As Tom Wolfe pointed out in 1987, one of the obsessions our age is Plaques for Blacks. In Bonfire of the Vanities, the Mayor of New York winces everytime he asks his chief of staff what’s on the schedule today and his aide answers “Plaques for Blacks.”

From USA Today:

Jussie Smollett is nominated for an NAACP Award, and host Anthony Anderson hopes he wins
Hannah Yasharoff, USA TODAY Published 12:08 p.m. ET March 28, 2019 |

Just days after the prosecutors dropped all charges against Jussie Smollett, who had been indicted on 16 counts of disorderly conduct, the “Empire” actor could again make headlines.

Smollett is nominated for the 2019 NAACP Image Awards, scheduled for Saturday.

The NAACP Image Awards is a do-it-yourself Plaques for Blacks operation, which seems like a good thing, although it doesn’t seem to actually relieve pressure on other awards ceremonies to give blacks more prizes, which is why, for example, Tina Tchen, Honorary Black Woman, heads the Grammy Awards’ task force investigating why Beyonce doesn’t win all the Grammys.

Nominations were announced on February 13, just a day or two before the Smollett story fell apart due to the Nigerian bodybuilder brothers.

Six-time host and “Black-ish” star Anthony Anderson told Variety on Wednesday that he hopes to see the controversial actor there.

“I hope he wins,” Anderson added. “I’m happy for him that the system worked for him in his favor because the system isn’t always fair, especially for people of color. So I’m glad it worked out for him.”

In other words: Jussie deserves to win his plaque to make up for poor Philando Castile getting shot in Minnesota in 2016.

In general, this seems to be a characteristic type of logic of this decade: various celebrities deserve to be compensated for bad things that have happened to non-celebrities of their identity group.

    This is what got OJ off the hook. And instead of Castille it was Rodney King.

    Oprah was one of the few blacks who saw OJ as guilty from the beginning and in 2010 she interviewed "the evil white cop" Mark Fuhrman of OJ case in a surprisingly friendly manner.

    Teen boys rated their female classmates based on looks. The girls fought back.

    Ya got to understan, it’s completely unnatural for teen boys to evaluate the appearance of the young women around them. That never happened before the Patriarchy started making pornography in 1953.

    It included the names of 18 girls in the Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School’s International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, ranked and rated on the basis of their looks, from 5.5 to 9.4, with decimal points to the hundredth place. There, with a number beside it, was Behbehani’s name.

    TENDIES ON THE GROUND. The first decimal place is tenths: that’s actually why we call it that, decima being ten in Dead White Male who’s better at math than WaPo journalists. If they were to the hundredths place, which is surely a critical detail without which this important news about teenage gossip simply cannot be broadcast, then just print that without the explanation (eg, 5.43).

    A group* of male students in their program created the list more than a year ago, but it resurfaced earlier this month, through text messages and whispers during class. One male classmate, seeing the name of his good friend Nicky Schmidt on the list, told her about it, and within 24 hours, dozens of girls had heard about the list.

    Truly, democracy dies in darkness. I hope babykillers reading this critical information will get down on their lazy knees and/or prosthetics and thank the true heroes at the Bezos Blog for telling us about gossiping teenagers.
    *What do you want to bet it was a multi-word rhyming title ending in “committee”?

    But it was happening now, in the era of the #MeToo movement.

    Every year more and more young people volunteer to serve in the koloniya. Also, it’s not happening now, it’s being dug up now, like that one disgraceful pope did to a dead enemy.

    But there is power in numbers, too. Dozens of senior girls decided to speak up to the school administration and to their male classmates, demanding not only disciplinary action in response to the list but a schoolwide reckoning about the toxic culture that allowed it to happen.

    Good, I hope they go to prison.

    That same Monday, a group of girls reported the list to an administrator, who encouraged the students not to talk about it around school, Schmidt said. The next day, the girls learned that after an investigation, school officials decided to discipline one male student with in-school detention for one day, which would not show up on his record.

    Unsatisfied with the disciplinary action, Schmidt texted about 15 girls she knew, and told them to tell all of their friends to show up at the school’s main office the next day during lunch, “to tell them we feel unsafe in this environment and we are tired of this toxicity,” Schmidt wrote in her text.

    Good, they hope they go to prison.

    That Friday, on International Women’s Day, almost all of the students in the IB program — about 80 students — met in a large conference room for what was supposed to be a 45-minute meeting during fifth period.
    Instead, the meeting lasted two and a half hours. Several girls delivered personal and impassioned speeches describing not only their presence on the list but also their previous experiences with sexual abuse, harassment and objectification, both inside the school and outside of it.

    Give these girls diplomas, they have already mastered the only thing they will ever contribute to the world — interminable meetings.

    Do they not mean that the highest and lowest scores were 5.50 and 9.40, but some of the intermediate scores went to two decimal places? That's what I assumed... but then, why truncate the zeros?

    In fact, why include the scores at all? If the point the author wished to make was that the boys's objectification was to an absurd degree, why not merely mention the degree of precision - "decimals points to the hundredth place" - and leave out the range of scores?

    Now the girls at neighbouring schools will be all over Facebook trying to figure out which ugly bitch got 5.5, and the boys will be doing the same for whoever got 9.4.

    Some years ago, a female student at Duke University made a PowerPoint presentation - a "f**k list" - in which she rated the sexual prowess of various student-athletes* with whom she had copulated.

    She sent the list to a couple of friends, assuming that they would keep it to themselves. One of them ended up sharing it with the world.

  15. I was seated on a bus when a light-skinned black girl standing next to me began playing her monkey music next to my ear. When I told her to play with her phone somewhere else she immediately took offense, and when it was evident I didn’t give a damn she muttered something about me needing to learn manners.

    What struck me there and then was that blacks just feel too entitled, from a very young age, and there’s no coming back from that. We’re stuck now with an entire up-and-coming generation of blacks who have absorbed the vocabulary of civilized behavior, but have no idea what constitutes such behavior. They imagine instead that whatever they do instinctually is good; whoever questions them is bad.

    Once inculcated, moral sentiments—even perverse ones—are forever. No amount of re-education will correct them; no moral epiphany will make them fit for a high-trust, civil society. Smollett, who insists that we view back-room maneuvering as exoneration—and who will surely be supported in that fantasy by our sick elites—is just one example of black moral shallowness. There are millions more like him out there.

    Art Deco characterized the the modern black sense of entitlement, e.g., that Trayvon Martin had a right to thrash the neighborhood watch peasant, as embodying an "absolutely Bourbon conception of social relations".

    I thought that was apt. They deserve every award. No one may gainsay them, much less strike them. They may not be dis[respect]ed. If they come to your village/neighborhood, you should not have left. If you did leave, you may not come back. You may not desist paying tribute into their welfare state.

    The left may regard blacks as sacred, but to them this entitlement has been internalized as being aristocratic, even royal, hence Kangz and Kweenz.

    The striking thing about that case was how unembarrassed for herself the authoress was. She genuinely thought she had embarrassed the jocks who had sexually conquered her, who had probably been happily about it and now were getting it publicly confirmed. By contrast, everyone reading it thought, man what a skank this chick is. Really un-self-aware.

    Now the girls at neighbouring schools will be all over Facebook trying to figure out which ugly bitch got 5.5, and the boys will be doing the same for whoever got 9.4.

    Teen boys rated their female classmates based on looks. The girls fought back.

     

    Ya got to understan, it's completely unnatural for teen boys to evaluate the appearance of the young women around them. That never happened before the Patriarchy started making pornography in 1953.

    It included the names of 18 girls in the Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School’s International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme, ranked and rated on the basis of their looks, from 5.5 to 9.4, with decimal points to the hundredth place. There, with a number beside it, was Behbehani’s name.
     
    TENDIES ON THE GROUND. The first decimal place is tenths: that's actually why we call it that, decima being ten in Dead White Male who's better at math than WaPo journalists. If they were to the hundredths place, which is surely a critical detail without which this important news about teenage gossip simply cannot be broadcast, then just print that without the explanation (eg, 5.43).

    A group* of male students in their program created the list more than a year ago, but it resurfaced earlier this month, through text messages and whispers during class. One male classmate, seeing the name of his good friend Nicky Schmidt on the list, told her about it, and within 24 hours, dozens of girls had heard about the list.
     
    Truly, democracy dies in darkness. I hope babykillers reading this critical information will get down on their lazy knees and/or prosthetics and thank the true heroes at the Bezos Blog for telling us about gossiping teenagers.
    *What do you want to bet it was a multi-word rhyming title ending in "committee"?

    But it was happening now, in the era of the #MeToo movement.
     
    Every year more and more young people volunteer to serve in the koloniya. Also, it's not happening now, it's being dug up now, like that one disgraceful pope did to a dead enemy.

    But there is power in numbers, too. Dozens of senior girls decided to speak up to the school administration and to their male classmates, demanding not only disciplinary action in response to the list but a schoolwide reckoning about the toxic culture that allowed it to happen.
     
    Good, I hope they go to prison.

    That same Monday, a group of girls reported the list to an administrator, who encouraged the students not to talk about it around school, Schmidt said. The next day, the girls learned that after an investigation, school officials decided to discipline one male student with in-school detention for one day, which would not show up on his record.
    ...
    Unsatisfied with the disciplinary action, Schmidt texted about 15 girls she knew, and told them to tell all of their friends to show up at the school’s main office the next day during lunch, “to tell them we feel unsafe in this environment and we are tired of this toxicity,” Schmidt wrote in her text.

     

    Good, they hope they go to prison.

    That Friday, on International Women’s Day, almost all of the students in the IB program — about 80 students — met in a large conference room for what was supposed to be a 45-minute meeting during fifth period.
    Instead, the meeting lasted two and a half hours. Several girls delivered personal and impassioned speeches describing not only their presence on the list but also their previous experiences with sexual abuse, harassment and objectification, both inside the school and outside of it.

     

    Give these girls diplomas, they have already mastered the only thing they will ever contribute to the world -- interminable meetings.

    I was seated on a bus when a light-skinned black girl standing next to me began playing her monkey music next to my ear. When I told her to play with her phone somewhere else she immediately took offense, and when it was evident I didn’t give a damn she muttered something about me needing to learn manners.

    What struck me there and then was that blacks just feel too entitled, from a very young age, and there’s no coming back from that. We’re stuck now with an entire up-and-coming generation of blacks who have absorbed the vocabulary of civilized behavior, but have no idea what constitutes such behavior. They imagine instead that whatever they do instinctually is good; whoever questions them is bad.

    Once inculcated, moral sentiments—even perverse ones—are forever. No amount of re-education will correct them; no moral epiphany will make them fit for a high-trust, civil society. Smollett, who insists that we view back-room maneuvering as exoneration—and who will surely be supported in that fantasy by our sick elites—is just one example of black moral shallowness. There are millions more like him out there.

    Art Deco characterized the the modern black sense of entitlement, e.g., that Trayvon Martin had a right to thrash the neighborhood watch peasant, as embodying an “absolutely Bourbon conception of social relations”.

    I thought that was apt. They deserve every award. No one may gainsay them, much less strike them. They may not be dis[respect]ed. If they come to your village/neighborhood, you should not have left. If you did leave, you may not come back. You may not desist paying tribute into their welfare state.

    The left may regard blacks as sacred, but to them this entitlement has been internalized as being aristocratic, even royal, hence Kangz and Kweenz.

    So I guess at this point we are awaiting the next French Revolution.

    Some years ago, a female student at Duke University made a PowerPoint presentation - a "f**k list" - in which she rated the sexual prowess of various student-athletes* with whom she had copulated.

    She sent the list to a couple of friends, assuming that they would keep it to themselves. One of them ended up sharing it with the world.

    The striking thing about that case was how unembarrassed for herself the authoress was. She genuinely thought she had embarrassed the jocks who had sexually conquered her, who had probably been happily about it and now were getting it publicly confirmed. By contrast, everyone reading it thought, man what a skank this chick is. Really un-self-aware.
