Mississippi GOP's New "Capitol District" Is New Jim Crow

[Penelope]

Well if the blacks were not so uppity.

They are taking you schools and taking high paying jobs, it was that way for 1900 on.

Would you have the same issue if any state or locale did the same thing with an all Black District and judges?

People should be voted in office.

 

[Lastamender]

Mississippi's GOP legislature is planning to divide the state capital into a new "district" for it's white residents.

One where the judges will no longer be elected but chosen by all-white state government officials.

This video essay by The Professor explains why...

What does "fascism" really mean?
The English words 'fascist' and 'fascism' are first cited in 1919 and 1921, respectively. In simplest terms, fascism refers to a specific way of organizing a society: under fascism, a government ruled by a dictator controls the lives of the people in that society, and allows no dissent or disagreement.

Why wouldn't I?

Under the government system of fascism, criticism of that government is suppressed.

Which contemporary party is running around the country w/their hair on fire writing laws against Critical Race Theory, which criticizes the racism in the government system.

The legislature is realizing there is a problem in their capital city of Jackson, brought on by the incompetence of local democrat governance, and responding accordingly to secure state territory.

Wish we’d much do the same in Austin.

Are the facts presented in the video hurting your feelings?

So this means: no, you don't have credible sources to back it up. ... just biased commentary.

Austin has the lowest unemployment in the state.

There is no "New Jim Crow". Any time you hear someone say "blank" is the "new Jim Crow", then you know they are race-baiting scuzzsacks who are trying to gain an advantage in their stupid narrative by attempting to tie it to what happened over 150 years ago, and to which they were not a party. It's like if I accidently locked myself out of my house on a hot day and proclaimed "This is the NEW Holocaust!!!" No, it is not a perfect analogy, but only because it is merely a couple steps removed from the "new Jim Crow" analogies.

If it is not the whole truth, then it is not the truth at all. It is a lie. Nobody who claims something is the "new Jim Crow" is tell you the whole truth. They are lying to you.

I know. A fascist is as fascist does.

What is your definition of fascist? How does fascism relate to the opinion piece you've provided?

That “CRT” , (Caucasians Resenting Truth), is like sunlight to vampires for them.

Exactly .. these "Jim Crow" laws, "racist" laws, "fascist" laws and "discriminatory" laws just equate to something an individual doesn't like, without taking the actual meaning of the language they use.

Blacks self-segregate, so who cares?

This is the fascist authoritarian right’s effort to pursue its neo-segregation agenda.

Why should anyone be shocked at the results of massive racial division Democrats have pushed / sewn for DECADES?!

It is a tool used for the acquisition of and maintaing their hold on their wealth, power, and control.

Saul Alensky's 'Rules For Radicals' is not a book of Socialist philosophy / ideology - it is their 'PLAYBOOK'.

You can't make this stuff up folks, you just can't.

Is there a third party news source reporting on this, one less er inflammatory?
EDIT: found one.

Mississippi House OKs new court system â to be appointed by white state officials â for second-Blackest U.S. city, stoking tension

The mayor of Jackson, Mississippi, said approval of a new court system for his city, which is 80% Black, "reminds me of apartheid."

www.cnbc.com

So what is the positive argument for why this is occurring?
EDIT, having read more, I doubt this survives Constitutional review.

There should be laws against something designed to keep people at each other's throats like CRT.
