blkthinking (2K)Blame the Black Intellect:
The New Oppression Strategy

Excuse me for a moment but I must have your complete attention. It is imperative that you know what tactics the white elite in America are devising for the future oppression of you and your children. All Black-Americans regardless of social status, income or educational level, and political or religious affiliation must take this study into consideration.

Many books and scholarly publications are beginning to exalt the IQ factor as a means of partitioning the races (mainly Black and white) for the purpose of segregating the classes based on economic and social success. From professors in institutions of higher learning to elementary school teachers, this new theory of Blacks being intellectually inferior to whites is making news and setting new curricula standards around the country.

Notice the pattern here; first, there was the physical binding of the first Africans to arrive here, who were freed 300 years later under the pressure of humanitarian reasons. Second, Blacks were held back from advancement by man-made, Jim Crow laws mainly to slow our progress and give white Americans the first pieces of the American pie.

The physical bondage ended by a physical means, the civil war between the two factions of American rule. The second bondage ended based on a legal note, once realized that all people should have equal rights according to their own Constitution. After the legal means ended and they were pressed hard for some other way to slow our progression, some institutionally bred scholars decided to come at it another way, which is based on an intellectual means.

Notice the pattern: physical, legal, and now intellectual. The way the intellectual strategy works is that it 1) indoctrinates the white mind to believe that they are more intellectually superior to Blacks - which they teach their children from innocently proclaimed scientific studies, 2) disillusions Blacks into believing they are intellectually inferior. If they can convince some Blacks that it may be possible for some race to be intellectually superior to another, then that means that the Blacks who believe it will lend themselves to second hand treatment.

For example, if your parents told you over and over that you are stupid and will never amount to anything, psychologist reveal that at some point you will begin to believe that you are stupid and you never will amount to anything. Another example is if you accept the suggested fact that you are not good at whatever job you do, your motivation for that job will subside and you will give over your responsibilities to another. In other words, you will "give up too easily."

Now think about it. If you believe that someone else can perform the job you have been doing better than you, or if you believe that the sibling your parents favored is better than you, if the other succeeds and you do not, your parents or supervisor could easily tell you that it is not anyone's fault but your own, simply because you are not naturally capable of doing better than the other.

A better, more real scenario would be thus: if whites can make Blacks believe that they are slightly less intelligent than whites - because of some scientific evidence of so-called fact - and you believe it, then if you do not succeed in life or acquire as much as them and remain below poverty or live substandard, they will ever so innocently proclaim that it is because you are less capable. This is the concept behind the theory that if Blacks are not successful it is their own fault.

There is a thin line between what the economic status of Black-America is and the reasons we are where we are in economic status. The task of white America is to get us to believe that Blacks who live in poverty are there because they are not capable of or willing to do better, however, this is very far from the truth. The truth is Blacks are where they are for social reasons - the reason we have always been there - because whites are prejudice and discriminatory, and it seems that will never change.

Scholars have very subtlety used some type of new age psychology on society to make people believe that Blacks are in poverty because we can do no better - mainly because they have "scientifically proven" that intellect is the key to prosperity and because we are supposedly less intellectual than whites then we cannot do better economically than they. It is a deceptive trick and no Black person should ever fall for it.

The first thing that Blacks must not believe is that they or any other Blacks in the Black race or as a whole are intellectually inferior to whites. Never, ever allow no white or especially Black (Tom) person tell you that it is possible that you are inferior to whites intellectually. This is a huge scientific error. Intellect can only be measured on an individual basis and never on a collective basis. The same goes for athletic ability - and if they try to use the "athletic argument" for racial difference by giving the physical area to Blacks, ignore it. It could never stand in a court of law so it cannot stand in an argument.

Next, no Black person should ever believe that the economic situation of Blacks is because of their own failures. This may be true for individuals because anyone can be economically ruined if they do nothing to advance themselves, regardless of race. However, Blacks as a whole in economic decay could never be a collective effort (or ineffort) because every individual has their own definition of success in mind.

There are millions of Blacks who thrive daily to improve themselves. Very rarely does one meet a person, any person who does not want anything for themselves and who does not try to accomplish something. The problem is a collective one, however, when it comes to discrimination. Blacks are lumped as one in the eyes of banking institutions, credit card agencies, and the legal system, and none of these things has anything to do with intellect, but has everything to do with racism.

Understand that if whites can convince some Blacks to believe that they are the reason for their own problems then they can convince them that that reason is because of low intellect, and vise-versa. If they can convince Blacks that they have low intellect then they can convince them that that is why they are in poverty.

Society is attempting to deny any responsibility for the poor in this country (the poor meaning Blacks) because this country is becoming more class conscious each day in favor of the rich; they are turning the tables and pointing the fingers at Blacks instead of the racial and class discrimination that continues to hinder Black-America.

The sad part is that there are thousands of Blacks who believe that low-income Blacks are the reason for their own low economic levels because there is supposedly too much opportunity in this country for anyone to be without. However, this may be true to an extent, but the hidden truth is that no form of media will tell any other side of the story but the one they want America to hear, and that story is that they will no longer accept any responsibility for the poor in this country. They are making the poor think that they themselves are the reason they are poor.

Using intellect to do this is a clever scheme because if you can doubt yourself then you can easily blame yourself. They are using the tactics of doubt to implant the illusion of incompetence and self-condemnation into the minds of Blacks by using the intelligence strategy. This is an old trick but is now used in a very intellectual form in today's society.

Once again, the new strategy for oppression is to make Blacks first believe they are intellectually inferior to whites by scientific standards so that Blacks can position their own selves in society at a lower level than whites. This way, when Blacks start seeing they are actual lower than whites they will think it is because of their intellect instead of seeing it for what it really is, which is the new form of racism. The reason anyone would not see this strategy for what it really is because it has seeped into their thought process and has begun to take hold.

Thank you for your attention and please comment on this if you feel this article is in some error of logic. The author would be happy to debate you on this subject.
