Freudian Slip

Before I get into the "element," of what's being discussed, I want to address the proverbial elephant in the room about the entire subject of Hasan Minaj and his counter claim against an Article written about him in the New Yorker. First, we have to acknowledge Hasan's ethnicity, as a decendant of Hindu and Uttar Pradeshi parents Minaj is an Indian American. Then we have to acknowledge that he's also a mainstream stand-up comic in an area where there aren't many who can provide the perspective he has. One is directly connected to two and to provide any details otherwise, is just false equalivency. That is what is being attacked about Hasan Minaj. No matter if the perspective is that the story he tells isn't accurate by a day or that the reason given isn't what the parents of a non-ethnic girl said. He's a Muslim American. That's the entire point of the debate. Like I said, without jumping into the details of the claims and counter claims that's what were talking about. So, since we've established that fact let's take on any other ethnicity in comedy. Would if you're African American or Native American? Would if the comedian is Chicano or Pacific Islander? Do we also go into the past they describe and interview the parents of some broadsided relationship because of racial differences? It's an important fact because I want to know when it's appropriate to start checking if Jerry Sienfeld's story checks out. Do we start investigating Jeff Foxworthy to find out if he's really a redneck? As idiotic as it sounds that's the petty level were on with the Hasan Minaj story. I saw Hasan's video. The NPR story I later read he's being accused of exaggerated racism. In the sense that he is the person receiving the treatment, let's be clear about it. The reason it's important is because the New Yorker which is a paper I actually do read is accusing someone of race of being treated unfairly racially and then exaggerating about it. Do you see how improper that sounds? Let me put it this way. Let's say a woman is sexually assaulted. Without going into the degree of the assault, let's just say she wasn't raped. Okay, we established that she wasn't forced to have sex, but in the midst of discussing her assault do we start measuring her reaction to being assaulted? Do we start calculating where she is exaggerating the moment where she took offense to being put into a situation that was humilating and fearful? That's what were talking about. We're talking about a powerless person being put in a situation of powerlessness and apparently, now were measuring their reaction to judge them in this situation. It doesn't make sense. How far does it go? "The New Yorker story notes that the comic's 2022 special The King's Jester features a segment alleging Craig Monteilh, a real-life FBI informant who spied on Muslim communities in Southern California, had infiltrated the mosque frequented by Minhaj's family under the name "Brother Eric." Monteilh said that he never visited that mosque or met Minhaj, which the comic acknowledged in The New Yorker story." Wait a second! Did I read that right? "A real-life FBI informant," is what it say's? So now were using real tax dollars to dismiss a claim by a comedian, a comedian, who happened to tell a story similiar to something that actually happened to families like his and by a government like ours? How far does this stuff go? Then finally they go into the details of the Turkish embassy murder where a citizen of the U.S. was abducted and murdered and pronounce that Hasan was there, but according to "un-named employee," it was a month earlier. That's how far it goes. A murder story that actually happened. In essence, I am astounded by the real depiction here. I remember the episode of the show Hasan was on and it did appear to be around the time that the abduction/murder happened. I have to take into account that most episodes are shot ahead of time, but it still puts Hasan at the actual location around about the time that something really happened. In my mind, Hasan is not a comedian at this point, he's a reporter. That's the line I believe he is considered "to close," to the action. In reality, I don't know that these stories are fair in that they provide "free advertisement." Nothing is at it should be. Donald Trump proved that. Like for instance, Britney Spears comes out and said Justin Timberlake "fathered a child," she lost. Okay, that's sad, but it just so happens that now Justin Timberlake is planning a "comeback tour." I didn't even realize he went anywhere, but it is almost the holiday season and a JT Christmas makes sense. Whoa, look at me. I got "off-subject," so fast that you'd have to put on an episode of Shark week with nothing but minorities in it to get me back to the real subject here. The thing is, corporations took on the societal problems of division which I personally believe is exploitation because fan bases do not become disloyal that easily. I'm looking at you Bud Light. So now, we must be moving on to entertainment. It's all connected anyway. It's like commercialism will replace selective narratives in the future. No more BLM or Water is Life, just coke and pepsi. Remember the time when Kylie Jenner solved police brutality with an aluminum soda can? The struggle is real and in America if the reality can be diluted and overcome with advertising entertainment, be damned the well intention. I feel like I'm getting off subject here. Hasan was a victim and he turned that into a comedy bit. Isn't that what were talking about here. Isn't that the real crime? It's almost as if you're an American, whatever you claim couldn't happen to you because you're an American. When did this little fact start to become true? Oh wait, that's right I forgot. If it's true for you then that makes it true for everyone else even though no one looks alike and has the exact same experience in America. In case your missing the sarcasm here, I'm using it like a comedian uses "comedy relief," to talk about something serious, so that they won't be accused of racially profiling the entertainment. Oops, did I just literally say that an entertainment medium like the New Yorker is profiling a comedian's act to sell more advertisement? If I did in fact say that, it's just a Freu

dian slip. In all honesty, we don't know where the "battle ground," draws its lines anymore because they're all over the place. It's like a congressional voting map in say, Georgia. The point is that someone in Georgia that just happen to be a member of one party drew a map that just happens to favor that parties turn out in voting, even though the majority of the people in the district belong to the opposing party. That's the only political parallel I'm making here. It's what I believe is behind all of this. It's my moderate tepid "Dipping a toe," in conspiracy if you will. I don't think politics needs to be everywhere, all the time, all at once. I believe there is a time and place for things. I heard this saying though and it sticks. "If all other financial tools fail, start a war." Now that can be taken a lot of different ways. Was the author talking about a bidding war? Were they referring to competition in a consumer market? I mean we live in a capitalist society. Does X amount of Dollars equate to x amount of bullets? The answer is yes, absolutely they were talking about a real and actual war because greed knows no bounds. Think about it. Bibby hasn't been popular for like a decade. He's been reaching, "Putin Popularity," rates lately. Uncle Biden missed all of the snafu and inherited a disaster. England doesn't have a Queen. Nobody is clamoring to kiss Charles' ring. All democratic society rules point to "frivolous," and ongoing investigations. I actually meant to write the "F," word with the word war behind it, but when I checked to see if I was spelling it right, ongoing investigation came out. I kept it because that's what we've been doing all this time. Of course to the people or person in an investigation it's not "frivolous," just like the people who are in war it isn't either. It supports the point I'm making. Hasan Minaj - comedian, actor, entertainer is being investigated for, checks notes, lying about racism. What a crock. A Muslim that talks about racism is being investigated, frivolous, I might add, for racism? Who exactly is the victim here? Well, according to the New Yorker, it's not Hasan. That doesn't make any sense and often times when your being sold a load of bullshit, it hardly ever does make sense. I believe the average American is still trying to figure out how to work their new iphone or how to start their car without a key. Nobody is paying attention to the things our government is doing. One Billion to Ukraine! Another billion to Ukraine! Oh, Israel, you get a billion to. Who the hell are they getting all this money from? If you guessed the guy or gal that can't operate an iphone or keyless entry, you guessed right. When you do look up which all of us will eventually, you'll see this comedian on the news and think, "Ah - Bad, scary Muslim." That's not even why he's up there. If I recall, weren't they building in development on the Gaza strip where blockades have been in place for decades condos and other settlement construction? Think about it. Here at home, all of a sudden the Feds use Eminent domain to build a border wall and then the week after an Emergency Alert goes out and Hamas executes a perfectly timed attack across a fortified fifty year old border that's never been penetrated. Subsequently, we lock our borders here, close down all out of continent travel and start searching for sects or hives here internally. Did I get that right? It's called, "Wag the Dog," people. I believe Dustin Hoffman made a movie about it. I'm sure there are attacks. I'm sure they are real and in no way shape or form am I instigating Anti-Semitic tropes. I don't believe for a second that things are exaggerated. I did see a video where someone set off a bomb though and then all these people came in after it and laid on the ground to be picked up by the ambulance, but I can't confirm where that was at. All I'm saying is for other countries this is real and I'm sure Americans can't even begin to comprehend some of the things that happen. We can though because we have terrorism. I just don't think it's Hasan Minaj or Kat Williams or Eddie Murphy. Honestly, it's not anyone bringing you the news. It's not Fox News either. Although, I did get into a vehicle not to long ago where the radio was stuck on the conservative pod and I have to tell you by the time I got out of the car, I was almost convinced every Democrat Socialist needed to be burned at the stake for considering the plight of the Palestian people, but eventually the fresh air reached my brain and I realized they were human showing compassion for other humans. That goes for Israel's people to. So there it is. It's called "the Neutral Zone." You know, the place where we all onced lived because we weren't actually being attacked. That's what I'm saying. Hasan might be being attacked for exaggeration, but I thought that's what comedians did. I'd like to apologize for comparing what happened to him to sexual assault also. there is nothing funny about it. I wasn't trying to be funny there. It's no joke.
