Congratulations White Rastafarian!



White people sometimes wear dreadlocks as a fashion statement.  It's fair to say that these people aren't always idiots, but they're usually idiots, cut from the same cloth as dumbfucks who wear crosses as a fashion statement, pretending that they don't retain their religious context in the process.  Of course that context is still a part of the symbol, but these people, foul wannabe iconoclasts that they are, are trying to invent a world where they can arbitrarily introduce or remove meaning from things, these people are worse than Hitler in your mind.

When you decided to dread your hair, it wasn't to make a fashion statement.  You dreaded your hair to represent your dedication to Jah, your dedication to the nation of Babylon or whatever.  We don't really understand the ins and out of Rastafarianism, but you do.  Which is why you, as a white dude, are something of an enigma, because a big part of the militant Rastafarian belief system is that white people are the devil, and that the world would be much much better without them on it.

Today you're going to take that to heart.  After a long talk with your Rasta priest, Craig, you'll decide to take your own life.  You'll do so by stabbing yourself repeatedly while shouting "Aye ree!" at no one in particular until you bleed to death.  An audience consisting mostly of other Rastafarians and irritated religious scholars will politely clap as you do so.  The sound will gently usher you into your eternal slumber, where a giant black god will stare you down for half of eternity, then politely acknowledge your personhood for the rest.

Congratulations White Rastafarian!
