Up Ya Hate Game!

March 19, 2007

People, I am declaring war on extra regular hate. For real. I'm gonna need people to up their hate game. I'm gonna need some kind of imagination in that shit. I'm gonna need you to stop all the ole skool slurs and come up with your something original. Because, just like Rhymefest, I don't like it unless it's brand new. That ole skool hate game is not going to come back into style. It's like the shoulder pads of the 80s. Not comin back. Go head and step it up, and bring sexy back with it!

Nigger? Nigga? Mud people? C'mon now! That bullshit is so out-of-date that Black people are using it on each other. My sister is doing a case study on diversity and some of the questions ask whether or not people would want someone of a different ethnicity to live in their neighborhood. Of all the racist shit that she's read, the only comment that has interested her (or more importantly, me) is when one white dude wrote that he doesn't want to live around the "outbreed" people. She, two of her friends, and I have decided that that hurt waaay more than nigga. That's a perfect example of people keeping their hate game up. Keep it fresh.

President Bush? We can diss the fool all we want, but that man is on his A+ hate game! That man can not only run around skrait hating on folks and make it look effortless; he can make it look clean, AND get laws passed to sustain it! And to really show you just how good he is, he's got a vice-president with a lesbian daughter who is having a baby with her partner! That is smooooth. Pimpalicious.

Meanwhile, today, on UIC's campus, I was going to lunch with my sister and her friends, and this white dude is passing out a flier about gay people. It had all the usual suspects.
1. Homosexual on homosexual violence is much more problematic than heterosexual on homosexual violence.
2. Homosexuals are costing us billions of dollars because of how rampantly they spread AIDS.
3. Hate crime laws are "special" legislation.
4. We should treat homosexuality like smoking. Discourage it "in a way consonant with our democratic principles."
5. Lesbians have higher rates of ovarian and cervical cancer.*yawn*

Gay men have more AIDS? Lesbians have more cancer? Hate crime laws are "special legislation?" Be kind and compassionate to gay folks while discouraging their destructive behavior?

UP YA HATE GAME!

I mean, I'ma need some creativity here. If you spend all damn day fuming over gay people and what they do in their homes on their private time, I'm gonna need you to stop quoting shit off of the internet. That doesn't work for academia, and it won't work in the hate game. Plaigarism. Ugh.

And people were actually standing by these men, shouting at them, and saying, "hate is being handed out here." Actually getting upset over that uber-boring foolishness. C'mon now! Ain't you got some studying you could be doing? There is absolutely nothing to see here!

Hate-mongerers need to come up with some shit that I actually have to think about shooting down. Your lack of creativity is having a negative effect on my ability to formulate critical arguments. I'm tired of being able to shoot down a racist, sexist, or homophobe with the same lines. I'm tired of refuting hypocritical Bible-thumpers with the same scriptures that they use against my beliefs. I'm tired of laughing at the ridiculousness of it all and not even bothering to refute it. It makes me look bad when I am forced to repeat the same things over and over. I'm too damn bright for all this lamery!

I need a challenge, and YOU are not doing your jobs!

And to all of those who say, "we need them to stop saying hateful things, not come up with new hateful things," I say "pooh on you." Hate is as old as humanity. (I guarantee that it was only a matter of years after creation that people started using that "God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" bullshit) Hate is going to always be here. And those who detest hate will always be put to the test. So get used to it and keep your, "that's-bullshit-and-I'm-bout-to-tell-you-why" game on deck.

Besides, the more ridiculous stuff that they're forced to come up with, the more ridiculous they look.

AND

As my friend LaToya said, "get a little bit better with the hate because if people don't, they should have a coconut smile and shut the fuck up." Katt Williams said he doesn't mess with people who don't "keep it pushin." Take it to the next plane. Get on my level! If I don't hear some interesting things soon, I'm going to stop commenting on any of it! Just skrait up shut the hell up. And that will be a loss.So, in the immortal words of El Presidente Carter (Jay-Z, not Jimmy, although I do love me some Jimmy), "SHOW ME WHAT YA GOT!"
