Scandinavian countries don't have enemies. It is a utopia for white folks. Most nations do not spend a ton of money on defense. Only the biggest super powers do it. The US spends more than any other country. The real question is why does the US spend so much money and who are its real enemies. Russia and China are considered threats. Yet, America does more business with China than several countries combined. China is the defacto US labor force. Doesn't seem like an enemy. Bingo. I've mentioned that several times too. White folks taking care of each other. Africans and Asians should not be pouring into Scandinavian countries. They should be building their own sh8t. Right. Welfare in the form of goodies, guarantees and giveaways still overwhelmingly benefit the most homogeneous group of Americans...white folks. Yep. Ukraine is getting plenty money but it's definitely not to the detriment of white folks here in America. They aren't going to lose. Human greed creates the conditions that make it harder to get up regardless of one's intelligence. I know highly intelligent people who are more broke than a bag of glass. OTOH, I also know folks with little or no education who are very well off. The US has a literacy rate that is above average. Low intelligence affects a relatively small number of people in the US population. i believe fear...being afraid to do whatever it takes to become rich or wealthy is the real reason people have problems and get exploited. Most people who work a job for an hourly wage will never be rich. Many of them will have just enough to survive and might struggle to make ends meet. Despite trading labor for low wages, I would not consider that a sign of low intelligence. Countries are not poor due to low intelligence among its citizens. They are being exploited by the greed and corruption from their leaders. An argument could be made that only people of low intelligence would be afraid to overthrow their oppressor. Then, that would indict the entire Black population on the planet. Low intelligence has nothing to do with oppression. In fact, the late NF Jr. always said the people who need the most help should get it.

There's definitely something weird about it. Unfortunately, Black folks aren't sending up flares to investigate the murder of these brothers. Black politicians, athletes and entertainers, law enforcement personnel, judiciary, bounty hunters, vigilantes, social media influencers, etc., should be on the case. Since this happened in the state of Georgia, let's start with Sen. Raphael Warnock, gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, former ATL mayor Keisha Bottoms and DA Fani Willis.

True. Green is the color that ultimately triumphs everything. Usually any type of currency that enables people to have a *better* life will win. There was a brief moment in time during the early 1970s where Black pride was a thing. Integration has been a blessing and a curse.

I beiieve they willl try to abolish teaching rwcial aspects of history especially when education goes back to the states. The dominant society will keep track of race even as they claim moving towards a colorblind society. As it stands, skin color means something as they specifically refer to Black people when it comes to any type of discrimination, hiring practices, housing, education, voting. etc. There's always been only two genders as far as I'm concerted. Whatever folks claim or pretend to be is on them. When it comes to sports and designated bathrooms, it's male and female. No confusion.

Regardless of race, human greed and indifference makes poverty even worse. As I've mentioned before, Scandinavian countries have a welfare system that provides a standard minimum income, free education, free childcare and universal healthcare to its citizens. Yet, a continent rich in resources operates as if it's poor. IMO, human greed across the board is to blame for all bad conditions and ills in a society.

That colder ice has been a *problem* for a long time.

Yep. White folks in America stopped using their ethnicity in order to consolidate their majority in numbers and maintain power. The current administration is trying to eliminate race from education and employment. They have already taken us back to using two genders. No more pronouns.

Too late for any semblance of that happening. The current administration is trying to rip up, tear down and do away with anything that has to do with race. @Troy might get his wish but I don't think it's going to be a good thing for Black folks and non-whites.

This is another story that should be front page news across every Black platform. Everything about this situation is suspect until proven otherwise. I believe the twin brothers were abducted, taken to that mountain area and killed by racist white folks. Yet, Black folks are so far off code and removed from taking care of each other that we're in a perpetual state of indifference.

@Pioneer1, I'd like to how Black folks would benefit from a diverse group doing racial classification here in America. I doubt that it would result in reparations for FBA/ADOS.

Greedy and corrupt leaders are usually responsible for selling out their countries. African countries won't invest in their own infrastructure. Instead, they allow Chinese and Arabs to replace themselves. That's gonna happen when folks are reduced to being poor. If the country did a better job of eliminating poverty, greed and corruption the people would have a better quality of life. No need to flee or beg. No different from AfroAmericans. Athletes and entertainers have the same issues whenever they go back to their hoods. Right. The goal should be to change those conditions. Build alliances with other folks who have made it. Reinvest in the communities as a cooperation. Not as an individual. Easy mark. I believe the incoming white nationalism and supremacy on steroids will force Black folks to do something different. Survival will depend on it.

Brotha Malcolm X had it right when he said white folks have zero business being involved in Black organizations. Spies at best. All white folks have managed to do infiltrating Black affairs is keep Black sellouts, bootlicks and shills satiated on butter biscuits.

African countries are allowing it happen. A handful of Africans get rich from selling out their countries. Some folks enjoy crumbs falling from the table proverbially. Others flee to other countries for a *better* life. Those remaining on the continent of Africa are struggling just to get by and live a half-way decent life. I have zero sympathy for people who have a whole f8cking continent and don't control the resources on it from top to bottom. Maybe I'm jealous. IMO, Africa should surpass oil rich countries in terms of wealth and quality of life for every citizen.

Race may be a social construct but white folks have definitely embraced using it to maintain their power and domination over non-white folks. Other folks use race and ethnicity to differentiate themselves. As @Pioneer1 mentioned above, there's no confusion among white folks when it comes to describing folks especially Black and Brown. Look no further than how 1) law enforcement deals with folks, 2) Black history is being erased and 3) illegal immigrants are being rounded up. Race is made up but IMO it is a universally accepted reality. Just ask people who have been marginalized and/or profiled for one reason or another.

Right The Democrats have become a mixed bag of progressives and moderates. Right. The Liberals who care about social issues and Black folks are considered far-Left.

Many Tesla drivers are Democrats. Whenever charges are brought it will be interesting to see how the trials play out.

The only reason they would consider burning Teslas an act of domestic terrorism is because of who owns it. His money is having a major influence on American politics. They wouldn't consider it domestic terrorism if someone burned up a bunch of Kia or Hyundai vehicles.

Heard the news this morning. Big George will go down in boxing history as one of the greatest of all time. His knockout power was the precursor to Mike Tyson. It's also great that Big George was successful several times over in his lifetime. Very few people get as many bites at the apple. Thanks for the legendary fights. Many folks appreciate those grills too. RIP Mr. George Foreman.

Yep. Brotha @richardmurray has reminded me enough that Black folks are not a monolith and that we should move and/or be treated as such. Let every Black tribe hold their own proverbial nutz.

Right. Burning up Teslas won't strike fear in American citizens. The population won't believe they're under attack. I doubt Tesla is fearful of the backlash its owner has incurred. It won't put a dent in his fortune either. It will be interesting to see how charges are filed against the perpetrators. Let's see if they are charged as domestic terrorists or get the January 6th treatment.

There are cities, towns and communities that provide AfroAmerican tribes with autonomy from the dominant society. AfroAmerican tribes would be well served to protect themselves first and foremost. Then, build strategic alliances with other Black tribes to insure peace and prosperity across the board. If so desired, Black tribes can segregate and separate from the dominant society without being dramatic. Quietly slide smooth the f8ck off.

https://abcnews.go.com/US/tesla-vehicles-vandalized-us-musk-began-white-house/story?id=119910817 I have no idea of who is setting Tesla vehicles and charging stations on fire. However, we do know who owns Tesla and his proximity to POTUS OJ. The unelected dude is ruffling a lot of feathers. Even if the arsonists are politically motivated, it seems like a stretch to consider burning up vehicles a form of domestic terrorism. There are charges that can be brought against the arsonists once apprehended. I do not believe they are domestic terrorists. Feel free to make the case otherwise.

Right. Everything Project 2025 aims to do is a power grab and reshaping of America of epic proportion. Neely Fuller Jr. checked out before having to witness the system of racism white supremacy on steroids. if Black folks were powerless before now, the best prayers may not stop the incoming tsunami of white nationalism and supremacy.

Gotcha. That proverbial story ties back to one of NF Jr.'s themes about how Black men should only gather to solve problems. No partying & BS.

I don't recall that particular NF Jr.s story. He could spin them though.
