And they deserve it after two decades of goodwill gained in 80's and 90's largely due to NBA. They have been increasingly uppity. They had plenty of chance to reprimand the bad actors and fix the race relation yet they pushed the button like morons.

I can literally only think of the Boondocks guy as a black dude willing to aggressively call out blacks and their faults without giving them the "blame whitey" excuse to get fully out of it.

Otherwise all the others just wanted the short term gain of getting a payday now, and not caring about the later consequences.

Bill Cosby tried. They sure showed him.

I think during Cosby's era there was genuine improvement happening. The 80s had a lot of actual positive, civilized black role models. But between Rodney King and gangsta rap taking off, it all got flushed away in a moment.

It's bit of shame. The black people could have gone further in success and respect if they took Michael Jordan's work ethic and stoic persona as models yet most of them went for the most shallow and flashy fashion shoes. The gangsta rap culture completely brainwashed their brains and attitudes on how they go about their lives.

Moral lecturing no longer effective, Jews most affected.

Her GiveSendGo is over $471k, and will surpass Karmelo Antony's later on tonight.

--edit--

The start of a very good X thread that encapsulates what is going on pretty well, IMO:

Post Reported for:

  • Spam/Self Promotion
  • Rule 15 - Slurs

I don't think this is self promotion, and saying the word Nigger is not a violation of the rule.
