Morisato taming Black Mamba dicks

Takeshi Morisato, a young philosopher teaching in Edinburgh, which, I fondly believe, involves taming Black Mamba dicks which enter his anus for a modest fee, writes in Aeon of  

The taming of Black thought

He does not mean the thought of black people from Africa or South Asia. He means the thought of the descendants of African slaves in America and the Carribean. Why might they have a type of thought different from other people in the countries they live in? The answer is that since they have different genitalia, their minds too are likely to be different. 

The reason White peeps have not all been raped by ginormous black dicks is due to the dicks have been tamed. Obviously, black minds too must have been tamed because even President Obama isn't saying 'ooga booga' and shoving Vice President Biden into the stew-pot. 

Black philosophers now feature on Western curricula,

only in utterly shit University Departments.  

but the European tradition diminishes their radicalism into reassurance

No. The European tradition was to say that darkies don't have brains. Most are cannibals. True, there was a Ghanain philosopher in early eighteenth century Germany but the exception proves the rule- right?

Who gets to decide what counts as philosophy?

Shitheads. 

You might think that, if philosophers in the Western tradition read more Black and Asian philosophers, they would be more inclusive of other intellectual traditions.

We might that philosophers have shit for brains. Smart peeps focus on STEM subject research. A black penis is just a penis. So is a white penis. Black thought is just thought. So is White thought.  

The first Black philosophy professor in Scotland, Tommy Curry,

Who is African American. He lectures on 'the Black Male Experience'. Does it have to do with the burden of having to carry around a ginormous dick?  

has argued that, on the contrary, consumption of minority thinkers could create devastating consequences for many fields of world philosophies, including Africana and Asian philosophy.

They all turned to shit at least three decades ago. Why? They became adversely selective of imbecility. The devastating consequence is having useless shitheads teach nonsense to the unemployable. 

To explain this point, Curry termed this phenomenon ‘epistemic convergence’ in a series of articles in the 2010s.

Which nobody read. Obama was black. He was President. Was his thought all 'ooga booga'? No. It was just thought of a sensible enough type.  

The idea itself can be traced back to W E B Du Bois’s idea of ‘double consciousness’,

Which isn't philosophical. It is psychological or sociological. An African or a German who lives and works in Japan might have it just as Vice President Vance may have it with respect to people like his wife Usha who grew up knowing the meaning of 'cathartic'. Vance says he had to look it up in the OED coz he was trailer trash.  

Frantz Fanon’s ‘sociogeny’, Huey Newton’s term ‘reactionary’, Steve Biko’s ‘Black consciousness’, and Sylvia Wynter’s adaptation of the ‘sociogenic principle’, to name but a few similar concepts.

All of which passed their sell-by date while I was still wearing flared trousers 

In line with this radical Black tradition, Curry argues that white academia has managed to integrate the same list of Black thinkers,

low IQ shitheads. But what else can you teach if you have a low IQ and your students have difficulty tying their own shoe-laces.  

not to critically challenge its traditional concept of humanity that has marginalised these thinkers, but rather to integrate them into the larger narrative that continues to justify and sustain its legitimacy.

These fuckers are pretending slavery is still a thing. 

This creates the ‘interrogationist milieu’, where the

Gestapo tortures you because it suspects you may be part of 'the underground railway' smuggling slaves out of the US into Scotland.  

historical works of people of African descent

like Amo? No. He was an actual philosopher 

are constantly measured by the standards of

other contemporary Cartesian philosophers? Fuck that! Them guys wrote in Latin. 

white academia and, especially, in relation to its liberal ideology.

ignorant, not liberal.  

They’re slotted into pre-existing narratives.

Like this shite. 

Their radical challenge to any white-supremacist elements of the establishment is

like the radical challenge thrown down by cats to cabbages.   

carefully redacted, revised, and integrated into the continuation of what we think of as the ‘proper’ form of philosophical thought in the history of Western philosophy.

i.e. one which refers to open questions in logic or mathematical physics.  

Their language – regardless of the fact that this language itself was, in many cases, forced upon them to speak about their lived experience in the process of describing their racialised (non-)being –

in other words, their sense of grievance. But anyone can have a grievance of any sort. This can give rise to paranoid thinking. But paranoia is not philosophy.  

is also paraphrased to avoid perceived offence (by, for example, not using the now archaic technical term ‘Negro’, which carried different connotations in the 1960s), softened through white analogy, or removed. This, Curry argues, creates a ‘methodological and derelictical crisis’ in our study of Black thought.

A similar crisis arises in studying your own shit.  

We could spend pages on each of the Black thinkers I’ve mentioned and their analyses of racism,

if it was directed against them, they were against it.  

but we can see the essence of what they were trying to say in an early article of Curry’s titled ‘On Derelict and Method’ (2011). Curry argued that the recent rise of liberalism in the modern academy has allowed us to examine and cite the works of Africana philosophy insofar as they highlight the ‘inadequacies of traditional European thought’.

Curry was wrong. What had happened was that non-STEM subjects had turned to shit in Western Universities.  

Africana philosophy, in other words, has begun to enjoy increasing validation for its critique of the Anglo-European past.

Not in Africa (except South Africa because there Whites to expropriate there). In any case, you don't need to be able to read and write to say 'Whitey be debil!'  Consider Mudimbe's 'Invention of Africa'. It contains no information about Africa obtained from any African source. This suggests that either Africans were incapable of gaining information on their own or else that Mudimbe was an African who, no doubt for very good reasons, had no interest in indigenous or 'emic' knowledge systems outside the "colonial library."

But this is just a roundabout way of saying 'Africans are shit. That's why Europeans invented them. Sadly, instead of inventing Africans as smart, Whitey invented them as stupid. That is why Africa is so shitty- or so African scholars believe.' 

But, because it comes with tacit prejudices deeply rooted in the very tradition it criticises, which still dictates the terms of what counts as philosophical discussions, the whole process of integrating Black thinkers into the traditionally white/Western-style academy ends up validating what European philosophy thinks of as the proper form of being human (or any other major conceptions in philosophy).

The problem here is that everybody- European, African, Japanese, Lesbian, etc. - thinks Philosophy is worthless shite.
