“I Hate The West” version one, Lyrics by Sarah Wilkinson
[VERSE ONE] I hate the west. I hate the men with balding crests, thinning grey hair and the power obsessed. [VERSE TWO] Feigning dementia to fabricate leadership, Using their platform for real estate dealership lip service wheelership, spitting out washington mealy mouthed bullyshit. [CHORUS] While we watchers heave at the blood curdling insanity, of what was once our humanity. Save your vanity, Mr. U.N., your false warnings of calamity, you care not for this planet, for me... this is the end.
Prompt: Grim Reaper, chubby businessmen salivating, U.S. Dollars, Palestinian Flag

[VERSE ONE] I hate the west. I hate the men with balding crests, thinning grey hair and the power obsessed.

Save your vanity, Mr. U.N., your false warnings of calamity, you care not for this planet, for me... this is the end.
“I Hate The West” version four, Lyrics by Sarah Wilkinson
I hate the men with balding crests, thinning grey hair and the power obsessed.

“I Hate The West” version six, Lyrics by Sarah Wilkinson
[VERSE ONE] I hate the west. I hate the men with balding crests, thinning grey hair and the power obsessed. [VERSE TWO] I hate the poppy that says it remembers the dead, as tears are shed, while killing ever more children, turning them red, in their bed, while sleeping, unknowing their souls are leaving. blood seeping, crying and weeping for help that never comes, just more war drums, money and profit and yeah cough it, that racist hate for anything not Ukrainian, or anyone darker than this side of the Mediterranean.

Sem*it"ic (?), a. Of or pertaining to Shem or his descendants; belonging to that division of the Caucasian [white] race which includes the Arabs, Jews, and related races. [Written also Shemitic.]
Help me get the word out to boycott the terms, "Semite" "Semitism" "Semitic".
I was shocked when I discovered the entry in the 1913 Webster's dictionary.
Like the majority of the human population, I doubt you are familiar with 17th and 18th century “British Israelism” ideology… (you may be. You SHOULD be.) I am familiar with it. I was raised in the Herbert W. Armstrong cult/Worldwide Church of God, which had adapted a particular version of the ideology. But others, such as the Ku Klux Klan and Aryan Nations adapted their own version of British Israelism to suit a more violent and extremist racist agenda.
“British Israelism” ideology directly relates to the old “Curse of Ham,” interpretation which was used to give validation to the Trans-Atlantic slave trade.
So I ask you, PLEASE boycott the word. Do not include it in your speeches. If you mean “Anti-Jewish” then say “Anti-Jewish”.
Haven't you ever wondered why Israel does not say “Anti-Jewish” but chose to use an unrelated term, “Anti-Semitism”? It's entirely because Israel and Zionists are not concerned with Jews or Judaism. Theirs is an entirely racial-based movement, rooted in violent racist extremism, just like their counterparts in the Ku Klux Klan.
Sem*it"ic (?), a. Of or pertaining to Shem or his descendants; belonging to that division of the Caucasian [white] race which includes the Arabs, Jews, and related races. [Written also Shemitic.]
*Caucasian is another word for “White”… as in White race, which rhymes with the fascist racist policies of the theocratic ethnostate regime in Israel.
[Anyone familiar with “British Israelism,” are familiar with the “blond hair, blue eyed” Jesus, and how all the Biblical patriarch were supposedly white… who comprised the 10 tribes of Israel, taken captive in 720 B.C. by Assyrian Empire, and then migrated into Europe in a land that supposedly was a “land without a people”. It's a racial theory that has been revised and revised by numerous racist organizations, including some which advocate for racial violence and extremism.]

We cut off the Ku Klux Klan and their stone age racist ideology back in the 1960s… it's time for the Israeli regime to retire too.
For those who still fail to fully comprehend, here's part of the finale in the box office sensation, Mississippi Burning with Gene Hackman.
1:29:30 People look at us and only see bigots and racists.
Hatred isn't something you're born with.
It gets taught.
At school they said segregation is what it said in the Bible.
Genesis 9, verse 27

All his briefs are brown, or that's what people say, comes from snorting coke, both night and day. He ripped a few in court, one near Diane Feinstein too. Lawyers said it was noxious, enough to wanna puke. [CHORUS] Mafia Don's White House Dreaming, White House Dreaming. Don stopped near a church, He passed along the way, Been near a thousand times, but never knelt to pray. Just a publicity stunt, looking good for TV, gotta keep up the show, for demagoguery. Tried to slip fast one, saying the vote was rigged, Don lost his shit, and the presidential bid.
Bobby Fischer would tell you…
“The United States is an illegitimate country just like the bandit state of Israel. Zionists have no right to be there. The land belongs to the Palestinians,” said Fischer, whose mother's an Agnostic Euro-Caucasian.
Sadly, it seems that a lot of people are in the business of denying one Holocaust or another. However, Bobby Fischer did not deny the Holocaust. He jeopardized his safety, to tell the whole world about what David Stannard called, “…the worst human holocaust the world had ever witnessed.” That #HumanHolocaust, scholars technically put at beginning in 1492, and is ongoing till this day. Robert James Fischer certainly did not deny the Holocaust:
“That country, the United States, belongs to the red man, the American Indian. It's actually a shame to be a so-called American because everybody living there is an invader.” —Robert J. Fischer
They should make a deal with far right nationalists in Germany… they will ask all people from other countries to return to their homelands, on condition, the racists agree to the influx of GERMAN DESCENDANTS born on stolen lands!! The nazi scourge think they have a “immigration problem” now. Just wait until the apocalyptic flood of German descendants pour back into Germany. Instead of complaining of living in a flat, sharing a bathroom with four families, you will be forced out into the streets. I know, because my great grandfather was a German immigrant, who settled on stolen land of Native Continental First Nations tribes of “North America” and had many, many progeny. White Europeans, stop the land theft! The “Great Replacement” theory as it is called, that you, somehow are “being replaced,” is a sinister mockery of history.
“The white people should go back to Europe, and the country should be returned to the American Indians. This is the future I would like to see for the so-called United States.—Robert J. Fischer
#SavePalestine #ChristmasYearRound #JesusWasPalestinian #Apartheid #Xenocide #Genocide #TheGreatReplacement #PanEuropeanIndigenousGenocide #PanEuropeanWhiteSupremacy #HumanHolocaust
You on the far right: Be honest! Who has invaded and replaced whom, for more than 600 years? Your suggested theory is a sinister mockery of history.
What ignorance…and Karenesque arrogance of the far-right, to even suggest Bobby Fischer endorsed their racism! Bobby Fischer opposed you.
“The U.S. and Israel have been slaughtering the Palestinians, just slaughtering them, for years. Robbing them and slaughtering them.”—Bobby Fischer
The brown Palestinian baby Jesus… that European colonists tried to rewrite as “White, blond haired, blue eyed Jesus.”
The Christmas Story… not so much as a room was found for Mary to rest and her child was born in a stable with livestock.
Today, there is no place for a mother to give birth, because American bombs are used by Israel to blow up hospitals.
Herod, appointed to power by European (Roman) colonizers, a lifetime of persecuting the child, just like modern day Palestinian children are used for target practice by IOF with American-tax payer funded bullets, by illegal (under international law) European colonizers.
It is Christmas year round in Palestine.
Perhaps, if their hair were blonder and eyes more blue, they would be regarded as human by the western colonizers.
It is not any protection of Jews that Zionists seek.
It is real estate, and oil…
and the only “God” they worship is the Almighty Dollar.
Bobby Fischer says, “Open your college dictionary!”
How are the majority of Semitic-speaking peoples ignored, as if they do not exist, all the while the word must be redefined, and redefined, till now, it is exclusively used to promote an Ethnostate's apartheid policy whilst crushing diverse Semitic peoples globally?
Analysis of the term, “Anti Semitism”.
The widespread usage of the term tends to reject the notion that Arabic-speaking people are “Semitic,” falling under the umbrella of “Semitism,” as well as a recognition of their entitlement to the same protected minority status.
Speaking one of several, among the Afro-Asiatic family of languages, makes one “Semitic” by definition. To identify as “Semitic” has absolutely nothing to do with one's race, religion or nationality, and never has.
To deny the existence of Arabic peoples is an Anti-Semitic act in itself.
and then dig much, much deeper…
#Boycott profane words rooted in obscene racism and religious bigot ideology.
“Shem-itic” “Shem-itisim” is rooted deeply in the “Curse of Ham” and “British Israelism” Racist mythology, and still used by White Supremacists. Just STOP acknowledging the word! BOYCOTT that word. It's racist. No more f'n #GuiltTrip #ShameGame…tell the media, the @ADL, @AIPAC and the rest of the racist lot to take that RACIST word and fark off! After discovering the word comes from 18th “Shem-ite” “Shem-itism”--myths to legitimatize slavery! they can use it for a suppository!

'til the world understands why Robert J. Fischer criticised the U.S./British and Russian military industry imperial alliance and their own Israeli Apartheid. Sarah Wilkinson explains: Tweets by swilkinsonbc |
 “What a sad story Fischer was,” typed a racist, pro-imperialist colonial troll who supports mega-corporation entities over human rights, police state policies & white supremacy. |
To which I replied: “Really? I think he [Bob Fischer] stood up to the broken system of corruption and raised awareness! Whether on the Palestinian/Israel-British-U.S. Imperial Apartheid scam, the Bush wars of ‘7 countries in 5 years,’ illegally, unconstitutionally which constituted mass xenocide or his run in with police brutality in Pasadena, California-- right here in the U.S., police run rampant over the Constitution of the U.S., on oath they swore to uphold, but when Americans don't know the law, and the cops either don't know or worse, “don't care” -- then I think that's pretty darn “sad”. I think Mr. Fischer held out and fought the good fight, steadfast til the day he died, and may he Rest In Peace. Educate yourself about U.S./State Laws -- https://www.youtube.com/@AuditTheAudit/videos After which the troll posted a string of profanities, confirming there was never any genuine sentiment of “compassion” for Mr. Fischer, rather an intent to inflict further defamatory remarks. |
This ongoing work is a tribute to the life and accomplishments of Robert “Bobby” Fischer who passionately loved and studied chess history. May his life continue to inspire many other future generations of chess enthusiasts and kibitzers, alike.
March 9, 1943 - January 17, 2008The photograph of Bobby Fischer (above) from the March 02, 1956 The Tampa Times was discovered by Sharon Mooney (Bobby Fischer Newspaper Archive editor) on February 01, 2018 while gathering research materials for this ongoing newspaper archive project. Along with lost games now being translated into Algebraic notation and extractions from over two centuries of newspapers, it is but one of the many lost treasures to be found in the pages of old newspapers since our social media presence was first established November 11, 2017.
