  1. The current wedge being forced between Democrats is the moderate versus the Democratic Socialists or America (DSA). New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has been made the poster of the DSA movement. Regular Democrats want social programs that work within the system of capitalism. This Democratic approach of being the foil orlf Republicans has resulted in mostly inertia as there is still no universal healthcare or affordable housing or childcare. The DSA is being labelled the radical wing of the party with an agenda to burn down the system of capitalism & dismantle government & other institutions. Of course, the solution to taking care of the American people especially the less fortunate lies somewhere in the middle. The USA has enough capacity to support both capitalism & provide universal healthcare. in order to get there, wealthy people have to take less. Nobody should be a billionaire or trillionaire anyway.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. He distanced himself from Puffy long before he became broke & passed away.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. I agree with brotha @frankster here. Too man Black folks look up to whites. It's not an intellectual deficiency. Propaganda, fear & ignorance are a few reasons. Africans could be more self-sufficient if greed & corruption among their own country-men wasn't so rampant. Along with admiring white folks, that willingness among Black folks to sell-out is a huge problem.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. My position remains tenable. The Ufology world has not produced any concrete proof, facts or evidence that I'm willing to change my mind. Still waiting for that UFO crash landing a Wal-Mart parking lot on a busy day & people pulling bodies out of it.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Right. Would only support the wrong-doers/liability to extent of damage control. Keep potential enemies close.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Brotha @frankster ...you're certainly entitled to think &/or believe whatever you want along with the rest of it. Makes for more dialog.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. Agreed. I guess the b8ssy brigade will have to be round up & quarantined.๐Ÿคฃ The religious types who are off code will have to be round up & quarantined too.๐Ÿ˜ That's great but the Black tribes that aren't being supported could be a liability to unity.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. We have to consider the needs of Black women & Black children too. Black men having more access to money & s8x isn't going to unite Black people.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Black people aren't a monolith. The various tribes have to be rounded up & represented before we can even get into offering tangible benefits to them.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. Someone can get a bag of money in a divorce if they can prove adultery. That trial period may not be long enough to get bored with a person &/or want to replace them.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. Nobody could defend Puffy's lifestyle & actions & choices he made. They knew how he got down. No need to perjure themselves if questions were asked. Ma$e distanced himself from Puffy a long time ago. That's probably one of the reasons he became a minister at one point.๐Ÿ˜ Word on the curb is Mary J. Blige partied early in her career. No need to possiblyto bring up her past. People lay low when they know there is some truth in the matter. Black folks give it to prayer.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Puffy enriched a few Black people who were around him too.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. Right. The vows aren't legally binding. But if someone commits adultery, they're gonna have to pay for it.๐Ÿคฃ I'm gladna court cannot uphold &/or enforce that foolishness. IMO, It is silly to mandate to honor, obey & cherish another person. Heterosexual humans go through way too mamy changes just to f8ck. Not when it comes to marriage. People need to be more realistic in their expectations of a fellow flawed person.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. Sure. Always gotta pay it forward especially to younger folks who are willing to learn. IMO, death is the end of dealing with this life as we know it & the beginning of becoming a memory to loved ones.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. I haven't drawn a line when it comes to officialdom. I just don't believe in such things because I don't have evidence, facts or proof of its existence. Otherwise, I don't begrudge those who believe in Gods or Santa Claus or ET or CZ.๐Ÿ˜Ž
