For Leftwits, “racism” is everywhere. And I do mean EVERYWHERE.
Think you’ve heard it all concerning Critical Race Theory? Take a seat.
If you thought Marxist-derived CRT was only related to the behavior, attitudes, and actions of white people against people of color, you were sorely mistaken. Turns out, the interiors of the homes of white people are likely “racist” as well. The solution? “Decolonization” of interior spaces. No, really.
Here’s architecture author Aaron Betsky, who’s written more than 20 books on the subject and believes architecture should be taught through the lens of CRT:
We cannot turn away from the fact that many of the structures we hold up as examples, like Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello, were instruments of oppression, rape, and forced labor, and that even what we think of as neutral models, in whatever style, were…built [as] affirmation of wealth built on violence.
What we also must recognize is that the forms we think of as ‘good’ architecture, from the layout of our houses and offices to the white columns that festoon classical buildings, cement the culture of whiteness, based on European models, in stone, concrete, wood, glass, and steel.
Lunacy? Of course. But when has lunacy stopped the left — from getting even loonier?
According to interior designer Jacquelyn Ogorchukwu Iyamah, people can creatively resist “structures of domination in their homes by challenging themselves to think about the various ways that politics are embedded into the built environment and encouraging more ‘racial wellness’ within the spaces they create” — particularly concerning the objects they display.
Iyamah also warns that people of color shouldn’t emulate white people in the interior design of their homes.
The Use of the Color White
You knew we’d get around to this, right?In addition to the unforgivable sin of decorating a home with “racist objects” like “mammy jars, colonial busts, war memorabilia, and Confederate flags,” Iyamah argues that the use of white paint is just as “racist.”
The use of the color white has been weaponized to symbolize purity…There’s [sic] a lot of ways that this theory can deconstruct conservative values that really align with whiteness.
So there you have it. Before you buy that next can of white paint to, say, repaint your kitchen, remember: the color white has been “weaponized to symbolize purity.”
Tell ya what, Teqweelah: I’ll paint my place any color I like, decorate it however the fuck I want, and will thank you to keep the fuck out of it. Opinions from you and your ilk regarding my personal taste in home decor and color scheme will be neither sought nor welcome—nor, for that matter, tolerated. Far as I’m concerned, you can jam your pathological obsession with finding “racism” under every least pebble you trip over so far the fuck up your stupid ass you get a sore throat, you wretched fucking degenerate.
Cliff’s Notes version: If I want any shit from you, I’ll squeeze your fucking head.
God, how truly awful life must be for these pathetic fools, spending every minute of every day writhing under the microscope of their “the political is personal” creed: injecting Progressivist politics into every aspect of their stunted lives; intent on seeing to it that more well-adjusted, normal people will share their self-inflicted misery. If they weren’t such total assholes, you’d have to feel sorry for them.
“If they weren’t such total assholes, you’d have to feel sorry for them.”
Well, no Mike. Just no. I’m thinking anyone like that should stand before a firing squad for the crime of intentional stupidity.
How about non-Whites can decorate their own houses that they designed and built using their traditional techniques. You know, mud huts with straw roofs. They shouldn’t be living in steel-framed building, no, not at all. That would be giving in to colonialism. That won’t do. Get out of those White man’s houses! Go on now, git!
I give up: what is a mammy jar? I’ve tried from Wiktionary to the Urban Dictionary; can’t find it?
Beats me boron, I never heard of it either.
They’re old ceramic or china cookie jars shaped like the old “Mammy” caricature, once considered to be VERY collectable. Back in the day they were also known as “Watermelon Mammy” jars; there was also a male version made in the shape of a fat old Nee-grow chef called “Cookie.” My grandma had a Mammy jar made by McCoy in the early 30s that was handed down to her from her grandma; God only knows whatever became of it, or what it might be worth now. Probably not near as much as it once was, considering that owning one nowadays would get you thrown in prison for thirty-forty years, if not killed outright, you E-ville RAYCISS!
Example:
Huh. I need a couple to go along with the Lawn Jockey’s, another item deemed “racist” by the collective.
“White Paint”
Well, clearly racist. Red paint (Chinese) even more racist. All color should be eliminated in favor of the absence of color, black.
Everything black, such that we can see nothing.
No wonder they’re so fucking miserable and want us to be the same way too.
It is to laugh:

The above comment should have been placed at the Just say no EV post.
My general rule is this: Don’t debate bullshit, don’t give it the time of day.
