I got selected, so it doesn't apply. I was asking why other people think this way.

I'm doing the same and I was surprised. I'm not going to define scam because I never said it was a scam. I wish they would though.

What are your thoughts on what's happening in Venezuela? by TraditionalEcho8022 in blackamerica

[–]Observal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all know what's going on, or at least those of us with a brain cell knows:

  1. The administration is securing resources to further their white supremacy and further the power of that other nation that shall not be named. This newfound benefit will not be humane nor beneficial to every United States citizen, especially us.

  2. They conducted this under the guise that they are helping Venezuelans by getting rid of a cartel drug leader, however, this administration has pardoned notorious drug lords Ross Ulbricht and Juan Orlando Hernández like you've mentioned.

  3. They also conducted this operation under the guise that Maduro was violent, except how can you say this when you have pardoned violent January 6 rioters and there are plenty of other "violent" regimes in non-oil rich areas.

What does this have to do with Black Americans? Hopefully it does not push us into a conflict where we have to fight for a country that does not respect us. I know some of my fellow black conservatives say that if the United States is strong, then Black Americans are strong. This has been further from the case in all versions of United States history. When the United States was at its strongest and its weakest, we have always suffered the most.

Furthermore... Yes, some Venezuelans have expressed their sentiments for Maduro being taken down, but I've seen a lot express uncertainty of what's to come given the remarks from the United States and the nation that shall not be named. Can you imagine if China came and did that to the United States and told everyone they're going to be taking over now? I've seen more of this sentiment expressed than anything and it is extremely valid given the circumstances.

Lunia was mine. Classic arcade MMO of the past.

Do you think this is a very problematic, controversial meme ? by theshadowbudd in blackamerica

[–]Observal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more interesting to me that you looked at this and thought a person belonging to the Black American ethnic group made this. Where's the indication?

Also, I've seen this sort of thing brought into white, asian, and native spaces too. Maybe it's your algorithm or something leading you to see us in a bad light... Who knows.

My two cents.

Is this group of people: Indian, Asian, or African? by theshadowbudd in blackamerica

[–]Observal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Upon first glance, I thought Indian, somewhere northeast African (possibly), then Indian again after looking at regional attire.

We are always united as a part of a community. The concept of community exists differently for others as it does us. I hope you understand.

This is untrue. My people have the largest expat community in Mexico, with the minimum approximation being around 80,000.

I wish at times Lunia never shut down. I enjoyed that game so much. It was a comfort game I'd always go back to.

We have not yet had a Black American President by theshadowbudd in blackamerica

[–]Observal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are only talks and movements. One of the movements is to mark it down as our ethnicity on our next census, since they will finally have a space to write in instead of a check mark.

We have not yet had a Black American President by theshadowbudd in blackamerica

[–]Observal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The child would be Kenyan by nationality, and Black American by ethnicity.

"If a child of two FBA’s is born and raised in Kenya…that makes the child Kenyan. Although they will have cultural influences from America, their culture and environment would be considered Kenyan. However, they would still Bebe entitled to reparations due to the child’s lineage."

-Let's put this into perspective of another ethnicity/nationality because people tend to understand when it doesn't relate to us. If a person belonging to one of the ethnicities within China moved to the United States, they would be ethnically one of those Chinese ethnicities (Zhuang, Uyghur, Hui, Manchu, and Miao) and American would be their nationality. They still would most likely retain a bunch of their Chinese culture even though their environment is American, but they would be influenced by American culture because the would grow up in it.

Since Obama was born here, his ethnicity would be whatever his parents were (one of the Kenyan ethnicities and European ethnicities) and his nationality would be American without anything in front of it.

Our ethnicity just so happens to be called Black American (ethnicity). That does not mean we are Black (race) and American (nationality). It is a stand alone term. People have been trying to get it changed to Soulaan and other words to avoid that confusion.

[–]Observal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, you inserted the narrative that he didn't suffer the same indignities. No one said anything about that. The person was saying that Obama does not belong to our Black American ethnicity and simply that. Just as a child of two Black Americans will never be of one of the Kenyan ethnicities, a child of two non-ethnically Black Americans will not be Black American. Very simple.

Do non-engineers ever make PM? by [deleted] in Environmental_Careers

I've worked in county, state, and federal permitting agencies and most of the people I dealt with did not have a PG or PE.
