aka Contrarian

No. I didn't know anything about ABM other than that he was from Chicago and Kola had designs on him. BTW I corrected the years we've known each other. I said it was 30 years, but it's more like 25. I'm FB friends with several members of the old gang from back then. Whatever happened to Thumper? Is he still reviewing books?

Not Mzuri. Sara was who you banned. Mzuri was left over from the Thumper's corner era. She used to be my ally against Kola Boof before we fell out. She was going to collaborate on that book with us.Remember? I think her real name was Pam. Sara was some Krazy chick from Chicago who thought she could run things here because she was the author of some book about black Indians.(native Americans) Pioneer uses this board as a receptacle for his trash. He should pay you a fee.

Listen to these LOVERS of America bitch and moan because also being shuckers and jivers who, between constantly objectifying women, crow about black men being superior to males of other ethnicities, and who are now sulking because their fellow chauvinists can't control their "much-envied" sexual prowess the way certain other black men are able to do, thus providing newsworthy material for the dreaded white media which is controlled by the deep state racist conspirators plotting to demonize black men in order to keep them from acquiring the power they are too inefficient to acquire in the first place. HoHum. Same ol, same ol. What black folks need to do is ,,,.go find a deserted island and start their own country so they can fight amongst themselves without interference from dem bad ol white folks who have no intention of sharing their power with a sub culture of colorists debating who's black and who isn't. Obviously I'm not trying to win a popularity contest here. Since I've turned in my black credentials. I can spew the narrative of my tribe and keep on truckin'. What a wise man who should've said nothing, once let slip: "It is what it is."

Trump is being welcomed into the Dictator brotherhood, hangin' out with former Iranian Isis leaders and Saudi Arabian princes. And America stands idly by, watching as he violates all rules of Presidential conduct. It's just amazing what this corrupt bastard gets away with. Where is the mythical man on a white horse atop a high mountain when America needs a hero?

Were any of Puffy's frreak-offs ever raided? He's on trial because his victims have filed suits against him. It's not white men who feel threatened by black men. It's abused women and vindictive exes who are trying to shake a freaky one down. Puffy seems to have issues about his sexuality. All the power in the world won't disguise his penchant to poke young guys. Freak-offs date back to biblical times and the days of the Greek and Roman Empires rife with Satyres znd Dioneysian men. It's all about the supply and demand.

Just for the record, this post was never about Mother's Day. It was about the meme I included. But it was hi-jacked by pioneer and his soap box ranting. Just like he barged in with his unsolicited lecture about how Chicago reacted to the new Pope. And threw shade on Mel's post about Cory Booker and Hakeem Jefferies holding forth on the steps of the Capitol building. He never met an issue he didnt think would benefit from the pollution of his tired old stale input. It goes without saying that Mel and Chevdove always have my ongoing support and high regard. Dey my gurls!

@ProfDThanks! You nailed it on all accounts. Your relevancy and wit on point and appreciated. Then - there was the drone and pall of pioneer imposing his presence on us, demonstrating his flawed personal observation by perceiving carpets while looking at hardwood floors, and subjecting us to his boring intrusive editorializing, casting himself as a hero by badmouthing Mother's day. zzzzzz Watta drag. It is, of course, what it is. @franksterThanks for the compliment. Nice of you to flatter an old broad like me

Many think the above expression is a trite cliche or an empty phrase. But I've always found it to be totally adequate because, in and of itself, it stands alone, unchallenged; language at its best, reality captured in pure and simple words, the essence of its message existing between the lines, reminiscent of the old adage about "one picture being worth a thousand words". An esoteric echo, "it is what it is" is what it is: a profound utterance that translates into the ultimate truth. See ya... Mother's Day 2025

No . Coming from you, I'd consider it a compliment. You know what they say: a candle burns brightest before it burns out. My wick is very short.

It should be "most of you on here DON'T come from this society not DOESN'T come from this society. Sheeze. Dummy.

@Pioneer1Just because I make a mistake doesn't preclude you from being a Dummy. You certainly are not a smartie. You're a wanna-be who, if called a Dummy, deflates. That's why I do it. Dummy.

@Pioneer1 yeah, yeah, yeah, you're just doing what what you usually do in your desperate deviousness. I didn't imply that no Italians are blacker than the current pope. I said if, as you stated, they're blacker than the current Pope, they are not fully Italian and furthermore were probably in the same category as the Pope. And no more of your demands will be met. I refuse to waste anymore time splitting hairs on this issue.

Check out the second word in the above paragraph. The reason you posted the pictures was to show how the Italians in question "looked".

A typo is nothing to be ashamed of. And, unlike you, I have no problem admitting mistakes. You're really grasping at straws.

You don't know nothing, obviously because you are using looks as a criteria for judging how one Italian looks more black than another one. So implicitly you are saying Italians look a certain way.

It's a typo, Dummy. btw, nobody asked you to come on my post and take up space with a lot of trite drivel with zero substance.

You figure it out, nit wit. It's very obvious you're stumped.

And what you are is far lacking in what you believe yourself to be. And not only yourself but what you believe others to be. You don't deal with reality. Because your perception is warped and polluted with ego-mania.

Well, that voids your statement about people "looking" more Italian than the pope.

And your confidence is unwarranted.

Why would I know the answer to that? GO BEARS!

Just because his surname is Italian doesn't mean he's pure Italian. Very possible he's of the same category as the pope.

No you're not. I can do 2 things at once.

@Pioneer1If the Pope's maternal grand parents are mulatto, then there arent any Italians who are more black than him. Who are you to set the criteria for what constitutes blackness? People of color can identify with whatever blood runs in their veins and shows up in their DNA.

@Pioneer1 Oh puleeze. NOTHING you're preaching about had anything to do with Chicagoans having a little tongue-in-cheek fun at the expense of da Pope. Laughter is good medicine. A buffoon like you has a lotta nerve lamenting others exhibiting a sense of humor. It's a wonder you aren't spamming this post with a bunch of goofy pictures. Something you regularly do to make fun of your own race. It's not like you're doing anything to make this world a better place. You're so full of it! Phew.
