B-Man Posted August 5 Posted August 5 The Cincinnati Shame: Mayor Says He Is Too Busy to Talk to Victims David Strom If a gang of white people stalked and beat a black couple on the streets of Cincinnati, we all know what would happen. Politicians would be wearing kente cloth scarves, taking knees, begging for forgiveness that white people exist, and preparing scaffolds for the perpetrators. There would be marches, speeches, yet another national reckoning on race, and endless think pieces in The Atlantic, The New York Times, and a 60,000-word essay in The New Yorker about the horrors of white supremacy in America. But in this case, the perpetrators were black thugs and the victims a middle-aged white couple, so nobody in the establishment will give the victims a thought. It is the job of the victims to be victimized, and of the victimizers to be valorized, or perhaps given mild punishments and patted on the head. ... When the mayor of Cincinnati, Aftab Pureval, was asked if he had reached out to any of the victims brutally beaten by a black mob during the city’s Jazz Festival chaos, he said he had better things to do. ... Ever since this story broke, I have struggled with it. Initially, I didn't even want to write about it because doing so would elevate a particular crime into an archetype that feeds into racial stereotypes. It's not so much that I fear being called racist--everybody is called racist these days if they deviate a millimeter from the acceptable narrative--but rather that I didn't want to feed actual racist narratives that are out there and growing. Just because a disproportionate number of black people commit crimes--hate crimes included--I do not believe that it is because they are black. It is because we have fostered a culture of racial impunity in which many black youths believe they can commit hate crimes with impunity. There was a time when the same was true for whites, who could and did commit hate crimes against blacks without consequence, and that was evil, too. Civilization exists largely to tame the evil in all our souls, and when it fails to do so, the hate bubbles to the surface. Now I am on my fourth piece on the Cincinnati shame. Why? ... Simple: the shame is not that of the thugs who committed the crime--they were doing what barbarians do. Everybody is born a barbarian--watch 2-year-olds fight over toys--and it is the role of civilized adults to coach our youth into becoming civilized. We called children who have not been civilized by their adults "spoiled," and when they get older, criminals. ... The shame is that of the city fathers and mothers of Cincinnati, who have been calling for "context" and downplaying the crime. They blame social media for allowing the world to see that they have created an environment where barbarians can beat people, laugh, and broadcast their crimes to the world in order to get applause. ... The leaders of Cincinnati look away. Make excuses. Chastise us for being appalled. They, in effect, say that being a barbarian--at least if you're black--is normal. It is anything but normal. I do not believe that black people are particularly prone to barbarity. But I do believe that American black culture--at least what we euphemistically call "urban" culture--celebrates it. That is why the perpetrators were laughing and broadcasting their crime--it was something to be proud of. https://hotair.com/david-strom/2025/08/02/the-cincinnati-shame-4-mayor-says-he-is-too-busy-to-talk-to-victims-n3805414
B-Man Posted September 6 Posted September 6 The Rise of Luigism. A political movement is testing its power. Call it Luigism. Invoking Luigi Mangione—the Ivy League–educated radical who allegedly assassinated UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson last December—Luigism is the idea that violence is a legitimate response to the perceived injustices of capitalism. If the victim represents wealth, whiteness, pro-Israel Judaism, or institutional power, the killing can be framed as justified, or even glamorous. Mangione has yet to stand trial, but he’s already been canonized. Social media is awash in fan art. Influencers praise his good looks. Merch with the slogan “Mama, I’m in Love with a Criminal” is available for purchase. A “Free Luigi” community has tens of thousands of members. More than $1 million has been crowdsourced for his legal defense, and according to polling, more than 40 percent of voters under 30 say Thompson’s killing was “acceptable.” What makes Luigism dangerous is its memeified brutality. Innocence doesn’t matter. Context doesn’t matter. What matters is what the victim represents, and whether their death can be hash-tagged as justice. It is a worldview built on scapegoats and sacrifices. https://www.city-journal.org/article/manhattan-shooting-wesley-lepatner-blackstone-luigi-mangione
