Please read this argument from me in its relative terms.
Upon listening to the entire argument from Professor Cornel West in which he critiqued "Commander In Chief Obama on the Ed Schultz Show on "MSNBC - The UnFox-Biased Biased Network" I am forced to conclude that the attacks upon Cornel West by the "Democratic machine attached progressives" are done for no other reason they loyalty to the machine (and its leader) while abandoning their ideological foundations.
I heard a (contextually) well reasoned argument from Cornel West. He has his public policy focused upon "The Least Of These" and he held Obama up to that measuring stick. In fact - Obama himself pulls out that stick and frequently chooses to use it rhetorically - but he had the closest Republican being being gauge in his indictment.
To hear the dismissals of Prof West which were written to fit within a Twitter Tweet (140 characters) showed that my previous observation of "The Bigotry Of Brevity" is applied not exclusively to conservatives but to anyone who disagrees with the "congregation". Again - those people who provide their ideological friends a "pat on the back" after having rebutted a well-reasoned argument using just a few short words are the ones who are to blame. They merely provide cover for the "brevity bigot" to continue for another day.
If there was such a thing as "Transparency" then indeed Cornel West is correct as he campaigned against the Republican Enemy by holding him up to this standard and now he is dutifully......trying to "nudge Obama in a Progressive but loving manner".
Is all criticism of Obama - "Black Conservative Criticism" and thus dismissed?
Put Both Of The "Brick City Progressive Factions" On Trial
As I listened to Prof West's argument - agreeing it with it PURELY on the construction of his argument (and again from his context) I then listened to the people on "Fight The Power Radio" (WAOK Atlanta) and the antics used by both sides pro and con to claim the OFFICIAL BLACKNESS of either side. Better still there were some who believed that we should be UNIFIED and not debate because "The Enemy" (Republicans) will win from "OUR" knife fight. Others believed that it was healthy to have a debate on "What Is The Character Of A Black Progressive?".
At the shows end (keep in mind they were playing audio clips of West's argument) I concluded one thing after understanding how certain concepts are misappropriated to prove COVER to a particular ideology:
* I need to do research on the Christian Concept of "Help The Least Of These"
Both West and his supporters attempted to own the mantle of "Blackness" and "Morality" with their claim that a "Least Of These- Centric" public policy platform is superior to all others.
The contaminated irony of this point is that WHERE THESE THEORIES go unchallenged the most - there is great Black suffering and gnashing of teeth.
In my preliminary research I saw that the biblical passage that they have highjacked which talked about "The Least Of These" - it actually notes that "YOU WILL BE JUDGED.................based on how YOU TREAT....the Least Of These".
The main point of my repudiation of this usurpation is that the Christian Progressive has taken then to mean that SOCIALISM is of "Jesus", thus - the public policy pronouncement.
I maintain, to the contrary, that those who transact in Black Inferiority - violating the greater Christian tenant that "We are all made in God's image" are committing a greater offense because they have no plans to make "The Least Of These" into the "UN-Least Of These".
This is the grandest flaw of Cornel West, other "Unattached Progressive-Fundamentalists and the "Machine Progressive-Fundamentalists " who are jingOists.
They care not if a person or community, having matriculated through the set of processes that they have established to extend "Social Justice" to "The Least of These" that these people are not in a more ORGANICALLY STRONGER state of consciousness and academic and material well-being than when they started out.
After listening to the arguments made by Prof West and others that followed on the radio I am forced to conclude that there is a more powerful force that separates the Black Consciousness from the unmitigated pursuit of our "Permanent Interests".
Toping the "Racism Chasing" (Black Defensive disposition) is the "Transaction Of Inferiority". (Label subject to change later).
The reason why Cornel West and other Progressive-Fundamentalists are able to "Keep America On Trial" for failing her "Least Of These" but look dutifully past, lests say a "John Conyers" who is a part of the machine that was on guard when Detroit collapsed is because THEY BOTH have a "congregational agreement" that neither have the power to change the fate of "the least of these" - they must constantly indict AMERICA as the catalyst for the present state of "The Least Of These".
Neither of them are managing a scheme by which "The Least Of These" will be fully actualized people at the end of their process. Their only goal is to sell the INTENTION of making it so. Having failed to edify the people with the management acumen by which they transform themselves into what they aspire to be - the empty STRUGGLE that is "Social Justice Progressivism" lives for anther day.....................BECAUSE THERE ARE STILL POOR PEOPLE AROUND who need their "Services".
