Is there something wrong with my hearing? In 5 years I have yet to hear Zero speak in a manner that fits my definition of “articulate”.

I am also somewhat tired of hearing a half white man being continually referred to as “black” in some sort of way that implies racial purity. He hasn’t anything in common with all the urban black yuts; neither in upbringing nor “culturally”.

All socialist smoke and mirrors.

Or *any* definition of “beautiful”.

That gets a rare dual-approval by both the Captain, and the Chief Medical Officer:

He hasn’t anything in common with all the urban black yuts; neither in upbringing nor “culturally”.

Daddy's (allegedly) African, momma's a white woman, and no where in his heritage is there to be found the ties to the slavery of over a century and a half ago he openly resents, none of the inner city experience or gangsta culture (having been raised by his grandparents in Hawaii). None of his resentments (unless reserved for European colonialists in Africa) are real, they are an affectation, just as is his speech, which is a mess of uhhhs and ahhhs without a teleprompter as he gropes for the lexicon to sound articulate for the camera.

All socialist smoke and mirrors.

Precisely. A Madison Avenue package deal Communist, sold to Americans (who bought it) as some sort of penance for the past and salvation for the future.

What suckers.
