idiot idolatry

I have come to concede that it is not the H1N1 or HIV that is the scourge of American culture, but rather ignorance. And not any ignorance, but the blinded kind that is accentuated by our inundation with celebrity. And I’m not gonna hat, for the simple reason although I don’t understand why someone would want to watch a person get a moon man over the first day of NFL football, I do accept that accidents happen.

It is just strange to me that folk all up in arms when someone they see on TV or a movie screen die than they are the economy, something that actually impacts me, or stick up for a person with no home training as the obvious case with Joe Wilson or Kanye West and not even talk or assert caring about how Wall Street Corporate CEOS aint been indicted or held accountable for getting us in this economic quandary. And yea, you can quote me, “I don’t give a fuck about Bich azz Kanye West “ and I think any person who would support is 4th grade behavior is a feculent groupie or fool and likely look at TV more than they read. I tell you this, if he took the mic from my son or daughter, he would have his teeth kicked down his throat again.

I say this just to use my professional expertise to assert that we have become a nation of idiots as a result of our incessant Idolatry. We have lost our way, we move from Martin King Jr. to getting a black man in the office of the Presidency, to just being happy that he is there and feeling that we do not need to struggle anymore as if we have succeeded. We have not and some folks inability to care is worse than the actually commitment of the crime for more times than not, they will be the first to complain without being informed. Such saddens me. To me Hank Greenberg needs to be under the jail and even worse that folk wont know who he is but know about dirty dance dude who died, how many songs on Jay – Z new album and Kayne West bich azz antic on a movie awards show.

So Yawl can say what yawl want about me. I don’t know or care about none of these folks don’t know like or as if I know them. In fact the only celebrities I know are my kids and my family. If yawl were about anything you would be talking about the ones you love more than these other folk even Michael Jackson. That is just really real from folk here jones.

The Dumbing Down Of America is no longer a rumor, it's in full effect mode, for reals.

So many more people need to read your blog.

There are no true news outlets anymore, it's all "infotainment" that caters to the right or left wing extremes of the mindless party line voters.

I have celebrities that are very big inspirations but even they dont take themselves that seriously..im talking about patti labelle and della reese...my 2 biggest inspirations. I like them because they dont idolize others, they make it clear that they are just ordinary people and never once have i heard of either of them coming out the mouth with that hot headed celebrity crap. I think that we normally always go for the dumbest people in the world to be in charge.

LIke that damn MEGAN FOX...that bitch just needs to sew her mouth shut and they worship her! Its just so stupid that people are always worshiping people that have not contributed a thing to society! They sing about their asses being fat and their coochies extra wet..then when the 15 mins is up and all 30 million spent..not one dollar was spent on getting higher education so u can have something to fall back on!

Thats my biggest issue with most celebs. They could get most of the education that they need, but no, they would rather just blow all of their money and be left for broke!


Ugh america...i dont even know what to say anymore for this country! ESP SINCE THEY CANCELED READING RAINBOW!! GUESS ALL THE KIDS CAN WATCH SOUTH PARK NOW!

Its sad as overseas the phrase 'dumb americans' pops up so often.

Im glad that you dont fit in with that sterotype

Kayne would have never done that to a guy.

As my nana always told me, a fool is easy to see because he makes it known.

And many will remain foolish if they follow in the footsteps of these supposed "heroes".

I agree.

Robyn said...

aww see, i missed you for sure...


if we stay fat and happy feeding and INVESTING our selves into all the ish that doesnt matter then we can swallow any ole crap dangled in front of us...

and yet, there's a wave of folk out there willing to die and live for truth. willing to invest their lives for something unseen and out of reach...

Keli said...

I will say that I'm into Pop Culture...sometimes it's my escape, but from what? No running from reality.

The crazy thing is, Serena and Kanye have been reprimanded and berated by the public, yet Joe Wilson is really the only one who's actions broke policy, yet he has yet to have to be held accountable...

here is the thing...Wilson was the GOP's scapegoat...attention has been diverted...
When was the last time you heard a report on health care?

Thus the problem...too many of us rely on television outlets as our educational sources...the information is biased and you're not getting the facts...

if we educate our selves better, we'll do better.

Hey Dawg,

Hope you and the young uns are doing fine.

I agree that America has been stupidized. But, to give most of us some credit, it took decades of propaganda on TV and the Radio to get us here.

There has always been stupidity in America. Why? Because the Elitists want us stupid so we cannot think about the situation they have put us in (quiet servitude).

BuelahLady and I were discussing the stupidity in America today and we are amazed that it has gone so far without anger and true revolt.

It is coming. Eventually.

The USA books are opened at the end of Sept, along with the commercial laon default debacle coming that will dwarf the last TARP deal.

Add that to bogus vaccines and bogus swine flus and the people should get pissed.

But I have little faith in Americans anymore to do what is right.

We are too fucking stupid.

PS: Kanya West is an uncouth prick.

At least Beyonce gave the white chick a chance to speak when she was given an award. That was classy.

But I will also admit that as far as I remember, I have never heard a single song by any of them.
