  1. Definitions of ALL words change depending on who is in power and or what the majority thinks the definitions are. I study many many different philosophies and many of them often contradict eachother but I give them each their due respect. However I have my own definitions for certain things. This is necessary to avoid confusion within one's self. The next step....to avoid confusion with OTHER people...is to find out what THEIR definition of a word is so that you both can establish an agreement on the terms used. My personal definition of racism is relatively simple: Racism = Negative thoughts, speech, or actions towards others primarily because of their race.
  2. And YOU'RE a 31 year old in a 19 year old's body.....lol. 🧐 My word! You sure take a beautiful picture. I can tell you don't eat a lot of red meat or drink a lot of liquor. Not within the past few years atleast. You don't find a lot of American women over 30 who still have such a slim and slender physique. I get the sense that you or your parents are from the Carribean....like St. Kitts or St Martinique. To keep it real....... Although I love and appreciate the body of a young woman, I've gotten so used to going after older women that a fat jiggly belly, butt with cellulite, and sagging titties are almost invisible to me unless she's TOO exaggerated or simply made the "wrong" way for my tastes. I tend to focus more on PROPORTIONS than size itself.
  3. Thanks for posting this Richard. While I disagree with how you get to opposing Reparations l think you're wise to do so.
  4. Oh you don't know what NVM is but know how to SEXT. You perpetrating a fraud.😭 You a young man in a older gentleman's body. If your mind is made up, then I can't compete.😂 I'll just try to sway another older gentleman my way.😚 Me from a few days ago. Tried to post my profile but it wouldn't fit. And I'm too old to care to convert it.
  5. "Whooaah! We didn't know ANY of that until you told us! Thanks for the education. That really changes our opinions about the entire ordeal! Lol......
  6. I still believe this entire California Reparations movement is a straight up TRICK. It's high level deception aimed at manipulating weak minded AfroAmericans who sincerely think that the state of California is seriously going to give them ANYTHING. ....except a ticket to prison if they aren't careful. There are more Black folks IN prison in California than out, but people believe such a racist state actually cares enough about AfroAmericans to pass out Reparations checks????
  7. Absolutely! Those who designed these machines know EXACTLY Who the intelligence is behind them even if they don't tell the public. I believe that's really what CERN and many of these other research institutes are about. Figuring out ways to gain knowledge and higher technology from the Spiritual world and bringing it into this one so they can have more power over other people. That's what Hitler and the Nazis were trying to do. What they fail to understand.....which is common sense to me.....is that a mere human being CAN'T CONTROL these Spirits they are interacting with. These Spirits are much more intelligent, older, wiser, and stronger than them. It's kind of like a bunch of ants or worms trying to come up with some "technology" to use humans to their advantage......an absolute joke.
  8. You're right...... Perhaps a better way of saying it is that instead of having A culture, we have MULITPLE cultures. The U.S. has almost as many cultures as there are people.....lol....and I like it that way personally. I used to say we needed to have a culture and tradition like some of the foreigners who I saw coming over here being so successful with their families and marriages in tact and making money with their work ethic; but then I changed my mind. I reasoned that their culture and work ethic kept their nation POOR to the point they had to leave it....so obviously their culture is not the answer. Ours is.
  9. Reparations for ADOS involves more than cash payments to individuals. Real reparations would also include an infrastructure investment for guaranteed housing, healthcare, education full voting rights, etc. It's my belief that the reparations conversation as put forth in California is political and making a mockery of it. 😎

    Oops you dropped this All the things you promised All the love I gave, I saved Even after you left Damn it's broken The commitment you tried Every covered up lie Every shallow little theft Now it's crumbled Any thought I had Thinking it's not bad That you dropped my heart Straight to the trash 'Cause it's nothing to be fixed You're an ass and a dick And your breath smells like fart
  11. @SpeakHerTruth You're entitled to your sentiments about men. they are good for emptying the garbage and changing light bulbs. 🤣
  12. Well, Trump is apparently capitalizing on the imminent possibility of his being arrested, and is urging his followers to stage demonstrations in protest over what he considers a "witch hunt". it will be interesting to see how this plays out. I think he is going to embrace the martyr role.
  13. We have a culture. It's just very diverse but it's true the limits in that culture aren't as extreme, plus the traditions are always new. I don't take for granted the freedom we have to choose our own lifestyle. That's wonderful. But we also are free to think differently about each lifestyle, for better or worse. 🤷🏾‍♀️
  14. When he's behind bars......THEN I'll believe it. Until then, it's just sensationalism.

    You're right......lol...you're young as hell. 🤣 31 is a baby.
  16. At a certain point.....it no longer becomes about disrespecting your wife or family but disrespecting YOU PERSONALLY as a man. Regardless of what Jada wanted or felt, as a man you're not going to keep on disrespecting my wife and expect me to sit up and laugh at it like nothing is happening. No, we don't want Black men fighting on live television but some things are just a matter of principle. Chis picked the wrong nigga to fuck with that night.....lol.
  17. People actually on Chris side... can't take nothing seriously anymore. 😭😭 Chris "my white friends and white women in bed call me nigger" Rock actually has people thinking he's a "victim".
  18. That's like saying a person shouldn't be rich because it shows a lack of financial discipline.....lol. Would you tell a person who already has one house that they shouldn't buy another one or get into real estate.....because "one house is enough" and buying more than one shows lack of discipline? How about ONE CHILD is enough and having more than one child shows a lack of discipline? See where I'm going with this? Who decides what is "enough" for the next person?
  19. Thanks to Delano's video, I got to see the slap over and over again in full context Not only hasn't my opinion changed.....it's been SOLIDIFIED. The way he smacked Chris for clowning on his wife and then swaggered off the stage straightening up his suit......lol....looked like something out of a Denzel Washington movie. Will earned his respect as a "grown ass man" as far as I'm concerned. Chris can tell all the jokes and talk all the shit he wants, but Will MADE his point. Infact, when Will told him to keep his wife's name out of his mouth, Chris stood up there and said "OK, I will".....showing you the point was made. Now for him to go around on the chit'lin circuit telling crusty jokes about Jada a year after the fact.....that's kinda punkish in my opinion. He should have just shut up and moved on from the incident. Now if this beef starts to escalate.....it's all on Chris.
  20. I'm not surprised by the photo considering their generation and the fact that they are a part of the entertainment committee.😎
  21. I told you there was some sort of intelligent being or Being behind it running the show. So many Black folks just LOVE to eat up whatever White folks sit down on a plate before them. Don't even know what the hell they're eating, but if White folks present it to them....they gobble it down and think about the consequences later. Now just think about that term itself: Artificial Intelligence. That name ALONE should make you ask questions about what the hell it is and why are "they" trying so hard to push it on the world.
  22. @ProfD Actually, the smart people in the Black Community with a heart do not think about becoming rich. Only the selfish and greedy do. So, I disagree with you. There are thousands of Black people who are compassionate and want to better the lives of Black people across the country. You'll find them volunteering with the homeless, with the jobless, with the depressed or formerly incarcerated. If they are professionals, they may opt to offer legal, financial or business advice. If they are good at making meals, they bring food to community gatherings. If they are good public speakers, they do that. I abhor those who poke fun at the struggling or have made a misstep or two. It's not how many times you fall down that God looks at. It's how many times you get up.
  23. Are you sure you weren't communicating with a demon?
