ProfD Right. There's no shortage of blended together either personally and/or doing business. An individual or a group only becomes an enemy either when they undermine and/or bring hurt, harm or danger to others. Otherwise, as NF Jr. instructed, no contact is best if/when the alternative leads to an argument and/or a negative physical confrontation. Wise words. If we'd actually HEED Neely Fuller Jr's advice instead of just paying lip service to it like so many of these podcasters are doing, we'd actually make more progress. They talk about "the code" and "being on code" but one of the rules of the code is to NOT criticize and fight with other Black people in public. Especially over petty and trivial matters. A rule they constantly break. There's definitely an angle to his hustle. He knows how to create content and feed his base It's almost to the point that this is ALL he talks about now. He rarely talks about his future documentaries and doesn't even mention Mink Slide anymore....lol. Every show no matter what the subject eventually get's into dissing the "tethers" and blaming them for everything that has gone wrong in our community since MLK. I still believe there's hope for him, though. He is very influential, so if he stops clowning on other Black people (who don't need to be clowned on) then dozens of other podcasters will follow suit.

Lol.... Are you talking about Jet magazine's Beauty Of The Week?

As long as it's 56,500 women and maybe 500 gay but masculine men to protect them.....I wouldn't be mad, lol.

ProfD No, she's not a bad looking woman at all. A little too skinny for my tastes.....lol...but nice to look at. That clip of her on the Cosby Show in my opinion is a text book example of how to ooze sexiness and just how a woman CARRIES herself can make her extremely desirable. In that clip she's not wearing anything provocative but just her talking, her eye contact, and the way she's smiling pour sexiness and attractiveness all over the screen. I don't think she could have been any more attractive if she was wearing a bikini...lol. I think Ilhan Omar is more attractive though. Not because she's younger, but her overall package.

Once again....I called it.

I called it. I told yall over a year ago THIS is what they wanted to do.

Distressing. Not surprising. I said before he even got elected to watch and see the immigrants he goes after.

ProfD To that end, I'd imagine Tariq has had experiences with other Black folks that have shaped his perspectives when it comes to Non-FBA/AfroAmericans I think we all have, or atleast most of us. I don't know any AfroAmericans who haven't met or had experiences with Africans, Caribbeans, or Black Latinos. We all know they tend to think and move different, but that doesn't make them the enemy. He knows better than that and he's too smart for such limited thinking; which makes me even more suspicious as to his motives. If a fool does something, I don't hold them to too high of a standard anyway so I'm not surprised. But when a smart and intelligent person who knows better does something that is offensive or hostile.....that's different. Troy You have to go directly to the trusted sources. That's called Prayer.

Troy I'm not familiar with MOST of what you're talking about.....but your happiness and enthusiasm is making ME happy and enthusiastic....lol. You remind me of a kid playing with a brand new toy that he didn't even ask for and got as a bonus on cozy Christmas morning. 😝 I'm going to ask AI how I can double my IQ, get rich in less than a year, and buy an entire island off the coast of Africa.

ProfD Well, Iman is pretty interesting for a couple or reasons. First of all, yes....she married a White man eventually but the first American she married was actually a Black man. FBA. A basketball player. Also, I'm not sure if she does it to keep the peace and integrate herself into this society without causing a backlash, but she actually does identify as Black. I've seen her doing it in several interviews. Troy If we were talking about most other groups of Sub-Saharan Africans like Nigerians or Zimbabweans or Kenyans....I'd whole heartedly agree with you. Somalis tend to be a special case though, lol. Many of them are very racist and anti-Black. Not only do they not identify with being Black as a race, many of them actually don't like Black people and brag about enslaving them in Somalia. Obviously all Somalis don't feel this way, but a large percentage of them do. I think as AfroAmericans we can definitely work with them, but we must be careful with them.

This is where creativity comes in. Instead of being seen as a threat to displace workers, AI could be used to actually make more work by establishing new industries where none were previously. Local, county, and state governments should be consulting with AI programs on HOW to produce more jobs. On top of that........... As many sick and disabled people as there are in this society, there should never be a lack of jobs for those able bodied and willing to take care of the needs of the sick and disabled on different levels. Not everyone has bedside manners and are qualified to work directly with patients, but food delivery, home repair, housekeeping, prescription running, ect.....there are millions of potential employment opportunities available in the healthcare industry alone. .....if the government is willing to use it's resources to pay decent wages for them.

Man, why would a picture of an interracial couple of sissies remind you of ME???? Come on bro........

'Godfather of AI' says the technology will create massive unemployment and send profits soaring — 'that is the capitalist system' Pioneering computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton, whose work has earned him a Nobel Prize and the moniker “godfather of AI,” said artificial intelligence will spark a surge in unemployment and profits. In a wide-ranging interview with the Financial Times last year, the former Google scientist cleared the air about why he left the tech giant, raised alarms on potential threats from AI, and revealed how he uses the technology. But he also predicted who the winners and losers will be. “What’s actually going to happen is rich people are going to use AI to replace workers,” Hinton said in September. “It’s going to create massive unemployment and a huge rise in profits. It will make a few people much richer and most people poorer. That’s not AI’s fault, that is the capitalist system.” 'Godfather of AI' says the technology will create massive unemployment and send profits soaring — 'that is the capitalist system'

I don't know why, but that response tickled me like a feather....🤣 I think because I was imagining your facial expression and tone of how it would sound, when I read it...lol.

ProfD We really don't have to kill or destroy other non-white folks in order to be free and amass wealth. ...except for occasional self defense. You know how some of our people get when they see you with a little success...lol. richardmurray And that is why I shouldn't had replied. I was foolish in replying to your point about smart and dumb because if we don't see those two identities as the same way, then outside of trying to convince each other, which I at least have always spoken against. I hate proselytizing. Then nothing to talk about really. I made a mistake. I hope not to make again. I don't want to put you at risk of making another mistake, however I AM curious as to how YOU define "smart" and "dumb" if you see them differently than I do. I have never eaten at starbucks.. oddly enough some generational elders in my bloodline have eaten at starbucks when I haven't. You haven't eaten there, but have you DRANK from there? But, the firms aren't necessary Pioneer. The technology doesn't require the firms. In my opinion, we're starting to get a little too technical when it comes to whether or not they're "necessary" or "required". What IS necessary besides food, clothing, shelter, and healthcare???? Those firms are an essential part of what it takes to maintain the high standards of living that most Americans have come to enjoy and expect. And there is more to come. If you remove them, maybe people wouldn't die in mass numbers however removing them or letting them collapse would drastically reduce the quality of life for most Americans and take away their incentive to work and live in this society. They are not only the icing on the cake but they are the cake...the dessert. That special something that gives America her "edge" on the rest of the world and makes them aspire to emulate us. For another example, lets say I own a hospital chain. Has achieved a method to recover from cerebral damage or birth defects using acute neurotrophic electrodes systems aligned to human nervous systems through a large language model system. My hospital will get tons of clients and be successful. But, lets say I mismanage it? why can't all our technology be sold or made open source? Well first of all THAT type of technology...technology that actually heals the human brain and corrects birth defects....is so valuable and essential that the government SHOULD have it anyway regardless. Once it has been announced that you have technology THAT precious, it should be immediately shared with the government so that it is protected. Now...... As far as the institution who came up with it- If YOU mismanage it...then YOU get disciplined up to losing your job. The hospital corrects itself, and then it moves on helping and healing people. That's how THAT should work. No need to shut everything down and divide up the spoils How am I condemning the technology or standard or living, by stating the firms that are in control of them at the moment who have failed needed to fail properly? Because hospitals and airlines affect and save far too many lives to simply be ALLOWED to fail just to prove a point. Maybe the government takes them over and controls them for a while until they get their act together, but don't let them collapse. Don't throw the baby out with the dirty bathwater. Thank you for this. For the economic corner I am very happy for this discourse. Because in all earnest, one of the biggest financial viewpoints that I think splits many today , is how we view failed firms. No firm is to big to fail, and every firm , starting with the biggest needs to fail properly, because bankruptcy allows two important things to happen. 1)an industry realigns correctly with the absence of a bad player. 2) all the poor investors are properly penalized for their bad investment. But how many lives will be lost and lifestyles will be disrupted in the process? That's the bigger picture. These things have a domino effect. I will place my list again, in case you didn't read it. I read it. Lol...did you read MINE? What is socialism is the first question? Pioneer I don't know how you define socialism but the following is mine. Socialism is a multifaceted concept which has forms for each aspect in society designed to create classlessness, or no tiers in the humanity utilizing it. What you're describing is pretty much incompatible with human nature. There is no society human or animal that functions without classes and tiers. Unlike fiscal capitalism which is a primarily financial idea and promotes by definition financial castes. Socialism involves, financial+ governmental+cultural pathways distinct from each other. Financially, socialism is an intricate bartering system of labor and goods absent currency, why, the accumulation of currency creates financial castes thus a class based system. This society is far too complex to operate without currency. Bartering was good when the number of goods and services TO barter with were under 100 or even under 1000. Today, you have over 1000 different PROFESSIONS let alone the hundreds of thousands of other jobs descriptions and the billions of different products. These can't all be traded at some garage sale or over Craigslist....lol. While bartering only labor and goods and services means each individuals merit or the merit of the land are the only factors in fiscal trading, which can be aligned efficiently in calculated measure. Governmentally, socialism is a military state where each citizen with no exception is a member of the military and thus the chain of command is all that is needed. Elected officials or governors are not needed. Yes each military has a ranking system but it is a false assumption to think rankings have to serve the model in western europe. Culturally, socialism is an eradication of all old ranking systems based on prior heritages for a new heritage of one peoples, with no bounds. What about the military itself? How would it operate without rank; or would it even EXIST in your ideal Socialist society? How many socialist countries existed in history to modernity ? I argue none. Why do you think this is?

The West has ALREADY intervened in Iran. That's why they're having a revolution over there right now....lol. The only reason the U.S. hasn't taken over Iran already is because of Israel's safety. I used to think that Israel could handle Iran by herself, but after the performance last summer....that's been thrown into doubt. Iran can do too much to the United States but can do some real damage to Israel and the U.S. knows it.

Here's another famous Somali woman. Very beautiful, but married a White man.

Chev Absolutely! I think Renee Good was actually protesting against these ICE coming after the Somalis, at least that is what I've heard. This government it seems to me that they are trying to do more than just reduce our population. I think they don't really want us all gone, you know, they need some of us around to feel supreme, but we are dealing with some terrible times. This is what Neely Fuller Jr. calls "racial tailoring". Like you said, they don't want ALL of us gone. They don't want to get rid of ALL Black people, but they want to reduce the numbers to a more "manageable" population. They know Whites are going to be a minority in this nation pretty soon, so what they're doing is trying to fix it up so that you'll have so many Black people vs so many Latinos vs so many Asians....in the proportions that THEY want them in. Latinos are good for manual labor so they want them to be the bulk. A good number of Asians and Indians too. They need Black people for entertainment and creativity, but they don't want TOO MANY niggaz running around and posing a threat to the system...lol. Since there won't be enough White people to control everybody directly, they want to fix it so that ONE group fights with the OTHER group to keep eachother in check while he sits on top and monitors it all. I feel like this is not living now, though, and for the first time, I actually feel like protesting with this cause. I don't really know why I feel this way, but I do. I think that many of these protesters like Renee Good are standing up to what is happening to Black people as well, and so, maybe we should support them because they are supporting our human rights too. I just saw a video of ICE agents rushing up to a Black man pumping his gas and demanding that he show identification and the man was well dressed and well behaved. All of a sudden some White men came out of the convenience store or from somewhere and got up in the agents face and started yelling at him to 'Get the F3ck out of town'... 'You F3cking Nazi...!!!' And the other white men were recording with their phones. Some other black men were also recording. That white man got up in his face!!! He kept yelling at him, and finally that agent got back in his vehicle and drove off. It's a GAME. I know it's tempting to help out but don't go for it sis! It's a trick! It's a game! I saw the video too. It was a Somali man they were initially interrogating......... First of all you know they've BEAT UP Black men AND Black women for less than that! Now all of a sudden he's gonna let this White man with a phone get all up in his face yelling and cussing at him and telling him to get the fuck out? And he actually backs up and leaves???? Come on....that's a fucking rehearsed set up. White folks on BOTH sides get together and rehearse shit like this for the camera just to try to pull YOU in thinking you can do the same thing HE does, but it doesn't work for YOU like it does for him. You've seen video after video of White women cussing out cops, ripping up tickets and tossing them in out the window, etc...and the police just stand their LOOKING at them. You know it's was an act, meant to trick people into thinking THEY can do the same thing. For all you know they may be related to eachother. Don't believe that shit. You've seen White folks who were truly angry, their faces usually turn BEET RED. That's how I know they were just play-tending....lol. They were in eachother's face cussing and going on and their colors didn't even change. Like I said, AfroAmericans will be in the game soon enough. No need to rush into a burning building.

ProfD Do you think Rep. Omar was socially conditioned into marrying a white man? Subconsciously, yes. Consciously...very probable. Many if not most Somalis are already conditioned to find White people attractive and see them as ideal mates to hook up with for social success.

frankster Monroe Doctrine and Roosevelt Corollary are US Foreign Policy actions taken by the President that falls under their purview are neither illegal or unconstitutional. These aren't actions. They are as stated....DOCTRINES. Rhetoric conjured up to bestow confidence and JUSTIFY ambiguous actions. If the Senate and or Congress and or the Attorney General does not see it fit to bring impeachment Charges against The President... Then it would appear as if it does not raise to the level of a prosecutorial offense.....not criminal Just because a Prosecutor CHOOSES not to prosecute something, that doesn't mean it's not a crime. It simply means they choose not to, for any number of reasons. The President can now interpret that Law to suit his ends.......enforce apply how where and when Sure, if nobody bothers to oppose him. Obama wasn't allowed to do so. They called him a liar in the MIDDLE of one of his State of the Union addresses. Rights are Your Birthright....bestowed by Nature given by God If you believe GOD gave them...how do you explain man being able to take them away so easily? Including your "right" to liberty even your "right" to live? States are social political structures and institution..... Yes. Which are subordinate to the Federal government. Trump is a Maverick..... In spite of him African Americans will thrive Most of us will.

ProfD Right. Among ourselves, colorism isn't as bad nowadays but there are still situations where dark skin is not as well accepted. Black women are keeping the cosmetics industry afloat lightening themselves up. I used to be one of those dudes who preferred light skinned women also. This was back when Jane Kennedy and then Vanity was hot all the way up to Lisa Bonet and Jasmine Guy...lol. Now I find all shades attractive but I actually PREFER dark skinned women. What changed? My visit to Montreal Canada many years ago. I sat next to some Senegalese woman on the subway, got to know her, and that was IT...lol. 19 years of brainwashing and conditioning was REVERSED in a 5 minute subway ride....LOL. I have zero compassion for n8gglets that chose to f8ck with broke azz white people. They could've stayed home. But can't nobody at home give them a yellow baby with soft curly hair and hazel eyes...lol. Don't under estimate the level of conditioning and self-hatred so many of our people harbor.

ProfD There is no doubt that Tariq is extremely intelligent, entrepreneurial, and street savvy. He can't help BUT be successful. That why it's a little distressing to see him go down this road. A man that intelligent and charismatic develops a cult like following so he influences thousands of people.

ProfD Lol...yep. I BEEN knew that. And he's a non-Muslim too. I thought Muslim women had to marry Muslim men according to the religion. But like I tell some of the African women at work, no matter what religion some of yall CLAIM you are....when a White man shows up at your village some of you throw it out the window. Let's give it some time...lol. Speaking of there still being hope.............. I find it interesting that Ilhan Omar didn't didn't take her current husband's last name. Like Kamala Harris didn't take HER husband's last name. That tells me that both of their marriages were more for business or strategic purposes than for love and commitment.

aka Contrarian Sounds like somebody has replaced Pioneer with an AI entity. Ha ha ha....another funny one! ((chuckle chuckle)) We should also add comedienne to your resume! You can come up with some GOOD lines, sitting out there on the porch in those shades, grinning and holding up a metal bucket...lol. 😉

I knew she was smart and articulate or she wouldn't have gotten elected to Congress, but I didn't realize Rep. Omar was this attractive. Petite, professional, and conducts herself like a lady. Her and Jasmine Crockett need to get together and make SOMETHING happen....lol. I wouldn't mind seeing more of them in the future.
