Defense Of Lincoln Perry

Lincoln Perry was the actor who invented and played
the Steppin’ Fetchet character. For years he has been
maligned by virtually everyone, black and white, for the
damage his character did to the image folks have of
black people. I wonder how how many folks have
studied how the Stepnin Fetchet Character came into
being. First, lets look at the mentality of the country at
the time. There was no meaningful civil rights
movement. There was a general attitude that nothing
was in the offing that would change race relations at the
time. The notion of how one individual through his
behavior might have a profound impact on society as a
whole was not part of life. Lincoln Perry’s Steppin
Fetchet character , in the beginning , entertained black
audiences.

What type of comedy was popular in the 1930s? It was
nothing like what is popular today.  An element of cruelty
and self effacement was where the money was for comedians.
 

Lets look at how Steppin’ Fetchit looks next to his competition. Successful comedians
knew the paradigm for success at that time.

Lincoln Perry was doing exactly the same thing other popular comedians were doing at the time.

There was a difference. Lincoln Perry was a better actor than the others. The stand up
comedy venue had not been that well developed. This kind of humor is what audiences
demanded and received.

It is common knowledge that Perry was the first black actor to make one million dollars
in Hollywood. He was an intellectual and a writer as well as a comedian.

Society needs scapegoats , I suppose. It seems to be human nature to look at the past and
believe that there was nothing different about how people thought and behaved.

Like many other celebrities, Perry’s private life was not at all stellar. W.C. Fields was a
hopeless alcoholic and died as a result.

That doesn’t have anything to do with his act as a comedian.


Some questions are never asked like, during his career how many other Americans were
doing all they could to present a prettier race picture than what existed at that time in
history?

I think we can say that Lincoln Perry was no saint. That doesn’t seem to bother anyone.
There was nothing demeaning to black people that he is responsible for. He was just a comedian practicing his craft. He made people laugh and they paid to see him. That is a comedian’s job. As a comedian, Lincoln Perry was one of the best ever.

Medical Mafia

From 2800 BC – to present there have been 33784 years when there was an empire trying to rule the world. Some of these initiatives lasted hundreds of years. Some just came and went.

All of these attempts are listed at that following
link.
Empires and Times

At any given time , the world has been under the influence of one empire – building initiative or another for an average of about 67 years. Given
that…. is it really unusual to think there is an orchestrated attempt to capture the world’s factors of production going on right now? Is that not the ultimate goal of all attempts to rule the world?

Up until recently, world – capturing efforts were all military in nature. Who would launch a military initiative to do such a thing when the same result can be achieved by managing the worlds resources …..by taking over all of the major markets around the globe?

Medical Mafia is the name of a book I haven’t read. It is hard to get. I don’t know what isin it. I am making use of the term because it describes healthcare today exactly as it is.

The Affordable Care Act provides multiple skimming operations that are used in the
healthcare industry. The bill guarantees decades of highly profitable operations for allhigher level healthcare organizations and facilities.

The bill converts doctors into clerks who act as agents for the medical mafia. Doctors are lulled into this because clerking for the medical mafia is about the only way it is possible to practice medicine. Doctors don’t consciously decide to aid organized crime. Clerking is the main and sometimes only path a doctor has to earn an income. A doctor’s income is not the issue. In this system a typical doctor is nowhere near the top of the food chain.

The warning I have for doctors is that clerking on behalf of the medical mafia
diminishes your utility to society. That will cause your income to drop over time. Acting as an agent of the medical mafia though , may be the only option a doctor has.

A patient goes into a medical office. First there are a series of questions that are
unrelated to any complaint the patient is making. Have you had your flu shot? Do you feel safe at home? Have you fallen recently? Are you suicidal? These questions are mining for problems to be exploited by virtue of various skimming operations that are applicable. Surely the staff has been convinced that they doing a good thing by managing people’s lives and decisions with respect to healthcare.

But, what about the patient’s complaint? The importance of that is greatly diminished. Odds are that the reason for the visit will be ignored. The subject will be changed to something that better exploits feeding frenzies on federal money. All of this takes place in less than 15 minutes but usually even less than that.

The death rate actually started rising in 2014 when the bill was fully functional.
Genuine issues patients have are routinely disregarded. Diagnoses must me made in 15 minutes or less. By this time a patient’s medical history has been purged except for a few things relevant to mining for the feeding frenzies. How good of a diagnosis could be made here even by the Albert Einstein of physicians. Having a brain is one thing.
Having the time to use it …..something else. Naturally lifespans are falling and this is only the beginning.

Why suspect organized crime? After all, no public notices have been posted announcingthe operation of a global crime syndicate.

DNA Of Your Betters

What are some of life’s most competitive
activities? There are professional sports, pop
music, business in general and so on. Is there
any reason why an average person with an
average of DNA based attributes cannot rise to
the top in any and all of competitive fields?

There is no law against trying. Given enough
effort is there any reason why Pee Wee Herman
couldn’t play line backer in the NFL? Perhaps
he does not run fast enough. Is he too light?
Can he bench press 400 lbs? Is he competitive
enough? It takes a lot to qualify as a linebacker
in the NFL. What is most necessary here is
what is in a person’s DNA.

How competitive is the process of becoming the world’s richest man?

How competitive is it to become the world’s most powerful man or woman?

How competitive are elections of the president and members of congress?

The competition to be top dog on the world stage in any of the above just mentioned
positions is almost impossible to even fathom because it is so severe. In truth that kind
of competition gets bloody.

What DNA based characteristics would contribute to winning the presidency or a seat in
congress? Some describe it as a political personality. A good question is, what is the
difference between a political personality and that of a sociopath? Honestly, that is a
good question. Is there a difference?

Yard Signs

There are countless Americans who are upset
given the strange atmosphere in the country. I
wonder though how many are really thinking?
There seems to be an attitude that some leader
will emerge and move the country back in the
right direction. I guarantee you, this will never
happen. Unless ordinary people who live in
houses and apartments, whom must work in
order to survive, get aggressive in
communicating their thoughts, there is
absolutely no chance that most of them will
avoid being destroyed financially.

Government is not about representing. It is not
about creating fairness or opportunities.

Government is for taking, not for giving. There is no chance anyone in the world will give up their own self interest and do good things for constituents. It has never happened yet.
Watch, and see if it happens this time.

Honestly, if Americans are so inwardly focused and unwilling to lift a finger or spend a
dime outside of the formal political process, the country is genuinely and certainly
doomed. The formal political process is not working, so why are folks looking to it for
solutions? With this mentality, the losses Americans are on the eve of experiencing, will
be well deserved.

What does one yard sign do? Ask a real estate agent. They would not put signs in yards if
people ignored them. Put a sign in your yard and it increases the probability someone
else will do the same thing, Face it. Folks are waiting around for someone to give them
permission to speak up, When a neighbor puts up a topical yard sign, that actually gives
someone else permission to put one up also.

This is a new sign I have just ordered.
I am happy if anyone wants to use it as a template. The size is 24×18. The image is
already the right dimensions. There is nothing sacred about my design. Make your own.

Essence of Fantasy Free Thinking


Every child is born into an ongoing eternal power struggle but does not know that is the case.

Nature gives all of its creatures a high level of discernment with respect to the present moment. All animals are born with the ability to recognize risks and  rewards – as well as fact or fiction ….close to flawlessly in the present moment.

Opportunities and dangers are
immediately fathomed and responded to.
The basic nature of our existence is completely daunting. We know not what we are nor why we
are here. We can only live by consuming other living things. We do not know what life is even though we recognize it when we see it. We do not know what consciousness is either ….or whether it is part of the physical world – or exists independently. We are mortal and really don’t know what death is , either.

There is an alternative to living in the uncertainty that is given by nature.

We can replace it with fantasy. So, at birth the race to escape reality begins and continues until death. Reality becomes what we want or what we can cope with instead of what it really is. Reality always catches up with a human being one way or the other. Happiness requires staying a safe
 distance from the reality of survival – both as an individual ….and as a species.

Humans create a safer and happier mental arena for survival than the one nature provides…. although the one nature provides is always in control.
It is comforting to believe that there are one or more benevolent entities by way of government, religion or something else working in our behalf, trying to do what is right in order to make lives better. This is the common fantasy the mind generates , but the truth is the opposite.

No one enters public life for any purpose other than personal gain, be it power, money or prestige. This is the truth. I am sorry – but it is.
So, we end up with a population of messiah – seekers who support candidates who they believe will carry water for them when elected to office. There are basically two styles of representation in government, trustees and delegates.

In government today all who are in office are trustees. There are no delegates.

A delegate is one who votes the will of his constituents regardless of his personal opinions or postures. We end up with a government of individual power – seekers pursuing their own interests and a public which has no influence over government.
