A Radical Reset
Our Republic has been converted into a democracy which is just another name for mob rule. The mob is getting what it wants, to paraphrase H.L. Mencken, good and hard. One day soon, the entire edifice is going to collapse under its own weight and what takes its place historically will be tyranny. A Radical Reset is the alternative and the system is called Antipolitism. It calls for a new republic based upon merit and not ambition. No parties, no money in politics, no careers in politics, and only serving the public good.
A Radical Reset
Courageous Conversations: Breaking Silence on Urban Culture
The cultural decay of urban America demands our honest attention. This raw, unfiltered conversation tackles the systematic destruction of the nuclear family and its devastating consequences across communities—particularly in urban centers.
Starting with a viral incident in Cincinnati, we examine how decades of well-intentioned but catastrophic welfare policies have transformed poverty from a temporary hardship into a subsidized state of permanence. Since the 1960s, we've witnessed the collapse of two-parent households from 80% to just 20% in some communities, creating generations raised without crucial boundaries and guidance.
Most striking is the counterintuitive reality that during the Great Depression, crime rates actually decreased across all demographics despite extreme economic hardship. Why? Because families remained intact, pulling together through adversity rather than fracturing under it. This reveals a profound truth: poverty itself doesn't cause social dysfunction—the breakdown of family structure does.
The absence of fathers creates ripple effects through all aspects of child development. Young men grow up without essential boundaries, while young women often seek validation in unhealthy ways, perpetuating cycles of early parenthood. Meanwhile, popular culture has shifted from celebrations of love and resilience to glorifications of dysfunction, creating a toxic feedback loop affecting youth across all backgrounds.
The path forward requires courage—speaking honestly about cultural issues while distinguishing between race and destructive cultural patterns that can affect anyone. Real compassion means restoring personal agency by phasing out programs that subsidize family breakdown, rebuilding cultures that value responsibility, and reintroducing the concept of healthy shame as a social regulator.

Happy Monday everybody. It's a little late in the day for me to be doing this, but I just wanted to think about it as the day went on, because I'm going to touch on some touchy areas. Touch on some touchy areas Was that redundant A little bit. Anyway, we're going to talk today. We're going to discuss. Where do I want to begin this discussion? I do this all extemporaneously, so now I'm reorganizing my thoughts In Cincinnati today. Let's start with an event that kicked off my thought process.
Speaker 1:In Cincinnati today, or I think it was yesterday evening, a mob beat the living shit out of a couple, a man and a woman, beat them nearly to death and it was all caught on video and it's all gone viral and it's getting only peripheral play in the media, in other words, only non-traditional sources. To their credit, news Nation has been running with it, but ABC, nbc, cbs if they ran it, it was in passing. And then no one's talking about the obvious here, and this is why I had to think about whether I was going to discuss this today. But I think I can discuss this without being accused of being a racist, which is the line I'm going to walk right up against. So just stay with me here. The mob was black and the couple was white, and you know, that's why you're not going to hear a lot more about it beyond today, and I don't want to get into. I don't want to get. What do I want to say? I do want to get into the reasons why the reasons it is not important why the mob was attacking the couple, because in no other scenario would you see a mob doing this on an American street anywhere, and they're debating what to do about it, which is just beyond my grasp. So, this brought to mind, every time I see something like this, I don't want to get caught in the weeds of discussing this particular event over and over.
Speaker 1:You see where I'm going to go with this. I'm going to talk about urban black culture and the complete and total destruction of that culture that's taken place and the cancer that it's become and what we have to do about it. So look, black people make up 13% of the population of the United States. They commit 55% of the crimes. Now I want to, before I get into this discussion, okay, and I'm going to relate a lot of my own personal experiences in prison I want to make this very, very clear of who I'm talking about here. I want to make this line as hard and drawn in the sand well, not even in the sand. I want to put a brick wall between me and racism. So listen to me carefully.
Speaker 1:Half of black people in this country live middle class to wealthy. This is not who I'm talking about. I'm not talking about the approximately 20 million americans, black americans who know exactly how the system works, play by the rules, participate in the culture, have lots of friends cross-racially. They, they're normal. I don't even want to get into adjectives, what's you know, normal people. That's denigrating, really. They're just people, like everybody else. Most people are just people.
Speaker 1:One of the reasons that, in anti-politism, I make it that the top third of income earners are who are eligible to be selected in the lottery process is specifically because when someone has worked their way up regardless of how they did it, whether it's through the business, whether it's through a profession and got into the top third of income earners, they could only have done that if they understood how the culture worked and played by the rules of the culture. Therefore, they are mature and that's why I also said a minimum age. They've reached an age and a maturity and a level of success that breeds commonality of values, and values are what's wrong with this country At its root. How we spent ourself into $37, $38 trillion in what we call reported debt, but really, if you include Social Security and Medicare, there's 100 trillion more at least. How we did this is a complete breakdown in culture. By making voting universal and allowing everybody to vote, we encourage the culture where basically those of us who know how the game plays this is going to be.
Speaker 1:You know, this is either going to be a brilliant or a stupid metaphor. I feel like we're all a bunch of elephants and we keep voting for the lions to predate upon us. You know it's like everyone's afraid to say it out loud, but you know, let's talk about what's really going on here. We're going to have to say the quiet part out loud. We're going to have to start facing what's wrong in our culture, because if we don't have an honest appraisal of what the problem is in the first place, then coming up with a plan to deal with it is not going to be possible. I'm going to take a drink of water here real quick. Notice that I said a plan to deal with it. There are no solutions to anything. As Thomas Sowell so famously said, there are no solutions, only trade-offs. But let's talk about what's going on here.
Speaker 1:What's happened is beginning in the early 1960s, when Lyndon Johnson decided, or the mid-1960s, that he was going to cure poverty by throwing money at it. He didn't appreciate that. What he did is rob the entire black community of all agency. And then in came the race hustlers, the people who, after the death of Martin Luther King he was an exceptional man in a situation. But the movement itself, the civil rights movement, has become a caricature of nothing more than race-baiting and victimhood ideology that has nuclear family by subsidizing single childbirth through welfare. We have a toxic brew of victimhood and irresponsibility and subsidization of horrible behavior and poisonous rhetoric and victimhood. And then we have the cowardice of all the other racial communities, okay, but in particular the white community, the sheer cowardice of not standing up to say loud and clear none of us own slaves, none of you were slaves. Shut the fuck up. Okay, the legacy of slavery is not a fact, it's not even, it's just an idea. It's a those that pull the cart, not right in it, but they're cowed, as most white people are cowed, and frightened to say out in the open what is blatantly obvious, which is urban black culture is toxic, and the effects that it's had on the broader culture across the board.
Speaker 1:So as single parenthood, the, the infection of subsidization of single parent families that started in the black community and has now destroyed the black nuclear family for all intents and purposes. In 1960, 80% of black children were born into two parent families. Today, the number is exactly reversed Only 20% of black children are born into two parent families. And let me tell you what that breeds, my friends. That breeds a complete and total lack of boundaries, because it's the father that smacks the kid when he needs to be smacked, in particular young men. And it's the father who turns to the daughter and says, when she comes home crying one day because someone didn't say she was pretty, says you walk on water. In my eyes you have nothing but value. Do not listen to this, do not take this to heart. You are a wonderful and strong young woman. That's the role of the father. And when you take the father out of it, mothers I know there are plenty of single mothers that tell their daughters that they're strong women, but it just doesn't resonate, it just doesn't work. I'm sorry. There's a biology to it. Young girls are deeply, deeply affected by their fathers, and it's anyone who's raised I have sons and daughters Anyone who's raised children of both genders know this. Okay. Children of both genders know this, okay. It's just, it's so important that the father drills into the daughter every day her value and it's so important that the father to the son shows him, shows him, love but sets hard boundaries Okay, including an occasional smack because I'm sorry.
Speaker 1:An occasional smack because I'm sorry. That's how men convey displeasure. Sometimes it gets a little physical. We have gotten and I'm not saying go beat up your children, don't seize on that. I can just see this coming back to haunt me when I'm in the congressional campaign. That's not what I'm saying. That's not what I'm saying. Everyone understands the difference of you know, if you were and here's where we get into the people are going to troll for offense I'm going to say, every now and then you got to give the kid a little smack.
Speaker 1:And when I say smack, what I'm envisioning is you know you're. You're a teenager, you know you don't spank teenage children. You punish, but occasionally they'll say something stupid and you reach across and you whack them across the back of the head and you say what the fuck was that? And you know what? There's nothing wrong with that. And when I say whack them across the back of the head, I mean a slap, not a punch, not a closed fist, a what the fuck was that coming out of your mouth. Every now and then, especially young men needs that and it needs to be talked to the way I just did as I was talking to you. I needs that and it needs to be talked to the way I just did as I was talking to you. I was, I was cosplaying Is that what they call that? Anyway, um, I probably got that completely wrong. That probably means something negative and I just messed it up cause I'm such a boomer, but anyway, um, within the black community and I saw this in prison all the time and this, this mob, um, that beat up this. As I was watching the video of them beating the shit out of this couple, it just took me right back to prison. I've seen this a million times.
Speaker 1:There's no boundary or shame in urban black culture. Neither thing exists. The young black men see no boundary. They question all authority. They get mad at every little thing. The women, too authority. They get mad at every little thing. The women too. Carnival cruise lines, as we speak, fact check me if you think I'm making this up is having a big problem because they do low price cruising and they've really lowered prices to try to open it up and expand their market. They've attracted an awful lot of urban blacks to come take these cruises and it's turned into fights on the ships and I'm talking not once or twice and also in the terminals, and as often as not it's women. And how does this happen? No father at home, no father at home, no role modeling of any kind of limits whatsoever, mixed with a toxic brew of how dare you question me? I'm a professional victim. I'm in the position I'm in because I was placed here by the white people and everybody else and I have no agency over myself. And this is urban black culture. Sorry, I'm a little dry mouth today. Anyway, what do we do about it? And look, you want to take that as racist and urban black culture.
Speaker 1:Because of music in particular, and because black culture has such a huge influence on popular culture and it has the influence was hugely positive until, frankly, hip-hop came along. I mean, all of us who grew up in the years of early rock and roll knew. Then you know who the black stars were and the enormous debt and how rock and roll was built on it and jazz and the only American music form that's native. It was a black music form and there's nothing but great things to be said about those music forms. But when you get into hip-hop and they start with people that don't sing, don't write music, don't play an instrument and come up with poems talking about misogyny and killing police, there's a problem in the culture and we ignored it for way, way too long. The line must be drawn in the sand, okay, and I'm talking the sand between the decent and the indecent, not between black and white, the decent and the indecent. But we must make it possible to recreate the black nuclear family so that black people can claw their way back into decency.
Speaker 1:Urban black I'm talking about the urban black population that has become so incredibly decadent and you know it's not just one or two people. They elected Mayor Johnson in Chicago. It wasn't a big secret what he was going to do. Yes, last weekend, as I'm speaking to you, there were 17 murders in Chicago last weekend. I saw on the internet you know they voted for it. This guy made no secret of how he was going to handle policing and everything else. I remember and this is not a new problem I remember when Marion Barry was the mayor of Washington DC and he was doing literally caught doing lines of cocaine and stuffing money in his pocket, and they reelected him. When I say they, I mean the majority black population of Washington DC, of urban blacks, which is a toxic and poisonous culture. It is time to call it what it is and not bully it, not exile it, but we're going to have to rebuild it. We know what's wrong and this is what whites are responsible for. Whites are responsible for too much fucking guilt.
Speaker 1:So after we passed the Civil Rights Act as, by the way, was a great piece of legislation, I don't give a crap what anybody says at that point we had the world by the ass, and when I say we, I mean all Americans. Black poverty had reduced by 50% from the end of the Second World War through 1960. We passed the Civil Rights Act, jim Crow was gone, the world was open to black people in front of them, and what did we do? We said you know what? You're so fucking stupid that we're going to have to pay you to be poor. Okay, we subsidized poverty. We took poverty away from being something that you fell into and had to crawl out of. And poverty is hard and poverty hurts and poverty puts you in a bad place. I know this for a fact now, because I got out of prison poor. I have been poor now. I know what it is to live less than paycheck to paycheck. I know what it is to try to scrimp it together. I'm telling you right now it's supposed to hurt, because that's why you get the hell out of it. Okay, what we did was we took the hurt out of it and we did it for very good reasons and it was very well-meaning.
Speaker 1:I consider Lyndon Johnson a Shakespearean tragedy. Okay, he's a tragic figure. I think his heart was absolutely in the right place and he became the agent of the destruction of the very people he was trying to help and he became the enshriner of a permanent poor class. Now, within this poor class, there are plenty of whites who have fallen into urban black culture and it's become an urban low-class white culture that exists for sure and Latino. The entire urban culture has been infected by this entire welfare-based destruction of the nuclear family. Unfortunately, even though there are very low-class white people and very low-class Latino brown people and I'm just going to point it out the way it is Everybody is not the same. There are high-class and low-class people, and I'm just going to point it out the way it is Everybody is not the same. There are high class and low class people. I'm sorry, it's just true. Let's just bring it out. But the low class can become high class and it has nothing to do with money. It has to do with decency and how you present yourself and how you speak and how you come forward. And it's we Hmm, it's we, the black population had the special mix of the victimhood pathology that's been repeated to it so many times that urban black people don't even question it.
Speaker 1:I know this because I've had long conversations with urban black convicts in prison on this very subject that I had very good relationships with. So you know, like, before you get too carried away, the kinfolk, which is what they call the black people, call themselves kinfolk in prison. The kinfolk protected me in prison, you know, and I was just. I would speak about this with them all the time. I would teach re-entry classes and tell them all the time you guys got to stop whining and just find a way and fuck them. That became a thing. You know, I used to tell black people, black guys, all the time, instead of whining about it.
Speaker 1:How's that working for you? So you know you were born, you know you have this hard background, yada, yada, yada. You've bought into this whole narrative of you're a victim and it's the white guy and it's racism and it's the legacy of slavery. How's that working for you? Because I don't see it working at all. Okay, I see you just stuck at it and feeding the pocketbooks of race hustlers, you know, like Abraham X, but the worst part is it's almost. You know, I understand the hustler because I've been up to my ass in criminals.
Speaker 1:What I don't understand is how the whole world doesn't call them out, since they're obviously full of shit. I mean, how does the world not call it out? Because white people are scared. And that brings me to stoicism, of which the first pillar is courage. Let us review the four pillars of stoicism Courage, justice, moderation and wisdom. Okay, the first pillar is always courage. It doesn't matter what you know to be true if you will not stand in your own truth. Okay, it's as simple as that. It is time for those of us white, and everyone else, to step that gets it, including the black people, to get it, to step up and say out loud. I know there are a lot of black people afraid to be ostracized by their own community. I understand that. That's why you must have courage. That's what courage is. There is no courage without a test of courage, and this is your test of courage to step up and come forward and say clearly to the world to hear that urban black culture is toxic.
Speaker 1:Welfare must end. That's prescription number one. Welfare must end, not be reformed, not be changed, not be tinkered with. There is no successful example of any social program working the way it was intended. Good luck. It's the shortest list in the world. You can put it on a blank piece of paper. They don't work. They don't work. It just doesn't.
Speaker 1:Now look in anti-politism. After you read a radical reset available to you on Amazon, by the way, you will find out that I'm basically in favor of returning almost everything except national defense and foreign policy and chasing down interstate criminals. Everything else I leave to the states. So look, if an individual state wants to try a welfare program, good luck, because they'll only fuck up that state welfare program. Good luck, because they'll only fuck up that state.
Speaker 1:But this 52 state butt screwing that we've given ourselves in every major city of America has to come to an end, and what we're doing is we're subsidizing the single-paired family and that has to stop, not be reformed, stop, not be modified, stop. Okay, now we can give everybody a warning. We can say we're going to start cutting this off in 12 months, leave it at current levels for 12 months and then, at the end of 12 months, in 12 equal steps down, it will be reduced to zero over the next 12 months. So now they've got 24 months of income subsidization coming to them, they being the recipients of this to go out and get a job or two, yeah, and I said, or two, you know, let's get being the recipients of this to go out and get a job or two, yeah, and I said, or two, you know, let's get over the myth of poverty.
Speaker 1:You know, what's very interesting is that in the Great Depression, across all races, including the black community, crime went down, not up. Now you would think if poverty caused crime, the crime would have gone up in the Great Depression, since unemployment, in particular in the black community, went up an awful lot. Okay, why didn't it happen? And with all those people going on to bread lines and falling into part of why, why did crime not go up? And the answer is obvious the nuclear family was intact. Mom and dad lived at home and everyone pulled together and the kids got out if they had to work on the streets and sell apples on the street corner, that's what they did. I'm not advocating that now, by the way, just hold your horses. But they got out and they pulled together as a family and they pulled out of poverty. Poverty was something you fell into and then you pulled out of.
Speaker 1:When people talk about when they were poor you know, I grew up poor, they're not poor now. Okay, the person telling you that story is not the poor one. Now, if you've got a grand, a grandfather or an uncle or an aunt who said you know, I grew up poor, yeah, but you're not poor now. That's the whole point. Okay, Poverty is supposed to be temporary. It's supposed to suck when you subsidize it and then you're born into it because you're sick, you, you, you.
Speaker 1:A girl grows up without a father and she becomes a slut. That's what happens, because, without male affirmation, she will seek it elsewhere, except that those other boys won't be fathers, they'll just want to do her, and they'll start doing her from the age of 13, as soon as they hit puberty. And I am not exaggerating this in the least. I have been in this group firsthand, up to my neck, and they're the only group demographically in America, they being urban poverty people of all races who breed like bunny rabbits. This is true of all the races who get AFDC, and this is why single parenthood is expanding. The people who have any kind of resources at all aren't having children. The people who don't have any resources don't give a shit, because it means a bigger check for them from AFDC.
Speaker 1:By the way, billinton reformed that and brock obama put it right back in again. That low-life, no good rotten bastard that he is sorry, I'm just in that kind of mood today anyway. Um, where was I? I really don't like Barack Obama. I think he's the first anti-American president, really a destructive character and just a miserable human being. Okay, where am I? Okay, so, anyway, got to cut it out. So 24 months out of that and out no replacement Again.
Speaker 1:If a state wants to do it, let them do it. I have a feeling that, for example, wyoming and Montana probably won't do it. And yes, there are black people in Wyoming and Montana, they're just not urban black people prowling the streets, you know, claiming that they're owed something by their neighbors. You know, it's just. And then we, the white community, every time the subject of restitution comes up or the legacy of slavery, every white person has to turn to the black person. If it is a black person or the other white person, more likely the other white person, probably a liberal or I hate to use the word liberal a progressive, who says this to you. Okay, they're going to say to you you know it's, the legacy is blah, blah, blah, and bullshit is the correct response. It's bullshit. There is no data to suggest any of that is true. This is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Speaker 1:The only legacy of slavery that exists is the legacy of aid to family with dependent children. Is combined with the toxic, toxic ideology of people like Al Sharpton, who, who have, who have mixed it up and and and the you and victims lap this crap up. It's just an easy story to tell and the next thing, you know, it becomes the ideology of the entire culture, which is what hip hop music represents. All you have to do is listen to it to understand that I'm not exaggerating a word of what I'm saying. And it's toxic. We can't just keep saying, well, that's their culture saying, and it's toxic, it's not. We can't just keep saying, well, that's their culture, no, it's not okay, it's not okay. It's destroyed every major urban area in the United States. It's destroyed the black nuclear family. It's destroyed the future for over half of black Americans. It has to stop. And it's infiltrated and gotten into every other racial group, and the only thing missing from those groups is the poisonous legacy of slavery bullshit. But don't worry, socialism is coming along for those people.
Speaker 1:If we don't pull out of this nosedive of decadence that we're in, we're going to be in big, big trouble, and so what I think we need to reintroduce into our culture is the culture of shame. Where has shame gone? Those kids who beat the crap out of those people in the street should be ashamed. That's what I mean, aside from everything else, that they should go to prison. They need to, but they don't. I promise you. They feel no shame at all. Why? Because they were raised without fathers, have no boundaries, don't understand what shame even is. Plus, they live in a culture where you're not supposed to be ashamed. It's all about you. It's all about what you need. It's all about what you want. It's all about what you need to make you better.
Speaker 1:I fell into this trap, by the way, I got sucked into this no shame culture. I went to a life coach in Los Angeles that, I'm ashamed to say, I listened to for a very long time and his whole shtick was that shame is not legitimate and you shouldn't feel shame and you have to be true and tell the truth to yourself. And blah, blah, blah Bullshit. You need to feel it. I'll tell you right now I am ashamed of what I did to put me in prison. I'm very ashamed of it and I'm glad I'm ashamed of it. If I didn't feel ashamed of it, what kind of a sociopath would I be? And I got to tell you the whole culture needs to bring back shame.
Speaker 1:We do so many things. I could sound like such a prude, but we have let the horse way out of the bargain on the decadence trail. You know, did I really? Is that a mashed up metaphor? I don't know what I just did with that. Anyway, I told you I'm extemporaneous. I never know what comes out of my mouth until it's already out. And then I feel pretty stupid later Then I rehash this in my head.
Speaker 1:I don't relisten to these, but I hash. I remember everything I say in my head and I'm like going through it. Should I have said that there's a lot of this I probably shouldn't have said? But it comes down to this you want to save black America. You want to save American cities. There's no program that will do it. There's no amount of talk or understanding or learning to listen to each other. We must say that it's a toxic urban culture that must be destroyed.
Speaker 1:Beginning with, we must stop subsidizing it. Cut off all federal welfare. Cut it off. They will go to work. What should we do for all those people? Nothing, they will figure it out.
Speaker 1:Will some suffer? Yes, some will suffer. And you want to know something? Consequence is the only teacher, and suffering is a good thing if it gets you to where you need to be. We all need to suffer a little.
Speaker 1:We have to get away from the idea that life is somehow possibly painless. It just isn't and sometimes pain's. You know, if you put your hand down on a hot stove, you're going to pull it away real fast. Pain serves a purpose. Okay, it's really important that you feel pain, and not just physical pain, but emotional pain, and you suffer financial pain. Okay, you must suffer consequence, otherwise you become nothing. You live a life of no value, because a life lived without virtue has no value.
Speaker 1:And we have now condemned tens of millions of Americans, okay, to a life bereft of all value. And of course they're nihilistic and of course they have no shame and of course they'll beat up. You know a couple for some silly fucking reason and feel no shame around it, because they feel entitled to do it because of this toxic brew of poison that's been downloaded within them since birth, and their and their parents since birth, and their grandparents since birth, and their great grandparents at this point, since birth. And, by the way, they got young grandparents. I cannot tell you how many times I've met 30 year old, 30 something year old grandparents. That is not uncommon in this community. This is what we've let out of the barn. This is what we have to put back in. This is at the root of our cultural degradation. This is at the root of our cultural cowardice.
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm not saying don't read this wrong Okay, I'm saying that the urban parasitic community primarily made up of black people, but plenty of white people and brown people mixed in too, are there because of a toxic culture that must be destroyed, that we, being the well-meaning who was trying to help but only destroyed their agency, subsidized their descent into destruction. And then when you couple that with the influence that the black community has always had on American popular culture because on the bright side, artistically and creatively speaking, you know, maybe this is a reverse prejudice, but no one touches the black people. They just, you know, they no one. It's just. That's the way it is. And so, naturally, black people have an oversized, they have an oversized talent. Oversized talent will show up in oversized ways and it has affected our culture and it used to be such a good thing. Remember those love songs. Remember those love songs.
Speaker 1:I know I sound like such a boomer, but I'm trying to take it down a few degrees because I know I got wound up. Try to pick out the parts where I know I'm going to regret posting this. I just know it and I'm going to do it anyway because you know what. You have to be honest, you have to be true to who you are. What can you be if you are not sincere? And if people don't like it, then they don't like it. You know there's a freedom in really giving yourself over to that, not worrying about what people think. Now I'm not saying go out of your way to be offensive, that's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:And I've had this discussion, like I said, with plenty of inmates when I was inside and they all end up agreeing with me. Really, I mean, they're not all, that's not true. I've had plenty of intransigent man. You haven't lived until you've met the Muslims, the black Muslims inside. Oy, are they a treat. But aside from that group, primarily everyone else that I got along just great. Everybody's got their crazies. You know, every group's got their crazies.
Speaker 1:But unfortunately in the black community it's gotten way out of control, particularly in the inner cities, and for the benefit of not just the black community but for Americans as a whole. Because now, let's be honest. If you heard a generic story hey, did you hear about the mob that beat up a couple in Detroit? You automatically know that's going to be a black mob beating up somebody. Now they might be beating up another black couple, by the way, but it's going to be a black mob doing the beating. It's not always a white couple. This is not always a racial thing. The black on black violence is much worse than black on white violence. The black and white violence is still rare, you know. It's egregious because that's why I've got so much I guess, circulation, I suppose.
Speaker 1:But the fact of the matter is, I mean, it doesn't take a lot of searching to see plenty of, my God, black kids just beating the living shit out of other black kids. And why and this doesn't go on in other communities because we haven't at least yet destroyed the nuclear family to quite that extent it does go on within those communities, within those same schools and districts and neighborhoods. So like, for example, here in Phoenix, there's an area called Maryvale, and Maryvale is a really rough part of Phoenix and there are a lot of black people who live in Maryvale, but there are a lot of white people and a lot of brown people who live in Maryvale and they're all about the same when it comes to complete lack of shame, boundary and violence. Okay, and when you go to prison, about eight out of 10 people you meet came out of Maryvale. In the state prison system of Arizona.
Speaker 1:It's just when people of all races are exposed to toxicity, they themselves become toxic, unless they have the courage to stand up against it. And how can they even have that courage within those communities if they didn't have fathers at home to teach them what their boundaries and what they needed to know in the first place? You can't expect spontaneous knowledge. You know why do these people do these things? Because they don't know any different. This is the culture within which they were raised. Okay, to that extent they're not responsible, but they are responsible because once you are confronted with objective reality, your job as a human being is to accept it. Now, they're not going to accept just being told, which is why we must stop paying them, we must stop subsidizing this toxin, and then they will figure it out. And yeah, it'll be hard, and to say otherwise would be a lie. But if it isn't hard, what good is it? Okay, well, that's the end of today's rant.
Speaker 1:I'm hoping that no one ever listens to this. No, I'm not. I'm hoping honestly. It just had to be said. And I don't. You know what? Who am I? Just some guy in Phoenix. So anyway, have a beautiful, beautiful rest of your week. I'll talk to you on Wednesday. All things being equal, don't forget to pick up a copy of A Radical Reset, the Manifesto of Antipolitism, available to you on Amazon in Kindle, paperback or hardcover. And that's it. Until next time, have a beautiful, beautiful rest of your day, and until Wednesday, this is your pal Herbie, saying adios, no-transcript.
