For as long as I’ve been alive, I’ve heard certain black folks crying about reparations. Hell, even as logically brilliant as was Christopher Hitchens, he used to fervently argue that, given that there was a wrong committed against a people, and that wrong could be corrected, as best it could be, blacks in America were thus entitled to reparations.

This was a pure loser. And still is.

Free entire housing communities, taxpayers acting as children’s fathers in ¾ of cases, free SAT points, preferred placement in universities – all of these things are gifts given to blacks based on historical injustices.

Injustices, mind you, that very few blacks alive today have suffered. You have Morgan Freeman and a few geriatrics who can still recall Jim Crow, and not a single black person in America today was ever a slave.

So to whom do we pay reparations? That Somali dine-and-dash bozo whose IQ is so low he makes the typical 85er look like Einstein? He calls himself an African American and is hella quick to jump on the victim train.

Maybe all these kids born in the ’90s with their brand new iPhones and $200 sneakers, crying constantly that they’re oppressed?

Take it how you will, but blacks, generally speaking, have gotten their reparations and then some. And they’ve got them from people who had jack and shit to do with slavery or even Jim Crow – regular white people born innocently into a country whose past is forever entirely out of their control.

It’s time we got something!

Separations!

That’s right. We don’t own the country. We can’t throw blacks out. But they seem to hate white people, by and large, constantly calling us oppressors and claiming we’re privileged. We move to try to get away from them, what everyone knows as white flight. We try to create our own communities with people we recognize; people who don’t hate us.

We’ll build nice homes in nice-looking communities. We’ll build shops and restaurants and banks and schools that do well. We’ll build solid infrastructure and commerce. We’ll build safe, prosperous communities where you can leave your doors unlocked at night and nobody’s going to steal the kids’ bikes.

Then what happens? The very people who supposedly hate us, who are already living in entire housing communities that we purchased, and they ran into the ground like a Haitian mud-slide, start looking at us from across the fence.

One can only imagine what’s going through their heads. “Damn whitey destroyed our communities by building theirs, so now we need some get-back!”

If that’s not what they’re thinking, I sure as shit can’t tell. Because no matter where we go in this nation, no matter what we do, blacks come beating the proverbial door down, shouting that they need to be included.

Objectively speaking, nothing out there prevents black people from building their own homes, or fixing up the projects they get for free. Nothing stops them from policing their neighborhoods, or raising their kids in two-parent, stable households. Nothing stops them from having better schools, or opening businesses, or emulating exactly what the white folks are doing.

(Nothing but perhaps the genome of a nomadic hunter-gatherer whose entire breeding strategy and culture is based on personal dominance and not cooperation, but that’s another article…)

Nothing stops them but themselves not wanting to put in the labor yet still demanding a ready-made life handed to them.

Again, if that’s not what they’re thinking, I sure as shit can’t tell.

Because their lobbyists line up around the block to force the federal government’s hand at shuffling them into white affluent communities. Whites cannot stop it, because the only people who get freedom of association in America are nonwhites.

But how do they afford it?

Simple. HUD does it for them. Housing choice. Beggars can be choosers, if whitey’s paying!

In other words, the same white people trying to live by themselves, keeping to themselves, in peace, in their own little corner of the globe, end up having their tax dollars turned against them, as federal programs pay the rent, and you have a transference of culture: The black culture that creates ghettos shoved into the white culture that created opulence.

One bad apple being a colloquialism but true, imagine one hundred, one thousand.

Schools fail. Crime goes up. Property values go down. Blacks get more reparations, and yet another good neighborhood is turned into garbage.

White flight ensues. Whites resettle, rebuild, recalibrate and it all starts again. Blacks have yet another community in which they’re the majority, free of the horrible oppressors, but they look back over that fence, curse whitey for their plight, and move next door.

Is it racist for whites to want their own spaces? Every other race wants their own spaces, and they get their own spaces.

Let’s be clear: We’re not talking about the damn Klan here! These white people are in no way affecting the lives of blacks, negatively or positively. These white people simply want to live alongside the people with whom they evolved for thousands of years. One feels–and is!–safer around the familiar. We have shared customs and values – one of the same arguments made to say it’s okay for South African blacks to take back farmlands.

But it’s not okay in America, is it? Whitey still owes reparations to black folk!

F*ck that noise. Some of us just want to be left alone. We’re not burning crosses on lawns, stringing blacks up in trees, harassing them in the streets, or anything of the sort. We try to go our separate ways, and here they come! Out of one side of their mouths claiming we’re holding them down, and whimpering like lost puppies out the other side, wanting to only be around white people.

Then it’s not good enough for the one new black family to be around whites. They feel out of place. All these damn white people! This isn’t diverse enough! Let’s get another new black family in every month to culturally enrich this area!

What’s so bad about people willingly wanting to separate and live among their own?

The Appalachian whites, who are three-times as poor as inner-city blacks, would love government to build them a housing project! They wouldn’t destroy it either. But we all know what would happen. They’d look over that fence again, salivating for round #10,482 of the reparations.

Yes, it sounds racist. And maybe it is. Though not the dictionary definition of feeling blacks are inferior, and not the power + privilege definition either, because my ability to keep my neighborhood clean isn’t taking power away from you to do the same. But since we’re talking about essentially self-segregation for whites, it’ll be called racist. And that’s fine!

Why the hell can’t black folks leave the white folks to start their own little racist enclaves in America, like blacks have been doing for sixty damn years?

Why must they follow whites around, everywhere whites go?

Asians, Latinos, blacks – they all get to have their own spaces, their own entire little townships, and whites don’t barge in. But as soon as white folks create a bad-ass town with good schools and pretty homes, we see those eyes peering over the fence, and here comes daddy HUD with the vouchers.

A few years later, another ghetto bereft all white people.

If we want peace and to get along in America, then at some point the government has to butt out and give up on reparations, instead allowing separations.
