"BEEF" And A24 A Quick Take

So I watched "Beef" on Netflix as it was trending #1 in the US and it was actually a good watch although set in US Asian culture (Korean/Japanese Americans) it was well written and overall a pretty good story. While watching I was wonder does A24 stand for "Asian 24" 🤔🧐 as they won the oscar for "Everything Everywhere All at Once" the one glaring thing that I got from this as I was watching was that even though they had a lesbian couple that showed up way later in the episodes they didn't force any graphic homosexuality between men or women into the production i think the only Black Man i saw in the entire production was a gay dude who didn't have any lines.....not thar I need to see any of that but it's interesting when I watch so called Black productions whether it's tv or movie that "scene" just has to be there. Still a good watch just a quick take. We'll be seeing more from A24 since they one the so many OSCARS Hollywood is pushing for more Asians on screen so it's best if we start supporting our Black Creatives /Artist/Writers/Directors. They Love our Black culture while hating who we are.

Did You Know Kellog's Founder Was An Eugenist??

When people think of eugenics, what most often comes to mind is Hitler’s persecution of Jews during World War II, but the American eugenics movement began significantly before, and served as a major inspiration. Modern eugenics emerged in the 1880s, with the goal of improving people’s genetic character by promoting reproduction by those with suitable characteristics and keeping those deemed unfit from reproducing, warning the unfit would otherwise bring down the entire world.​

Experts at the time decided that the largest threat was “feeble minded” individuals, which included those with low intelligence, immoral behavioral habits, mental health conditions, and more. They supposedly were increasing in number rapidly, leading 12 states to pass sterilization laws by 1913.​

In Michigan, Dr. John Harvey Kellogg was a leader of the eugenics movement, perceiving it as the only way to save society from disaster. To promote this, Kellogg organized the First National Conference on Race Betterment, held from January 8-12, 1913, at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, which included more than 400 eugenics experts from across the country.​

To encourage public involvement and support, the conference held “mental and physical perfection contests,” where children and babies were given tests and evaluations for rankings, with the winners receiving medals. The schedule was also published in newspapers, and thousands attended the conference.​

The core of the conference was a presentation by Harry Laughlin titled “Calculations on the Working Out of a Proposed Program of Sterilization.” He claimed that 15 million sterilizations would be necessary to save the country, as the lowest ten percent of humans were so meagerly endowed that their reproduction constituted a social menace. Laughlin described specific strategies for effective programs, since current regulations were too weak.​

To further inspire the public to take action on preventing the reproduction of the “feeble minded,” Kellogg wrote a paper titled “Needed – a New Human Race,” where he encouraged all people to become involved in eugenics. This included positive eugenics, where citizens deemed to have beneficial traits were encouraged to have large families.​

Kellogg’s eugenics support impacted education in Michigan. Colleges began to offer or even require eugenics courses for students. Due largely to close proximity, Battle Creek College defined race betterment through eugenics as the primary and essential job of the college, and all students and staff were expected to support and promote it.​

Michigan was the first state to propose eugenical sterilization in 1897, although the first sterilization law in the state did not pass until 1923. This law, upheld in court multiple times, led to 3,786 officially documented sterilizations. Seventy-six percent of these were on people deemed mentally deficient, 11% were people considered insane, and the other 13% were sexual deviants, people with epilepsy, or “moral degenerates.” African Americans and poor people were the main targets.​

In the 1920s, selective breeding through eugenics became an American craze, based largely on the concept of race suicide. This theory posited that middle and upper class white people—the perceived superior race—were being outbred by all other races, and would die out if action was not taken.​

In 1924 eugenics reached the Supreme Court with the case Buck v. Bell. Carrie Buck was the perfect subject, a member of a family with a large number of “feeble minded” individuals who had given birth out of wedlock. Almost all the evidence presented by the prosecution was false, and the defense did not make any effort to challenge the charges made; the goal of all parties involved was for a eugenical sterilization act to be passed. Virginia’s Ecumenical Sterilization Act was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court by a vote of 8-1. The decision relied heavily on Jacobson v. Massachusetts, a case ruling that children needed a smallpox vaccine, with claims that sterilization was a similar issue—it was necessary to protect the health of the country.​

Carrie Buck became the first person sterilized in Virginia under the new law. Many states added or updated eugenic sterilization laws after the case, and by January 1935, 21,539 forced sterilizations had occurred across the country. Thirty-three states had statutes at some point in time that overall led to more than 60,000 involuntary sterilizations. The main force ending the movement in America was the association with Nazi Germany. Madison Grant, a prominent American eugenics supporter, even received a letter from Hitler, in which he proclaimed Grant’s book The Passing of the Great Race to be his bible. America did not want to be linked to the Nazis, so support for eugenics waned. However, the Buck v. Bell decision has never actually been overturned, and involuntary sterilizations still occur on rare instances, and they are perfectly legal. Understanding the history of eugenics in the United States is important, and can help us be more vigilant in ensuring that a similar movement does not start in the future.​

5 Star Is Going To Wear With Candace Matthews

THE HOOD CNN/ I CAME FOR BATTLE AND I'M SMASHING THE GAS/ LOOK AT THIS

I agree with 5 Star. He's unapologetic and goes at anyone he believes us doing wrong by the people of Houston. Candace has always been suspect to me and Monroe has been on her taco. Now he's saying F peace, I want war.

Also, listen to the person on the phone. These are the people we have in office, on our city councils, patrolling or streets, getting our donations etc. The boule buffer class is in full affect!

Random Thought: I Notice My Reality Now Drives My Decision Making In My RPG Adventures

I started a new game of Skyrim today and it made me think about my RPG decision-making. I realized, when I first started playing Skyrim, way back on PS3, I always sided with the Stormcloaks even though they were prejudice against non-Nords; because at the end of the day, I felt some kind of way about the Empire telling them what Gods they could and couldn't worship. Freedom of Religion is something I strongly stand by. So I said Fuck The Imperials.

However, after a reality TV Actor was appointed to the Presidency in 2016, I started siding with the Imperials, because the Stormcloaks started to remind me of his supporters and Ulfric started to remind me of the newly appointed president. I can disagree with a person's politics up until that person's politics requires my life and the quality of it be diminished in any capacity. So then I said Fuck The Stormcloaks.

But now, here I am, a year removed from my most recent playthrough, and I'm back to siding with the Stormcloaks, again.
Racist as they may be, the Imperials are forcing the people to accept another group's criteria of what a god is or isn't as normal. All because this other group, the Thalmor, are up in their feelings about who should and shouldn't be considered a Divine. Y'know like how these perverts today, are trying to tell other people what the criteria of Woman and Man are, and letting these people have access to women's restrooms, and sports, and accepting drag shows as "family functions". Meanwhile the government allows it, because they're too afraid to fight back. So again I return to Fuck The Imperials.

Now clearly neither group is good. And really neither group should be supported in real life, but this is a video game and not real life and in that context, I find it a bit interesting that at any given moment, BOTH sides at different points in my life with different events transpiring managed to win the "Lesser of Two Evils" argument for me. For what it's worth, that's....weirdly, pretty neat and oddly impressive given how old this game is. In addition to my many hang-ups with Bethesda, I give them credit for, haphazardly, creating that kind of dichotomy.

Alrighty, that's my thought to ponder for today. Everybody enjoy the rest of your Sunday and Have a great upcoming week this week.

The Racist Focus On Chicago

It’s blatantly COMICAL, that these people focus on Chicago crime, while Albuquerque New Mexico is the murder capital of the US. Even more hilarious is the fact that New Mexico (in ALL government areas) is run by a greasy criminal mafia (see my next post for further detail).

Okay, But....

then DO NOT 1. ask to be protected when white supremacy gets on that ass. 2. There are other Haitians who are down, and on code, so its cap. 3. don't work AGAINST black empowerment (reparations, etc) and align with the white man. 4. do NOT ask any Blacks in America to fight for you to be able to come since you clearly are not an ally.

This shyt pisses me off. STOP speaking for all Haitians. YOU don't want fight. But don't make excuses. Be you, foreign descended, FBA coon, whatever, black folks who live and eat being black in America, making excuses. GTFOH. I wish I knew who was who so I can know who not to f*ck with.
