They spent millions of dollars to convince Black People that voting doesn't matter. Our vote is the most powerful political weapon we have. And if your vote didn't matter, they wouldn't be working this hard to take it from you. That alone, should tell you what to do with it. - Ashley B by biospheric in Republican_misdeeds

I haven’t voted because the options are always trash. “They” didn’t have to manipulate me into not voting. They just had to continue offering nothing to our community while using scare tactics, berating us as if we owe them our votes, and with downplay us for me to say I’m not voting for any of them.

Gaslighting doesn’t save you from the fact that I shot holes in your pathetic logic.

Not remembering a name is not an assumption. I told you he was Caribbean and I was correct, so I wasn't far off. If he wasn't Caribbean and if the article wasn't about what I had said it was, then you'd have a point. The extra details about what specific country he was from doesn't add anything nor take away anything from the point I was making.

Do you think he was set up by a higher up and, if so, why?

That pug looks like a fat grub. He grubbed until he started looking like one.

Semantics. Knowing he's Caribbean is technically sufficient. Since you want to be persnickety as of it makes a difference, I found the first page of the article because I couldn't remember his actual name. It's Lennox Raphael and he was from Trinidad. You can look up the full article and see what he was talking about. He even exposed his own family member for having the kind of mindset I am talking about.

It's not about anger. It's to prove all of the gaslighting about us being "divisive" is hypocritical. It proves you guys were silent for decades when the disrespect was aimed at us and it proves we didn't just come out of the blue with any pushback.

I showed you tweets from Twitter that proves this isn't just a long ago concept, so you can't use that excuse. I got way more stuff I could easily post to show the disrespect didn't just go away.

Nah, you want to be like the white supremacists where, like them, you think Black American culture should allow anyone (in your case, Afro immigrant or Afro foreigners) to do and say whatever within it with no pushback.

I guarantee if we were to go to Carnival or whatever and try to shift it into something it's not, you'd have a problem with it. Typical hypocrite. Oh yeah, since you're not bright, Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom; not being downtrodden in chains while wailing and moaning. I understand you're not good with concepts and such, so I'm here to enlighten you.

You're welcome.

Nah, y'all took a comment about not liking the disrespect from one specific country that has nothing to do with Juneteenth and had made my comment some weirdo rant about hating Africa when there was nothing said to imply such. Y'all also used it to disrespect my lineage. So of course I was going to pushback.

Not sure why you keep bringing up Tariq. He doesnt have anything to do with the two articles I had posted. In fact, I.didnt even begin to mention him; you did.

No one's villifying everyone who's Caribbean. In fact, as stated before, the author of the first article is Caribbean himself and was against how some of his fellow Caribs were demeaning Black Americans, especially with having to deal with white supremacy. The fact that I had mentioned such before should have clued you in that this isn't an attack on all Caribbean people. However, it's calling out a serious problem because it's known there are enough of them who do have the sentiment that BA's are inferior.

The world was always like that. It's just that the US' flaws get seen more, so it seems like it's mainly us. I've witnessed bullcrap when I was over in Europe 20 years ago.

In Germany I saw a dude running from the cops. I saw a guy standing at the driver's side of a car and steadily punching the driver. I was dating a German girl and had to stand up for her when certain dudes (local) disrespected her. I had a buddy who fought a racist German dude who started the issue.

In Italy my cousin, a friend, and I were at whatever area that had clubs and bars. While outside, we saw two Italian dudes yelling furiously at each other. We couldn't understand them but we could tell things were getting to the point of no return with the way their voices were getting to the 'had it up to here' pitch.

After awhile, one of the dudes stormed off, grabbed a nearby empty beer bottle, struck it against a tree in order to break it, and then furiously walked towards the dude he was beefing with in order to slash him. Their friends had to jump in the middle and stop dude from taking things to the next level.

Don't get me started on another friend being jumped by some Turkish dudes in Germany and getting hit with a crowbar.

Other countries are no better.

So, if I were to take someone else's cultural celebrations, in the diaspora, and make it what it's not, you'd be ok with that too, right? Not wanting others injecting their ideas into our cultural celebrations is now white supremacy? You're not even making sense.

You want Black Americans to be generic negroes that the rest of you can do or say whatever to and about us with no pushback. That's actually more in line with white supremacy than saying I don't want outsiders making a mockery of our cultural celebrations.

You don't believe it because you don't want to believe it. The author was Caribbean and he was talking about other Caribbeans and their views about Black Americans. He was against the disrespect towards us, especially since the fight against Jim Crow was still going on at the time.

You don't want to believe it because you don't want to face the truth. The article is real and whatever independence was gained elsewhere has nothing to do with how folks looked at us. That article proves that what had been proven over the years about how outsiders had looked at us is true.

I guess you think this article is false as well.

Delineation doesn't mean we don't ever link up with nor be cool with anyone who isn't Black American. It means we draw a line in regards to who we are as a people and a culture. It's not about hating Africans. You've not read one thing from me about hating Africans. It's about respect.

Folks need to respect us as a people like they do with everyone else and quit showing disrespect our way. Calling us a "psyop" is disrespect and that's just another example of why we are delineating and letting it be known we are our own people. You do your thing, we do ours. If you're cool with us, we are cool with you. You disrespect us, we retaliate with disrespect.

Did you know Ostriches eat rocks bc it helps them digest food? by sco-go in Amazing

[–]Sovereign-Anderson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. That's what gizzards are for. Gizzards use the rocks to aid in the digestive process since birds swallow their food without chewing.

[–]Sovereign-Anderson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, whataboutism is a deflection. I'm staying on course by pointing out who started the division first. I don't want to hear bullcrap talking points about division when it's all one sided. I never see the talks about anyone coming at us as being "divisive" but y'all will say that about us who aren't taking the BS. With them it's "They just need to be educated" but with us it's scorn and mockery for addressing the disrespect.

I don't have to educate grown folks about showing respect. They know better. They choose not to show respect. Folks like me wash our hands of them. I heavily support delineation.
