Some racist idiots in Spain are about to get 8 months in jail. Now, what did these fools do? Did they beat up a Black man for being Black? Did they destroy an Asian man’s car? Did they chant “die, Whitey, die” at some White soccer player? No. And LOL to the last one because we all know ain’t no way anyone would be jailed over that. No, they chanted some unspecified racist things at a Black soccer player. That’s right. Words. Mere words. And they are going to jail for it. Nobody should be jailed just for saying offensive shit, but this is the world we live in now.

The Black guy in question, clearly a stereotypical meat-headed jock, thinks this is great. Of course he does, he’s head-butted too many soccer balls during his career so he probably thinks this has something to do with “muh social justice” and genuine concern for Black people. Which brings me to my second point, which is that only morons think the rich White men who own and run Spain give a fuck about the Blacks! Hell, they don’t even give a shit about the other White men, much less about groups they aren’t a part of! No, this is about scaring people into saying as little as possible, it is about sending the message that non-Whites are special, and above all it is about setting a legal, social, and psychological precedent for what they know will be a very tumultuous future. How long until pissed off Spaniards start chanting “kill the rich”? The way things are going, a couple of decades at the most. Now, if mere racist insults justify jail, what would “kill the rich” justify? That’s right. Jail at best and execution at worst. Trust me on this one — Spain’s rulers are not doing this out of anything other than self-interest.
