Hey, Preacher… leave them kids alone

I searching for downloads for my blog I found a photo of my primo Robert Fierro Villalobos in a De Havilland DH 4, preparing to “bomb the hell”, out of these “good cristianos” with President “Tata Lazaro’s” well considered blessing. The católicos were torturing, mutilating and offing the beautiful and idealistic young teachers sent out by the gov’t., especially but not limited to rural Mexico. All of this for “God”, right? To me personally, Fierro’s actuación in this regard, and the clandestine border-crossing flights of surreptitiously purchased US fighter planes for the Spanish Republicans, and his flouting of US “Non-Intervention Neutrality Laws”, which neither the US, nor Britain, nor France respected, render me proud of his Antifa efforts. As a gay man I have encountered some attitude from regional Mexican Catholics in business here in EE UU, and enjoy reminding them that if I am denied good service for being queer I will set “la ley” on them, which settles their menudo quickly enough. . Como los Estados Unidos, in this regard, tampoco hay dos.

Can you say Ah-Ree-zona? Don’t even dream of telling me those vicious red-necks don’t have that in mind. These rancid-brained latter-day fascisti managed to shut down Chicano History texts as “subversive and Un-American” (it’s not going to stick)–what the hell do you tell brown-skinned kids now? That they came over on “La Mayflower” ?–along with those hypocrites who were “seeking liberty” but strenuously denied it (along with life or the land to live it on) to indigenous peoples? I met these evil twits all over G+ last year–they clicked heels, swarmed in and ganged up on the opposition to croak a repetitious mantra of “No Dream Act–we can’t afford it”, with their pretend “politeness”, and uninvited familiarity: “But Tony, I didn’t call YOU a fascist” (they can’t, I’m Antifa). Boy do they hate to be reminded they’re hugely outnumbered on a brown continent that is veritably rising up. Boy do they hate the fact that the US Southwest saw the first European settlements in 1598–which spoke castilian, not English–and which conflicts seriously with the bull-shit that “America began at the eastern seaboard and rolled inexorably westward”. Boy do they hate to be characterised as not simply loony but destructive for “loving the desert”, but dragging out west their swimming pools, lawns, golf-courses, a serious neurosis about skin color, a historic inability to understand the concept of equality, and the willingness to steal and divert Native-owned water, and the land or forests it runs upon to their own wasteful and short-sighted use. Boy do they hate to be reminded that I recall clearly being in the clutches of culturally inept white crypto-nazis and a luridly oppressive Southern California citrus industry, with it’s bigoted psuedo-education which was not cheap, and which left my darker skinned and “uneducable” brethren illiterate. Why? For the purpose of having a sizeable “passive labor pool”–which didn’t really work, because my raza were unidos and geniuses at labor organizing. My grandparents teachings of “always respecting the cultural other” were scorned for a more utilitarian and very sick hierarchy of “race”–and where mine was at the bottom, if there at all. I spotted that twisted notion at a nine years of age–and soon also the awareness that I was being taught “white history, and not mine!” When I hear or read about the “horrors of nazi Germany”–I am always mindful that Totalitarianism began HERE: Hitler praised the US for it’s useful example of reservations (concentration camps) and was ever-grateful for the timely boost the US Eugenics Movement (extra-powerful in California) gave to his lurid “social hygiene” madness. Take your dog and pony show elsewhere, ass-butt, and go drown your sorrows with that idiot Ken “Burn”, who can’t take it that Chicanos came back from WW II with more medals per capita than white boys–and would rather have left us out of his War films, except we wouldn’t let him.
