Hillary Clinton – Self Equanimity https://selfequanimity.com Current Affairs Wed, 08 Feb 2023 23:45:39 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.3 https://i0.wp.com/selfequanimity.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/SE-Copy.png?fit=32%2C32&ssl=1 Hillary Clinton – Self Equanimity https://selfequanimity.com 32 32 176655959 The World Economic Forum just ended? https://selfequanimity.com/the-world-economic-forum-just-ended/ https://selfequanimity.com/the-world-economic-forum-just-ended/#respond Sat, 28 Jan 2023 20:32:11 +0000 https://selfequanimity.com/?p=1936 Every day, I hear black people brag about how intelligent we are, not to mention how informed we are, coming to look at it seems most people are spewing the same rhetoric. Oh it is so easy to know one thing or the other, but to have sophisticated thinking abilities, well that takes certain skills. .. Moreover  I don’t think we care about the things that really matter. if 2020 has taught us anything at all it has taught us that politics is a very emotional affair Friendships ended because of politics, families stopped talking to each other, etc. This tells us that politics have very little to do with facts, besides if we want facts, we would have to read and reading is boring.  The whole thing is based on who likes who. You would think that in this age of information, many of us would be a little more informed than usual.

This brings me to my topic.  Today I’m talking about the World Economic Forum. an event that takes place every year. Let me enlighten you. The World Economic Forum is a meeting of the most powerful people in the world, of course with power comes influence and money.  This event as I stated already, happens every year at a place called Davos, in Switzerland. They meet and decide world policy. Every influencer be it an actor, people in positions of power, or just plain rich, etc has been to the World Economic Forum in Davos at one time or another.  Arent we curious to know what happens there?? This isn’t a conspiracy theory, and it is hardly a secret at all,  they release a report of their meetings every year, and this year’s report is about 100 pages.  .  Anyone can get a report of these yearly meetings if they so choose, it’s no secret at all.  The World Economic Forum even has a website where people can go and read whatever information they want.  Again these people shape Global policy. 

Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Thabo Mbeki, Tony Blair  Bono Olusegun Obasanjo

my question is if these people are the ones responsible for current events in today’s world. why arent we more informed about this??? informed enough to ask questions ??

Bono & Angela Merkel

At the end of the day we are more concerned with things we cannot control, and those things become our natural opium, we are not concerned about policy and where these people are taking the world, some of these powerful people were elected by their nations.

People like

Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie

Jeff Bezos

Jack Ma

Donald Trump

Will-I AM

Matt Damon

Richard Gere

Condoleezza Rice

George Bush

Joe Biden

Hillary Clinton

Bono

Leonardo Dicarprio

John Kerry

Pharrell

Forest Whitaker

Bill Gates

Barack Obama

Just to name a few, just anyone who is someone in this world has been to Davos, our own black billionaires have been there, these people shape global policy yet we hardly know that this meeting takes place. I think we should do a better job of being and staying informed. I’m not here to give anyone a history lesson, I’m asking the question of us being more informed about world affairs. Today we have no excuse.

As black people we say we believe in so-called White supremacy,  well the first thing about white supremacy is that it is Global and international, if anyone thinks I’m lying all they have to do is look at the institution of slavery, slavery was international, it is almost as if there was an international coordination,  and also an international coordination when it was abolished. Other examples are Wall Street, trading, etc. Everything happens globally, the world is too vast and broad for us to limit ourselves to one country. International Affairs is a must.

What did we think was going to happen ? BAU!! https://selfequanimity.com/what-did-we-think-was-going-to-happen-bau/ https://selfequanimity.com/what-did-we-think-was-going-to-happen-bau/#respond Wed, 02 Dec 2020 01:12:38 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=1138 Since we claim we are so politically aware these days, what I ask is “ has anyone looked at Biden’s cabinet?? He has a very interesting cabinet, we as black people failed to look into the background or should I say “background” of Joe Biden, right now we don’t care, all we care about is we voted for someone that makes us “feel good”. We as black people have completely forgotten about the election and its consequences. Let us not forget, Joe Biden supported America’s longest war, ( invasion of Iraq, Afghanistan) and also supported the myth of Weapons of Mass destruction, from what I have seen so far, I don’t expect a lot of people to know about it,  a lot did not know about Biden’s 47-year racist history.

So far he has nominated 6 people,  but let us look at one name, in particular,  Anthony Blinken has been picked for Secretary of STATE.  He was the deputy secretary of state under Hillary Clinton and a national security adviser to Joe Biden, does anyone remember the Benghazi scandal? The invasion of Libya, that actually made Libya a slave market?? Just recently Representative Jim Clyburn of South Carolina was a little upset with Joe Biden for not nominating more black people, well what did he think was going to happen?  Doesn’t his cabinet look like Trump’s cabinet?  One black person and the rest white ??  yet we claim the democrats love black people so they will give “things” to us freely, but what am I saying, if we can forgive Joe Biden for years of racism, even for supporting the southern manifesto?  We can forgive anyone, I’m sure we have some form of forgiveness stored just in case he does something wrong.  Hopefully, we as black people shall become more politically aware, not just give it lip service.

Defund the Police or planned parenthood https://selfequanimity.com/defund-the-police-or-planned-parenthood/ https://selfequanimity.com/defund-the-police-or-planned-parenthood/#respond Sat, 27 Jun 2020 05:11:56 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=584 We as a people talk about defunding the police because the police are so evil, people are really mad at the police right now, we as a people should be asking very basic questions, according to the Washington post the number of unarmed black men who were killed by police last year (2019) were just 9 as compared to 19 whites. The funny thing about this is that the so-called protest destroyed a lot of poor neighborhoods,  black people say we don’t have money yet we destroy our neighborhoods. Let me show you how someone else benefits from this. First, they destroy the neighborhoods like the wendy’s that was burnt down,  so a few people had just lost their jobs.  second, we talk about defunding the police,  well because of the backlash that the police gets,  most of them will step back and stop policing poor neighborhoods, rich neighborhoods are gated. The very people who say defund the police, are the once who are going to suffer the most, the rich who talk for us, don’t live like us. Automatically, crime goes up, after all, no police would want to be called racist so they won’t go into those neighborhoods. Crime goes up, bringing the value of that neighborhood down, very soon someone will buy out the whole neighborhood and gentrify the whole neighborhood , your state governor or mayor won’t say NO, to moneyour especially if it’s cash. They will buy it for pennies on the dollar. As stated before, we just gentrified our own neighborhoods FOR FREE. Does anyone  really think defunding the Police is still a good idea?

As a society, we need people to make it function, this brings me to planned Parenthood set up in our neighborhoods.  Planned parenthood is systematically placed in low-income neighborhoods,  low income neighborhoods are synonymous with black neighborhoods. Let me say this, No one has killed more black people than us black people. Homicides, drugs, the prison system, KKK, not even black on black crime, (ahh I guess abortion is a form of black on black crime). All of these groups couldn’t kill us like we have killed us.

Black people used to be 15% of the population, due to abortion, we are now 13% of the population. Black women abort more babies than any other race in America.  It is funny when they want to sell the idea of killing our own babies they call it reproductive health. Planned Parenthood is the largest provider of abortion.  it is strange that planned parenthood turned down federal funds,  one may ask why because it needs all the money it can get, especially since they say it is doing a lot of good in the neighborhoods. They even said because “they” have refused federal funds a lot of low-income women will go without “care” Its number one client according to racial groups are black women. The truth is they turned out federal funds because the money came with restrictions on abortions, for them if they couldn’t provide the one thing that they were invented for, they will just not take the money, and if it was true that they were there for other “reproductive” health  Like they say, they still would have taken the money.

Magaret Sanger

Let us look at the intentions of the founder of planned parenthood,. Founder of planned parenthood is Margaret Sanger, she was born September 14th, 1879 in NY, and died September 6th, 1966, A few of her words

  1. ” A free race cannot be born by slave mothers, ‘ ( she called black women slave mothers)”
  2. ” Birth Control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race”
  3.  ” We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the negro” ( in her letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble)

She accepted an invitation to talk to the women’s branch of the KKK  and she said  when she started speaking she felt like she accomplished her purpose

  1. Eugenics without birth control seems to us a house build on sand it is at the mercy of the rising stream of the unfit.
Hillary Clinton

She was admired by our beloved Hillary Clinton. She even received an award from planned parenthood, and these were her remarks

“Now, I have to tell you that it was a great privilege when I was told that I would receive this award. I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision … And when I think about what she did all those years ago in Brooklyn, taking on archetypes, taking on attitudes and accusations flowing from all directions, I am really in awe of her.”- Hillary Clinton

Our lives should matter to us, from birth to death. Its funny 80% of planned parenthood establishments are in black neighborhood,  if blacks are just 13% of the population( which includes men), this means black women are less, how is it that we are responsible for approximately 37% all abortions in the united STATES??

Fake Outrage, Facts and Fiction https://selfequanimity.com/fake-outrage-facts-and-fiction/ https://selfequanimity.com/fake-outrage-facts-and-fiction/#respond Thu, 11 Jun 2020 06:33:49 +0000 http://selfequanimity.com/?p=520 With everything that is going on it is easy to get lost in sensationalism. We have to ask was something done in the past for all this to be happening now??  Now more than ever, if we are crying out about systemic unfairness and racism etc. We should be looking at the system and what policies got us here, ( laws and bills line by line), let us take a walk down memory lane, let’s say almost 25-30 years ago. These are the times when we should be asking, who, what, when, and how. Trump, is a scapegoat, a lot of people call him stupid and indirectly blame him for everything that is going wrong with the country now,  he is the dumb president that somehow got into the highest office of the land. People also believe that somehow America was such a Utopia before Trump who just “messed” everything up.

Let us look at a few facts. I’d like to start with something that is connected to what is going on at the present moment, something very current. We all know black neighborhoods are over overpoliced, but where did it all start…  I will like to go back to a set of policies put in place by the democratic party. President Bill Clinton first got into office in 1992, started his term from 1993-2001. Ah, the 42nd president some might even call him the first black president, he was so cool, he played the saxophone on the Arsenio Hall show, GREAT!!. In his 1993 state of the union address he asked for 100,000 more police officers,( this was his first year in office by the way) this was before the famous 1994 crime bill. Funny it is almost as if he had an agenda before getting into office ….

Then came the 1994 crime bill which was co-authored by Joe Biden, In the 1995 state of the union address he asked for 100,000 police officers again,  then in 96 then in 98 and in 2000 guess what he did, after getting 100,000 police officers he asked for an additional 50,000, he told congress they should be focused on high crime areas. There you have it, over-policing was actually put in place by the one who least gets the blame.

 

Bill Clinton

This is not to say that over-policing did not exist before, it certainly did, we had the war on drugs, amongst others. but what this man did in his 8-year term was quite interesting, it is almost as if his presidency, ( when it came to blacks) was based on putting more black people in jail.

Isn’t it amazing that a few years after, we are now crying about police brutality and over-policing of black people?  Most people won’t go back that far in history. In 8 years the democratic party gave us the crime bill, and extra police to go along with it.  Yet there are a few people who believe that if Democrats were in power, all this wouldn’t have happened. President Barack Obama held a town hall meeting via zoom, about recent events yet he never mentioned once that all this started with the very party he supports. Believe it or not, Trump has taken steps to counter the 1994 crime bill which is the “The first step ACT. “ From Bill Clinton to George Bush to Barack Obama, Black people were still the most locked up In the country. Sadly Presidents like Bill Clinton made sure of that by signing the 1994 crime bill.

Let look at immigration. People use that as the argument against Trump, sort of a “gotcha” thing against him.  Let us took a look, does anyone remember the Muslim ban?  People acted as if they loved refugees and Muslims, people protested and marched just like anything else. Go back far enough, there was a time when every Muslim face was a suspect. The truth is most governors did not really want refugees in their states but somehow kept quiet about it while the marching and protesting were going on. Fun fact, the 7 countries Trump was being racist about? they were actually chosen by Obama. Obama was the one who ordered tough restrictions on people from those countries. Funny how he has been quiet through all this.  Let go to another issue, it is still linked to immigration. Ah, the separation of the children at the border.  This is a very complex issue.  It is interesting to note that the separation started under Obama’s administration.  Trump did start the zero-tolerance policy but it was under Obama that children were being locked up. No one seems to mind then.  What the media isn’t saying is that the Obama administration is just as guilty as the Trump administration. Another fun fact, Obama had a nickname “deporter in chief”.

Barack Obama

I’m sure we can guess he didn’t get such a nickname because he was pro” illegal immigrant”, something Trump was accused of.

Does anyone remember the famous picture of children’s faces down on the floor, in a chained cage?  Well, that picture was taken in 2014.   who was president in 2014???? I betting anyone $10.00 that it wasn’t Trump.

Finally, the wall that Trump wanted because he was a racist and crazy??

Another fun fact, most famous democrats you see today wanted a wall back in 2006.  When Trump was debating Hillary Clinton, he said plainly and simple, “Hillary Wanted a wall, but as you know she can’t get anything done” to which her response was “ I voted for border security” and then she went on to change the conversation to what Trump said about immigrants or shall we say, she said Trump was bashing immigrants,  If anyone goes back to read the “Secure Fence ACT of 2006″,  and who voted for it, they will find out that their beloved democrats wanted that wall, funny how they changed because Trump wanted the same thing. Here are some democrats who were for the wall as well,

Hillary Clinton
  1. Senator Barack Obama
  2. Senator Hillary Clinton
  3. Senator Joe Biden
  4. Senator Dianne Feinstein
  5. Chuck Schumer.

Barack Obama said in a speech on September 21, 2006, 2 years before he became president, that building the wall will certainly do some good. Of course, how could I leave out Joe Biden, he said in a town hall meeting that “ I voted for a fence” I voted for 700 miles of fence. People are crossing the border with tons of cocaine to heroin to methamphetamine” doesn’t he sound a lot like Trump????

Joe Biden

In the information age, we should be careful not to buy into sensationalism!!!
