Parable of the Parrot by Marvin X

The economic and political dependence of this African neo-colonial bourgeoisie is reflected in its culture of apenmanship and parrotry enforced on a restive population through police boots, barbed wire, a gowned clergy and judiciary; their ideas are spread by a corpus of state intellectuals, the academic and journalistic laureates of the neo-colonial establishment.

The king wanted parrots around him. He wants all his ministers to wear parrot masks. He said he had to do the same for the previous king. He only said what the king wanted to hear, nothing more, so he advised his ministers to do the same. In fact, they must encourage the people to become parrots.

Yes, he wanted a nation of parrots. Don't say anything the kings does not want to hear. Everything said should be music to his ears. And don't worry, he will tell you exactly what he wants to hear in his regular meetings and public addresses to the nation. Everyone will be kept informed what parrot song to sing. No one must be allowed to disagree with the king. This would be sacrilegious and punishable by death.

The king must be allowed to carry out the dreams that come to his head. No one else should dream, only the king. In this manner, according to the king, the people can make real progress. There shall always be ups and downs, but have faith in the king and everything will be all right. Now everyone sing the national anthem, the king told the people.

There must be a chorus of parrots, a choir, mass choir singing in perfect unity. Let there be parrots on every corner of the kingdom, in every branch and tree. Let all the boys sing like parrots in the beer halls. Let the preacher lead the congregation in parrot songs. Let the teachers train students to sound like parrots. Let the university professors give good grades to those who best imitate parrot sounds. Let the journalists allow no stories over the airwaves and in print if they do not have the parrot sound.

The king was happy when the entire nation put on their parrot masks. Those who refused suffered greatly until they agreed to join in. The state academics and intellectuals joined loudly in parroting the king's every wish. Thank God the masses do not hear them pontificate or read their books. After all, these intellectual and academic parrots are well paid, tenured and eat much parrot seed.

Their magic song impresses the bourgeoisie who have a vested interest in keeping the song of the parrot alive. Deep down in the hood, in the bush, the parrot song is seldom heard, only the sound of the hawk gliding through the air in stone silence looking for a parrot to eat.

Parable of the Black Bourgeoisie by Marvin X

The black bourgeoisie is a class of very sick people who go about their daily round pretending all is well. They have a gang of police who do not carry guns but are yet dangerous because they use masking tape to gag and silence the mouths of any and all who dare defy their sick value system of addiction to white supremacy that is full blown.

The culture police will silence or simply ignore those who refuse to speak the language of the black bourgeoisie, a language taught to them in the neo-colonial schools, churches, mosques and workplaces.

This class of trained monkeys includes artists, teachers, preachers, politicians and media parrots who make sure those who defy the culture police are punished by silence or ignored by non-invitation to their world of make believe.

They are not interviewed in the media, or invited to speak or teach at schools, colleges and universities, unless at their own expense. They may sometimes be invited and paid, but the culture police make sure no students are there to hear them, so they speak in an empty auditorium, even though they are paid handsomely. The black bourgeoisie don't care how much they are paid, just don't let students hear what they have to say. The culture police will actually speak after they speak and admit they have nothing to say, that they are rambling on to neutralize the atmosphere, to negate any raw truth that may have been said.

The black bourgeoisie culture police place those who defy them on house arrest, similar to the woman in Burma, for those who resist are not allowed to work, unless they agree to sing Silent Night, the national anthem.

One cannot say the A word, B word, C word, D word, E word or F word. In short, one must shut up and go along with the "King's English," of course the King was a pervert, oppressor, exploiter, robber and rapist, so who in their right mind would want to speak the "King's English"?

Rather than teach the masses in their own language, the "Mother tongue," how to behave, how to stop beating their partners, how to love themselves, the black bourgeoisie would rather the common people beat, maim, and kill their mates. Even when the masses or common people fight and steal the literature in their "Mother-tongue," the black bourgeoisie don't care, for they cannot allow them to speak in their language, they must be stopped by any means necessary.

And yet, the "King's English" and the language of the black bourgeoisie is filled with lies, duplicity and contradictions. Their language hides truth, especially of their sick, pitiful lives, terror in their mansions, in bed, hours of drunkenness and drug abuse, lechery and depravity, the golden handcuffs, incest, adultery, prostitution , emotional and verbal abuse--yes, in their moment of passion the black bourgeoisie actually use so-called foul language, yes, the very language they despise and condemn in the common people and those who speak or write in such language.

And still they walk with an air of superiority. They cannot speak or greet you on the street. There are perpetually in a rush or in a hurry going nowhere but to some din of iniquity where they wink and blink to increase their inordinancy and conspicuous consumption.

Their pseudo puritan language covers a multitude of sins and wickedness. Smiling faces belie the terror of their lives, for are they not sycophants of the worse kind, ass kissers in short, for some boss, some high class pimp in a suite, far above the street.

And yet, the black bourgeoisie are only one paycheck away from the street people who drink rot gut wine and push shopping carts, but at least they love each other with a love that is true and real!

Baraka said, "Where the soul's print should be there is only a cellulose pouch of disgusting habits." They suffer negritis, an inflammation of the negroid gland at the base of the brain, caused by negrocities or bad habits!

The black bourgeoisie were told long ago by E. Franklin Frazier about their world of make believe and conspicuous consumption. Nothing has changed, except there is more of the same.

Parable of Iraq by Marvin X

Parable of Iraq

The war in Iraq has not begun. It shall begin when the Americans leave--now what day might that be?
They are still in Germany, Japan, and elsewhere. They ain't in Vietnam, ha? But in Iraq,they have merely
opened Pandora's box. As they draw down, the spirit sshall dance in the desert winds.T
he Shia have power they've never had before, not since before the martyrdom of their imams after
the death of the prophet. The Shia say to hell with the democratic process, there shall be Shia
power until they see fit to share power with the Sunnis, their oppressors and eternal theological
enemy.The Sunni must receive the big payback! They must suffer justice for theyears of domination
and destruction of Shia culture. Why should theyshare equal power after years of oppression.

When a man beats his wife, he loses a certain power, his stature is reduced, his rights curtailed.
His wife will say, you blew it buddy. You're lucky I didn't kill you in your sleep. We have seen
the sectarian battles in Iraq. But we ain't seen nothing yet. Of course the sectarian is in reality geo-political.

The Sunni neighbors in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and the Gulf states have no intention to allow
Shia power to rule unobstructed, without sabotage at every turn, especially since the Shia are
theological and geo-political brothers with Iran.

The Sunni will do as they have been dong since the US invasion: collaborate with the US,
while at the same time undermine the Shia at every turn. The Shia can be destroyed because
they are not considered real Muslims. Just as Sunni Muslims do not consider the Nation of Islam
real Muslims. They barely accept thefollowers of Warthideem Muhammad as real Muslims, after all,
what do niggers know about Islam? This racism is no different than Christian racism. One o'clock
Friday is the most racist hour in Islam, just as eleven 0'clock Sunday is the most racist hour in Christianity.

The Sunni/Shia conflict is an eternal contradiction that cannot be resolved except by political domination,
or politics by other means, as in war.The Shia are in a mode of expansion, from Iran, through Iraq to
Lebanon, or from the Tigris and Euphrates to the Mediterranean. The Sunni will attempt to block them,
and the Zionist and Christian America shall assist as they are doing at this hour.They will do so under
the guise of stopping Iran's nuclear program.

The Sunni/Zionist/USpropaganda machine is in high gear preparing the world for the destruction
of Iran, but the real purpose is not their fear of Iranian Nukes, but Shia geo-political expansion.

Of course what we are witnessing is the rise of the Persian empire. Even with their reactionary theocracy,
the Iranians/Persians have outflanked the Sunni regimes by supporting Hamas and Hezbollah, thus
earning the respect ofthe Arab masses suffering under the yoke of reactionary Sunni Muslim regimes.

The Iranian theocracy does not have clean hands, but they do stand closer to the Arab
masses than the oppressive Sunni governments. America's mission is, of course, oil, oil, oil. She doesn't
give a damn about Sunni or Shia, only as pawns in the game of geo-political/economic hegemony.

As per America, even the Zionists are expendable. In the end, she will give up support of the Zionist
for a barrel of oil! She will give up her mother for two barrels!
