True Crime for Survivors

Women Getting Randomly Sucker Punched -- Police Say No Relation, Not Hate Crime

4/6/2024

One of the people arrested in a string or random attacks where women have been punched in the face on city streets is named Skiboky.  Rhymes with both kooky and spooky.
Skiboky's social media feed is the psychosocial version of a clogged dispose-all.  A plethora of random bits and pieces are in there, partially ground up and full of bacteria. 

I'm sure it will all be taken down eventually. 

I'm looking through the shorts on his YouTube feed while I still can.  Because Skiboky's the poster child of how nothing makes sense in America.   His videos are some extreme brain diarrhea of racism and sexism, overlaid with  angry politics and delusions of grandeur.  The only surprise about him being charged with assaulting a random woman is that it took this long.

This random face-punching situation, which started in New York and has now moved to Chicago, is a natural extension of how much everybody has hated Karen for the last five years or so.  My life changed noticeably once that meme took off. People behaved differently toward me in public.  I started speaking only when spoken to.  It's been fashionable to openly hate white women for a while.  I'm surprised it took this long to boil over. 

For example, in the above video, titled "the white man," Skiboky obviously  has a bone to pick with the white MAN.  And yet the person he's accused of randomly smacking in the face  unprovoked is clearly a woman, and not a scary one either.  Funny  how that works, how often the hate mail for Kevin gets delivered to Karen.

Picture
And of course, THIS!  LOL  All his rage at the white man leads him directly to... TRUMP, current leader of the Confederate party.  Weird how the snake always eventually eats its tail, how the haters somehow all end up together at the end of the day.  That's the way the bowl swirls when you push the handle (multiple times if you're Trump).

.I tried to embed a number of Skiboky's shorts, and for whatever reason they all show up as "private" when I do that.  But they aren't private.  There are many clips of Skiboky inserting himself into the lives of ordinary New Yorkers of every race and gender, in many obnoxious and frightening ways.    The fact that he posted some of these at all speaks to his terrifying mental state.  Skiboky spends a lot of time freaking women out on the train, acting strange with law enforcement, and ranting about Marcus Garvey.

If you scroll through Skiboky's feed, ask yourself how often someone came close to getting harmed.
  • "This white piece of shit just put his hands on me. You not gonna press charges?" Skiboky rages at two cops in this video.  No, the police aren't pressing charges.  Skiboky is furious, screaming, "Where this N* at?" over and over as he descends into the subway in search of the person.  The police did nothing to prevent that person from being found and shoved onto the tracks.  Skiboky appears to be quite the ticking bomb, like so many of the MAGA faithful.
  • Here is Skiboky's incredibly weak pickup game.  "What kind of hat is that?"  "I got it from Shein," a woman on a train politely answers about the most basic beanie hat in the world.  "I thought it was the same type of hat 'those people' have," gesturing to one white guy with the same kind of hat.  She gets up and leaves.  Is it her stop?
  • In this video, an elder patiently tries to explain that the line for services restarts each day, and it doesn't matter that he was there yesterday also.  He counters that he's SKIBOKY, Marcus Garvey's grandson.  She asks him what that means. He apparently wants to get in front of her in line, and is willing to be a huge asshole about it, because he was there yesterday.  Me, I just let people like him step in front of me constantly in Long Beach.  Absolutely not worth it.  My time is my own.  Easier to let the manbaby have his way in line than deal with it after he punches me.  But ask yourself, why did he post this?  Why was he trolling this woman at all?
  • This video opens with Skiboky apparently mistaking himself for a well-known superhero in Gotham, specializing in non-issues that nobody asked for help with.  "It's me, Skiboky, Marcus Garvey's grandson," he notifies a young man crouching down on a sidewalk, being assisted by a relative.  He offers to call the police for them.  The woman, possibly his mother, says it's okay, he's just not feeling well.  Skiboky blames the Democrats for a bad school lunch, and advises the youngster to "never let a girl see you down.  The black man always gotta stand up, brother," because he was crouched down while vomiting.   "Um, okay," he replies, probably feeling a whole lot better now that he realizes he's not Skiboky.
  • This video entitled "Not nice" appears to be nothing more than Skiboky videotaping a young man wearing a Frozen backpack on a train.  In hindsight I'm glad he wasn't attacked.  Skiboky has harsh words for men he finds insufficiently  masculine.
  • Here is Skiboky refusing to pay an Asian street vendor, calling him various rude names including "faggot."  "Y'all white people keep playing with us blacks, man."   He again mentions his credentials as Marcus Garvey's grandson. Because Skiboky's family was abused by Chinese immigrants?  Because Marcus Garvey would be so proud?  Again, this was posted by Skiboky, not the vendor.
  • In this video, "Don't Act Lightskin," Skiboky approaches someone that he recognizes from giving out free haircuts.  Jim Jordan? Joyner? He  tries to start taking a video, but is quickly rebuffed for not asking permission.  There are other people there waiting to greet the guy.  Skiboky gets handled.  THAT GUY WAS IN ZERO DANGER OF GETTING FACE-PUNCHED, GO FIGURE. 
  • "Wherever there's darkness, the black man stands as the light of the world.  The whole world would be in darkness without the black man.  He's amazing."  And in the background, frogs seem to be vomiting the phrase "I love you."  This is Skiboky, and why he must punch us. For our own good.
  • The superhero nobody asked for  intervenes in a fender bender, apparently for no reason other than to side with a man against two women.  Because this is America, this unhinged person will be left roaming the streets until he actually kills some woman.  Then when they solve it as a cold case, he'll be sent to prison for a while.  And it won't be charged as a hate crime, which it totally would be. Whoever he kills will be a woman, and it will be random as fuck.  She will be any available woman.  Skiboky is a ticking bomb of hatred, looking for women to antagonize.
  • In a video called "Double Twins" maybe Skiboky thinks he's dissing this Latina by calling her twins with her white friend?  They're both exponentially too cute to talk to him.  Why does he post videos of himself striking out so hard?  He's shockingly nuts while focused on women in public --  these girls, grandmas in line, really all of them.  He's a disaster waiting to happen to some vulnerable person.
  • No seriously, Skiboky will approach a group of transit police, instigate a fight with one of them, and project a ton of wild, racist shit onto him.  The guy gives him some friendly recognition in a possible de-escalation attempt.  This seems to be another video of the same good-natured guy.  But one thing I can tell you for sure, there is no reasonable way to deal with Skiboky no matter who you are, what race or gender. 
  • In a video titled Spanish Fly, Skiboky gets smacked by a black woman on a train.  He makes a beeline to approach her from behind as she's on her phone.  She wheels around, furious, and cracks him one.  Does he know her?  Has he bothered her before?  Did he touch her or what?  Why does he post this shit?  What does the title mean, that it turned him on to have bothered her like that?  Or that she turned him on so much he couldn't resist bothering her?  Will this be presented as evidence of him being a menace to society?  As a hate crime against women? Not until there's a corpse.
  • Skiboky trolling the funeral of a clergyman.  "Was he black?"
  • As part of his campaign for governor, Skiboky mentions to a random woman waiting in line that he can tell she didn't put lotion on her feet!!!!
ABC7:

"NYPD said there were seven incidents of women being punched In Manhattan. However, police do not believe any of the attacks are related"

See, the attacks aren't "related," in that no, they're not coordinated.  The people who are doing it don't know each other or whatever.  It's just where we're at as a community now.  This is where our margins have frayed to.  This is where our Overton Window has shifted to, the new normal.
