  1. While hundreds and maybe over a thousand people have been unalived in Iran, POTUS OJ has decided to hold back on airstrikes against the Iranian regime. It's been reported that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) reached out to POTUS OJ asking him not to strike Iran. Iranians are still protesting. It's unclear how many of them are being executed in the streets or later. For now, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is committed to crushing opposition in order to maintain power. They have even threatened POTUS Oj. This might be the year that Iran's death to the USA chant finally awakens the giant and gets themselves put to sleep...for good.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. Millions of dollars has a different type of healing power.๐Ÿคฃ People grieve differently but time seems to heal all wounds,๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. The government will settle with her family. Those 3 children will be set for the rest of their lives.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. The claim is that POTUS Obama deported millions of folks and POTUS Biden allowed millions of folks back into the USA.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. I have nothing but the deepest respect, admiration and appreciation for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (Dr. MLK Jr.). I dare not criticize Dr. MLK Jr.s non-violent approach to the Civil Rights struggle. That was his chosen tactic. I'd imagine his religious beliefs played a part in it too. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at 39 years old accomplished more in his short lifetime than people who live twice as long. FBA/AfroAmericans and ALL Black people on the planet owe a huge debt of gratitude to him. Thanks for everything Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. The TikTok ban was a ruse. The current administration facilitated ByteDance selling part of the company.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. Not really. One man cannot take care of 56,500 women. Not even if he were given 2 lifetimes. Those dudes were insecure and selfish. Especially if it meant forcing other men to become eunuchs. Now, if a man was naturally missing a part...no problem. Work him like a donkey.๐Ÿคฃ Titles are easy to bestow and take away. The owner remains the most powerful if/until overthrown. A benevolent dictator doesn't have to worry about such things. That might work under a benevolent dictator. However, it only takes 1 or 2 to form a coup and want to overthrow an unrighteous owner.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Even among Latino immigrants, the darker folks (brown and Black) are being deported more than blancos.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. The statisticians will compile some numbers when the dust settles and smoke clears. Good luck fact checking.๐Ÿ˜ As DJ Khaled song All I Do is Win said...and they stay there. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. Take a deep breath and walk with me here.๐Ÿ˜ Semantics aside, what is the difference between a *woman king* and a masculine gay dude? Hopefully, you're not looking at it from the angle that *masculine gay dudes* won't be chasing after 56,500 women around.๐Ÿคฃ I did type that a woman king and her army would control the island. I was referring to them whatever form of security or protection you would expect from those masculine gay dudes. We already had a whole thread covering your disdain for that whole situation. That's the reason I mentioned it here. Comedic source material.๐Ÿ˜ Woman king as a Juxtaposition to masculine gay dudes.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. The obvious reason is because white folks own the porn industry. More importantly, the *rules* for what can and cannot be said and done in a porn movie are different from movies rated R or below. Still, Black actors can refuse to play roles for whatever reason. They don't have to be in white porn movies. Produce their own. Herein lies the biggest hurdle or challenge for Black folks..,.dependence on white folks for every crumb of their daily bread. Whenever Black folks decide to own sh8t i.e. ownership...we can make rules and call shots. Otherwise, as an employee i.e. working for someone else is always subject to their rules and regulations. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Regardless of the industry, people can set boundaries before they sign a contract. For example, there are certain things Denzel Washington will not do in his movies. The producers and directors have to respect it. Even in a porn movie, if Black folks do not want to mistreated or disrespected, they have to make that case for themselves. Otherwise, morality is a non-issue when someone decides to work in the porn or prostitution industry.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. Clearly Tariq does not share your affinity for non-FBA/AfroAmericans. Same goes for the other podcasters. The onus is really on those labelled as tethers to come to the table and rewrite the narrative. Same goes for FBA/AfroAmericans who bootlick and shill. If non-FBA/AfroAmericans are not on some sellout, bootlick or shill sh8t...they need to state that case. The reality is that many tether suspects do cozy up to white supremacy. They will disrespect FBA/AfroAmericans in order to carry favor with white folks. Just as I do here on the forum, I call balls and strikes when it comes to ALL Black folks. I see all sides of the issue(s).๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. There would be no need for those dudes if you accepted a Woman King and her army on your island.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. I remember when Iman was all the rage. Time flies. Looks like she's keeping herself up very well.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. Do not be surprised if your island ends up with 57,000 people on it like Greenland.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Right. There's no shortage of blended together either personally and/or doing business. An individual or a group only becomes an enemy either when they undermine and/or bring hurt, harm or danger to others. Otherwise, as NF Jr. instructed, no contact is best if/when the alternative leads to an argument and/or a negative physical confrontation. There's definitely an angle to his hustle. He knows how to create content and feed his base.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. It wil interesting to see how many people actually end up leaving the US voluntarily of involuntarily over the next couple years. They like to claim POTUS Obama quietly got millions of people up outta here on his watch.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. I've heard of Miss Black America but I have no idea of what she actually does.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. Seems Junior M.A.F.I.A. addressed this issue 30 years ago.... In one way or another, s8x has alway sold well. Get it.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. It was never a secret. Some folks may be surprised by how swiftly their master plan is being executed.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. AI is being created to do things humans are either too slow or incapable of doing efficiently and quickly. AI is designed to replace humans wherever feasible. Producing jobs cost money. That's not the way capitalism works. That's where capitalism and free market comes into to play. Enterprising folks are allowed to make money first. The government makes rules and regulations to reign in capitalists and provides essential services for people who cannot afford it for one reason or another. The government has never really been in the business of creating industrial jobs. It leaves that up to capitalists within the free market system.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. The billionaires ahead of the technology will make more money using it in place of human labor. As an engineer, you already know this but the already wealthy will build data centers and automate with robots. Those data centers will be responsible for everything from cloud-based computing to energy management and the high demands of moving digital currency. Only a handful of high-tech skilled humans will be required to keep the robots working properly. It will be like a farmer running his own operation with a laptop as machines do all of the harvesting. There are coal mines that are being run by machines. No humans in the most dangerous parts of the mine. The machines can work 24/7/365 in the most unsafe work environment and conditions. They do not call in sick or take smoke breaks or steal time to chill. ๐Ÿ˜ Thankfully, there are people who will have to build the data centers and maintain the facilities. Blue-collar workers will be in higher demand. White-collar works in the form of office folks and tiered management will disappear. A whole lot of non-technical college degrees will be worthless. The question is how long the industry that is higher-education will continue to generate lots of money churning out unemployed workers.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. This is the rationalization that will enable AI to displace millions of people in the workforce. The only people exempt from being unemployed as a result of AI are those who work in trades i.e. blue-collar workers. For example, a plumber or an electrician will always have a job. AI will turn white-collar workers into contractors and mercenaries. Let the hunger games begin.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. There are whole institutions named and defined by race. It will take a very long time to tear down and/or rename them. Even so, I believe people will always see and treat others a certain way based on their race.๐Ÿ˜Ž
