Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Ta-Nehisi Coates Cribs From Gary Gygax For His Latest Essay Saying The Same Thing As All His Other EssaysWhen Ta-Nehisi Coates isn't writing racist diatribes against White Devils for The Atlantic, he's writing racist diatribes against White Devils for Marvel Comics. They gave him a gig writing Black Panther and another book, Black Panther and the Crew, based on his long experience of and passion for Not Being White. Black Panther and the Crew was cancelled at issue 2, though six issues had already been written. It's also an astonishingly racist title, probably the most racist book published by a formerly mainstream entertainment company. If you don't believe me, check out this video, in which Black Panther recruits an all-black team of superheroes (who, by the way, Coates turns into racists) who team up to fight the greatest evil in the world: White interlopers moving into Harlem. At one point he writes Storm -- hitherto not written as a black separatist racist -- cracking about white people moving into Harlem, "I can smell the mayonnaise trucks already." If you didn't know, black people knocking white people about mayonnaise is like white people knocking black people about, I don't know, fried chicken. Black people often declare they hate mayonnaise, and that they don't get why white people eat it. Which is fine -- a bit of light joshing won't hurt anyone -- but when such a crack is deployed in a book that portrays white people as evil for "invading" Harlem, it takes on a much more hateful and derogatory air. This video reviews Black Panther and his gang of super-powered black separatist racist continuing their fight against white people moving into Harlem, and in this one, if I remember right, the masterminds behind the idea that White Devils are permitted to move into sacred Harlem are revealed: the Nazi-like group HYDRA, naturally. Spoiler alert. Ta-Nehisi Coates continues being rewarded for his schtick, which is, in the guise of being anti-racist, he spouts off as an out-and-proud racist, but it's okay, because he hates White Devils, who really are an inferior race. Now in the Atlantic he declares Trump the "first White president," and shows off those writing chops that so impressed the political propaganda company formerly known as Marvel Comics. It's all a hoot, but let me boldface the most pubescently purple prose:Cf. Monster Manual, page 99 and infra. N.B. this amulet will show a visible dweomer if Detect Magic is cast; Qqv. the lich's phylactery or the Mummy Lord's canopic jars. By the way, if you're not getting all those musty, archaic, academic and/or legal looking cross-referencing abbreviations, Gary Gygax littered his books with them (see, e.g., the Dungeon Masters Guide, most notoriously, et al.). By the way, no one reading Ta-Nehisi's books would ever say "My goodness, that guy is working twice as hard as the average white writer." They would wonder if he's working a quarter as hard as the average writer, or if he's just a talentless political hire. To claim that "white supremacy" permits white people to work "half as hard" as blacks is, get this, racist. Try it around the opposite way and see how that sounds. But that's the whole point of racism -- you are claiming one race is superior and therefore permitted greater liberties and opportunities, and/or another race is inferior and therefore deserving of lesser respect and fewer liberties. Some say Ta-Nehisi Coates is an expert on racism. I agree. He got his Ph.D. in racism not through study, but through practical experience putting theory into practice. Ta-Nehisi Coates, who works twice as hard as the average writer to get his racist books cancelled twice as fast, will now deploy the n-word a whole bunch, which I will obscure by replacing letters with asterisks, because he gets paid to drop n-bombs, whereas members of Inferior Races instead get advertiser boycotts and website bannings. ... Replacing Obama is not enough--Trump has made the negation of Obama's legacy the foundation of his own. And this too is whiteness. "Race is an idea, not a fact," the historian Nell Irvin Painter has written, and essential to the construct of a "white race" is the idea of not being a n***er. Before Barack Obama, n***ers could be manufactured out of Sister Souljahs, Willie Hortons, and Dusky Sallys. But Donald Trump arrived in the wake of something more potent--an entire n***er presidency with n***er health care, n***er climate accords, and n***er justice reform, all of which could be targeted for destruction or redemption, thus reifying the idea of being white. Trump truly is something new--the first president whose entire political existence hinges on the fact of a black president. And so it will not suffice to say that Trump is a white man like all the others who rose to become president. He must be called by his rightful honorific--America's first white president.Ta-Nehisi Coates plays this game where he denies there is such a thing as a "white race" at all, but then alternates that with attacking whites. If whites as a race don't exist -- fine, but then why did you write a whole comic book title about the white race "invading" Harlem by paying rent to live there? It's a clown-nose on, clown-nose off thing with him: He can defend against charges of racism by claiming "Hey, I'm not against white people, but whiteness itself, which I maintain doesn't even exist," and the write fantasy revenge stories about black separatist superheroes fighting white people just renting a condo. But that's not what I wanted to talk about. What I wanted to talk about was Ben Domenech seizing on Ta-Nehisi Coates' Dungeons & Dragons fanfic writing style, and parodying it. Taking Coates' luridly stupid line -- "Whereas his forebears carried whiteness like an ancestral talisman, Trump cracked the glowing amulet open, releasing its eldritch energies." -- Domenech just went off in this thread. The whole thread is worth reading, but here are some of my favorites.

On a non-comedy tangent, my DD group has a pretty interesting racial mix, and we've discussed racism in a DD context before.
We figured that humans would be less racist towards other humans because most of their racism would be directed at the demi-human races - gnomes, elves, halflings and dwarves in particular, but also orcs and ogres and such. Of course we also had a character in D20 Modern who played a blaxplotation-parody character trying to take down 'The Man,' so maybe we're not the best fit to opine on the subject.

I think it's fair to point out that blacks have been treated poorly for much of American history. I think it's fair to say that even today they suffer from lower standards of living and education and so on. I think we can admit those things and resolve those issues without resorting to Marxism, and without detracting from the fact that America was and is the greatest hope for human freedom to ever exist on this planet. So my personal beliefs are not at all subdued by the concurrent belief that things can be done to improve black communities.
But then some jackass like Ta-Nehisi Coates comes along, not offering solutions to the problems in those communities, but simply playing the victim and demanding we all acknowledge how hard they have it. And then confess that people like me have it terribly easy in life, as if our accomplishments and struggles don't really count, because white privilege! Well, whatever, guy. Fuck any conversation or solutions we might have. Enjoy the status quo! Posted by: CPT11A at September 08, 2017 04:27 PM (2OS9i) 159

>>>o the prince of an ancient hidden African kingdom is worried about gentrification in Harlem? That's funny.
yeah, the Diversity and Comics guy points that out -- many of the characters in this black separatist super-"hero" group have almost no connection to Harlem at all, and yet are fanatically dedicated to defending its "borders" against white invaders. Storm is a princess from Africa, Black Panther is a King from Africa. If they spent any time in Harlem before, it was of very short duration. But for some reason, black kings and princesses from a different continent have decided that defending harlem is now priority A-#1. oh, and I haven't been to Harlem in a while, but this video guy says that it's not like the 70s anymore, and is already fairly integrated (note Bill Clinton's office is there), and if Ta-Neheshi Coates wants to fight for Harlem's black racial purity, he should have started doing so 30 years ago.

"Race is an idea, not a fact," the historian Nell Irvin Painter has written, and essential to the construct of a "white race" is the idea of not being a n***er. "
Do these idiots realize that Europe developed a white Christian civilization long before slaves ever set foot in America? The construct of Western Civilization is based on the legacy of both Greco-Romanism and Judeo-Christianity. Africans had fuck all to do with that.

Yeah, I don't get the mayonnaise thing. I sure don't see any difference in mayo usage between blacks and whites around here (SW VA) but maybe there is (or once was) a marked difference in NYC.
It's like the stereotype of blacks liking fried chicken and watermelon, which were SOUTHERN things, not black. But when piles of black southerners moved up north, the northerners associated them with the race rather than the region. Likewise with "soul food," which is just poor-southerner food and not distinctively black. Posted by: Margarita DeVille at September 08, 2017 04:31 PM (0jtPF) 183

yeah, the Diversity and Comics guy points that out -- many of the characters in this black separatist super-"hero" group have almost no connection to Harlem at all, and yet are fanatically dedicated to defending its "borders" against white invaders.

Nope. It was farmland until the late 1800s. In the 1880s, elevated rail lines were moving that direction and speculators built a bunch of row houses and tenements because they suspected people would move in. Then a recession hit. The speculators got stuck with property on their hands that nobody was buying. The speculators were approached by a Real Estate guy named Payton who suggested he could fill their properties with black people. The speculators jumped at the chance. From that point to the late 70s it was an almost entirely black neighborhood.

From Wikipedia's Harlem entry:
"Following the Civil War, poor Jews and poor Italians were the predominant demographic in Harlem. African-American residents began to arrive in large numbers in 1905 as part of the Great Migration." Note the original words to "Puttin' on the Ritz": "If you're blue and you don't know Where to go to why don't you go Where Harlem flits? Puttin' on the Ritz!" Which I wasn't sure was meant as a poke at black people because the neighborhood changed from 1929 to Berlin changing the words in the '50s/60s. But then I remembered those other lines: "Spangled Gowns upon the bevy of High browns from down the levy All misfits" That gown/brown rhyme was common in the '20s.

"Obama worked twice as hard" is one of Ta-Neheshi-Fo-Sheezy's favorite phrases. Shows up all over the place in his writing. And, I mean, there's merit to the idea that some black people - in particular those who were raised in poverty and under nakedly racist governments - had to toil more than rich white kids to achieve the same results.
But Obama? Please. He's probably the laziest person ever to become president. He breezed and charmed his way through life. He never did any actual work. Cf.

Ace,
I drive through Harlem occasionally (when the West Side Highway or the FDR is a parking lot), and it is indeed fairly integrated. But the people I see a lot of are boring middle-class Blacks, otherwise known as "Americans." They seem to fit in well with all of the other boring middle class people who moved to Harlem because of its more reasonable housing costs when Giuliani made the entire city safe. There are still some bargains to be had in upper Harlem, but it is becoming pricier. Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at September 08, 2017 04:56 PM (wYseH) 373

For years in this industry, whenever an African American character, hero or villain, was introduced - usually by *white* artists and writers - they got slapped with racist names that singled them out as Negroes. Now, my book, "White-Hatin' Coon," don't have none of that bullshit. The hero's name is Maleekwa, and he's a descendant from the black tribe that established the first society on the planet, while all you European motherfuckers were still hiding in caves and shit, all terrified of the sun. He's a strong role model that a young black reader can look up to. 'Cause I'm here to tell you, the chickens is coming home to roost, y'all. The black man's no longer gonna play the minstrel in the medium of comics and sci-fi fantasy. We keepin' it real, and we gonna get respect by any means necessary.

Race neutrality is just that, race neutrality. It doesn't mean being blind to race it just means that you don't use somebody's race against them or for their benefit. That is a rule of a polite Society. I grew up with that rule, and I practice it. However, if someone else is not going to practice that rule and they are going to use my race as a weapon against me, you better damn well believe that I'm going to play by their rules and rub that shit up their nostrils. So if an out and proud black racist like this asshole thinks that he's going to do it and simply walk away from it, he is grossly misinformed. This is why the biggest racist in this country in this day and age are black people, purely because they get away with it. You know and I know a white guy that ran his mouth like this would be shot from CNN and Marvel like they were a cannonball. This guy gets paid and gets an outlet to spew his shit. He needs silenced. He needs fired. And it's long past time that Marvel and CNN got mobbed with complaints to put his happy ass back on unemployment.

I don't know. I'm willing to buy that he has a higher IQ,
Posted by: JoeF. at September 08, 2017 05:06 PM (7uYFy) The moment Barky said "profit AND earnings ratios" for P/E you knew that his IQ was sub-90. No one ... and I mean NO ONE who made it through 5th grade says "AND" for division or a ratio. That was a big clue that his math SAT score was 400, at best.

I still am wondering about the mayo stereotype, which I take to be a regional, perhaps local, thing.
Mayo was not a common condiment until the 40's or so, was it? 30's? You pretty much have to have good refrigeration to keep a jar of mayo around. Posted by: Margarita DeVille at September 08, 2017 05:14 PM (0jtPF) 475

bonhomme: "I'm convinced Obama is at most a 101 IQ and it seems like his followers would put him at 180+."
Some did. Literally. Historian Michael Beschloss to Don Imus: Historian Michael Beschloss: Uh. I would say it's probably - he's probably the smartest guy ever to become President. Imus: That's not what I asked you. I asked you what his IQ was. Beschloss: You know that I don't know and I'd have to find someone with more expertise... Imus: You don't know. So an acclaimed (I guess, who knows?) member of the educated class simply makes up BS not expecting to be called on it because of credentialism. Simply invented nonsense out of thin air, wishcasting for his god. Posted by: AnonymousDrivel at September 08, 2017 05:16 PM (H8S+R) 485

Yes, the leftists are all putting out "I'm with her" bumper stickers on their doors so that Mother Nature doesn't mistakenly blast them to smithereens. This is as disagreeable as Some Evangelical Christians who insist that Hurricane Katrina was a judgment on New Orleans because of sinful people in New Orleans. People rightly lambasted who ever said that about Katrina but don't mind using the same sort of idea with Mother Nature.

I only put mustard, ketchup (or chili sauce), onions and relish on a hotdog (stackers will do in a pinch) But she was getting out the mayonnaise to put on a hotdog.

Because while i think God could control the weather (Jesus stilled the storm) I don't think God generally does that. God created nature and basically left it on its own and i think it's utterly simplistic , presumptuous and unmerciful to say "God hit New Orleans with a Hurricane because of sinful people" as It doesn't make it any better to claim Mother nature is doing the same thing because people voted for Trump. The Jews were kept in bondage. Because Trump wants to protect the border or didn't sign the influential God is pissed?

"... trump has made the negation of obama's legacy the foundation of his own..." because obama is black.
i think this is a commonly held belief among blacks. i recently saw a reporter interview people outside a whole foods store about trump's fda withdrawing obama-era expansion of ingredient listing of food. a young black father said it was because obama is black and trump wants to erase everything obama did. what's interesting is that obama did almost nothing for blacks and is universally loved by that cohort; i guess it shouldn't be surprising. trump may well foo much more for them and be just as universally hated Posted by: musical jolly chimp at September 08, 2017 05:31 PM (AxFdW) Posted by: DaveA at September 08, 2017 05:31 PM (FhXTo) 502
