Blinded By The White: Slavery - The Game!

Not all of us folks are stupid. Sometimes, I'm a bit embarrassed by how clueless we are to our own offensive behavior. We will practically bust in the door of the rest of the world and take a crap on their dinner table and the say "what's wrong?" with true puzzlement.

I'm not trying to be a killjoy, but sometimes the eyes of Caucasia are so blinded to there own offensive actions that I can't believe in evolution. I know I'm going to get the moaning and the groaning and the "white anger." I always get that from my peeps.


I did when in high school, a friend (let's call him Spence) told me he thought it would be really funny if he dressed up as an SS trooper for Halloween. Of course Spence also told me his Dad lost his job to a Jew. I was amazed his father took the time to find out the religious and cultural background of the man who was replacing him.

As it turns out though, after Spence regaled me with a good dose of his father's world philosophy, I had a good hunch that "the Jew" could do something Spence's dad couldn't, process thoughts in logical order, understand cause and effect or perhaps read above a fourth grade level.

Another example occurs in the Micheal Moore's 1980's hit documentary "Roger & Me," when the wealthy folks of Genesee County hold a ball in the brand new prison, the night before it opened up for business.

Turns out, the prison is needed to house the many ex-GM workers who had tried a hand at surviving by five finger discount, desperation and brutal force after their good jobs at GM disappeared. I remember the vision of rich, suburban folks, dressed up and playing "cops and robbers" in real prison cells, that would soon hold broken hopeless members of the post industrialist workforce .

No wonder the French Revolution had guillotines.

Here comes another great one for the list. It's a Facebook application called "Owned."

Here's the pitch: you buy , sell and possess other people, in a fun simulation of tongue and cheek slave commerce:"Own Your Friends! Give Human Gifts! Put yourself on the market and find out how much you're worth!"

"Give Human Gifts" - That is just dandy.

What a fun! An inoffensive game sensation.
I wonder if white folks will invite their black friends to play?

The mass of the clueless moves slowly towards the edge, dragging us all down with it.

Yeah sure the world hates us for our Freedom..
