In the film, Inception, Leonardo DiCaprio's character Dom Cobb goes into the dreamscapes of his victims and extract information for a rival corporation. In order to get back to the United States, where he is charged with the murder of his wife, he takes a job that involves an inception, to plant an idea, rather than to steal one. In exchange, his name will be cleared.

Eighteen months ago with the election of President Barack Obama, Fox News turned its ire on black people and begun its own inception program by turning up the paranoid delusions of the Republican base, tapping into the lizard brain of racism amongst its audience.

Day after day, week after week, Fox News' plants manufactured stories that have a a way of making it into the mainstream--Mexicans are over running the country, Muslims in Iran are moments away from making a bomb, and Black folks are going to kill their white babies. No doubt, Fox is trying to start a race war, by inciting white fear. There is nothing more dangerous than white fear, since white folks hold the institutions of power: government, banks, etc. and those in the media portend to equate so called black racism with that of white racism, which is synonymous with institutions of power is utterly ridiculous.

Negrophobia is really a projection; projection, defined in the realm of psychology, as responses that are assumed to reveal inner feelings, motives, and conflicts. If negrophobia is a projection, I'd like to discuss what those projections are. A person suffering from negrophobia is a racist, and holds the belief that if a black person (or any person of color) get into a position of power, that person will exact revenge on past racial oppression because it's what they would do. Whatever a negrophobe says about racism, is the inverse of what they mean. Take a look (or listen) at this clip.



Whatever Rush said, just flip it, and you'll get the rightwing agenda. They hide in plain sight. Here is another:



Just flip what Michael Savage said, and you'll get his true agenda.

Negrophobes have been on a mission, to completely nullify the word "racist" and by calling every black person in power, a "racist" it takes the meaning out of it so it means nothing. They want the word racist to be like the car alarm in the neighborhood that we all ignore now, because it means nothing. White noise.

Fox News and other rightwing media are trying an inception, to create a race war that will turn white against any persons of color. The only people who stand to benefit are the negrophobes who steal from the government's coffers and maintain their power as we all fight for the scrapes.
