Assailing the Castle of my Skin!



By Stanley Collymore

Throughout the western world from Canada to New Zealand, Northern and Eastern Europe to Argentina as well as the several vassal states, even and most ironically so within the Global South, of those dominant and principally white Caucasian controlled countries which are a salient component of the referred to aforementioned group of states constituting a world that quite narcissistically, hubristically and markedly pretentiously prides itself on its scientific competence, savoir faire and technical expertise commensurate, one would have thought, with a supposedly modern world that ought to be totally devoid of Medieval and other antiquated suppositions that are themselves not only at odds with but likewise noticeably incongruous too with the enlightening beliefs and concepts of this modern world and 21^st Century that we live in, that the needlessly ongoing problems we’re still collectively confronted with, and continue to make an absolute mess of in the process of either half-heartedly trying to solve them or else ignore them all together, would have been otherwise successfully obliterated by now; but evidently that’s definitely not the case. Realistically that’s how matters should sensibly and logically be appraised and subsequently tackled, but regrettably an opposite and highly inimical approach seemingly appears to be the case.

For rather than constructively working together for the common good of humanity as a whole the prevalent tendency, especially by a stridently vocal but none the less disproportionately and to all intents and purposes a rather undeserving yet patently powerful, global minority of nations with the political, military and financial clout, as well as the logistical means to either browbeat or entirely enforcedly silence most of their known critics as well as those who’re diametrically opposed to their views about the world and what they’re actually doing to it, even though these unilaterally decreed as well as proscribed outcast countries together with those otherwise unfavourably constrained detractors of what’s essentially seen and even regarded as the prevailing narrative, aren’t only conspicuously but crucially as well do collectively form the global majority of nations as things currently stand.

Yet the status quo has been so fundamentally skewed and to such a perilous extent that reality for many in our societies has generally now taken on the semblance of discordance while in marked contrast the vicissitudes of unreality and even stubborn fantasy have become the norm. For how else can you satisfactorily or convincingly explain the mindboggling stupidity, in spite of the aforesaid conceited self-indulgences, untouchably clung to that decisively puts paid to the monumental lie that we live in what’s fundamentally a civilized world?

This infantile and completely risible approach, were it not for the pernicious toxicity attached to it and resulting in the unwarranted, callous and not infrequently so collateral deaths or the premeditated murders of those selectively picked upon by these sociopathic, demented and racist-supremacist nerds who arrogate to themselves the inalienable and unchallenged right to snuff out the lives of others either in the context of financially-advantageous, resources-rich-exploitative and illegal wars waged abroad and brutally conducted in the victims’ own countries, or simply as the purblind, ill-conceived and ludicrously delusional acts fermented in the perpetrators sick minds and stemming directly from their sponsors’ supposedly racial superiority over those they’ve wilfully and cowardly targeted and then go on, either individually or collectively, to commit murder against, and doing so almost exclusively with the victim’s skin colour the principal determining factor for this.

All of which says a darn sight more about the wholesale debasement of those who instinctively subscribe, whether enthusiastically so or more passively modulated, to the defective concept of their racial superiority and de facto a solidly-believed Master Race paradigm based exclusively on their skin colour – something that neither they, nor anyone else for that matter, ever had any input into actually affecting and most certainly couldn’t have done – than it does, in any negative way whatsoever, about the innocent victims whom these racists callously and inhumanly annihilate.

For when skin colour alone rather than the content of one’s character or what they positively do with their life during their personal sojourn here on earth becomes the defining factor for who is supposedly “superior” and therefore commensurately and comprehensively worthy of being classified as a human being and accordingly entitled to and should be accorded all the attributes of human-kind, while those who at best are deemed to be inferior specimens of the genus Homo Sapiens or else not permitted to acquire that status at all shouldn’t be, then from my personal perspective I not only unequivocally think that such persons have fundamentally lost the plot but are also without any doubt psychopathically sick; individuals from whom the mantle of power must be wrested by any means possible and sanity dispensed to the rest of the world. For as long as these people are in charge of our lives and essentially the world itself there will never be any prospect for peace, harmony and constructive dialogue among our diverse races, which although different are nevertheless equal in the eyes of our Creator, has always been so and will continue to be!

With that firmly in mind I deliberately chose this outstanding arrangement of Christian music in the heartfelt aspiration that it’ll be some spiritual consolation and succour to the aggrieved relatives, friends, supporters and conscionable sympathizers wherever on this planet of ours that they reside of those who’ve untimely and brutally lost their lives due to the savage and racist infringement of others.
