Whose Lives Matter

I've been thinking about this for a while. The trolls on all the comment boards talk about BLM and how white Trumplicans care naught about black people.

Well, I concede it's sometimes hard to work up a lot of sympathy about our darker brethren, but some things, as a great man once observed, crowd a man.

Everyone's heard about Cannon Hinnant and how he was casually (and that's the right description) murdered in front of his sisters and left to die. Fake News said little, if anything, but it's been much more a cause celebre on the Interwebz. Likewise, the death toll in Chiraq, home of Mayor Beetlejuice, gets little press. 38 black kids killed so far this year, 7 in the last 2 weeks.

Mayor Tippytoes was renowned for not caring about the deaths of his constituents, particularly the black ones. One might well ask where are the Os on this? Or The Ozarks? We know what Gropin' Joe thinks. More to the point, where is black America? They can't be happy about it. Do they figure this is the price for a place at the table?

Some place. More kids are aborted than brought to term. The leading cause of death for young black males is young black males. You think there has to be a point where the EBT card just isn't worth it. Maybe it is a black thing and we don't understand (if you recall the sweatshirts, etc.), but at what point does your own flesh and blood become unimportant?

There is something of the Einsatzgruppen in this kind of mentality. For those who missed the lecture, Einsatzgruppen were SS units about the size of a Ranger battalion, trained in mass killing techniques. Their job was to go into a Russian village, root out all the Jews, and execute them in as expeditious a manner possible. They made great use of locals who saw the Krauts as liberators in this.

The Einsatzgruppen were, like all SS men, indoctrinated to see Jews as Untermenschen and their job was to be the local Orkin men. Most shrugged it off as part of the job of winning the war, some just gave into a thousand years of blaming the Jews for everything, some compensated by making light of it. Many couldn't get past the fact that, eventually, they'd see someone in their sights who looked like Grossmutter, the girl next door, baby sis, Dad. These groups had the highest substance abuse rates, mental crackup rates, suicides, and "malingering" (avoidance of duty) of anybody's army.

It was the big reason the Krauts had to transition to the gas chambers at places like Auschwitz.

But we don't see the ones who can't deal with it. The people who should care don't. On any level.

Is this one of those Joe Stalin things where “A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic”? Are all these deaths just necessary to swing public opinion in the glorious world socialist revolution, but are meaningless in and of themselves to the people who make a living crying about the oppression of blacks?

The issue seems to me that nobody's life matters to the Dr Evils of the world, or this country. The only thing that counts is the power To be sure, some deaths are sensationalized to create public outrage in some quarters, but those are only for the purpose of moving the Overton Window in a certain direction.

The real tragedy is that all the enablers are numb to it. I know to be a Lefty, you have to go with the program without exception, without question; you have to hate as hard as they tell you to hate.

But where are the ones who see Grossmutter?

Where are the ones who realize if All Lives Do Not Matter, No Lives Matter?

Or will we see them on Election Day?

Not sure I said this right, but I hope I got the point across.
