for thinking shooting looters in the legs to maintain police control is more satisfactory than providing them with decent paying jobs.
Or even still defending his “lock the blacks up crime bill” he promoted when he was in Congress and as Vice President. AND STILL DEFENDS IT!
And oh gosh, Nancy Pelosi even took a knee for the cause ….. and on a mirror polished marble floor that a “Minority” custodian spent the night polishing up that floor for the massa! Damn she’s a senile old bitch!
And Tubularsock just doesn’t want to get started on the gelatinous mass that is formulated into the likes of Mitch and Dump ……….. GOD! What a disgusting thought!
And then there’s the ALL LIVES MATTER which BLACK LIVES MATTER feel demeans their cause and become enraged by the mere mention of such a concept.
But just how STUPID is this!
This is the United States of America you dumb witted moron fucks! NO LIVES MATTER! Get with it. Have you been totally asleep?
Somehow everyone conveniently forgets that Puritan pilgrim John Winthrop’s concept which in his mind’s eye in 1630, while still aboard a ship bound for Massachusetts Bay,
of the “shinning city upon a hill” which becomes the vision of “their” new land and government. With that very charming embroidery on the pillow, “White pseudo Christians ONLY”!
And from that point this NEW LAND was founded upon genocide of the indigenous peoples who just happened to be living on the land upon Winthrop’s arrival. NO LIVES MATTERED!
SLAVERY ……….. NO LIVES MATTERED!
Westward Movement ……….. NO LIVES MATTERED!
Well there is just one bit of deceit in the NO LIVES MATTERED scenario and that is this:
The “classless society” which we have all been taught where everyone is equal …….. isn’t!
And only if you stop and look at it does it become apparent.
The ruling class ……… HAS ALWAYS KEPT THE POWER AND THE CONTROL!
And that ruling class has been traditionally WHITE. And THEY have no plan to change that. Hell, you can bank on it!
So to change THAT is up to ALL OF US!
WE have to band together not as races BUT AS CLASSES.
This is class warfare not race warfare.
And if THE PEOPLE that make up this country would join the current protests and show their disdain for the ROBBERY OF WEALTH from the PEOPLE to the CORPORATIONS that was orchestrated by BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES all along the way real change would happen!
The 2008 Banking rip off and the Covid19 robbery of the people’s money giving us pennies on the dollar SHOULD be enough to get the WHITE people in the streets with the BLACK, BROWN, YELLOW peoples and not leave until each person gets THEIR SHARE OF THE CASH!
Fearing of the PEOPLE scare the rich. Always has!
And it would be simple!
Demand change NOW —- TODAY and if they don’t produce laws in favor of the PEOPLE then the people have the right to BURN IT DOWN TO THE GROUND!
It may be time for THE PEOPLE to do to Washington, DC what we did to Baghdad!
SHOCK AND AWE!
Because U.S. foreign policy has fit our true historical perspective : NO LIVES MATTER!
There are so many discussions and Think Tank papers on how to address massive non-violent protests by the authorities. Or for that matter ANY hostile situation.
And by far the most prevalent view is to deescalate any situation rather than confront it and attempt to “overpower” the confrontation.
Or bottom line NOT TO ESCALATE the confrontation.
Where that technique is used the results are FAR MORE non-violent than the SHOW OF FORCE technique which ALWAYS brings about violence from BOTH sides ending with a CALL FOR MORE protestors coming out to the next protest.
Time and time again this is the way these issues play themselves out.
And sadly because in this current crisis the police in many cities are creating MORE violence and open lawlessness than the protestors which will create a reckoning that will be violent and continuing as time goes on.
A growing direction of escalation and greater violence by ALL can only shift with intelligent leadership at the local level because on the national level the bar for intelligent thinking rests rather low with an Orange Creation with a small penis which attempts to wave it around causing his bone spurs to become inflamed and keeping him from the battle.
But he is willing to send others in his place to enforce his dream of grandeur spending his time scared and sniveling in the White House Bunker dreaming of fucking Ivanka while she is holding the Holy Bible! Go figure.
Is this REALLY the height of leadership in the United States of America?
Are Americans so asleep that they really believe that their only choice for
President are these two TOTAL FUCKING DEVIATES?
You have Trump which is AT HIS BEST, a pussy grabbing, totally corrupt conman, a drooling orange colored blob of gelatinous fat. With a brainless lunatic propensity to go off the deep end at the slightest indication that people aren’t paying attention to him.
You have Biden which is AT HIS BEST, a pussy grabbing, creepy dirty old man who grabs and fondles women and little girls right in public sticking his nose in their hair and ears and feeling them up in that dirty old grandpa style.
As well as stating that he “love little children to sit in his lap”! Sure, Joe.
And Joe has the added qualification of suffering from dementia. Right in front of your eyes!
This is IT? This is what YOU want to bank your future on not even to mention your children’s future!
Are you completely fucking NUTS!
At this point in time,
WE AS A NATION HAVE NO ONE THAT HAS THE MORAL, INTELLIGENT, DYNAMIC LEADERSHIP THAT WE CAN TURN TO WITH HOPE AND COMMITMENT TO LEAD US AS A NATION.
NO ONE!
NO ONE! GET IT?
The Democraps and the Republican’ts are bought and sold by
corporate controllers and the parties do as they are directed.
Proof?
Just look at who got bailed out in 2008’s banking/ housing crisis.
Just look who just got bailed out under this current crisis.
AND LOOK AT WHO VOTED TO GIVE THE CORPORATIONS, THE BANKS, & WALL STREET THE MONEY AND GIVE YOU SHIT!
Overwhelmingly BOTH Political Parties!
Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell BOTH PIGS AT THE TROUGH!
And you fellow citizen,
got jack shit!
Trillions for the moneyed elite Hundreds for you.
It is called highway robbery and what do we do with highway robbers?
Well, Tubularsock is calling for PUBLIC HANGING
of Pelosi and McConnell in the public square as a first step!
