Oppression too much or too little…A
short story
This is my country and we have
the right to speak freely as guaranteed by the constitution.
So am airing my oppressed
grievances—racial, religious, and political they may be.
My ancestors were white and then
there was one that was black. (Might have been more hidden with the skeletons
in the closet or was that my gay cousin?) My ancestors were slaves. Well
actually they were share-croppers. Well actually they were step-sons of an old
reprobate plantation owner on the Mississippi Delta. Mr. Charlie A. (pre-WW II)
would strap his step sons to the plow to pull when it came time for cotton seed
planting. But their oppression has really opened up my eyes. Because of their
oppression in having to be mules, it has trickled down in my lifestyle.
My ancestor, also
African-American (high yellow French), was so oppressed when she sailed from
Canada to New Orleans for a better life, she lied about her race so she could
help populate a bunch of white children in Mississippi racists. This too has
trickled down in my lifestyle.
My ancestors were so oppressed in
Ireland, that the history in the USA is a totally fabricated. He didn’t leave
Ireland peacefully, he left as a wanted man for murder of his landlord.
Landlord got drunk, wounded his wife and shooting her brother while he had a
high fever in bed. You guessed he fled to the colonies on the fasted ship he
could find with his sons, who happen to be noted Revolutionary soldiers under
the command of George Washington. Of
course, this oppression has trickled down to cause me great anguish.
My ancestors were so discriminated
against, the (three women in three different states) couldn’t open up a bank
account until their husbands approved and said it was okay. This was really
terrible to say the least and has left me psychological oppressed and damaged
all the same.
My descendants are oppressed
because they are confused about the cultural appropriated society we all live
in and haven’t a clue what country this is until someone says, “Good morning.”
Two are haven’t got a clue, three are Vietnamese, and two Hispanic. The “I
haven’t got a clue what I am” dates a Cuban who calls herself Caribbean Islander.
Just say yes and agree because I still don’t understand what she is saying. The
“I haven’t got a clue what I am” is married to a full fledge Texas born
Hispanic. They have two children – one brown eyed and one blue eyed. They are
looking forward to being oppressed. I will make sure of it. They will be
oppressed because we crack enough “wetback border jokes or swimming the Rio jokes” to last a lifetime.
The three Vietnamese are
oppressed most definitely. Two look Hispanic and speak Spanish fluently and the
third looks like a skinny white boy who is practices free style martial arts (I
should say Martian Arts.) He is the little skinny runt of the group, mean as a
yard dog, but sweet as a playful puppy unless you mess with him. He is the odd
man out because he looks totally European white. Their mother associated with a
full Hispanic raised religious racists Nazi trained skin head who broke loose
of his cultural rearing to be very benevolent until you mention certain races
or religions. Then he just cusses under
his breath and walks away.
I am truly oppressed for the
following reasons and need reparation:
1.
I have a question mental status based on my ancestors
and descendants
2. Since I have been on social media (i.e.
Facebook) I have been noted as an evil anti-Christian, mean spirited,
un-American, socialist, stupid bitch, liberal, hateful, racists, Bible thumper,
misogynistic (yes, I said it and yes, I am a female) idiot, stupid, ignorant,
fool, dumbass, liar, and much more. (If I believed any of these names I would
surely be oppressed.)
I am oppressed because this
entire word “oppressed” makes no sense in modern day America. A person is
oppressed if they allow themselves to be and feel oppressed. Everybody has a
cause! Well, I for one, feel there are too many causes for the good of any
society to function with some sort of normal cohesiveness. It is to the point
of being ridiculous. I will have to put the blame of over 60% on the media and people
who just want to get their jollies off playing with actual ignorance of society
in general—mean pranksters with nothing better to do than drum up emotional
drama. We have a sense now, that when one falsehood is told it is repeated
until it becomes truth. Leaving many a person confused as to what is the truth.
The truth is that everybody puts
their pants on the same, one leg at a time. Everyone eats the same with their
mouth unless they are medically unable to. Everyone in America at one point a
day, sits on a toilet unless they wear diapers or medically unable to. Everyone enjoys the same freedoms as
guaranteed in the constitution. In America, everyone would like to enjoy a
peaceful existence, work and feed their families accordingly. Some have it
harder than others.
Bottom line. Be:
Humble
Do
not be so proud that you consider yourself better
It
is lonely at the top of perfect and farther to the fall when you hit the ground
Benevolent
Giving
to each other in need means the returns will be great when we least expect it
Humanity in actions make a
difference
Respect
Being
tactful isn’t politically correct, it is respect for others
Speaking wrong can be hurtful
possibly to someone you love very dearly
Liberal,
conservative, etc., name calling doesn’t show respect for yourself or others
Tolerance
Be
tolerant of others ignorance, unlearned ideology, or unusual simple behavior
No
one is perfect
Everyone
is different and deserves a chance
God bless you all and go with God
in your hearts and soul.
