Maybe that's why white folks are trying to incentivize their own to have more babies. Keep their numbers up and white privileges intact. White folks have a problem with abortion as a form of birth control and a decreasing population among themselves. Irresponsible women and men could stop procreating. Problem solved. Not to worry....the universe has a way of eliminating the least productive human beings. 😎

I doubt that POTUS OJ generated the AI-image himself. But, he either authorized or posted it on his truth social account.😎

Free information is readily available. It does not have to be shared. The goats can get it. It is really up to the individual and whether or not they will seek and consume the information that is most helpful to them. Forcing information on people is pointless. Make it readily available. Let the individual decide whether they want to fail or succeed.😎

The current administration is floating the idea of offering women $5,000 to have children. Remains to be seen if that cash offer applies to non-white women though.🤣😎

That could be a viable strategy if Democrats could shut up and get out their own way. Instead, the Dems are yelling at clouds, flailing around and crashing out. Metaphorically, let the clown car run over a cliff and explode with no survivors. Best shot at maintaining the pseudo-Democracy the US claims.😎

Absolutely not. In fact, the current administration is aggressively pursuing a white nationalist programme. IMO, racism and prejudice will be more clearly defined in the US. It's going to be interesting to see how non-white folks deal with white folks closing ranks and excluding others. Many groups of people already have cultural ties that bind them. They have been building structures to help each other. IMO, most AfroAmerican tribes do not have an infrastructure of self-sufficiency in place to weather the storm if/when white folks pull the rug from underneath them.😎

Women cannot teach a male how to be a man. Just to be clear...there's a difference between protecting a woman from hurt, harm or danger and fighting another man *over* her. Otherwise, an alpha-male doesn't have to fight another dude to win over a woman. He's got too many choices to pick from in women.😎

Humans are born into conditions created by their fellow beings. That goes for everything good and bad in the world. It only takes human benevolence to change a bad condition(s). Greed and hatred prevents it. Otherwise, people can be lifted out of poverty and despair and every other condition in the blink of an eye. Doing so would be the work of a higher power.😎

POTUS OJ never one to miss an opportunity to spin up the media posed this picture to his social media account.🤣😎

The NFL, NBA and music industry produce a lot more Black millionaires than Ben Crump winning a few cases.😎

Having to *explain* the music you dig is the 1st sign of a disconnect. Surely, there are some folks who have an appreciation for music outside their generation. For the most part, people gravitate towards music on which they grew up as it is the soundtrack of their lives. Autotune was intended to be a studio tool used to fix *bad* notes. Artist T-Pain used it to enhance his voice. Copycats emerged. That's one of the gifts only AfroAmericans can bring to the table. We make lemonade out of lemons. We add *flavor* to the bland. Drum machines and samplers were invented as studio tools. Black folks built Hip-Hop on it. Blue-eyed Soul was around long before the aforementioned artists. White folks have always taken Black music and put their own spin on it. Sadly, we never codified it to the point of ownership. White folks have never really cared about that because they always make the most money in the long run.😎

Always enjoy the back and forth between @frankster and @Pioneer1.😁 IMO, white folks have a monopoly on violence as evidenced by their control of the planet. Sure, Black folks hurt, harm and kill each other in all manners of violence from drive-by shootings, executions, coups, genocides, etc. To date, no Black country has emerged as a super power or threat to racism white supremacy. to that end, Black folks aren't nearly as violent as white folks who have either directly or indirectly killed 100s of millions of people within the past 500 years and counting. The Ukraine-Russia conflict has cost over a million lives within a 3 year period. Black folks killings combined throughout the planet pale in comparison.😎

Historically, from its Irish origins, Shannon is a girl's name. But, it has been used as a gender-neutral name for more than 100 years.😎

No comparison. Different times. IMO, music doesn't have the same meaning and social impact to current and future generations. Technology has been a blessing and curse to Black music since the 1980s. Drum machines, sequencers and samplers killed Black bands. The 1990s consisted mainly of singing groups, solo artists and rappers. Music *producers* controlled the music. No Black bands using real musicians though. Mint Condition was the last self-contained Black band standing through the 1990s and into 2000s. Tools like Autotune and other software programs have lowered the barrier of entry into the music-making process. Folks don't have to be knowledgeable about music or know how to *sing* in order to produce music. As a result, current music lacks the artistry in songwriting, music production, arrangement, live musicianship and everything else; most importantly, the social environment that served as the cocoon for the music of yesteryear. There's no shortage of talented artists snd musicians running around foday. The difference lies in how they see the world and reflect it in their music. From a generational perspective, the current and future generations don't *need* what we had in the past. No different from how our generation didn't embrace or carry forward all of the music that preceded us. In fact, we thought our music was *better*. As a musician, I see it as a part of the same cycle that has been ongoing since the dawn of recorded music.😎

Exactly. He's not that old but his physical and infirmity and the way he moves makes him look weaker. Revn Barber is not a Civill Rights icon or leader. He rose up through the Poor People's Campaign. IMO, Attorney Ben Crump cannot be viewed as a leader until he starts a movement. Winning court cases to enrich litigants and himself doesn't qualify as leadership. Of course, brotha Ben would have to work on that speech impediment before he can command attention with his mouth-piece. Black *leaders* have been propped up since the assassination of our most iconic. The systen of racism white supremacy has anesthetized Black folks especially through the Democratic party into believing we don't need real Black leadership.😎

IMO, old, crippled dudes like Rev. William Barber and Rep. Al Green do not represent or reflect Black manhood. These dudes are Civil Rights relics either praying to deaf ears and/or yelling at clouds. Younger Black folks aren't really listening to them. They are about as relevant as two old n8gglets sitting in lawm chairs, sipping sweet tea and talking about how things used to be back in the days when they were rolling with real cats like the honorable Minister Malcolm X and Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.🤣 The Congressmen should have made Rev. Barber aware of the laws at the Capitol. They certainly weren't out there getting arrested with him.🤣 The Democratic party and its agents are crashing out on dumb sh8t. They're so clueless right now that it's pathetic. The current administration occupants of a clown car gets a hearty laugh every day at the expense of the Democrats. The clown car is just speeding down the highway grinning and smiling as they recklessly experiment with pulling the US into fascism. 😎

A report for the month of April claims 177,000 new jobs. Supposedly, gasoline is selling for $1.98/gallon somewhere. Not anywhere I travel. This ties back to @Pioneer1's distrust of statistics.🤣😎

IMO, there will be no assassination or coup attempts against them because the majority of white folks including those who didn't vote for him are down with POTUS OJ's programme.😎

Sure. POTUS OJ could be considered a domestic enemy for repeatedly violating the Constitution. However, in order for POTUS OJ to ignore the Constitution and laws of the land, other folks have fo be cooperative an/or complicit too. Congress isn't pushing back against anything POTUS OJ conjures up. They're allowing the executive branch to do whatever it wants. SCOTUS voted 9-0 on a ruling and the current administration has totally ignored it. No contempt or impeachment. Both the legislative and judicial branches of government seem to be content experimenting with fascism here in the US. The Secretary of Defense SECDEF) is appointed by POTUS. Good luck with SECDEF giving military an order to take POTUS down. Not gonna happen. These are the same people mobilizing military assets to help with border security. Department of Homeland Security should be able to handle it since fewer folks are trying to cross the border. 77 million people voted for the jackazz that is POTUS OJ and his clown car filled with sycophants. Those of us who voted against this foolishness can only sit back and watch the sh8tshow.😎

They said it was bad luck to lay a hat on the bed. But, they'd knock your head off if a hat was placed on the table.🤣😎

He's not a Deity.😁 I doubt that most followers think about how close their leader is to the Supreme Being. I hope every believer knows their leader is flesh and bones just like themselves...a human being. The Pope has been protected by the Swiss Guard for 5 centuries. The last assassination attempt was against Pope John II back in 1981. The Vatican has billions of dollars. The Pope is a high vaiue asset.😎

IMO, there are no real enemies foreign or domestic. It's a distraction to generate more money. It doesn't make sense to consider China a major threat when they are the US labor force responsible for producing a majority of the sh8t American citizens consume. If China wanted to wipe the US out, all they'd have to do is contaminate the goods they produce for American consumption. A biological nerve agent on under-clothing and we're done.🤣 US political parties are two sides of the same coin sponsored by wealthy interests. The politicians serve them. The current administration is rearranging the deck chairs to promote 1) white nationalism and 2) enrich their wealthy contributors. The funniest part is that hundreds of millions of people either cannot or refuse to see the game beimg played before their own eyes. 😎

IMO, the meaning and purpose of life is to gain and share experiences and contribute to making life better for others. Whenever life gets to the point where it becomes mundane or meaningless or otherwise unproductive to the point that one is merely taking up space, they can rest assured the end is near.😁😎

Humanity has been what it is for thousands of years. IMO, individually, how we choose to live our lives, experiences gained and contributions made in making life better for others is the best we can do.😎

Today marked the first 100 days under the current administration. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. I'd imagine those red hats on the table belong to the cabinet members. 🤣😎
