  1. Oh, by the way........... Y'all talk about he must not be mentally impaired if he was able to become a millionaire. 1. He got rich as a by-product of making OTHER people richer. 2. He became rich because of his ATHLETIC/PHYSICAL talent....not his mental abilities. He's a gifted athlete with strength and speed and he was trained on how to use it by people much smarter than him. People who often took advantage of him BECAUSE of his mental problems. I personally think it's a good thing that we live in a society where a person CAN use their talents to enrich themselves and make their lives more comfortable despite their other short comings. There are probably better more intelligent fighters in impoverished nations who wished they had a FRACTION of the opportunities afforded to many of us here in the United States to improve their lives.
  2. Laydee Gaga I didn't say they RESPECTED or VALUED Black women. But most of them certainly are ATTRACTED to Black women sexually and even emotionally...based on my observations. Infact, I believe the only reason so many MORE sexual relationships don't exist between Black women and non-Black men is because most of these men are TOO AFRAID to approach Black women for a sexual relationship. I believe that THEY believe Black men are sexually superior and are self conscious about comparing themselves to us sexually. But the ones who make that move and find out that many Black women just LIKE non-Black men REGARDLESS of their sexual abilities or masculinity simply because they are White or non-Black......they often GO CRAZY chasing after Black women. I'm not trying to be funny but I've observed that once White, non-Black Latino, or Arab men get a TASTE of Black women....that's ALL they want. I've seen it many times. They GOTTA have a Black woman as a lover....even if they are married to a White or Arab woman! It's that Black woman who they REALLY want to have sex with and enjoy, even if they choose a non-Black woman for a wife. I've seen it on jobs so many times. They have PLENTY of women to choose from. White, Latina, Asian, ect.....but they STILL go for the Black women be they FBA or African! I'm telling you. Wait....🤔.....how did we end up talking about this subject in THIS thread too????? Talk about an obsession...lol.
  3. Troy Yes, I meant LITERALLY. Ofcourse women HELPED men build civilizations. But they weren't the LEADERS and DIRECTORS of building most of those civilizations. Cynique Under the rule of men, the world is in bad shape. Maybe it's time for a change in command. So why don't women "take over" and rule instead? Or better yet...... Since you and Troy claim that women can "build" civilizations like men, why don't some women get together and build THEIR OWN civilization to rival the one men have today? And I have to keep saying over and over again.... I don't say women don't build civilizations because they aren't smart enough or are in any way less intelligent than men. Building and leading and protecting a society is about MORE than just brains. It's about brawn, drive, courage, vision, and many other attributes other than intelligence that require more aggression and extroverted boldness.
  4. Those who have sense enough pretty much ALREADY do this. We have plenty of Black judges and prosecutors at various levels. This was in New York, I believe. Instead of chasing Puffy Daddy and Jay Z around trying to nail THEM on shit they did at some party 20 years ago....why don't some of these Black lawyers, judges, and prosecutors go after that subway killer?
  5. Most Black men...unfortunately....won't ADMIT to this. Their egos won't let them. The average Black man tends to be so prideful, cool, and macho one of the LAST things he'd do is admit that he would really like to attract more Asian or Arab or Indian women and is dismayed at the fact that most of these women won't give him the time of day and it frustrates him. He'd rather just IGNORE the disrespect and focus on the Black American and White women who ARE willing to sleep with him. Which is understandable. However as I've gotten older, studied history, and observed trends and patterns in society....I recognize that one form of disrespect often leads to another. If we allow other races...ANY of them...to disrespect us openly. Then that opens the door for the rest to do so. When these other non-Black groups started coming into the United States in large numbers and openly staying away from Black people and disrespecting our people, we should have gotten on it RIGHT THEN and straightened shit out instead of letting it ride so long. Black people often brag about our strength and how mentally tough we are, and although it's definitely an asset...I wonder could it have historically been a PROBLEM as well. In other words.... I often wonder would a less mentally tough people who were prone to break down or commit suicide would have "ended" their oppression a long time ago rather than "put up" with it and "endure" through it.
  6. Troy & ProfD So yall believe Mike is mentally average? 🤔.....eat your asshole alive? 🤔....a trained professional fighter admitting on national television that he hits women? And there's FAAAAR more videos I could show. This is just a sample. Seriously? You two SERIOUSLY believe that men of AVERAGE intelligence would speak and behave the way Mike does? Oh, I'm sorry....you're UNDECIDED. Despite all of his well documented and publicized behavior over the decades, you still "can't determine or judge" whether Mike is mentally deficient or has psychological issues? Still on the fence on this one, huh? Ok. Gotcha -😉
  7. ProfD It has to be identified as a problem worthy of being solved. That's what I'm attempting to do. However a lot of our bruthaz are too slow to realize this and pick up on what's happening. I thought we already identified that it's culture and an anti-Black narrative. Yes, but you switch up the focus from time to time. If I say it's because they're Black, you say NO...it's because they are broke and they need to get their weight up. But then in another argument in another thread when the issue is brought up again....you acknowledge that it's not so much the money issue as much as it's the anti-Black culture. It's like playing wack-a-mole...lol. "SURPRISE...NIGGA!" As soon as we nail down reason in one hole, here you pop out of ANOTHER hole with a different reason for the same problem...lol. . If a woman finds a man unattractive, it's not a vision problem. It's a chemistry problem. I don't believe women are being programmed to be unattracted to that which they naturally desire. ....or a CONDITIONING problem. Look at all of the light skinned and brown skinned women with very dark men today. 100 years ago many of them wouldn't give them the time of day because they would have found them very UNATTRACTIVE because of their dark skin. Colorism was a very huge problem among our people at that time. The women were CONDITIONED to find those men unattractive. As the times changed they were CONDITIONED otherwise. This is why I suspect this "all of a sudden" love affair with White men is a product of CONDITIONING. Sure. People are attracted to losers all the time. Women spend time with dudes who cannot provide for and/or protect them. That doesn't mean he's a loser. First of all, if he wanted her and GOT her...he's NOT a loser. Second..... Even if he can't protect or provide for her, he may be good in bed and able to give her multiple orgasms every night. So he's SATISFYING her sexually. He's giving her what she wants. Money will make a loser attractive. People will do something strange for some change. Now wait a minute mayon...lol. You're going to have to stop and define "loser" for me. First you're calling dudes who have the ability to attract women, "losers". NOW you're even calling some dudes with MONEY, "losers". I'd like to know YOUR definition of a "loser". There's no shortage of confident unaccomplished folks running around. Plenty broke azz dudes with game who have baby mommas and wives and girlfriends. Again, just because he's broke...doesn't mean he's "unaccomplished" and has nothing to be confident about. He may be HIGHLY accomplished in other areas where it counts. But, it would still take something for those women to fall in love with that Black man. Yeah, like letting him fuck them. Often times THAT helps with them falling in love with him and countering all of the negative shit they've been hearing about Black men for much of their lives. The kids will be all right. They always seem to figure it out one way or another. Some of them will, many of them won't. That's why so many young people commit suicide and engage in other forms of reckless behavior. They're NOT alright. Many of them are frustrated and angry and don't know how to solve their problems....and they think they're alone in dealing with them.
  8. But since Russia supposedly backs Assad. He's their "boy" overthere..... It seems like they wouldn't like the humiliation of seeing one of their boys being ran out of power like that. It makes THEM look weak also.
  9. ProfD I told him he should leave her alone all together, especially if she's told him several times that she has a boyfriend AND be talking to him sideways. I wouldn't want to be around a woman like that anyway. But he's obsessed and won't listen. I've seen situations like that. Even if she didn't really have a boyfriend, she could find ANY nigga to come up there and do something to him if he kept harassing her like that. I told him to just leave her alone and find somebody else. Sometimes THAT is enough to attract a particular woman you've been sweating for some time. Now she's curious as to who DOES have your attention now, since she no longer has it...lol. As far as focusing on making money and getting nice things......... You talk as if any or most men can just snap their fingers and get the intelligence or energy to just start making more money. Most men are making the money they are making because of their LIMITED intelligence. People tend to drive in THEIR lanes. If they applied themselves and did more, ofcourse they'd have more...but their BRAINS have directed them to the course they're on so why would you expect them to change? It's like telling a retarded person that if they did A B or C, they could have more money and live an independent life. Yes...they could...IF they had the mental ability to do so. They don't. So why even put pressure on them by telling them?
  10. Oh boy...........they done finally got around to him. Now they got Jay Z caught up in some shit too. It was only a matter of time. Nas...be careful mayne.
  11. But most of them claim they WILL..."one day", lol.
  12. Mike Tyson isn't really a "grown" ass man. He's physically grown, but mentally he's still a child.
  13. They ARE good for something. They serve as good EXAMPLES of what happens when you let shit get out of control in your community. As much as I value learning what it takes to be Successful.....years ago I began recognizing the value of learning what NOT to do also! As much as I want to, I may not currently know how to become a billionaire or collect a harem of voluptuous African women.....lol...but I DO KNOW not to fuck with heroin, get into cussing matches with the police, or save money by driving around without auto insurance. I know engaging in THOSE behaviors won't get me to billionaire status....lol. A nephew of mine is in love with this girl and has been chasing her around for 7 months. According to him, she doesn't want to give him the time of day and told him she already has a boyfriend anyway and wouldn't fuck with him even is she didn't. He often asks me for advice on how to get her and I tell him that he should probably leave her alone but besides that...because I haven't met her and don't really know her, it's rather hard to give him solid advice on how to woo her over. Now he's talking about hanging around up at the gas station she works at, hoping if he spends more time talking to her, she could see how good of a person he is. I said: NO....DON'T DO THAT....lol. I couldn't tell him exactly what TO DO to get her, but I could definitely tell him what NOT TO DO....lol.
  14. ProfD Again, knowing *why* Black men are lacking s8xual access to other groups should address your concerns. No, it doesn't. Because I already DO know why, and I'm still concerned...lol. Knowing WHAT the problem is is only part of it. A key part, but still ONLY a part. Actually SOLVING the problem should be the goal. ...that removes the concerns. However, I don't believe you are willing to *accept* it. Money and power. That's only part of it. There are plenty of Black men WITHOUT money or power who have plenty of sexual access to White women. So it's more than just money and power that allows sexual access to non-Black women. Any behavior that is unattractive needs to be corrected. When it comes to that which is considered "unattractive"... Perhaps the OBJECT being viewed isn't the problem, but the VISION of the viewer is. Perhaps too many women are being PROGRAMMED to find traits UNATTRACTIVE that they...by nature...SHOULD. Some Black women cycle through a bunch of loser Black dudes before they look elsewhere. But were they REALLY losers? Especially if they attracted THEM? Most women don't find a man she considers a "loser" attractive, let alone has sex with and babies with him. She obviously found the man SEXUALLY attractive. Now somebody has told her or conditioned her to believe that what she PREVIOUSLY found attractive and willing to sleep with...was wrong or bad. And that now she must look elsewhere to find a man that SOCIETY considers more suitable and acceptable. All of the Black women I see and know are procreating with Black men. No mix. I would say MOST of the ones I know are. But many of them are not. The problem is, the ones who are not seem to be GROWING. They shoot their shot. Like any man should do. They might have more confidence. Confidence often comes from SUCCESS. They aren't naturally confident. Most White men are timid when it comes to women. But if they find out the Black women are being condition to fall in love with them almost unconditionally....hell yeah it's going to raise their confidence levels. They realize they can almost NOT LOSE. Now imagine if every ASIAN or LATINA woman a Black man talks to falls deeply inlove with him. Wouldn't HIS "confidence" levels be off the charts? I think you're more concerned with Black men in their 20s and 30s having s8xual access to a variety of women. I don't believe it's a serious issue to them. Well, remember a lot of them today are gay and trans. Attracting women isn't even on their gaydar radar! So ofcourse it wouldn't be a serious issue for a large percentage of them.
  15. So Assad give up, leaves Syria to go to Russia and let the anti-government Rebels take over the nation. We hadn't even HEARD from these rebels for the past 5 or 6 years, the government had all but decimated them. Now all of a sudden they pop up out of nowhere and TAKE OVER? And Russia...who was supposed to be Assad's backer and benefactor....just goes along with it? Russia has MORE than enough fire power to stop an advancing rag-tag heavily armed street gang riding around the desert on jeeps and toyota pick-up trucks. But they just LET these dudes ride up into the major cities throwing up peace signs and claiming victory, without so much as a fight? Like Willie D said: "somethin' ain't right" ....and not just late at night. Something funny (as in strange) is going on with that Syria situation.
  16. Talk about sleep walking towards a dictatorship.
  17. ProfD Powerless men value s8x more than money. Rich and/or powerful men have access to unlimited s8x from all types of women. It depends on HOW those men attained their wealth and power. If they INHERITED it like many have, they still may not have the masculinity or charisma to command respect from women and many of them may not even LIKE women. Don't forget, many wealthy and highly influential men are sexual PERVERTS. Black men have to become more powerful. Power comes in different forms. Group power comes from UNITY. Unity comes from sharing the same goals and ideas. As Group A...one idea we should ALL unite on is if we can't have access to Group B or C's women...then they shouldn't have access to ours.
  18. Yeah.... And WHO'S going to be the ones actually BUILDING the computers, machinery, and robots??? Chile...go'on somewhere and SIT DOWN, you know you done lost this argument....LOL 🤣
  19. Ariana Grande can sing also. She could have just as easily played the role Cynthia played. This is just one more chapter in the narrative of further demonizing Black people. Every so often they have to keep "refreshing" it. Not only do they have to demonize Black men in the media and make them look like criminals (and now sexual predators with the P.Diddy scandals); but they also have to go after Black women from time to time and make them look more masculine and evil as compared to the White women. We saw this several months ago with the "Angel Reese vs Caitlyn Clark" thing where they kept trying to make the AfroAmerican girl look like the "bad girl" and make her rough and masculine compared to the "sweet gentle all-American" Caitlyn. Even the NAME of this movie: Wicked And how they keep trying to FORCE it on Black youth, especially Black female youth talking about it's something Black girls can "relate" to. WTF??? Look how they constantly try to equate and join "Black people" and "Black culture" and "Black women" with "Wicked". It's high psychology. Ofcourse I don't hear a lot of Black women complaining about this. Probably not on their radar. I'm curious to know what Chev, Cynique, Mel, and Lady Gaga have to say about this issue....if anything. Not curious enough to actually @ping them....lol; but if they happen to come across the thread, it would be interesting to hear their thoughts about all of this media hype this movie is getting.
  20. Public Enemy used to be MY GROUP back in the day. Still is. I used to bump them nearly every day in my rides, back in the day. Between my car and at home, I'd wear out 2 or 3 Public Enemy tapes....lol. Although they got rid of my man Professor Griff, I have to admit this was their best album.
  21. Stefan'll be back.....lol. He has to go on leave from time to time to get his "treatment". A few months later he comes back nice and respectful for a few days until somebody sets him off or the medication wears off and he becomes his accusatory overly sensitive self, before disappearing again...lol.
  22. 🤨 Was Egypt BUILT by women? Was England BUILT by women? Was Israel BUILT by women? Was Germany BUILT by women? Was Mexico BUILT by women? Just because a husband ALLOWS his wife to run a household, doesn't mean she BUILT the house or controls the family. He DELEGATES certain power to her while he focuses on other matters like making money and dealing with issues OUTSIDE of the home. Proving that you're a "capable leader" is far different than building a kingdom or empire from the ground up. I'm not suggesting that women lack the INTELLIGENCE to build an empire, but that most of them lack the type of VISION, DRIVE, AGGRESSION, and MOTIVATION that it takes to organize and unite angry and hungry people together to build a kingdom or empire from the ground up and protect it.
  23. Troy But I swear as it is writing what I say it’s correct then I hit save and the text has been changed. I’ve caught it a couple of times. It’s like it corrects what I’m writing After the fact it didn’t always do that. I believe you because I've seen it MYSELF a few times in my posts. I go back to re-read what I typed and know for sure that I didn't use THAT particular word. It is hard for me to take anything these children say on YouTube seriously. Particularly since the most absurd stuff is elevated and pushed into everyone’s feeds. I’ve published hundreds of videos over the years and it’s always the most scandalous stuff that gets viewed the most and I’m positive it’s because YouTube is pushing it, so people create more this stuff to feed the algorithm and make more money. so know the video themselves don’t bother me. I just wish people would take some of the more serious videos share those and talk about them as much as they do the videos of some silly little white boy talking about how easy black women are to bang. But this actually IS a serious issue because that silly white boy will grow up to be a serious White MAN, with more power and will take that confidence and mentality with him through out his life. He already knows how easy he THINKS it is to pull Black women and already thinks that they're in love with him (and many of them are) and will use those experiences to not only take advantage of the ones WILLING to sleep with him but quite possibly FORCE himself on other Black women with the excuse that "they really wanted it anyway". Sexual access is almost as important to men and the male ego as making money. And for some men, it's even MORE important. If something out there is causing Black men to LOSE sexual access to Black women and causing White men to GAIN sexual access to Black women, shouldn't we know about it...for the sake of our pro-creative abilities?
  24. Like Minister Farrakhan and the Honorable Elijah Muhammad before him...the KKK and other racist White groups can sit back and TAKE NOTES on how brutally accurate we can critique the silly ass fucked up and down right disgraceful behavior of so many Black people not only here in the United States but around the planet. The Right wing has NOTHING on us...lol. Elijah Muhammad built a mutlimillion dollar empire for Black Americans back in the 50s and 60s, and would come on the radio heavily criticizing Black people from the grass roots to the so-called "Negro leadership" telling them how foolish they were to try to mix in and make friends with their open enemies as well as for the other humiliating and silly things they were doing at that time. The difference between us and the right-wing racists is that when THEY criticize Black folks, they make blanket and ridiculous statements that you can easily dismiss and forget. When we do it, we can hit our people where it hurts and leave them shook up because we know them with far more intricate detail. When you genuinely love somebody and want the best for them, you will examine them in fine detail and try to point out their faults....with love...in hopes that those faults will be corrected. When you have contempt for them and only seek to use and exploit them....you tell them whatever they WANT to hear to gain their confidence and continue to use/abuse them.
