I’m working on a new piece of fiction, and as I was creating the various characters, I wondered what they were like? Were they young or old? Fat or thin? Attractive or ugly? White or black? Italian, French, German, Mexican, Egyptian …. You get the idea.

Unfortunately, the prospect of writing a black character is fraught with difficulty. The woke world wants to make us afraid of so many things. E.g., If I make all my characters white, the woke will say, “See, you live in a white world and you’re prejudiced against black people.” But if I make a black character, the woke will say, “how dare you write a black character? You don’t know what it’s like to be black.”

Right. Like I know what it’s like to be any of my characters.

I don’t know what it’s like to be fat, for example. I could stand to lose five pounds, but I’ve never been fat. And of course I’ve never been a woman.

I think the only way to make the woke happy is to make all the characters me.

(Don’t worry, I have no interest in making the woke happy, and I hope none of them ever bother to read anything I’ve written.)

P&C drink and comment on Jailbreak’s Big Punisher beer, then discuss a shockingly racist infographic on the distinguishing marks of white culture. It lists a series of characteristics that are allegedly unique to whites — things like objective, rational thinking, belief in cause and effect relationships and the scientific method, working hard, deferred gratification …. It sounds like something written by a bunch of white nationalists, but it actually came from the National Museum of African American History and Culture. It’s amazing it got through review.

Portions of the left have gone so far into insanity that they’re moving things backwards. P&C comment on a hilarious video that makes exactly that point — where a woke person and a white racist agree on a whole series of outrageously racist positions.

“Your racial identity is the most important thing about you.”

“Minorities are a united group that think and act the same.”

“Roll back discrimination laws so we can hire based on race.”

And on it goes.

The woke left has become the very racists they claim to hate.

Trader Joe’s decided not to cower before some woke high school kid who complained that their playful use of “Trader Joe” — translated for different foods as “Trader Giotto’s,” “Trader Ming’s,” and “Trader Jose’s” — was racist.

Let’s hope woke-ism has jumped the shark and we can put all this lunacy behind us.

Because “complicated” allows for different views. Different interpretations.

WALSH: George Floyd Body Cam Footage Is Out. The Story Is Far More Complicated Than Media Led Us To Believe.

I am absolutely not defending the way the police handled George Floyd. But I am also not willing to believe what the lying cretins in the media tell us, and certainly not what the race hustlers say.

We’re not going to know what really happened until all the facts are out on the table and reviewed in a competent court of law, and we should wait until then before we come to any firm conclusions.

P&C drink and review Hop Stoopid Ale from Lagunitas Brewing, then discuss “the smartest man in America,” Thomas Sowell.

While he never speaks much about it, Thomas Sowell has a very interesting life story that would make a good movie — if Hollywood cared about black conservatives.

Sowell speaks clearly, converting complicated concepts into ordinary language that regular people can understand.

At the foundation of his philosophy is two contrasts. First, between practical knowledge and academic knowledge. Second, between the constrained vision — that takes into account the limits of human nature — and the unconstrained vision — which believes man can be perfected by the correct policies.

P&C end the show with a series of pithy Sowell quotes.
