Having the best part in the world is not gonna stop you from being snapped on. In fact, it would be a reason that you would get snapped on.

This must be a class issue. I don't know anyone in my peer group who is make that has never been married and wants to be. Has it occurred to you that this brother might be lying? Has he described any failed attempts? True. The latter, of course, leads directly to the former.

I'm sure he attracts a bevy or women, but chooses the non-FBA women.

I'm sure Barack agrees with y'all. Everyone has different tastes. LOL!

We called in "snapping." I'm not sure kids do this anymore. At least I hope not. My senior citizen home boys still do it, they can't help It was said it help prepare you for the onslaught of racism we would face as adults. Seeing how easily people are triggered today perhaps this is something to that idea. Indeed, the very need for the word "trigger" and trigger warnings is a function of how thin the skin is for Gen Y and younger.

Yeah ADOS have been leaving the US since emancipation.

Hey Chevdove I did not find that funny either

@Chevdove sure you’d be hard-pressed to find many ADOS who would actually pick up stakes here in America and permanently move anywhere else in the world? Sure they are people who do it. I know a few.. some do it because cost-of-living, easy access to women, or to escape incarceration. Most of these going to Panama, Dominican Republic, Thailand. As you know, our buddy Delano emigrated to Australia. Hey @Delano did you ever share why you moved down under? I met a bunch of folks in Ghana, mostly middle-aged women who emigrated from the United States.

So you are not surprised that sister can’t find a man? I’m not sure moving up in age would help very much as most of the decent men 10 to 15 years their senior are either already hooked up or don’t wanna be tied down (how many 45 year-old men do you see walking around never married claiming they can’t find Sista?) I think the problem is that their standards are unrealistically high. one sister was saying she wanted a brother that was 6’ 5” — a very small percentage of Americans are that tall. Still it would be interesting to see where they are today. Maybe they decided to leave the black male gay capital of America to where more heterosexual black men live.

@Chevdove as quiet as it is kept not everything can be found on the worldwide web. I find that conscious black stuff has been increasingly difficult to find given the way googles search engine, and social media algorithms work today. Might have to dig a bit deeper maybe he’s been written about in the book somewhere. I’ll be surprised if he still speaking in public given he’s almost 100 years old. @Pioneer1 can probably give you some information on his background. In the meantime, here is some background information provided by ChatGPT (take it with the grain of salt) Neely Fuller Jr. was born in 1929 in Muskogee, Oklahoma, during a time when racial segregation and discrimination were deeply entrenched in American society, especially in the South. Growing up in this environment significantly shaped Fuller’s awareness of racial issues and influenced his lifelong work in counter-racism theory. His early education took place within the segregated school system of Oklahoma, which provided a firsthand experience of the racial disparities that would later inform his life’s work. After completing high school, Fuller joined the U.S. military, serving during the Korean War era. His experiences in the armed forces, where he encountered a diverse array of people from various racial and ethnic backgrounds, further deepened his understanding of systemic racism and the dynamics of power and control. It was during his time in the military that Fuller began formulating his theories on white supremacy as a global system affecting all areas of people activity. Though not formally educated in academia beyond his early schooling, Fuller dedicated his life to self-education, research, and personal inquiry, which he channels into his writings and lectures. His primary work, The United Independent Compensatory Code/System/Concept, remains a seminal text, and Fuller is regarded as a crucial voice in the discussion of race relations and counter-racism, advocating for individuals to adopt a structured approach to dismantling racism at every level of society.

Always. And that’s true by definition. …okay. Since I have no idea who you voted for and what that person did not do I really can’t argue the point, but it does seem intellectually dishonest, but I’ll take you at your word. Whachu talking about Willis? I definitely want free medical insurance and I think every Americans should get it as wealthy as this country is. That also includes any benefits that can be provided to people who need them. as far as the rest of what you wrote, it diverges greatly from the original point, which was you feel that illegal immigrants get more benefits from America than Black people do. Again that is it idea that I don’t agree with. So are you telling me you would rather be an illegal immigrant from Mexico than a Black American…. Really?

I forgot all about Steve Harvey being a relationship expert. Something tells me that aspect of his life is not going to age well. All those women are fine and it’s hard to imagine they can’t find a man especially the first one. Whenever I see an attractive, intelligent, and well built woman who complains she can’t find a man I can’t help but put that on her. Maybe she should stop cheerleading And use that time to be a bit more proactive and intentional about meeting a man. I know places like Atlanta are harder for the sisters given the demographics but again homegirl is foine. I’m sure there are brothers that would. leave their wives and children for her All of those sisters would be in their late 40s by now something tells me they are probably all on their second marriages

i guess those people would be your evangelicals. that group may mean well, but they are not exactly rational are they?

right. All you have to do is pick the one that appears most to you. Fear is a valid reason for making a decision on which candidate to vote. The only time Fear shouldn’t be a factor is when you afraid you might get lynched for voting. You really can’t think of a single thing that has benefited Black people through the power of the vote… not even in a local election?

Did you look here @Chevdove? https://aalbc.com/authors/Neely+Fuller%2C+Jr.

Yeah, I dislike when black men are being singled out like this and being talked down to. I couldn’t even listen to the entire video @ProfD It sounds like Michele made a very sound case about how Trump presidency would endanger the lives of women. Great if that message resonates with people, it should affect their vote Again, just make the point it doesn’t have to be targeted to the specifically to black men. @Pioneer1 you fetishize Michelle how did you revive her message?

@Pioneer1 the distinction is not all that complicated. When people the word reality in the context, you’ve described they are talking about different perspectives on the same thing. Some people call those silos some people call them filter bubbles — different realities. It is not meant to mea literally different realities. It’s called a metaphor. I would be willing to bet money that taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius figures prominently, and your zodiac chart.

Absolutely not! that was what the smiley face was for. no two people have the same sense of humor, but yours is very different from mine. You seem to like cutesie comedy Like that mixed race couple with the baby. I’m sure a lot of people find that adorable, I’m just not one of them. The joke implied that the immigrants were illegal ones crossing the southern border. So no, I don’t think they’re getting benefits over Black Americans who like all Americans enjoy Social Security, low cost or free medical insurance, food assistance, housing assistance, unemployment benefits, and a variety of tax credits. Let me ask you this @Chevdove would you rather be who you are now, or an immigrant who just crossed the southern border illegally? Agreed. We should not bully each other nor call each other garbage or a basket of deplorable. You’re looking at it wrong @ProfD. Your focus on I or the individual is the problem. The strength of our vote comes from the collective. If the only people who voted were Klansman, what kind of country do you think that we would have? Yes, the kind of country we had before Black people were allowed to vote. Unfortunately, with our current set up those of us who refuse to vote for Trump, but can’t stomach voting for Kamala are only helping Trump. Obviously in the swing states this is crucial. Now, if you truly believe that there will be no difference between a Trump and Harris presidency and you don’t care who wins I can see you not voting. But it seems to me one would have to be pretty dim witted not to see a difference between the candidates and not to have a preference for one over the other.

What is the primary purpose of a spell @Delano ? Is it to cause some action, to predict one, or something else

View count of what @ProfD? Is this something that’s commonly done on other forms?

@Pioneer1 it is perfectly understandable for people to want to be comfortable. But if you are in that bourgeoisie class and not doing anything to help the brothers and sisters that need you?, then you are no use to your people. And that’s fine too if that’s the way you wanna live. Harriet Tubman didn’t have to keep going back. She could’ve lived “comfortably” as a free woman instead of continuing to risk her life to free others. I appreciate most of us are not built that way, but that’s what distinguishes a hero.

Okay help me out; what did this mean?

Then we’ll have to just agree to disagree. Given your name I assume you’re a woman, you should consider a Black man’s perspective on this issue. As far as anchors and friend groups, I did understand your definition. My personal experience simply does not support with it.

There were two groups of women on a girls night out (birthdays) but there were strays too. Virtually all twerked at one point or another There were women of all ages not just young ones. The other dudes were playing pool or otherwise seemingly uninterested…
