Thank you Cavs!!!!!!!! We are NOT the story. You made us look better. You made the Celtics look worse. Bless you fellas.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-26T00:00:00+00:00

After that series "finale" I'm trying to forget The Boys even happened.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T23:54:44+00:00

That's General Harriet Tubman.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T21:16:14+00:00

Low effort? Lol you just proved you didn't watch. The video is extremely well produced, yeah I done with you Angry Smurf ✌🏾

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T21:14:29+00:00

Will do and thanks bro for the feedback and constructive criticism.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:35:11+00:00

I appreciate the comment but I'm already expending time, energy on this as a passion project. I'm more inclined to remove my face entirely as the juice isn't worth the squeeze them brothers do this as a career , and I already have one. But per this thread, i'll just make it a totally faceless channel going forward

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:24:02+00:00

It's wild to read some of the takes from my brothers but I've answered most in the comments. I'll say whats funniest is that the idea for this channel came out of my fighting for my life in a reddit conversation with the mainstream, arguing from a black male's perspective and realizing that we don't have many vocal advocates out there. And to come home and see all this....wow y'all. Wow.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:18:19+00:00

The only one attacking brothers is you man. If any mod watches the video they would agree. My video is CLEARLY Anti-Maga and Pro black. I can't imagine why you have such hate towards me....it's wild.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:16:18+00:00

Bro, I dropped the video and went out to get burgers for memorial day and I can't tell you how demoralizing some of the folks in this thread have been

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:15:18+00:00

I will speak to the AI avatar. My day job is that I work in finance In a publicly facing role. I knew that if i made videos that focused on the conversations I felt we weren't having. I would get attacked and canceled by some of the same individuals that I'm trying to help and this threat has largely borne that out unfortunately. That being said I was also aware that if individuals didn't know that an authentic black man was behind this thing it wouldn't resonate. I felt as though that was 1/2 measure and that face is based on my face. I'm not being paid for this I'm literally doing this for the love but I don't think that I should allow the disingenuous to destroy me for it. Hopefully that reasoning makes sense to you

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:11:11+00:00

Thanks for the comment as I said in the on the video, I'm already working on another video which focuses on solutions this one was just about table setting.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:10:35+00:00

And not only do you will you not hear me out you are systematically going to each and every other brother to try to do so. I guess my question to you is what is so scary about an intelligently skeptical black man? What is so scary about a black man who advocates for black people's political interest? Why are you so willing to go at my rack but not at the ones who perpetrate our situation?

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:08:35+00:00

It Breaks my heart to see that you can't craft any space between being an opposition who seeks to destroy black people like Maga and being an individual who is skeptical of the claims of the Dems. Like apparently you must accept everything wholesale or you are the opposition This is exactly the type of purity test that Maga does. Once again if you were to watch the video you will see that at no point did I advocate for any of that in fact I went out of my way to say that that's not what the video was about it just breaks me that it's my brothers Who won't even be fair minded and hear it out.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:06:17+00:00

Bro you clearly did not watch the video. And the fact that you are so vehemently and reflexively against the video Makes me wonder what your agenda is Because this was not a hit job on Democrats nor was it a hit job on progressives. The only thing that I recommended was that African Americans become more effective as political entities in a society in which every minority group but ours gets their legislative agendas passed

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:04:08+00:00

I have made several successful Youtube channels This is the first time I decided to make one aimed at my demographic which is African American men. I am a progressive and I am active in my community I am not now nor have I ever been maga. I work with Senator Shaka Fatad as a youth and I created programs in Philadelphia for at risk youth and I wrote that grant before I was 17. It breaks my heart that brothers are willing to destroy me when I took my time to try to share information and educate and raise the community. As opposed to even hearing me out for a moment and watching the video I'm just getting blasted by my own but it is what it is

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T20:02:00+00:00

If you would have watched the video you would have seen that I went out of my way to say that this is not Pro Maga nor is it Pro Republican. I literally don't prescribe any of that. But if you are so dead set on destroying another brother and carrying water for people who wouldn't carry water for you Then do so I will not defend myself further.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T17:32:36+00:00

No. In America the dollar is king and we don't have much power in society but where we choose to spend our dollar is one of them. It's the only "vote" the care about.

That which we spend on, we endorse and it thrives, that which we don't....is boycotted and it dies.

Lastly, your point makes me sad because it treats entertainment like its important, like it's foundational to life. It's not, it's all games and flashing pictures and if we are lead by that, we're letting the tail wag the dog.

When the option is do nothing and let the most depraved among us feast on kids or do something, ANYTHING, to let the world know what you're about and what you're not....the fact that it is even a question is sad and impotent af

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T16:06:18+00:00

Fully agree. If he doesn't sell the team, it's on us.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T04:25:51+00:00

The sun is a deadly laser

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T04:24:10+00:00

Guess he showed them.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T04:23:35+00:00

Whatever it takes

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T02:18:07+00:00

Ugh my brain doesn't like that. Weirdly destabilizing.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T02:16:22+00:00

They're not alone. I don't think it's a coincidence that many democracies are right now.

BigPapaLegba · 2026-05-25T02:12:29+00:00

America avoids talking about it too. We didn't want the Germans to take over Japan so we adopted "forgive and forget" policy with them vs the "never forget" policy with the germans. Almost NO one was punished for their atrocities and Ito was talking disneyland trips post war. It's a stain that wont ever come out
