"Fear of a Black Planet."

Conservative folks in the majority population like to accuse Negroes of playing the victim card. (Just read the anonymous comments on this blog after any post that deals with politics) But honestly, is there anyone playing the victim card any better than conservative white males these days? They have become so good at it that some of them have actually started buying into this piece of false narrative. And, of course, the media arm of the movement, FOX NEWS,has decided that it is good for ratings to   feature the scary black monsters roaming our streets.

"A while back Bill O’Reilly, the most watched TV personality on Fox News, ran a series of stories on what he suggests is a “racially motivated” attack on two white journalists in Norfolk, Virginia that he claimed was covered up by the local press. As Buzzfeed’s McKay Coppins details, the facts reveal a different reality: a rock was thrown at a car, the occupants had an argument with a group of men and a fight ensued. The reporters were not severely injured. Although an unfortunate incident in a city that is struggling with violent crime, it was neither particularly noteworthy or an anomaly. In fact, the newspaper for which the journalists worked thought the event was a non-story. This did not deter Bill O’Reilly. He could frame the story as part of a national race war by introducing one fact--the victims of the assault were white and the perpetrators were black.

The National Review’s Thomas Sowell legitimated this narrative of a race war against whites in a column which circulated widely throughout the Right-wing media and blogosphere. There he listed a series of such assaults in major cities such as Chicago, New York, Cleveland, and Los Angeles, which involved groups of young black people committing random assaults on pedestrians, robbing people of their cell phones and Ipods, and fighting on beaches and in malls...

"...As Sowell observes,”What the authorities and the media seem determined to suppress is that the hoodlum elements in many ghettoes launch coordinated attacks on whites in public places.” Apparently, in the conservative imagination there is a nationwide plot and a scheme to silence white pain and anger as they are made the targets of systematic, brutal, anti-white racism.

The Conservative media’s race war narrative falls apart when one encounters the facts. In an effort to stir up white anxiety, these stories ignore that violent crime in the United States has been declining for decades. Oftentimes, these mob attacks are either random street crimes or actually a byproduct of long standing feuds.." [Source] (h/t Mike)

Isn't it ironic how this fear of a black planet got amped up after the election of a beige president? It's as if it opened their eyes to the realization that, if not checked, the Negro could actually gain some real institutional power in America.   

Of course creating fear in the hearts of the majority population by making the Negro some type of monster to be feared is nothing new. Various groups used it quite effectively in the past to terrorize blacks folks. Nothing has changed. We just have a different name for those who would terrorize and they have become more sophisticated with their terror tactics.

 "Up through the first half of the 20th century, The New York Times featured many news items about “giant negroes” who would attack police, any innocent white people nearby, and have to be brought down by overwhelming police violence. In an eerie foreshadowing of the conservative media at present, The New York Times archive also contains stories with headlines such as the following: “Mobs of Blacks Retaliate for Riots”; “Negro Mob Terrorizing the Citizens of Jacksonville”; “Negro Mob in South Shouts for Lynching”; and “Negro Mob Killed Sheriff.”    

Yes, we get it. It's why a certain vigilante in Central Florida can always count on online donations and support from certain people. He took out one of the "giant Negroes". Stop me if you have heard this one before: "Why is that man in jail? He deserves a medal."  

 "The conservative media’s pandering to fears of black violence is a sophisticated effort. The race war must be brought home to predominantly white areas. Places like Iowa and Wisconsin do not have large populations of black people; but in the conservative media, this is no protection from the race war apparently being waged against white Americans. The Daily Caller and other conservative websites repeatedly featured coverage of what was labeled as “beat whitey night” a state fair in Iowa. The conservative media doubled down on their “white folks imperiled even in Red State rural America” meme by giving extensive coverage to how white people were ambushed and beaten at a similar event in Wisconsin."

Now most of these white folks who fear the black planet will see black folks mostly on television and in movies throughout their lives. These are not people who travel much or get outside of their comfort zone. They don't interact with you Negroes on a regular basis. The one who calls himself their president is the one they hate the most. Because he always appears to them from a position of power. To them, he is the most dangerous Negro of all.
