New Zo video: “Victicrat”

posted at 3:15 pm on October 24, 2009 by Ed Morrissey

Long, but worth it, especially for those who get ripped for wandering off the political reservation based on their ethnicity. Zo, who undoubtedly gets plenty of that, produces and plays a supporting role in the video “Victicrat,” which will only be on YouTube for this weekend. After that, it’s exclusively at PJTV (via Six Meat Buffet):

oh Zo...OH ZO…OH ZO... You are the man. That was brilliant…
where are my shades…

jerrytbg on October 24, 2009 at 6:38 PM

but there is certainly something vain about attributing your success solely to your own personal genius.

crr6 on October 24, 2009

Well, if we’re going to use slipshod absolutes, then to be humble in your mind means that one must worship an all-consuming State, right? You said that pride must mean that one attributes all success to only personal genius. All? Pretty absolute there.

You’ll have to pardon us if we don’t fall down and worship government with you. Call us whatever combination of proud, rude, or vain you wish. We just don’t care and we can’t be cowed into falling in-line with the leftist agenda.

Molon labe.

You. Are. A. Joke. (in my humble opinion)

Yoop on October 24, 2009 at 6:31 PM

crr6 is just a typical liberal. He has to push back against any message that might let the black man know he can succeed of the government tit. He can’t have them gettin all uppity.

Conservative message: hard work and personal responsibility are a important for success

Liberal message: You succeed at the whim and behest of big government. Without them you are doomed. you cannot make it on your own. Vote democrat because you are nothing without us.

Ampersand on October 24, 2009 at 6:46 PM

to Zo I say: “…the future so bright, I gotta wear shades”

LEBA on October 24, 2009 at 6:49 PM

Awesome in it’s awesome~y awesomeness.

donkichi on October 24, 2009 at 6:53 PM

A glimmer of, dare I say, hope for the future. Keep it up Zo!

txag92 on October 24, 2009 at 6:56 PM

crr6, you really are reversing reality to fit want you want to believe…
-
To quoth the Rush…
-

Talent on loan from God…

-
Ummm… Seems pretty humble to me, gives full credit to God. And to hear this day in and day out from the ‘approved leader” of the conservative movement republican party. Tisk-tisk…
-
Then on the other hand you have…OBAMA: (from a speech in South Carolina)
-

That’s his job, get you to the polls, vote for Obama. My job is to help him do his job. So I am going to try to be so persuasive in the 20 minutes or so that I speak that by the time this is over, a light will shine down from somewhere.

It will light upon you. You will experience an epiphany. And you will say to yourself, I have to vote for Barack. I have to do it.

And if you make that decision, if that moment happens, then it would be great — even though it’s just one day to go — for you to fill out one of these supporter cards before you leave, because that way we’ll know, you know, who, in fact, is going to be voting. Make sure that you are getting to the right precinct. It will be very heful to Dave in doing his job.

So let me just see a quick show of hands. How many people, be honest, are still undecided about who they’re going to vote for tomorrow? Raise your hands.

Oh, see. Got some live ones right there. There’s one, there’s one over there. A couple others.

All right. We have you now in our sights. We are coming after you, and coming after you hard.

-
Emphasis mine… Pass the Kool-Aid out to those non-believers while your at it.
-
Sounds mighty darn arrogant to me…. The light he speaks of will be brought on by the sheer power of his words and voice. You are indeed sick to love/follow/worship this A*hole.

RalphyBoy on October 24, 2009 at 7:17 PM

Here is a request to Crowder , Zo and O’Keefe
Plz photoshop an “Obama seal of approval”
and stamp it on the mugshots of the bootlicking media- ppl
just like Crowder’s “peace prize” video

Call it ” Here’s my lick prize” or something
Sorry I don’t have twitter account

macncheez on October 24, 2009 at 7:22 PM

Neologism of the decade: Victicrat. That’s gonna go viral…

Preach it, my brother. Tell the truth and shame the Devil.

warbaby on October 24, 2009 at 7:30 PM

Crrr6: get back in your corner,boy

theTarCzar on October 24, 2009 at 7:40 PM

That video is racist. /sarc

Cybergeezer on October 24, 2009 at 7:44 PM

The area I live in is fairly well mixed as far as race goes. It’s mostly Hispanic with a huge allotment of Vietnamese, Laotians and Thai people. It was white 30 years ago with blacks as the predominate minority.

My Southern Baptist church is a great one. Not very big at all and made up of primarily lower income people with a smattering of high income professionals. We have Hispanic and Vietnamese missions that meet in other parts of our church when we do (because of the language barrier). We have had a Laotian Mission that was able to become quite successful and go out on their own.

We have had black people come in from time to time but they leave after a few months. Why? Because they get quite a bit of pressure from the black churches they came from to “come back to their own”. This isn’t something we made up, we asked these people why they left and all have told us the same reason. The pressure was too much for them. We are mostly made up of white republicans. We welcomed them with open arms and will continue to do so. My church may be the exception.. but at least we do what’s right.

GoodBoy on October 24, 2009 at 7:50 PM

He has written a victicratic book
He is lecturing about hope and change
He is bundling an ethnic group/race
He is getting bolder in his hateful rhetoric
Is he running for office?

macncheez on October 24, 2009 at 7:51 PM

James O’Keef as the purple dressed dancing pimp, reprising his recent undercover role, for the win!

AnotherOpinion on October 24, 2009 at 8:01 PM

I don’t like rap, but the message is commonsense. Why get all worked up because a black man thinks right? You guys don’t give people much credit.

gina4 on October 24, 2009 at 8:20 PM

Oh come on Gina…
It makes no difference who delivers the message or the medium by which it is delivered….
If the message rings true …then it is what it is…Truth…pure and simple…
Reading into it…that’s your problem…

jerrytbg on October 24, 2009 at 8:31 PM

Best almost 8 minutes of my day! Thanks–Zo is so cool, I wish he’d run for office!

lovingmyUSA on October 24, 2009 at 8:31 PM

Long, but worth it…

+7%…!

Seven Percent Solution on October 24, 2009 at 8:47 PM

Well done, Zo and crew. This video is awesome. Thank you and keep ‘em coming.

Philly on October 24, 2009 at 8:49 PM

One ideology is proud, but humble. The other is self-congratulatory and pompous.

I’m happy with my choice.

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 5:39 PM

One ideology are either the looters/moochers, or the elitist exploiters of the former. The other are the producers.

Schadenfreude on October 24, 2009 at 8:57 PM

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 5:54 PM

The WalMart founder died in the same 3-bedroom home he lived in before he founded the chain (without government anything). Quit this puerile crap.

Bill Gates didn’t make it on the government’s dole either and is a Yale drop-out. Who cares? We know your side and we know ours. Your elitist pontifications and claims to ‘modesty’ and ‘humility’ are ridiculous. You have only two drives on your side: steel from the producers and fool the stupid to stay in your plantation.

Schadenfreude on October 24, 2009 at 9:02 PM

Why isn’t Michael Steele using this video for his outreach to inner-city voters?

onlineanalyst on October 24, 2009 at 9:11 PM

onlineanalyst on October 24, 2009 at 9:11 PM

He thinks PJTV is a porno site…;)

jerrytbg on October 24, 2009 at 9:17 PM

A great counter-example is the liberal billionaire Warren Buffet. He has always been humble about his success, and expressed gratitude for the governmental institutions (like financial institutions, banks, courts) that have helped facilitate his success. He doesn’t mythologize himself, or attribute his success only to his hard-work and brilliance. He is successful and proud, yet humble.

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 5:54 PM

How exactly can “courts” help a businessman other than by ruling fairly? And, until recently, banks are private businesses, not government institutions. Once government provides some basic infrastructure, its next best move is to get out of the fuggin way.

venividivici on October 24, 2009 at 9:19 PM

Zo should be the president. OBVIOUSLY.

Griz on October 24, 2009 at 9:46 PM

One ideology is proud, but humble. The other is self-congratulatory and pompous.

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 5:39 PM

Binary thinking, boy. God, you can count to two! The world can be divided into two classes; (1) the proud but humble and (2) the self-congratulatory and pompous.

Wow, no pomposity in your self-congratulation that you can classify all conservatives and all liberals! I know lots of liberals who congratulate themselves for their wisdom, pompously, and I know lots of liberals who are truely humble. I know lots of conservatives who are jack-asses, and lots of conservatives who are fountains of common-sense.

So what. It is the ideas and the discussion of the ideas that count, not whether they are “liberal” or “conservative.”

I like Zo because he talks about things like how one can diminish oneself by thinking of oneself as a victim of the other guy while ignoring one’s own actions, and how the confederate Democrats like to pat you on the head and give you a bowl of soup after you have picked their cotton for them voted for them. I enjoy being mean to Democrats, but I do pat them on the head once in a while when they are actually caught thinking, (or being humble).

donbury on October 24, 2009 at 10:08 PM

Bravo!

MCGIRV on October 24, 2009 at 10:16 PM

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 5:39 PM

Giggle; snort. Good one! It is nice to see such a wry sense of humor in a leftist.

Usually you guys can’t crack a joke like that, since you are only happy when everyone else is as miserable and self loathing as you are….. and there are still a few of us remaining who know we have achieved something to be self-congratulatory about, rather than wasting our lives away hoping for a handout from our rulers.

LegendHasIt on October 24, 2009 at 10:43 PM

Sorry, but have you not seen Afrocity’s blog? She and Zo deliver a knock out punch to those libs who assert that black folks need to follow the liberal line….

Is that Jason Mattera in the Uncle Sam suit? I am still laughing from his healthcare rally video with Patch Adams. Are there any hot women in the commune?

margategop517 on October 24, 2009 at 11:51 PM

Crr6, I hardly know any leftists who acknowledge God let alone obeying His laws. Are you a Christian?, born again?? by one of your answers you seem ashamed of your bliefs by not wanting to share them with other believers. If you call those who do obey and fear God do you also call them intolerant? If so then you must think the Lord is intolerant. In reference to this story, do you think its fair that Blacks call conservative ones “Uncle Toms”?

garydt on October 25, 2009 at 12:01 AM

Great concept, less than optimal execution. It’s too long and the rap feels like it rode in on the 80s revival wave. Brevity is the soul of wit, fellas.

holygoat on October 25, 2009 at 12:04 AM

Sadly, singing to the choir.

Speakup on October 25, 2009 at 12:08 AM

Wait… so Crr6 thinks that the financial institutions and banks who gave Buffet LOANS were part of the government???

Wow. That tells you everything you need to know.

xax on October 25, 2009 at 12:12 AM

Larry Elder, an ex Los Angeles radio talk show host has called the “helpless” blacks, victocrats for years. I believe he is planning to run for the senate against Barbera Boxer.

Hehe. Larry Elder is da bomb. I’ll vote for him.

Glad to see his “victicrat” label is catching on with someone.

Machete_Bug on October 25, 2009 at 3:10 AM

As of 3:25 am October 25, 2009 this video is not playing.

If P.J. Media pulled it that was a mistake.

Great video that needed to be seen.

One thing he hasn’t called people is “helpless.” Also, “victicrat” is not a race-specific term. Larry Elder uses it to describe many of those who perpetuate victim status.

The Race Card on October 25, 2009 at 6:25 AM

she’s an atheist…like most libs are. nice try.

right4life on October 24, 2009 at 5:59 PM

To be fair, I think it is more accurate to have it the other way around.

anuts on October 25, 2009 at 6:32 AM

I’ve said before that rap isn’t my bag…but damned if that wasn’t the best music video I’ve seen in months.

AGENTS OF REVIVAL!

Cylor on October 25, 2009 at 6:55 AM

AWESOME!!

thedude on October 25, 2009 at 10:20 AM

Can you get this on MTV?

Two points from the video that should be made nonstop:

Socialism=lack of freedom and opportunity.

Don’t reproduce until you are twenty…. now that is an astounding low age even among Mormons who marry quite young.

I would change that to don’t reproduce without the ring….
That probably sounds like it’s from outer space to some.

petunia on October 25, 2009 at 11:08 AM

Notice conservatives who are successful mythologize themselves, they would rather be vain and patronizing than gracious. They admire themselves. They also fail to admit that governmental institutions, or just flat-out luck played a role in their success.

In contrast successful liberals don’t attribute their success solely to their own unassailable personal genius. They’re successful, yet humble.

Who would you rather emulate?

crr6 on October 24, 2009 at 4:56 PM

You are right. A government that provides for the most freedom…. stays out of the way…. doesn’t interfere…. is small so corruption can be caught early….

Yes that kind of government has helped millions upon millions of Americans succeed for generations!

No one is for no government.

We want small sensible government. Low taxes, good infrastructure, good laws and courts, even some safety nets, and helps for the truly down trodden (help, not dependence)

That is not Barack Obama’s dream. He wants total and absolute control of everything so that nobody has an independent thought ever again.

No freedom to fail, thus no freedom to suceed.

petunia on October 25, 2009 at 11:24 AM

It was rumored that Larry Elder was going to run for the US Senate. The party picked Carly Fiorina (sp) instead. Larry wasn’t enough of a RINO for them.

baldilocks on October 25, 2009 at 12:33 PM

How do I buy the single? :) :) :)

When I saw South Central, I thought Larry The Sage. Sure enough, the man who got me hooked on Conservative Talk Radio, Larry Elder, is connected! I dig Zo! This was a classic. My favorite is the bright red Reagan t-shirt! I miss listening to Larry and can’t wait for him to get back on the radio!
