  1. Not officially released but similar images of UAPs/UFOs have been floating around since the early days of tabloids. Like Big Foot, the UAF/UFO thing subsided in the early 2000s. It seems to have resurfaced when the political folks need a good distraction from their other BS. Not really considering the pics look similar to old tabloid magazines.๐Ÿ˜ Again, it's interesting that one country (USA) has a monopoly on UAPs/UFOs. There's a few words for it too but one comes to mind...Hollywood.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. The USA is my birthplace & homeland. However, I'm not asking other Black folks to embrace the USA as their homeland. I would encourage Black folks who h8te the USA for whatever reason to either 1) fight to make it better or 2 ) move elsewhere. Thr gaslighting is global. The point of this thread is pointing out the ridiculousness of adversarial relationship between USA-China. Sure. They all have access to enough information & technology to know the truth. The fundamental question remains what are they doing to force change. If being poor means accepting the status quo, then the solution must be to remain in the holding pattern of making the best of life under the given conditions & circumstances. Considering that people continue procreating & bringing more lives into a poor existence suggests that being poor isn't too bad. Humans have been dominating each other in one way or another for a very long time. It's like a sport.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. Yep. Steph's dad, Dale Curry, played professional basketball too. He's often in the stands cheering for his son.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. Not from the 1940a but the pictures & videos look similar to that which has already been released. These pics & videos aren't 100 years old. The public has no way of verifying &/or proving any of it. That burden still lies with officialdom.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. The Pentagon has released more files: Hopefully, this will bring some relief to folks who believe in UAPs/UFOs. I still believe the US military knows exactly what's going on in these photographs.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Excellent video breaking down who benefits from the various types of monetization on social media platforms. Black folks should definitely watch & take heed of it. Hopefully, as most things in life move in a circle, people will shut off their computers & cell phones & get back to socializing among each other in various types of establishments. For example, listening to music sounds much better in a venue i.e. theater, bar, lounge, restaurant, etc., with musicians playing instruments. Watching videos online doesn't provide the same vibe, energy &/or experience as in person.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. Free time or leisure time is nice to have especially if one has all of their survival needs met. The benefit of living in a highly industrialized country affords its citizens such luxuries.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Gotcha. I lump those former government officials & military personnel into the same boat because their testimonies do not produce anything tangible & they are using the same grainy videos that show us absolutely nothing. The government already knows those UAPs are military aircraft being tested. Of course, they are not going tell the American people nor their adversaries what they are doing with that technology. Interestingly, only a handful of countries have space programs &/or deal with UFO/UAP/extraterrestrial theories. For the most part, Black folks are not trying to send folks to the moon or trying to colonize Mars nor are we claiming UFOS & aliens.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Files have existed since the Warren Commission & FBI under Hoover. Good luck working with blank, er, heavily redacted files from the 1960s.๐Ÿ˜ Nevermind that if anyone was implicated in those files they are no longer alive.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. A heavily redacted file might as well be a blank sheet of paper. I wouldn't consider it disclosure.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. Mainly inhabited by people who have too much free time on their hands &/or some other mental capacity to dwell in it.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Right. We're fundamentally on the same page.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฟ Making sure the lurkers understand the games world leaders try to play on us.๐Ÿ˜ As the longest running empire, China is definitely more than a source of cheap labor beyond the USA. China is making moves around the globe especially in Africa. This week, China & Russia are having a meeting similar to last week with the Americans. I'm willing to bet Xi Jinping & Vlady Putin are having a nice chuckle at the expense of POTUS OJ.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. I'm not marginalizing China's accomplishments in providing for its citizens. This is what I'm pointing out. The USA creates boogeymen to keep its people dazed & confused about its adversaries. The real adversaries which the USA agitated are countries that resist colonization & imperialism & hate Israel.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. POTUS OJ has such a stranglehold on the GOP that he was able to primary Kentucky congressman Thomas Massie. Despite that Rep. Massie voted with POTUS OJ 9 outta 10 times..the fact that he insisted on releasing the Epstein files & opposed the war in Iran drew the ire of the current administration. In retaliation, the GOP at the behest of POTUS OJ poured $30 million dollars into Rep. Massie's opponent Ed Gallrein. The latter won. In other news, in POTUS OJ dropping his $10 billion dollar lawsuit against the IRS, the Department of Justice has created a $1.7 billion dollar fund to provide legal help to conservatives they feel were wrongly prosecuted. The January 6th folks could benefit from this slush fund. Same goes for any MAGA folks who might find themselves in trouble. The blatant grift & reallocation of funds into the coffers of POTUS OJ is unbelievable. White supremacy is flexing big time on the watch of this dude.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. Heavily redacted information that doesn't reveal anything reads like a zero sum gain for the public.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. I don't believe the American people learned anything new from anything released into the public domain. IOW, we still do not know the full truth of the assassinations of MLK Jr. & JFK.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. Right. China is not just cheap US labor force. They also steal, er, reappropriate products, goods & technology to sell cheaply to other countries around the globe. They reverse-engineer quite a bit. Back in the 1970s, the US started exporting the manufacturing jobs American workers relied on for middle-class status. IMO, the evaporation of blue-collar jobs here in America disenfranchised a lot of people. Now, they're talking about bringing trades back. If Chinese people & Asians in general were truly smarter than Americans & everyone else, it would stand to reason that their countries would be the global super-powers leading in innovation & technology. My point isn't too minimize China. It is to point out the obvious gaslighting US leaders do to keep Americans dazed & confused into believing China is an adversary. China is not a threat especially as long as money is flowing into their country from its biggest employer & customer...USA.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. Same guy takes off his tinfoil hat & goes to Capitol Hill testifying before Congress that he's seen somerhing &/or he knows the government is hiding information. Yet, he can never provide proof or evidence. Just words.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/lawmakers-china-owned-us-farmland/ 40 million acres of US farmland is owned by foreign entities. It only amounts to about 2% of the farmland available. Chinese investors own about 229,000 thousand acres of farmland here in the USA which is only 0.5% of the 2% mentioned above. Nearly a quarter-million acres is a significant amount of land owned by a supposed adversary. I doubt that most people would allow their enemy to own as much as a broom closet in their home.๐Ÿ˜ Again, just another example of the BS whenever the US declares China as a threat.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. Officialdom claims they are going to release the JFK & MLK files too. There's a pattern here.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. I didn't read that into what I actually wrote. I'm questioning how China can be considered an enemy or boogeyman given their labor force producing a huge amount of products & the Chinese presence in the USA.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. The amount of money Political Action Committees (PACs) are spending to put folks in office is ridiculous. If Black candidates are beholden to a PAC on either side, Democrat or Republican, their marching orders are already set. Candidates funded through grassroot efforts & regular campaign donations have an uphill climb. That's why Independents are rare. Campaign finance reform is a joke. So, the 2-horse race between Democrats & Republicans remains status quo. Just a matter of selected candidates out-fundraising each other. Once the politicians get to Capitol Hill, they go about the business of enforcing the agenda of & enriching the folks who sent them.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. Then, we're still at conspiracy theories & conjecture. No different from the JFK & MLK files.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. China has been the blue-collar labor force for the United States of America (USA) for several decades now. Every person living in the USA has at least 5 things that were made in China.๐Ÿคฃ Also, there's at least 5 million Chinese people living in the USA. Yet, the US government wants the American people to believe China is a threat. If China wanted to destroy America it would be very easy to do wirhout firing a single shot. Everything from contaminated clothing & products to a little something extra in egg rolls & Chinese food would kill millions of Americans.๐Ÿคฃ First, it was the nuclear arms race that made Russia a boogeyman. China has become one too mainly because it owns a huge amount of US debt. White people in America make up enemies to justify the military & owning a bunch of guns. If American white folks would stop creating enemies through colonization, imperialism & racism, etc., they would have nothing to fear.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. Again, there's no verifiable proof those people went missing or died because of what they may have known about strange phenomena, aliens or UFO/UAP files.๐Ÿ˜Ž
