To live in 21st-century America is to be pushed to believe in lies and to watch the societal infrastructure get pulled down by do-gooders. One of the biggest lies we’re expected to swallow is the idea that America is “systemically racist” against black people. Since the mid-2010s, and exacerbated by the death of George Floyd and the rise of Black Lives Matter, media and Democrat politicians have shouted at the top of their lungs that white people have their fellow black Americans under a crushing boot.
It’s outrageous because it’s so obviously backward. Black Americans have been raised to the status of an untouchable sacred caste, while white Americans have to suffer being called racists and oppressors simply for noticing or saying “ouch” when they get mugged.
Open any social media platform, and you’ll be treated to countless videos of black mobs holding up stores, engaging in organized robbery and shoplifting, and assaulting white people with zero consequences.

The U.S. Supreme Court overturned affirmative action in colleges, but evidence suggests universities are still admitting black students who are demonstrably less qualified than white applicants. As predicted, Ivies like Cornell are getting around the ban by renaming the practice.
Somehow, the country fell asleep at the wheel and forgot everything it claimed to learn from civil rights leader Martin Luther King, who said character, not color, was what mattered. Today, our politicians and policy wonks follow the prescription of low-brow-but-popular “thinkers” like woke black radical Ibram X. Kendi, who says, “The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination.”
Police departments have been gutted in cities across the country, and states like California have essentially legalized shoplifting unless it gets up to about $1,000 in value.
New York City appears to be giving up on civic law and order completely. I can barely believe I’m writing this, but I am: New York City just legalized jaywalking. Why? Because of “racial disparities.” What does that mean? It means that because black people got caught jaywalking more than other groups, that New York was “doing a racism” to them.
It’s necessary to spell it right out: you are not allowed to notice or react to black people displaying disproportionate criminality. If you do, you’re a racist. Black people are not allowed to be thought of as criminals, called criminals, or punished for criminal behavior.
The standards get lowered until they’re gone.

You read that right. As per CBS:
Your average New Yorker is no stranger to jaywalking, which has been illegal since 1958. That’s about to change. Starting in February, New Yorkers will no longer be breaking the law when crossing the street in between traffic, and will no longer receive a fine for jaywalking.
The City Council has been working to decriminalize jaywalking, which is something nearly every New Yorker does.
“In 2023, over 92% of jaywalking citations went to Black and Latino New Yorkers, highlighting an unacceptable disparity. The bill changes that by removing criminal penalties, ensuring everyone is treated fairly, regardless of race or backgroud,” said Councilmember Mercedes Narcisse, who sponsored the legislation. “Police officers have shared with me they prefer to focus on true public safety efforts, not issuing tickets for crossing the street.”
Let’s see the reaction from X users. First up, Elon Musk himself.
Jaywalking in NY is normal, so probably shouldn’t be illegal, but that is a weird reason to make it legal

Everyone in 3rd world county jaywalks all day every day because there are no rules. It’s just mayhem, this is to accommodate the millions of illegal migrants imported by Democrats and transform our country into the poverty hell holes like the ones they came from
