Here I am, setting the record straight again, doing so, not because I think anybody cares, but rather because some may be curious as to why a 92-year- old-senior citizen wastes what little time she has left, hangin' out on an online discussion forum, engaging in verbal fisticuffs with a pioneer who has never blazed a trail anywhere except up his own butt. My answer: since the cyber space universe enables one to adopt an alter-ego, and take on a user name and lead a secret existence, quite a while ago I decided why not do this? What the heck. Might be fun. And it has been. In the real world, I am a widowed mother of 5, grandmother of 7, great grandmotherk of 8, family members of whom know very little about Nana's on-line activity; too wrapped up in their own pursuits. They just know she surfs the internet, amusing herself by engaging in various activities, and they remain clueless about the extent of my involvement on this forum since they don't come to this site. Nor do any of my associates. And, rest assured that my "Contrarian" persona is different from how I am in real life among polite company. However, because I can come here and hide behind an avatar, all bets are off and I can express myself anyway I please, Since I'm no longer a single young woman "out-to-catch", I feel no need to tread lightly and act sweet and feminine. I'm off the grid, and favorably impressing men is no longer a priority of mine. Who needs 'em? Welcome to Super Bitch land. Anyway, I say all this to say that, contrary to what some seem to think, I do not expect others to ward off my detractors or take my side. I can fend for myself. Now you know. What we don't know is how much longer I'll be around? Who cares. I don't. But until my time is up, Nana aka Contrarian will just keep poppin in and out, doin' her thing competing with others who jam the board with long self-indulgent posts full of useless information. 😴

As I mentioned in another thread, however people choose to use their time is great as long as it does not bring hurt, harm or danger to other folks. @aka Contrarian...you already know your contribution to the forum is appreciated by yours truly.😁 Whenever that time comes where we can no longer share and enjoy this virtual space...the memories will linger. In the meantime, I look forward to you popping in, hanging out and posting here too.😎

In looking at the beautiful pic of sista Lana aka MC Lyte, as Compton's Most Wanted MC Eiht would say...GEAH.🤣😎

Regardless of who is having children, the population is still growing. If a handful of men of [insert race here] are not approaching women and/or procreating for whatever reason...that doesn't account for the majority of men who are still doing their thing. Wealth building is very real. The unfortunate truth is that Black folks have been deceived and distracted away from it. Black folks have invested way too much intellectual capital in stuff like religion and expended a huge amount of physical capital in making other folks wealthy. Way too many Black folks concentrate on working a job for someone else instead of employing themselves. The real secret to white folks success is stealing from and/or making other folks work for them.😎

So in other words..... He couldn't have waited to put all of that in the State of the Union speech coming up in a month or 2? But he needed to come on primetime to address the nation and say what he's pretty much ALREADY been saying every time he talks to reporters....lol.
