Troy There is no such thing as "relatively free". Either you're free or you're not. I believe this nation is LESS RESTRICTIVE that many others, but "free"? No. There's definitely no such thing as a "free market" society because if it's regulated in ANY way then it's no longer free. Restrictions apply.

Lol....alright @richardmurray it's "Titty Tuesday" what do you have for us this week????

The same technology that makes it easier to unite, also makes it easier to sow division and keep discord among the people...especially using social media. A racist can easily disguise themselves in a Black social media platform and turn the place upside down with bickering and infighting for mere destabilization. But as far as Black folks not using the tools at their disposal.............. Are you sure that's a product of "white supremacy".....or Black stupidity?

Mel What is Neely Fuller's agenda? To counter and eventually eliminate racism or what he calls "The System of White Supremacy" and establish Justice on the planet He's actually been around for a long time. He's 92 years old I believe...lol. I'm sure you've heard of our sister the late great Dr. Frances Cress Welsing and the Isis Papers.....well....he is HER mentor and set her on the path she was on! You can check him out for yourself by visiting his website: https://producejustice.com/ Fuller sounds like a philosopher. He is! Fuller’s counter to racism hasn’t changed system Black people must live under. For example, the link I shared above indicates young Black men are imprisoned at a higher rate for human trafficking - even though we know they’re not profiting from it. Mr. Fuller stresses in most of his lectures and interviews as well as his literature that his work is meant for the INDIVIDUAL...not the collective. He tells Black people to basically forget about trying to "unite" and work in large groups to eliminate racism because too many of our people have too much poison in them to work together. His philosophy and codes instruct each INDIVIDUAL what to do in hundreds of different real life scenarios that you may come across. If his code attempts to change behavior of the victims of supremacy - the U.S. Code still remains. That's exactly what his code was designed to do. Get the VICTIM (and this is what he calls himself and other people of color) of racism to change THEIR behavior so that they can live a less painful life under the system of racism. He also believes that this will help dismantle it in a minute microscopic way. Believe it or not, much of his advice actually works if you try it! ProfD By outside classification, Fuller would be considered a social scientist moreso than a philosopher. That's a good description of Neely Fuller. Not just a philosopher but a Social Scientist And one more accurate than most of the White social scientists I've read from.

Yes. The brother is very talented. I'd MUCH rather see Black people drawing other Black people, even if in cartoon form....than that racist "anime" shit so many people are into today.

No, as long as it's with a woman....I'm down for ALMOST whatever....lol. However I'm not a big fan of oral sex....giving OR getting. I wasn't when I was younger. I was told by some of the older men in my community that if a man get's used to TOO MUCH oral sex, pretty soon it's all he'll want. He wouldn't want a lot of sexual intercourse......only on occasion. But his main desire would be blow jobs. Now here's the REAL problem.....lol. Both a female OR a male can do it. So if he gets into a situation where there are no females around.....like jail or prison....then he might be seeking out another man to perform the deed. ....and that made a lot of sense to me. Some of these dudes, especially the younger men....all they talk about is "head" and how much "head" they're getting but rarely mention intercourse itself. I prefer the soft body of a woman smooched up against me....not a tongue or mouth.

Troy I see you're coming down closer to REALITY now by acknowledging that all of those "choices" you talk about are limited and restricted by multiple factors ranging from innate abilities to social injustices.....lol. So much for "everyone can choose their own careers, set their own wages, and live where ever they want"........ I thought I was talking to Armstrong Williams for a minute....lol. "And you know Dan...... I'm so glad and blessed to be living in a country where I can eat anytime I get ready. Say what I want without worrying about a knock on the door in the middle of the night. I have running hot water. I can go down the street and apply for any job I want and don't have to worry about racism. No sir, my color ain't holding ME back.....because MY colors are red, white, and blue!!!"

You know...... Maybe if a handful of brothers tried to do it, they'd mow them down. But if more than say....200 Black folks mobbed up like that. No way. White privilege is a SOCIAL CONSTRUCT not a LAW OF NATURE. What do I mean by that? I mean the same natural forces and powers that THEY use to maintain control and see that things go their way in society can be used by us IF we have the desire and will to do so collectively. It's the laziness and stupidity of so many of our people which keeps them from doing it. If 500 Black folks (not niggas) showed up to voice their anger over and election or policy or anything else and DEMOSTRATED their willingness to get physical.... "Sorry Charlie..... But NONE of us intend to go to jail today!" I GUARANTEE YOU.....MONEY BACK GURANTEE...any White law enforcement present would STAND DOWN and either wait for the National Guard to come or simply submit to the demands of the crowd and give the people the policies they want to satisfy them so they can go home. White folks aren't THAT damn crazy. They aren't gonna spark a Civil War just to prove some point of power. They have too much to lose getting into tussles like that. I'm telling you bro.......

ProfD Here in the USA. white folks make the rules and laws. They give permission (empower) others to act on and enforce them within the system of racism white supremacy. AfroAmericans need a voting rights bill regardless of the US Constitution because every politician we've had from past to present has either ignored or failed to codify it. White folks haven't given them permission In the United States White people are powerful, but they aren't ALL-POWERFUL. AfroAmericans have a degree of power both collectively AND individually but most of the time we use only a FRACTION of our potential power in this nation. Yes fear is a major reason. But LAZINESS and INDIFFERENCE is another major reason. Do Black people REALLY need to get permission from Whites to do what they want to do, or do they merely go through the motions and submit themselves to White authority to "avoid trouble"? I've said it before and I will continue to say it, Black folks CAN NOT BE STOPPED by White folks or any other race once we've made up our mind and put our foot down to do something. I've seen it over and over again. The ONLY people on this planet who can stop Black people and trip up Black progress is OTHER Black folks; which is why White folks have realized division and pitting negroes against eachother is their ultimate weapon. Nothing else they have comes close. But if we really DESIRE anything....we can achieve it and all of the collective efforts of the racists couldn't stop it.

ProfD You provided much food for thought. Although how a person is reared in their first 18 years of life HEAVILY influences their abilities in life, it's still only a FACTOR and not the major determiner. You know I'm big on INTELLIGENCE....lol. And by "intelligence" I don't simply mean how smart a person is or how much they already know but their CAPACITY to learn. I personally believe that if the CAPACITY to learn is limited or simply not there, it doesn't matter HOW a person is raised.....their future is still dismal unless a Miracle is provided for them. How many people both you and I know who were born and raised in wealthy homes with 2 good parents who gave them everything they needed and most of what they wanted to get a good start in life, only for them to fuck it up by choosing to run the streets, join gangs, turn to drug addicts, ect....simply....because? There are SEVERAL FACTORS to success in any society....Capitalist or otherwise. You can even be very successful and prosperous under an oppressive Communist Regime! Just ask Kim Jon Ill and his family....lol

I'd LOVE to see a group of Black police officers show up at a voting station and if they see ANY sign of voter suppression or intimidation by White officials or outside groups they would immediately arrest them, confiscate their equipment, and escort previously denied Black citizens BACK to the voting booth to submit their vote! "Ok, you're under arrest. You're being charged with Voter Intimidation 2nd Degree. Come with me sir" I'd love to see something like that. Why hasn't it happened before? *With all of the hundreds of arrest pictures on the internet, do yall know how long it actually took me to find a picture of a White man being arrested by a Black police officer!?!?!?

This is true. They automatically and institutively believe that the punishment will be harsher for violating a White person so they're less hesitant to do it. Some say even most Black police officers know this which is why you rarely hear about Black police brutality on White citizens. However in my opinion it still goes back to basic intelligence because if Black people have been in this nation for hundreds of years and occupy power at all levels of the society and government, we have the power to exact punishment and other consequences. We don't need to wait for White "permission" to do what's already well within our power and authority. Another example is voting rights............... Why do we need a "voting rights bill" when the Constitution gives ALL citizens (which clearly includes us) the right to vote?

And although they don't actually OWN much of the industry, for some odd reason it seems as if Black people in California are OVER-represented in the entertainment industry especially in regards to Hiphop and movies. Ain't but a handful of Negroes out in California and yet they seemed to dominate the industry back in the early 90s from NWA to Tupac. When I used to go to California back in the 90s I noticed that most of them acted like Black people who grew up in White communities. Not the ONE Black person who grew up in a White household or neighborhood who tends to simply act White; but if you know what I mean a GROUP of Black people who grew up in a mostly White community where they were disconnected from the larger more traditional Black communities. I'm not sure if you understand what I'm saying but I've noticed that Black groups who grow up as tiny minorities in a sea of White people and "disconnected" from larger more traditionally well established Black communities tend to act stereotypical. Less refined but more exaggerated.....especially in criminality. I takes keen insight to understand what I'm saying but I've seen it in little SMALL groups of Black people around the nation who grow up in mostly White areas; and that's what Black folks on the Westcoast remind me of.

Troy Yes, people have three power to choose what they do. Come on man, are you serious? Are you telling me that most people in this society can simply wake up and CHOOSE their occupation at will? No racial discrimination barring them from employment? No sexist discrimination barring them from employment? No criminal record that prevents them from a particular job? No physical or mental disabilities limiting their employment? Come on Troy....you know better than that....lol. Absolutely, but giving us the choice of where we live. Ever heard of RED LINING? And aside from that, their INCOME also limits their choices of residence. Most of the inadequacies of capitalism occur because we practice a perverted form of rife with racism, cronyism, and greed. I agree. I'm not anti-Capitalism. I actually prefer a MIXED economy with some things socialized and others capitalized. However we must keep things in perspective.

Troy Capitalism does a better job of handing these decisions, making them largely the choice of the individual. Does Capitalism allow the individual to choose their own wages? Does Capitalism allow the individual to decide how much they're going to pay for rent? I don't think Capitalism necessarily gives the individual more choices than Socialism does. Only if you are exceptionally intelligent and/or energetic in a Capitalist environment do you choices of success expand exponentially.

Dee Miller your responses about the movie and its characters were intriguing. At first, you made my head tilt to the right and my eyes squint because of how I interpreted your comments about Viola's character and the movie's attempt to 'masculinize' black women, but then I took a closer look and was able to recognize the intense love you have for us. Good look'n out. Thank you. You're MORE than welcomed my dear sister. Absolutely it's the love I have for my sisters that prevent me from sitting back quietly when you have an enemy trying to ridicule and disgrace them before the world. If you have a so-called friend who didn't pull your coat about people trying to use you and make a fool of you....what kind of "friend" would that be??? A REAL friend doesn't want to see you get hurt, taken advantage of, or abused. But a FAKE friend will just smile and tell you everything they think you want to hear but meanwhile have an ulterior motive. A men who really care about the women in their community don't want to see them get exploited or mistreated and will try to prevent that and warn them when someone is attempting to. A Pioneer pushes the boundaries to advance a cause or idea. I appreciate you, Absolutely. I consider myself a Pioneer for a brand new society and new way of thinking that will progress our people into a much better future. Troy Hummm where are you getting this information? Oral sex goes back throughout recorded history and in all cultures. Are you SURE about that? Being in "all" cultures? AfroAmericans had our own culture for hundreds of years and you'd be hard pressed to find any documents mentioning oral sex being practiced among our people for most of that time until recently. Not saying it didn't happen 200 or 300 years ago.... But how do you KNOW it did? What documented evidence can we point to to confirm it? Brain cancer from oral sex, girl there would be A LOT of people with cancerous brains running around of that were true Not sure about brain cancer but oral sex often leads to getting the HPV virus in their mouths and that can LEAD to cancer. @Chevdove I heard on the Black Diaspora channel that Lupita N'yongo was offered the script, but after she researched the history, she refused the role. Do you have any idea why she refused this role? I am curious. I heard the same think on the same channel...lol. I watch the African Diaspora Channel a lot. Brother Phil be on it....lol

You should have saved this one for "Titty Tuesday"....lol.

I hope our sister will be freed and I think she will. However it may not be until after the media makes a big deal out of her being a lesbian and shows her and her Black "wife". The plan is to show the entire world how perverse and sexually confused Black Americans have become, and this story is a great opportunity for them to take advantage of.

richardmurray One of the problems with trying to get Black people collectively to support a more communal mindset and society is the fact that we know a lot of our people are lazy and would wait on the rest of the community to support them if they could. Communalism works when nearly every able bodied adult is working and contributing. But when you have half of the men working and contributing and the other half wandering around looking for something to "get into" and messing with the women instead of working....it creates a lot of friction and resentment. Those who are working and contributing become resentful and bitter and feel taken advantage of; and those who AREN'T working and have no plans to work feel smart and "slick" like they've gotten over the "suckas" who are out there humping.

While I support Black folks moving out of the state NOW....what gets me wondering is why so many of the so-called "hard core" Black gangs sat up and ALLOWED the Mexican and other Latino gangs drive them out of their neighborhoods. Why didn't they fight back and hold their grounds? @Chevdove I lived in California for about 3 weeks in both Los Angeles and San Diego and realized that it was NOT a state for Black folks. It seems like most of the Black men who grow up there end up in jail as some point in their lives. Also most of the Black folks I saw in Cali were involved in the street life one way or another. Either homeless or in gangs or in illegal industries. It wasn't like Michigan or Pennsylvania where you could just get a job and pay for a place to stay and car and live your life. In California things were so expensive you had to have different types of hustles just to survive. Not the spot for me. Also too, I am very frustrated to say the least that a White homosexual man was allowed under America to adopt a little Black African boy!!! That's the entire purpose of foster care today. To steal Black kids from their parents and put them into the care of White homosexual couples. The question I have is why do so many Black people allow it? They sit back and let it happen. There are plenty of Black judges, lawyers, and police officers. We can decided WHEN and HOW it ends....if we really wanted to. ProfD Our ancestors invested 400+ years and counting of blood, sweat and tears in this raggedy azz country. There's no reason for AfroAmericans to leave any state in which we choose to live. We should be fighting racism wherever it confronts us While what you're saying is true, I think California is a lost cause. We CAN fight...and PREVAIL in California. But at just 6% of the population at this point....is the fight really worth it? I say just move out of the state and let the Asians and Latinos have it or just let it drop in the ocean. We have bigger fish to fry and better land to choose from.

Just another example of the lack of intelligence so many of our people suffer from. If they had good sense, they wouldn't behave so foolishly. Like I said months ago when it happened. You got some REAL hitters up in Buffalo New York. I'm sure half of the people standing around in that crowd staring at the crime scene HAD gats either at home, in their vehicles, and in some cases ON THEM. http://cdn.primedia.co.za/primedia-broadcasting/image/upload/c_fill,h_437,w_700/fieibnchaunlnms6yoel But didn't do a damn thing except stand around with their mouths open wondering what happened and why the White dude kill all of those mothers and grand mothers.

@Boxingfan Well...can you stick around to answer one more question too??? Being a member with it's rights and privileges..... You can easily start YOUR OWN thread to comment in. So why are you doing it in THIS one with an already established theme totally unrelated to what you're talking about?

The brother was smart....but foolish and immature at the same time. He was in his late 30s and should have known better than to do some of the shit he was doing. If I heard some White women talking about him, I used to tell the fool and he'd actually go and ASK THEM did they really say it? After he did that a couple times....I stopped giving him detailed information. I'd just point at a person and say watch out for them and left it at that. I'm a fan of CONTRACTS. You can't trust many of these niggas to have your back or repay you the loyalty they owe you, so you must do some sort of EXCHANGE with them that if you do "this" for them they'll do "that" for you. But trying to form a "brotherhood" with some of these fools is out of the question. Same thing with a lot of our sistaz. You try to form a coalition with some of them and the moment they see you sharing a laugh with a White woman, the deal is off as far as they're concerned....lol.

If...... But as the old saying goes, if "if" were a fifth..........lol.

ProfD White folks (Caucasians in general) have BEEN that way since their inception. Sexual perversion and ole weird ass sexual appetites are the NORM for them as group and they don't have to be convinced or brainwashed into do it. They were having sex with dogs while up in the caves and mountains of the Caucasus THOUSANDS of years ago....and continued the practice. No no no....it's OUR PEOPLE who they're really after when these different perverse agendas. We were the righteous people who "didn't do that".....until coming into contact with them. We don't have to mention LGBTQ.....I'm sure you're old enough to remember when most Black men didn't even eat coochie and thought THAT was a filthy act....lol. A few of them started doing it in the 70s and kept quiet about it right up to the late 90s when it became cool to admit. Same thing with the sistaz giving head. Most of them didn't do that 50 years ago.....they started doing it in the 80s for the most part. Learning it from being around White folks.
