Puppy Chow in Cat-Man-Do: How Trump's Anti-Blackist, Racist Trope Worked

From the last acknowledged "civil war" in the United States, to Willie Horton ads, the sexiest thing in U.S. politics is insulting and politicizing its societal doormat: BPITUS.

The media is as sick as Trump, if not sicker.

Because some self-righteous anal orifice might misinterpret this article as something it isn’t, let me establish the disclaimer now that I prefer children and animals (sans bipeds) to anyone reading this.

Pursuant to the wake (as in funeral as opposed to that left by a boat) of the September 10th debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, what is the most sensational thing to come out of it? Being that you read this publication because you are atypical of the aggregate population in terms of intelligence and erudition, you already know the answer to this question. Why? Because you have sense enough to read the title. 

I write only to attract you and those like you. We are far outnumbered, or so it appears, but we ought equalize the overwhelming majority with our wits. A fact that has a lot less to do with how you look, than how you think. 

Or how you think you look.

That having been distinctly stated I want you, with significant distress, to act like the intellectually vacant. Just for a moment or two. I will be as merciful as the Gods and Goddesses allow. Your suffering will be brief.

The very fabric of the United States is in tatters, and perhaps that is the way it should be. A sort of inverted or perverted "manifest destiny" depending on the umpire. Umpire or empire, take your pick.

The tatters are all around us from homelessness, to rampant and public white supremacist actions, to food insecurity, to voter intimidation, to gerrymandering, to crumbling infrastructure, to lack of healthcare, to child abuse (often by those entrusted to protect them), to the political arena, to a very dangerous supreme court that is more dangerous than usual, to having one of the world's lowest literacy rates for a so-called "first" world country. Yet, none of these exigent matters made headlines if they were spoken of at all, and let me save you some trouble because they were not. Spectacular.

The world is, more likely than not, at the prelude of world war. Go on a perfunctory excursus and think about the last world war. That war ended exactly 79 years, 0 months and 17 days from the date of this writing. Someone 79 years old is old enough to be my parent and I don't think that there are many in the U.S. populace that remember the last global war; though it could be saliently said that global war never ended. Anyone alive today that can remember the second world war will be well into their 80's. 

As this potentiality for war takes on an evermore threatening shape, it is important to realize a technological paradigm shift. 80 years ago. 80 years ago radar became a marvel akin to space travel; the thought of satellites would have placed you in the coo-coo hut, indefinitely. 80 years ago you were high highfalutin if you owned a television set. That television set, and its images thereupon, were in Black and White. Color images would come a couple of decades later; and, yes, I am laughing my ass off. If you don't get the origin of my mirth, fuhgeddaboudit.

Penicillin is the grandfather of antibiotics. A proverbial "wonder drug" (though a "drug" in its loosest sense). It shook the medical world...80 years ago. Only half of U.S. households had a telephone...80 years ago. The jet engine, partly due to that second world war, catapulted passenger travel in a quantitative way...80 years ago. 

The Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was a technological marvel filling an entire room that had to be completely sterile. Because it used vacuum-tubes that sterile room had to be kept very cold and dozens of technicians were required. The output came on "punched-cards." ENIAC was essentially a calculator designed for the military and involved massive amounts of money in terms of research and development. If one were to spare three dollars at the local dollar store, the calculator purchased will have a thousand times the calculative or compute power that ENIAC had. But ENIAC was the cutting edge of technology...80 years ago.

As in any age, there were many technological advances and feats 80 years ago. However, the one that stands out most, given technological journals of the time, is the atomic bomb. Peripherally speaking, nuclear and radiological advances are inclusive.

The world cannot imagine how technology has changed weaponry and lethality in almost a century, which is an unnerving prospect. Nuclear threats are, in some ways, tame compared to biological and chemical weaponizations depending on tactical deployment. Everyone knows a nuke was detonated on a city; everyone doesn't know when a chemical or biological weapon has been "detonated" (which can take many forms).

Throw in miniaturization, cellphones, automated banking, deep-fakes, the internet, hacking, drones, hypersonic ballistic technology, exploding pagers, Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Ukraine, Russia, China, North Korea, Yemen, Nigeria, Mali, Sudan, Libya, South Africa, Venezuela and the rest (most) of the world that the "West" has pissed off and we are looking at what many of us refuse to see. Because it's that goddamned frightening. Yet, none of these exigent matters made headlines if they were spoken of at all, and let me save you some trouble because they were not in any significant sense. Spectacular.

You may now take off your vicarious dunce caps, but it's part of the experience like 3D anaglyphic glasses at an IMAX theater.

After 90 minutes of posturing, prattle, poppycock, poop, platitudes, prevaricating, outright lying and overall bullshit the greatest thing to come out of the September 10, 2024 "presidential" debate was...wait for it... there are some niggers eating cats and dogs in Springfield, Ohio. Dare not act like you are wincing, this is your system and, if it ain't, how does it exist?

Of all the unparalleled, unmitigated, unimaginable peril that the entire world faces, especially the United States, the "American" appetite wished to digest indictments, as always, on some Black People in the United States (BPITUS) dining on Underdog and Hello Kitty. Fabulous! Stupendous! Remarkable! Spectacular even; and so exquisitely typical.

Cat-Man-Do

People eat things that others would not dare ingest all over the planet. In Kathmandu  Sapu Mhichā is a Newari dish that consists of buffalo leaf tripe stuffed with bone marrow. The name translates to "tripe bag" in Newar. It is a delicacy of the Kathmandu Valley's Newa cuisine and is often prepared for special occasions. In most of Islam pork is the vilest creature one can ingest. I have seen Muslims throw up at the sight of it and absolutely will not so much as touch it.

In a bit of ironic fact, at "black site" prisons operated by the United States as well as Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo, "detainees" were forced to eat pork or were otherwise terrorized by it. Yet, a typical "American" breakfast consists of bacon, sausage or ham and eggs (gross). Might as well eat haggis.

Eagle, Idaho, is home to the "World's Largest Rocky Mountain Oyster Feed." In the unlikely event you are not in the know, Rocky Mountain Oysters are harvested from the scrotums of both pigs and bulls. They are the nutsac. Inside the nutsac are the balls or “nuts,” also known as testicles. Clinton, Montana; Deerfield, Michigan; Huntley, Illinois; Sesser, Illinois; Olean, Missouri; Severance, Colorado; and Tiro, Ohio also hold testicle-festivals.

In the Philippines and Southeast Asia, balut is a common street food that involves eating a duck embryo, yolk, and amniotic fluid straight from the shell (yum). Insects are eaten in many places in the world, particularly in poorer nations though wealthier nations also consume various insects. Many times these are not always dietary choices, but necessities resultant of the greed of a global common enemy.

In fact, if you eat a lobster you are, essentially, eating an insect that is a descendant of insects belonging to the order Blattodea; more commonly referred to as a cockroach. I once ate so much lobster in New Hampshire that I had diarrhea for days. True love is bitter sweet and long suffering.

Both the current Vice-President of the United States and the candidate running for Vice-President of the United States have close ties to India and Hinduism. In much of India the cow is a sacred animal where in many jurisdictions the slaughter and consumption of cow, bull, and bullock meat is banned. A violation can result in a fine of up to 10,000 rupees and/or up to 5 years in jail.

It is abundantly clear that obese, fat-assed, unable to button his jacket Agent Orange likes burgers because he wears them on his person. Given the thematic elements of this piece, maybe the September 10th debate moderators should have asked Ms. Harris if she liked burgers or when was the last time she had a steak. Perhaps Mr. Vance will be posed that query in the upcoming, certainly to-die-for, vice-presidential debate between he and Mr. Walz.

Though widely considered taboo, the U.S. technically lacks a federal law banning the consumption of dogs and cats. That fact notwithstanding, the Dog and Cat Meat Trade Prohibition Act proscribed the transportation, delivery, possession, and slaughter of dogs and cats for human consumption. In terms of legality, there is a reason the term proscribed is used. In this context it simply means “to condemn” and has no prosecutorial teeth. The act includes an exception for “native rituals” (how insulting).

In general, dog slaughter and consumption is allowed in 44 of the 50 states; including Ohio. The only states that prohibit dog meat are California, Georgia, Hawaii, Michigan, New Jersey, New York and Virginia. Understand the nebulous legal nature of “prohibit” because if Fido passes away and I consume him in these venues, no one is going to prosecute me, just so you know. I will leave it upon thyself to voluntarily take the personal and intellectual journey to ponder why this is so.

Nine days after that travesty called a debate pitting the two “presidential” candidates against each other in a battle of wits of which they were, and are, piteously unarmed the sycophantic media morons keep resuscitating a story that was dead on arrival. They continue to pontificate on how "outrageous" it is, how "absurd" it is, how Donald Trump is just so terribly terrible (which he is) and that it has no concrete basis in fact. Nonetheless, being the ghoulish sensationalist whores that they are, they just can't let it go.

Racism, especially Anti-Blackism, is the sexiest most appetizing thing in U.S. politics on both sides of the aisle. It always has been, and it always will be. From bussing to cussing. From crime to time, and from the womb to the tomb. It is what it is because it was what it was, and it shall remain what it was until it no longer is what it is.

The media, the so-called fourth estate, can't be as collectively stupid as they wish to appear. Thusly, they have to be cognizant that by sensationalizing this primitive negro meme (and that’s exactly what it is) they are nourishing the singular issue in which Trump has a massive lead: immigration. They are helping his campaign, and the dirty bastards know they are doing it. They can use verbal subterfuge all they want and try to disguise it in linguistic drag, but the gaslight pandering to the lowest common political denominator is as obvious, as it is typical…as it is tragic. Especially given the existential peril humanity faces on multiple levels.

It has been said that the greatest loss in life is not death; the greatest loss in life is what dies inside of us while we are alive.

Chew on that.
