I barely even caught that part about the protests in all the whining about Hispanics that vote for their interests instead of listening to Democrats and becoming the victim. Walk around my middle class neighborhood that has lots of Hispanics on a nice sunny weekend day and find me the racism. It doesn't exist. No one gives a shit about racial stuff. I also noticed when the political signs were out that every single Biden sign at a house that I ever identified the residents of were white.
In the coming years, they will hype up 'racism against Hispanics' in order to make them afraid and obedient servants. Bank on it.
The power of nightmares is strong - just look at how none of us have any love for the right, but those who back it do so because of our fear of the left. With their domination of the mass media, they will be able to make people believe anything, like that over 1000 blacks a year are being killed by the PO-lees.
Though I must say that Hispanics already proved admirably resistant to media lies, considering that some of the stuff Trump said was easy to spin as being anti-them. And still they went out and smashed IDPol.
But they are playing the long game. Most blacks in 2008 believed that Murrica was too raysiss to elect a black man President. When Obama was elected, race relations briefly improved, but the incessant "everyone who opposes him is racist" eventually led to an absolute tanking of race relations. They may just hammer on anti-Hispanic racism until people start believing it anyway. All that is necessary for transforming a lie into the truth is endless repetition, after all.
Yeah, if there's anything I picked up in the last year it was the power of fear. I should have known already how dangerous it was, but at least in my lifetime I don't think we'd ever seen it used on such a large scale. They've used fear to scare people into almost being willing to kill themselves just to save themselves from what they've been told to fear. It's absolutely insane.
The problem isn't fear. The problem is irrational, disingenuous, performative fear.
When LeBron James says black people are being hunted whenever they step out of their homes, he is contributing to an irrational fear of police - a fear that does not align with either statistical data or observable reality.
When a transgender person says that refusing to use his preferred pronouns or denying him entry to the girl's locker room is tantamount to genocide, he is contributing to an irrational fear of his cultural/political enemies.
When a Democrat politician says that a band of unarmed boomers running around the capitol for a few hours while security stands down is an insurrection, and that such terrorism demands action against their political opponents, then that democrat is creating an irrational fear.
But a lot of fear is entirely rational.
The fear that governments are using covid-19 to bypass our rights and secure powers that they will never relinquish? That fear is based in observable reality.
The fear that mass immigration of peoples with higher birthrates, and who do not assimilate, will result in the inevitable transformation of your nation into a fundamentally different one? That fear is based in observable reality.
The fear that your race is under attack by elites using your skin color as a proxy for the middle class they hate, and that a plurality of people from other racial and ethnic groups are happily piling on? Yeah, you can just Google "white people" to get your answer there.
Demonizing fear is stupid. Fear is important. But like any emotion, it can be faked, artificially manufactured, and turned to evil.

If racism does not exist, it will be invented.
