  1. Correct. DEI just like Affirmative Action have benefitted other minorities moreso mainly white women.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. The majority of Black folks who believe in those texts do not recognize any of that as it relates to UAP/UFO/ET. Yet, that technology is definitely being used as a form of counter-surveillance. We don't need fuzzy cell phone camera pictures and infra-red images when there are high powered satellites and telescopes our in the universe constantly recording any movements among the stars.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. From what I see and where I sit, the post-Holocaust Jews who run around labeling Black folks antisemitic aren't putting that same energy and smoke on wealthy white men. The ADL and Jonathan Greenblatt are not attacking wealthy white folks whenever they display antisemitism.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. Well, that's impossible because there is such thing as a perfect person. The real reason Black folks do not follow the teaching of Malcolm X or Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. either is because only a small minority of Black folks actually listened to and/or believed in those men when they were relevant. During the 1960s, many Black folks felt Malcolm X and Rev. Dr. MLK Jr. were troublemakers and rabble-rousers and wasting their time. Of course, those same Black people took advantage of the Civil Rights Act and Affirmative Action. Fast forward to the 1990s, it was the same thing with folks like Minister Louis Farrakhan and Khalid Muhammad. They galvanized a couple hundred thousand Black folks out of millions. Not enough to overthrow the system of racism white supremacy. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. I don't believe the folks who voted for POTUS OJ will be *hurt* significantly enough to protest his actions. Over 900 rallies, the man told his voters exactly what he was going to do if re-elected. Therefore, they should not be surprised. I Just hope this return to the 1950s blows up in their faces like a trick cigar.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Teachers are imperfect people who serve as vessels of knowledge and enlightenment. The shortcomings of man does not invalidate their teachings or messages. If I teach you how to make a million dollars and it comes to fruition but I'm a womanizer and a murderer, I doubt that you would stop making money.๐Ÿ˜ Follow and apply the knowledge from lessons learned. No need to follow the man.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. OK. I haven't seen any ancient proof of UAP/UFO/ET. In fact, if it existed, seems there would be less mysterious today. Right. Satellites operate beyond territorial airspace but can capture high resolution images on the ground like Google Earth. Satellites and high-powered telescopes is another reason there are many non-believers in UAP/UFO/ET phenomena.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Addressing black-owmeed businesses aspect of multilog, I skipped through the corner. Ironically, I just read another article regarding DeepSeek, OpenAI, Nvidia, etc. Anyway, I'm not surprised if the Chinese could upstart DeepSeek with $5.6 million versus the $20 billion US investment in OpenAI and Anthropic. The US is built on capitalism and greed. Everything costs more to produce in the US as people artificially enrich themselves. What remains to be seen is if DeepSeek will be allowed to overtake OpenAI in the market. I wouldn't bet on it.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Right. It's fairly easy to create a minority group in America. Let a few snaggle mouf folks establish the National Association of Missing Front Tooth NAMFT). It wouldn't take too long before NAMFT gets contracts for all types of toothpaste and dental products, TV commercials, movies, etc.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. Good luck with any of it all things considered. We're having a hard time getting answers, evidence and proof. Our ancestors didn't feel obligated to leave us with any clues about these phenomena either. American satellites are just as effective in spying on other countries. I think we use drones too. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. We may never know. The evidence and proof are not being leaked. IMO, we cannot spend too much time on that which we do not know. Especially since our time on the planet is finite. Life is too short to stress or sweat that over which we have little or no control. However, if there is a hill someone is willing to die upon...there's no reason to stop them. American national security seems to be global considering its investment in strategic outposts.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Most of us don't know what they were up to with the drones. Don't know for sure. In addition to protection against enemies foreign and domestic, eliminating any threats of mass panic or paranoia is an objective of national security too. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. Over the past century, many folks have been educated to do white collar jobs and service industry work. Skilled trades have been heavily infiltrated by non-Black immigrants who are not unionized. Although America has outsourced a lot of work to other countries, I believe there will be a demand for skilled tradespeople to build things here. Prior to integration, Black folks had to build their own businesses. Integration made it easier for them to destroy and discourage Black businesses. That's interesting because your best of chance of making a billion dollars is in the USA. IOW, as a black person, there's nowhere else you could go on this planet and make a billion dollars as a non-native. Black folks know this but have been conditioned to accept it and not practice and take advantage among themselves on a grand scale.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. Many of us already knew officialdom was lying about the drones. We knew it wasn't adversaries or UAP/UFO/ET. Officialdom always lies especially when it comes to military exercises and programs that are classified as top secret or higher. Of course, they are not going to release any more information for reasons of national security.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. i believe the drones are out there as usual 1) military testing new technology and 2) spying on people.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. Excellent read. As much as we can debate that race is a social construct, there is no denying that is pervasive aspect of society. In maintaining the system of racism white supremacy, without exception, white folks are winning the race. Black folks could never rely or depend on the white hand which belongs to someone who has always been two-faced. Malcolm X taught us not to trust white folks back in the 1960s. But, like so much of our history and lessons, we have failed to heed the messages. Unfortunately, it often takes the worst of conditions and/or the most horrible circumstances or a catastrophic event to wake people up and/or motivate them to take care of themselves. Until civilization totally collapses, it's not too late for Black folks to course correct. White folks already have a 500-year head start. We cannot depend on the benevolence of white folks; neither their people nor their political parties and institutions. The harshest reality is that there are plenty self-serving Black folks among us who could not care any less about our race. Now is the time for Black folks to get on code; roll up their sleeves and get busy doing for ourselves in order to enrich and protect our own interests.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Sure. There are plenty groups that bond beyond color and gender...LGBTQIA+, people with disabilities, political parties, social clubs, etc.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. Until there is an assassination or a civil war, I don't believe the white folks are really divided. Along similar lines, despite the lies, saber-rattling and bluster, nothing sticks and nobody really comes against him. Look at how the GOP has closed ranks. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/leavitt-reveals-nj-drones-authorized-faa-white-house/story?id=118187426 The government has just admitted the drones flying around were authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). @frankster, I understand this could be the officialdom response to hide the *truth*. I always felt the gov't was aware of the drones and most likely responsible for them too.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. POTUS OJ 2.0 has nothing to lose in his 2nd term. Right now, he's unable to run for re-election. However, there is a congressman who's working on legislation that would allow only POTUS OJ to run n for a 3rd term. Not POTUS Obama. There are some things POTUS OJ could do for AfroAmericans that would solidify the GOP strong-hold on the American government for the next 50 years. I'm fairly certain that POTUS OJ isn't remotely interested in cementing his legacy by helping Black folks. But, POTUS OJ could possibly unify white folks around nationalism and supremacy. That could place him in a favorable spot in history.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. On average, AfroAmerican churches collect about $11 billion dollars per year. It would be helpful to know how and where they are investing it.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. Black-owned businesses within the entrainment industry have greatest growth potential. For many decades, especially among AfroAmericans, education has promoted ahead of imagination, creativity and risk-taking which are required when it comes to entrepreneurship. IMO, Black folks aren't groomed hard enough when it comes to 1) learning skilled trades and 2) building businesses. I believe failure in those areas will have severe consequences in the future of Black folks. There will always be a need to construct buildings, run electrical wiring, install plumbing, heating and air conditioning or grow a farm full of food and produce. After the wildfires in California, contractors are going to make a sh8t ton of money rebuilding there. I doubt Black folks will get 1% of the contracts. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. My point was not that a Black person should buy ByteDance (TikTok). The point was there's no singular Black person in America who can afford to buy TikTok. Otherwise, I wholeheartedly believe Black folks should be investing in and building their own economic infrastructure from top to bottom. Jiust like Chinese people do.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Right. Sh8t happens. By any means necessary, one has to respond to and deal with that perpetrator/oppressor in order to keep it from happening again. Otherwise, a failure to address means being a victim (social, psychological and physical) into perpetuity. Ignorance seems to be a blessing and a curse dependent upon how one chooses to live and/or deal with life.๐Ÿ˜ I know *smart* people who are well off and miserable as h8ll for one reason or another. OTOH, I know *ignorant* folks who don't know a lot or have much. Yet, they don't seem to have a care in the world and appear to be as happy as clams.๐Ÿคฃ As the saying goes, it takes all kinds to make the world go round.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. Not me. Hopefully, we'll be able to cross that bridge in our lifetime. Victimhood is one of the pillars of oppression. One must 1) shed the victim mentality and 2) fight to reclaim history, build infrastructure and 3) liberate from real or perceived oppression. Denial of the Holocaust will never be accepted. The debt will continue to be paid as well. Sure. Knowledge whether lost or hidden doesn't matter much if people aren't going to use it anyway.๐Ÿ˜Ž
