Maybe they were constipated.

I forgot about this conversation I had years ago too....lol. I'm glad Troy dug it back up. Whether it's a good or bad thing I'm not sure.......lol....but it reminds me of how "consistent" my thinking is on certain subjects. BTW...... I haven't and I don't know of anybody personally who has....atleast ADMITTED to me....that they "experimented" with homosexuality. Homosexuality isn't something most people experiment with. It's like experimenting with eating shit....lol. You don't do it because you not only have no desire to do it but actually have a strong aversion to it. I'd imagine most men have no desire or curiosity of having a dick up their ass...lol.

Troy Why are you introducing the "government" into the picture now Mr. Strawman. You keep calling me "Strawman". But this ain't The Wiz....and I ain't Michael Jackson. Sure, but it is certainly enough to easily absorb the current immigrant popular and more -- it that is what we wanted to do. The LAND is big enough to hold the people but not the infrastructure. There aren't enough schools to properly educate all of the people in the U.S. There aren't enough hospitals and medical clinics to properly treat all of the people in the U.S. There aren't enough jobs to properly employ all of the potential workers who are now in the U.S. The immigrant population PERIOD....both illegal and legal...are straining the system and breaking it. You completely ignore the fact the people actually generate resources. It is not a zero-sum situation -- think increasing the size of the pie. The question is are they PRODUCING more than they are CONSUMING? And another question is where is much of their production going? Besides goods and services, most immigrants are working and producing/making money as you suggest. And this is good for the economy EXCEPT for the fact that a large portion of that money is sent overseas back to their native countries, and not circulated in this economy. Consider this in your analogy: Did you know that approximately 50% of the PhDs awarded in the sciences go to foreign born students? That tells me that that TWICE as many Americans would be earning PhD's if foreign students weren't taking their spots in those programs. You're looking at it from a purely humanist point of view of: Who cares where they come from, if they're smart enough to get the degree let them come in and get it. I'm looking at it from a nationalist point of view: America should take care of America FIRST and make sure the needs and most of the want of American citizens are taken care of and THEN we help others with our surplus. Once ALL Americans who are qualified to earn a PhD can go to school and attempt to do so....if we have any spots open THEN foreign students will be allowed to participate. And this rule should be incumbent on all Universities both public and private.

Most of the Bible was actually written for Caucasians....not us. It starts off with the history of ADAM (White man) and his descendants and how they were kicked out of the Garden of Eden (Africa).

They tried to insinuate the same thing about Malcolm X. They're trying to smear the reputations of these men and assassinate their character to make Black and Civil Rights leaders look immoral. They claim they are adulterers. They claim they are Communists. The claim they are homosexuals. The list goes on and on. Where is this information all of a sudden coming from 20, 30, 40 years after the fact??? I don't believe King was a womanizer like that. He may have had an affair....he may not have. He's not here to tell HIS side of the story.....so his enemies are telling it. Too late. If the information didn't come out while they were living to address it, the it's not credible. At this point I REFUSE to believe ANY malicious information about Malcolm X or Martin Luther King produced after their death.

frankster Africans come in various forms.. True. But at what point does a person STOP being African because there is little to no African blood running through their veins? The Racial Caste System is rooted in the idea of fomenting Intra-Racial Discrimination and seeming Privilege. True. In a Social Pigmentocracy Black American and AfroAmericans are the same Ofcourse. Because in the System of so-called White Supremacy, ALL non-White people are the same regardless of color, shade, or degree of admixture. However as AfroAmericans we can't afford to let others....especially our enemies...label or categorize us. The Racial Caste system led to the development in the African community of discrimination based on skin tone shade or complexion - as in colorism shadeism and featureism True again. Part of the problem is in the English racial caste system (which America followed) they lumped everybody together and CALLED them "Black" regardless of the degree of Black ancestry they actually had. The Spanish racial caste system was a little different where they actually made a separate races for their mixed offspring -Mestizo or Mulatto. Actually this was more accurate. Some say it's more divisive, but actually....the divisions exist between mixed race people and Black people REGARDLESS of what we want to call ourselves. Many if not most mixed people think they're better and often relate to White people more than unmixed Black people. They think they look better and think they are smarter, and a lot of Black people feel this way also. Calling EVERYBODY "Black" and lumping everybody into the same group was a formula for confusion. Your emphasis is on complexion....as the main if not the only deciding factor. How do you know? I take in ALL of the obvious phenotypical feature into account, not just skin tone. Actually calling someone "Black" or "White" to denote their race does this very thing! If I went by complexion alone, I'd be calling all albinos White....lol. To me Black as in people usually refers to.....Descendants of EnSlaved Africans in the West While Afro Which really references an Hair texture that is Natural or common to people of African descent or mixture. Both terms are in a sense appropriate I prefer to called descendants of Western enslaved Africans Black and all others Afro-Americans or add their nationalities as a suffix VGQ (Victim's Guaranteed Qualification) Here is where problem can arise. Africans who lived here in West and are not descendants of slaves but came direct from Africa as free persons and remained are then called what? In my opinion, THEY should be the ones called "African Americans"....lol. What are White persons born and bred on the African continent for generations then called? Squatters....lol. Delano I don't have bandwidth to play Blacker than Thou. But you have the bandwidth to insinuate that MLK was a homosexual? Troy That is scientifically false. If it is, then produce data showing gender's "genetic" foundation.

The problem is when there is so much hate being spewed at her not only online but from the Whitehouse and Congress, ofcourse some nuts are going to feel emboldened to try something. MAGA is inciting this type of violence. I like how our petite little sista balded up her fists and charged at the fool like she was ready for some action. .....then called him ugly, lol.

You claim to disavow racial stereotypes....but then you engage in them by promoting the idea of the "Italian Stallion" This is what I'm talking about...... Black male sexual superiority is questioned and in many cases downplayed and dismissed....especially by other Black people ironically. But the idea of a "Latin Lover" or an "Italian Stallion" is a welcomed stereotype that society not only promotes but embraces. When the idea that Latino men or Italian men make great lovers or are sensual is presented, where is the push back and accusations of stereotyping???? I guess it's only a stereotype when it's something that benefits US. But if it benefits the image of White men, it's renowned. BTW.... Italian men are promoted as sensual and sexual in the WHITE community because subconsciously the White community is fully aware of their distant Black ancestry. An Italian man is about as close as a White woman can get to having a "Black stud" for a lover while he's still classified as White.

Is it a matter of proof or acceptance? Medicine may be accepted without being proven to actually work. Magic may be proven to work and effective, but still not accepted for either religious or skeptical reasons.

I guess it's just my ego. BTW.... You made great points on that Quanell X thread. I decided to take it down since the theory was rather baseless and as you pointed out....he claimed that Biden resigned. When I first heard it I thought he said that, but then I thought I misheard it and that he was talking about him declining to run again.

ProfD They're still free. Well..... Free means unrestrained or unrestricted. Isn't a casket quite restricting? A dead body is SELF restrained...lol. Would you choose to be a slave to another man? You may find my answer appalling but, it depends. It depends what MY situation is at the time and what that man is TRULY (meaning he keeps his word) offering me in exchange for for my bondage. Does being a slave to a particular person offers far more benefits to me and my family than walking around free as a bird? I'm not some bearded White man walking around with an American flag tattooed on his chest yelling and waving "live free or die" flags and shit. That's a lot of dramatization and cosplay. I prioritize happiness and comfort over simple freedom. Especially when it's not real freedom to begin with.

No, it wasn't disputed. However if I were to be honest, I'm a little disappointed that I haven't been getting the pats on the back I feel I deserve for predicting something nearly 2 years ago that few people thought about. Or atleast didn't discuss publicly.

richardmurray why didn't you mention cocaine? Same reason I didn't mention heroin or crank or angel dust...lol...I didn't feel like mentioning EVERY street drug out there. crack is merely cheap cocaine? crack is like those dollar beers fiscally poor people drink at times, it isn't 100 proof vodka , far from it but it does have alcohol in it. Cocaine is more potent than crack and cocaine mountains have always existed downtown manhatten in white offices and homes of the upper or lower rich and upper poor whites. What are white people thinking? Crack is more than just the rock form of cocaine. When it's pure cocaine it's called "free base"....Crack contains far more impurities. Also, Crack tends to be more addictive than Cocaine because it's usually smoked which produces a more intense and quicker high. I find it interesting you singled out meth and crack but didn't mention opium which is where the opiods from from, or cocaine where the crack comes from? I find it interesting that in all of the things I post.....THIS is what you take interest in....lol. You must have read that post in between your visits to the blood bank to make your hourly deposit....lol. lets add gambling, let's not limit addiction to substanced, i argue gambling is far more potent, if you consider how many people play the lotto in humanity, i am speaking of the lotto exists in every country with money, think about that: india/china/russia/usa/england/australia/brazil, every country has lotto or similar forms of gambling, that use of wealth that goes nowhere but to the tables pockets, alot of drugs get daily use and not just powders and elixers. Yes, gambling can be addictive too based on one's personality. However gambling usually doesn't pose a danger to others outside of those who are participating....usually. Where as drug and alcohol abuse often poses threat not only to the abuser but to the victims of accidents and crimes they commit while under the influence or in the process of trying to get money to feed their addictions. You rarely hear about gambling addicts trying to rob a store or selling their children to support their habits. the answer is grow your own, Facts 👍🏿

richardmurray I have done research in colleges, know others who have done research in colleges, the government in the usa is the funder for colleges and universities hands down. The private sectors level of investment in college research is no where near the governments. And again, most of the colleges are not private. Most of the colleges the usa government funds through research are not private institutions, they are public colleges which is the government. According to AI: "As of the 2020–21 academic year, the United States had 3,931 degree-granting postsecondary institutions, consisting of roughly 1,576–1,892 public institutions and over 2,100 private (non-profit and for-profit) colleges and universities. While private institutions are more numerous, a higher percentage of students attend public universities. " So it appears that there more private colleges and universities than public ones. And even the public institutions aren't actually ran by "the government". They are ran by individuals who are hired and fired the institution itself similar to those that are private. Now most academic institutions both public and private are either funded by or TAKE funding from the Federal government. But that's not the issue. The point is that the colleges and universities, even if they are public....don't OPERATE like a branch of the government like law enforcement or traffic control. They're ran or operate like private institutions, supposedly hiring and firing people based on qualifications and self interests and are motivated by profit seeking and revenue increase. What is your personal problem with china? or chinese? first I can tell you , you are incorrect about chinese invention. But more, importantly, is second, where does this negativity toward china come from? Who said I was negative towards China? My only issue with them is they CLAIM to be Communist but in actuality practice ultra Capitalism. Their current economic practices are in direct contradiction and conflict with what their modern founder Mao Zedong and his fellow revolutionaries fought and died for. Which was an end to Western imperialism over China.

"I wonder who made THAT happen......."

I'd be interested to know the demographics of the lurkers.....lol.

Troy So, you are likening the US with a university PhD program? Sure. Both the United States government and a University are institutions, right? They both have limited room, limited roles, rules, and regulations. Colleges have limited number of seats the US has plenty of room and resources. Interesting that you say colleges have "limited" seats, but the U.S. has "plenty" of room and resources Plenty isn't the opposite of limited. This says that you too realize that the resources in the U.S....although seemingly plentiful....are also limited too. Our problem is how our resources are utilized and allocated. ...not just that but also WHO gets to utilize and allocate them. If nearly ALL of the resources are in the hands of the 1% elite of this nation and they allocate a LIMITED amount of those resources to the rest of the population; then it doesn't matter how much ABSOLUTE resources the nation has....the amount available for use is limited either way. Now if only a set limited amount of room and resources....food, jobs, housing, medical care...is available to the current population and you let millions and millions MORE people in, then that automatically means the current population will get LESS food, fewer jobs, less housing and in some cases NO housing. Which is what you see happening in America today. That excess population thins out the already limited resources available.

Troy Outside of a historical or traditional context, genetics plays little to no role in determining a person's gender. THAT is a purely social construct. And the problem with your statement is it mixes apples with turnip greens....lol. You're mixing genetic/phenotypical classification with social identity.

ProfD Right. Everything about this existence stops. No more chains. No, but the chains are replaced by worms wiggling around on your wrists....lol. Many people find enjoyment &/or pleasure in doing absolutely nothing. Death provides it. But according to the atheist/agnostic view point...they CAN'T find enjoyment or pleasure in death because they aren't conscious. They don't really want to be free. Like a drug addict, they just want to get high. There's a difference. Well..... I think what most people want is PEACE and HAPPINESS. Now if freedom will bring you that, then like Cinqe said in Amistad: "GIVE ME FREE" But if you're in bondage and being fed, clothed, and housed in relatively comfortable conditions and being "freed" means all of that would be removed and you'll be tossed out into the harsh cold winter with no master and no shelter either.........then many would argue that bondage is probably better. Yet, there's no way of proving &/or knowing alternative dimensions or realities exist other than one's own mind. There is plenty of proof. Has been for decades if not centuries. It's been proven beyond any doubt that Realities exist after physical death and beyond this one. Whether one chooses to accept it or not, is another story....lol. Freedom, enjoyment and pleasure are not synonymous or inextricably linked. Correct. For examples, humans find enjoyment & pleasure in s8x but procreating can nullify their freedom. People enjoy getting high until a terrible accident gets them locked up behind bars or worse.🤣 So you see the point I'm making of why freedom in and of itself isn't necessarily the ultimate goal for most people.

Lol.... You want me to dig up scientific text and research on an easy Sunday morning just to convince you of something you probably already know; that Black men tend to be more physically attractive? Your life experiences and observations aren't enough to draw that conclusion? The fact that White men have historically been insecure over Black male sexuality isn't enough for you to draw that conclusion? I could dig it up in 15 minutes, but like Troy on the race issue.....no matter how much information I provide it won't change your position of opposing mine. You'd either ignore it or poke holes in it and maintain your position -which is opposing mine, lol.

Troy Sure, if they identify as such. And that's the problem. In your opinion people can identify however they CHOOSE to identify and that identity will be accepted. I think this is a TERRIBLE mistake. You can keep them out the Black club. Yes you can. White folks know who is and ain't White and do a pretty good job of gate keeping....lol. If...by YOUR definition - not mine...being Black is linked to our ancestry and culture and the Congolese shares none of that, then they aren't Black and shouldn't be accepted as such. I choose not to and welcome them with open arms. Would you also welcome a man....who insists that he's a woman....with those same open arms? It's the same thing. Again, I assert rejecting, embracing, or assigning characteristics to people based upon how they look is simply dumb. How one looks is PART of their characteristics...lol. Again, would it be dumb for you to reject this person as a woman based on how they look?

When the doctor prescribes you medicine, do you try to figure it out....how it works....and "understand" it before you take it? Lol, or do you simply follow the instructions of one who knows more about these things than you?

When a University only has so many seats available for their PhD program and seek candidates to fill those seats they'll test a large group and weed them out based on who has the highest test scores. That's like you telling them that they can't have it both ways, either they have enough room and resources for everybody applying....or they don't. But they can't have it "both ways". What you're calling "both ways" or a seeming contradiction in positions is actually called analytical thinking.

ProfD Right. It has been happening for a long time now. Funny part is when people asked for natural remedies for their ailments & conditions they would get side eye from medical professionals. That is until industries started producing *natural* herbs & supplements which can be found on store shelveseverywhere. Many of those so-called natural herbs and supplements have been watered down and are next to ineffective. The medical industry made sure of that. When I started really getting into herbs and supplements and natural health back in the 90s, most of the herbs that you'd get at the drug store or grocery store were FAR more effective than they are today. Now you have to go to a Whole Foods or GNC or some independent health food store to get the real stuff that actually works or that is potent.

See, I don't think I'm getting enough credit for my prediction.
