No Escape

I’m watching the TV series “Dahmer” but even that has been BLMed into the infinity.

A person can’t even watch a nice, escapist show about a cannibalistic serial killer without being subjected to strings of slogans.

In the breaks between the preaching about systemic whatsits and a bizarre portrayal of race relations, it’s actually a good show. The actors playing Dahmer and his Dad are superb. Scenography is perfect. Props are spot on. You go straight back to the nineties in some scenes. The lighting is done exceptionally well. The editing and the time jumps aren’t always justified but I guess it’s done to soothe the impatient viewers. And to make space to bring in the BLM preaching.

    “BLMed into the infinity”

    Isn’t that one reason people went so crazy about the Bear? I mean, yeah, it’s very good (I’ve just seen the first season) but it’s also so much of a relief to not have the characters supposed ethno-racial trauma whacked over the viewer’s head.

    It wasn’t exactly, realistic (the lead actress looked about 15-20 years too young to be credible) but I enjoyed the Crowded Room a lot and there was only one short scene with ridiculously out-of-place and anachronistic racial dialogue….

      I never heard about these shows but I’ll check them out, thank you!

      There’s no consistency in the BLM narrative of the show “Dahmer”. Everybody in a highly paid intellectual profession starting from the 1960s is black. That’s in Milwaukee and Ohio, mind you. Doctors, surgeons, college administrators, nurses, everybody is black. Yet somehow there’s brutal systemic racism.

      There’s also a consistent theme of everybody non-white having extremely close, tight-knit and profoundly tolerant families while white people suffer from extreme family dysfunction. Religious black moms are extremely tolerant of homosexuality while white parents are so bigoted they can’t but whisper its existence.

    // Dozens of asylum-seekers hurt in riots in Tel Aviv
    At least 30 evacuated to hospital, most suffering gunshot wounds after police broke up violent riots prompted by opponents of the Eritrean regime during celebration of Eritrean independence

    Is this bad of me to want to send the violent among rioters back to their country?

    Nobody in Israel knows or cares about Eritrea. People do care about being able to live normally in the secular & financial center of the country.

    Also, don’t those rioters understand their tenuous position in Israel and how riots will affect their status and ability to remain here? They are (extremely unwanted since not Jewish) seekers of help.

    Citizens in the poor Southern part of Tel Aviv have been complaining for years about safety and general situation with illegals. Only very few Left wing voters are ready to say one word in defense of asylum-seekers. Those riots will make our very Right wing (and not too smart) government go hard on them too.

    The government is that desparate to get all non-Jews out of the country that I was now shocked to see the newest plan (Jun 12, 2023):

    “Foreign Minister Considers Plan for Asylum Seekers to Leave Israel in Return for Professional Training
    The plan would allow Israel to send asylum seekers out of the country after they’ve completed professional training in high-demand fields, such as nursing”

    If anyone is interested, here is the long story from 2013 to 2018 of Israeli struggle to deport Eritrean and Sudanese asylum seekers, officially called “infiltrators”, to Uganda and Rwanda. After those 2023 riots, many unrelated people from Eritrea may find themselves … not in Israel :

      I’d say it makes you sane and makes me wary of Israel’s previous attempts to offload unwanted migrants on Europe…. you think they’ll behave any better in Italy or Germany?

    The summary:

    // At least 135 individuals were injured during the riots that erupted Saturday in Tel Aviv during a protest by Eritrean asylum seekers, with 15 of them in critical condition, while the rest suffered mild to moderate injuries.

    // Netanyahu: We will examine the deportation of infiltrators who rioted

    Other politicians express support for the deportation idea
