There should be studies...
How many ICE agents were white? How many agents were not white? How many were in the military? Police? How many isolationists were formerly incarcerated? Which neighborhoods did they grow up in?
I had a dream about working at a college again, and there were signs everywhere saying ICE was going to invade it!
Still chewing!

You would just watch their motherly instincts come to life.

It's really scary. 😱
God, imagine how much the average white moms would cost instantly feel the impulse to act like they love me if I was just an average a****** white guy.

Oh my gosh, the "Back to School" content is hitting differently this particular year...
There was a Kohl's commercial on before this video started playing, and a woman (she's a 'Kohl's Mom' and the actress who played Kimmy Schmidt on that one show) was lecturing us about how kids "just don't walk into school," and I stopped it right there, and I said yes, she's right, they certainly don't, especially not when they're locked away in a concentration camp.

Since I haven't been catering to the opinions of the people with the most purchasing power to buy tickets to my shows recently...
I feel that certain thin white people and maybe others who clearly never feel the need to think very deeply about how other kinds of people are being treated (and particularly when it comes to how the people who are picking their food are being treated) should get more honest about their own personal relationships with food!
My cat just wanted to be fed before her feeding time, and I gave in and I gave her wet food, even though the dry food dispenser was about to go off.

I'm just glad that video is a little bit more light-hearted than the one for "Father Figure!"
Times have changed a lot, in some ways.
In the past, like a hundred years ago or less, people didn't have access to spray cans of waterproof sunblock or long sessions of swimming in chlorinated pools and they also didn't have lots of recipes involving egg whites to browse through on the internet.
I wonder if that's why.
I was wondering why I was getting an itchy rash on my lower calves and then it occured to me that I think it's because I didn't put any waterproof sunblock on them before I went swimming.
I suppose we could all get a lot more mystical...
Yesterday I wanted to add a lot of even more mystical insights to this, but then I just fell asleep and so I haven't been able to add any yet. But nevertheless...
I like when the study is calmer, like when an overworked person feels like actual help is available for example, like the other day, he was muttering, I might have to ask Chicago for help and I said yes, do that, ask Chicago for help, meaning some people who work in Chicago, but then, then the funny thing is, is within a few days, they were able to hire somebody as an independent contractor whose last position was in Chicago, so I said, see, you did get help from Chicago, and now there is calmer energy over there because help is on the way!!??
Anyways, back to the importance of being mystical in troubled times...
I own this author's book and I might reread it.

After all, if I did it in a past life...
I feel that any day now, I will probably be giving birth to another boy who looks white and who can be more successful and more highly valued by this unique society than everyone else. His valuable presence will supersede my own. I cannot wait!
Just a random thought. I felt I should honor it with some words on a screen.
I can't wait to complain more about the culture of Academia being such a sexist and terrible experience in the future.
I am so good!
"As a self-aware product of my Patriarchal White Supremacist Society, I feel that it's very brave of me to care more about the feelings of a talented white man, way more than I care about my own well-being, or my human rights, much less the human rights of the immigrants who feed me, or about how anyone who's not been as valued by the Patriarchal White Supremacist Society is being treated by this current administration, tee-hee!"

It made us laugh. We were on a Geology field trip.
Actually, Portland reminds me of being at a conference that was about helping farm workers in the late 1990s.
That conference was in the Portland area when I was a college student. Several students from our school went down in one car, including a girl whose parents were farmworkers themselves. She might have also done some farmwork actually. Maybe we were in Rebecca's car. And smoke started coming out of the front, so we had to pull over.

Oooh, that really got to me for some reason.
The way we got back up to Seattle after the conference was to go back with some people who were driving a van to Evergreen in Olympia.

I guess social media levels the playing field though, kind of?
So when you were a kid, the people in charge were always men, like the pastor of the church was always a man, but now, if you have social media, you too can become a cult leader with followers and so many likes and a big audience!
It's like the anti "like my post on social media" mentality.
"In Europe in the 1700s, coffeehouses were sources of coffee, but also conversation. As the MIT psychologist Sherry Turkle points out in her 2016 book, Reclaiming Conversation, many people went to coffeehouses specifically to have rich, deep, sometimes even confrontational discussions: She quotes the British essayist and politician Joseph Addison, who wrote in 1714, 'I have taken a particular Care never to be of the same Opinion with the Man I conversed with.'”

There's probably some ICE agents who've been through a lot too.
There's probably ICE agents who have suffered a lot, and they think they're entitled to getting an easy for them job now, and feeling more in power for once, just because they've suffered so much. It's not cool.
Survival mode activated but for what purpose?
If you think you're entitled to act like an imperialist bully because you have suffered in particular ways, there is always someone else in the world who has suffered more than you and who is not acting like an imperialist bully. So no, you're not entitled tagged like an imperialist bully. That's a choice you're making.

Totally trained by Patriarchical Culture to lack compassion for certain types of human beings in our society...
"We don't talk about people like that. We send them away to a rural village where they won't ever be seen or heard from again."
Stay away from those patriarchal mom bullies who got taught to act like they're better than you because they got pregnant and gave birth to a real baby. These people are trained to be highly insensitive, uncaring assholes for the man.
Hardly any of them are acting particularly skilled at caring about what's happening to the least fortunate in society right now. The patriarchy never trained them to care about those kinds of people, did you notice that?
It's getting more and more noticeable. I think it's going to continue getting more and more noticeable as time goes on. And maybe those ways aren't actually serving the fortunate as much as the fortunate think those ways are serving them, so maybe it's time for them to change their ways.
Hey, guess what? That person wasn't God.
The bully was in the pulpit. Acting like a cult leader.
Bullying the women into being subservient to men.
Yeah, that happened a lot, didn't it.
It most certainly goddamn f****** did.
And yes there were Angels helping you, probably.
When people who were total strangers were nice to you in public. But also, maybe it was showing you something else. Hey, this can be normal for you. You don't have to act like you're some underling to a cult leader bully. Total strangers are nicer to you than these goddamn cult leader bullies are, because they just were trained by our patriarchal white supremacy to feel that entitled to be worshipped and put on pedestals, and it's b*******.
Gotta set some boundaries with the cult leaders out there.
Just say no to the cult leaders, because they're highly unlikely to treat you well, and they're going to enlist other people to bully you if you don't act how they want you to act. And they'll feel like this is just normal and what they should be doing with their lives. They are addicted to people fawning over them because that's what they were trained as small children to respect and see as powerful and as a marker of human achievement. So they have to want to heal from that. You're not going to heal that for them if they don't want to heal from it and themselves.
Maybe a higher power can help them.
Maybe they seem selfish, but maybe they also seem like addicts who need help or something. And also how can you help an addict if the addict doesn't want to help themselves? That's why people get very harmed by these kinds of situations.
Yes, maybe it's better to see people as just being addicted to certain ways of coping with reality. Sometimes that means they're addicted to shutting out other people. Sometimes it means they're addicted to acting like houses are more important than human rights.
Sometimes it means they need to find others who have turned on their fawn responses in order to feel better about themselves and act like they're being a successful cult leader because something got inside of them when they were young and they were taught that they are supposed to be a successful cult leader when they grow up.
I don't trust people who got that cult leader mentality inside of them.
Not all of the talented and creative successful people in the world have that training inside of them, but some of them definitely do.
There's a lot of talented people in the world and some people seem to have it all mixed up with being a cult leader or a figure that others worship, and now if they want to avoid any part of themselves, they can tune in to other people worshiping them 24/7. It's all over the Internet. They can always find somebody who's going to say you're the greatest, you're my hero blah blah blah. And they're reliant on it like little children so they can just use that to avoid whatever they want to avoid.
Because that's what f****** cult leaders do. Don't they? They avoid s*** and this is why people have sayings like artists can be monsters and don't confuse the art with the artist. Because some people turn themselves into something like cult leaders who are in an arrested stage of development. Their talents and accomplishments are turning them into someone who has been trained to avoid making deeper changes.
If people can worship you, you easily can tell yourself don't think you have to change. It's unsettling and it feels very unsafe.
Siiiiiigh...
I hope there's some better people who are long-term employees in ICE who will write books about what this was like someday. Like they used to work for ICE back when it was a better type of organization and what they saw when the bad stuff took over. Maybe how they quit because of it. I know how people have a harder time once they start getting mortgages and stuff.

Think of how these things will look in 100 years. Actually less than that. Just a few decades.
If the status quo (in your world) is still just too racist to care about what is happening to certain kinds of human beings, you can still make the effort to figure out how to be better than the status quo you are being influenced by.
How is this actually happening?
It's like something that would happen in a war zone. ICE crashes into a car, abandons an 18-month-old, and strangers take care of the child. And it's not major news, and people just still go about their day, like it's regular life.

I don't feel like going to some people's shows this summer.
I don't feel like going to shows that are being put on by women who have gotten to where they've gotten by making so many deals with patriarchal white supremacy. I don't feel like doing it this summer. Maybe some other summer will be different.
Even women who experience violence themselves will abandon women and girls.
I think it's because they didn't ever really truly heal from their violence. They didn't really get the tools to heal from their violence and then they had to survive and keep on working their goddamn jobs and getting their goddamn paychecks and acquiring their goddamn f****** houses like houses are more important than human beings and human health and everything else, apparently.
Culty churches cranking out freaking enablers of patriarchal white supremacy.
I think my blood relatives were trained to subconsciously and unconditionally hate women and girls because they grow up in a culty sexist church. If you have any sort of problems with violence, they just ditch you. You are abandonable and not what they want to be around. Especially if a white man in your own family committed violence against one of you. And they have very rigid standards for which kinds of women and girls they find acceptable. The women and girls that they find acceptable have to fit into a certain very strict regimented type of personality, and they're constantly treating white men better, like they are the best out of all of humanity. Why, white men are the most violent people in our nation.
I'm talking about some of the most "respectable" arenas, like academia.
These places are filled with people with internalized misogyny issues. They hate women. And they hate the women who have the most reasons to not go along with the "normalized by the Patriarchal culture violence" the most.
Also, that is rather sad to contemplate.
Also, I feel if you are a man and if you have experienced sexual violence that perhaps most other men have not typically experienced as much as most women have experienced, and yet, even if you have experienced that you act like you still feel more inclined to align with men then with female survivors of sexual violence, then it just speaks volumes about how much more you feel supported by the patriarchy than the women survivors of sexual violence typically feel supported by the patriarchy.
And under that was another reminder...
People need to stop blaming "the illegals" for all the sexual violence that happens in this Patriarchal Society all the time. A lot of the violence is perpetuated by white men. Born right here in America, too!

This is happening because of the apathy about racism and sexism which has been baked into our culture.
However, notice that the woman speaking clearly cares.

Do you think it feels good to live in a country where people get treated so much worse or better based on such superficial qualities?
Like there was a time when I had a student who had immigrated here and she felt very miserable about some things and comfortable talking about those things with me. And we talked about much more than just the assignment.
She had a lot of health problems and she always had miscarriages and she was never able to have children of her own. But she married a man who already had children so she was the stepmother.
But she hadn't received adequate healthcare and she felt really bad about her body and she was a bigger person.
And I told her about how there's different kinds of yoga channels online now for bigger sized people.
She cried during our sessions. And then she stopped crying after she let it out and talked to me.
Gosh, pinch me. And these are real people.

I guess you should figure out how to love yourself better.
Like truly, it's probably the self-censorship that you practice that makes you and whatever you think your version of love is behave in such an uncaring, callous, and discriminatory way against others.
Censorship, huh? Well, maybe when some people stop censoring themselves so much, they'll get much better at some other things, too.

Your lack of empathy for others is absolutely f****** atrocious.
Your acquired narcissistic chauvinism and the internalized misogyny that keeps you feeling more able to "fit in" with the cult of Patriarchal White Supremacy is very bad for other human beings to keep on replicating.
So f****** prejudiced, so f****** biased, and so f****** disrespectful.
I just thank God I'm not one of the shallow white guys you constantly fawn over, to the detriment of others. Because you've really been just that brainwashed by Patriarchical White Supremacy.
Do you need a nice, comfortable home, or not? It seems like it's important to you, right?
