  1. Agreed. I believe Russia could've annihilated Ukraine a long time ago without using nukes. Wars and conflicts are good for business.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. It would be cool to *know* where we are in the present 25k year cycle. Archaeologists have not dug up and/or revealed any advanced technology from the past. No vehicles, TVs, computers or appliances. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  3. Right. Every now and then, war is for a worthy cause...pursuing life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Russia is slapping Ukraine around like a trick who tried to side with another pimp.๐Ÿคฃ Russia under Putin doesn't want NATO in his backyard. He's also trying to resurrect ths band (USSR).๐Ÿ˜Ž
  4. That is why I believe the political parties are two sides of the same coin. They have one common objective which is maintaining the system.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Now, I have to ask the question and hopefully it won't raise the lack of intelligence flag.๐Ÿคฃ If our ancestors were so advanced in mathematics, medicine, science and philosophy, etc., it begs the questions of when, where and how did many of our people digress into living in compromised shelters on undeveloped land and being exploited by foreigners in Africa. I refuse to believe white folks sprinkled some kind of fairy dust on our people to zap their intelligence as bestowed upon them by the Supreme Being.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. The Democratic establishment might support him running for higher office as a result of his willingness to stunt for another group of people. That's exactly why FBA/AfroAmericans aren't paying attention to this type of sh8t. It makes no sense to put on the cape for people who can't stand us anyway.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. The media immediately reports *news* that it deems important enough to cover right away. Spain losing power doesn't warrant immediate coverage to the white media. The LA wildfires were covered 24/7 until the last ember was extinguished. Lot of property and money went up in smoke.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. It is a kind gesture and recognition for the manufactured holidays. Father's Day being the after-thought holiday.๐Ÿคฃ Technically, every human being has a *father*/donor or they would not exist.๐Ÿ˜ For one reason or several, every child does not have the benefit of a *daddy* i.e. a man who raises and teaches them. It makes sense for people to celebrate the maternal and paternal figures who had the most impact on their lives even if it's the same person rolled up in one. There are grandparents, other relatives and friends who take on parental responsibilities for children they didn't bear.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Right. Reads like they are killing each other and dying for *nothing*.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  10. In the latest news, POTUS OJ may be getting a plane worth $400 million dollars from Qatar. That would be a violation of all type of ethics yet fellow politicians nor American citizens seem to be outraged about it. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. I'm not one to tell another person what to do with their coins but do not bet on Diddy getting stretched out.๐Ÿ˜ I believe the trial will end up with a hung jury or acquittal. The whole exercise is intended to knock Diddy down a few pegs because he p8ssed off the *wrong* folks. A man worth almost $500 million dollars has no reason to run a s8x trafficking ring. It doesn't make sense.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  12. Sista @Mel Hopkins, hope you also had a wonderful Mother's Day all things considered.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  13. https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/09/us/new-jersey-mayor-arrested-at-ice-detention-center Newark mayor Ras Baraka got himself arrested while demanding access to a local detention center being used to house illegal immigrants. In this case of n8gglet sh8t, this dude choose to go to jail not for advocating reparations but instead, he chose to carry water for the Democratic party. Those same bootlicks and shills stomping for non-Black folks will be unceremoniously ignored by their political party when the dust settles. Even if these Black mayors like Adams & Baraka aspire to higher office, they still have to prove they can tow the party line.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  14. https://apnews.com/live/sean-diddy-combs-sex-trafficking-trial-5-12-2025 The Diddy trial is happening. A jury has been seated. It will be interesting to see if prosecutors can make a s8x trafficking case stick and put Diddy away for years. I don't believe Diddy will be found guilty. His freaky bizness will be put out in the street though. He might have a harder time picking up dates once he's acquitted. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  15. Like every other manufactured holiday, it's a Hallmark money grab. Plenty other businesses get paid including florists, restaurants, department stores, etc. Nope. Most people recognize their mother throughout the year. That being written, it's cool to set aside a special day to recognize mothers. Let them kick back, relax and be showered with love, gifts and food. That statement does sum up a lot. It could end most conversations too.๐Ÿคฃ However, we wouldn't have much left to discuss once that trump card is played....it is what is. The flip side, it ain't what it ain't. ๐Ÿ˜ @aka Contrarian, looks like you had a happy Mother's Day. I certainly hope so.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  16. It really depends on the news source and/or outlet. There's no shortage of them nowadays. One has to watch several news channels and read multiple publications to get the *real truth*. I h8te when folks tell me about something they heard on the Gram, FB or TikTok as if that sh8t is real news.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  17. @Pioneer1, per the definition cited above, "groups that humans are often divided into..." is the reason many people refer to race as a social construct. Early social scientists assigned race on the following basic skin colors...white, black, red, yellow and brown. Other than Black or white, most folks don't refer to themselves by their skin color i.e. race.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  18. POTUS OJ has a criminal record. He's not afraid of the court. He'll keep signing executive oders regardless of how it lines up with the Constitution. Neither congress nor the judicial branch seems overly interested in putting a stop to the clown car barreling around town.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  19. Happy Mother's Day to the women who put in work raising their offspring directly and indirectly and also women who adopt and raise childen too.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  20. Those high ranking officers would have to take matters into their own hands and form a coup to take down POTUS OJ. They're not that interested in doing it. The general didn't take action while he was in the Pentagon or since he left the building. If it was possible, Gen. Milley could have rounded up a tactical unit and tried to take POTUS OJ down.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. The military doesn't run around putting hands on enemies foreign or domestic. They follow orders to do so. Guess who gives those orders with support from Congress. They've retreated back into the woods to target practice and wait for the next opportunity to defend and protect white nationalism.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  22. Like a photo-op.๐Ÿคฃ Ask them what they're fighting and dying for and wait for the *dumb* answers. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  23. POTUS OJ is Clown, er, Commander-in-Chief. Unless SECDEF and/or military goes rogue or POTUS OJ becomes a domestic enemy, there's nothing the military can do about his actions.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  24. Lets wait and see if Pope Leo XIV self-identifies as a Black man. I seriously doubt that he will.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  25. Today, India and Pakistan have agreed to a cease-fire. More powerful nations must have told them to knock that sh8t off and go to their separate rooms.๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
