ProfD Posted June 8 Report Posted June 8 https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-06-07/paramount-home-depot Looks like the immigrant community has had enough of ICE rounding up folks for deportation. POTUS OJ has used Title X federal authority to bring in the National Guard to calm down the protests in LA. The Secretary of Defense has threatened to send in marines from the base in nearby Camp Pendleton. Of course, the governor of California doesn't appreciate his authority being overriden. LA mayor Karen Bass hasn't said much. This situation provides a glimpse into how this administration of the federal government will handle any uprisings under the guise of law and order. In another thread, I just mentioned how the immigrant community wasn't responding to the ICE raids leading to the deportations of *innocent* folks. Just like the wars and conflicts ongoing around the world, there's no need for Black folks to cape for these groups of people being targeted for one reason or another (illegal immigrants, foreign students, travel banned countries, etc.). They didn't stand up for us. Let them hold their own water.
ProfD Posted June 9 Author Report Posted June 9 On cue, Republicans are blaming Democratic leaders in California of provoking and allowing the protests to happen there. Of course, LA is a sanctuary city. That catches a lot of flak from the Right too. None of the employers are caping for their immigrant workers. Id imagine the deported are easy to replace.
Pioneer1 Posted June 9 Report Posted June 9 And on cue, you have Latinos now calling on Black folks to come help them out:
ProfD Posted June 9 Author Report Posted June 9 9 hours ago, Pioneer1 said: And on cue, you have Latinos now calling on Black folks to come help them out: Brotha Phillip Scott excellently breaks it down like a shotgun. There is no need for a Black and Brown alliance. It is not beneficial to us. Black folks will be better off upon accepting the reality that as Dr. John Henrik Clarke put it...."we have no friends". Friendships are cool if/when folks want to hang out and play with each other. Otherwise, people (individuals and groups (tribes) are better served forming strategic alliances based on their needs, wants and desires i.e. interests. Look no further than countries, business folks and politicians, etc. They call themselves *friends* but it's really a cooperative arrangement as means to an end. If/when Brown folks have anything of *interest* to Black folks, we can chop it up. It's business. Don't take it personal.
Pioneer1 Posted June 9 Report Posted June 9 One of the major problems isn't the Latinos themselves but the LOVE so many of our people have for Latinos and how they look. A lot of our people know what Latinos don't like them, but they are SEXUALLY attracted to them because their skin is usually light and their hair tends to be straight and that sexual attraction overrides their common sense and ego. They'll put up with abuse, insults, and disrespect hoping that they can find "that one" who will love them and accept them. Too many of our people have this mentality, and it makes them vulnerable to be taken advantage of. If most of our people TRULY loved who they were and how they looked, they would have no desire what so ever to "unite" with anybody else except our own. Why? It wouldn't be desired, anyway.

People are attracted to what they like for different reasons. I don't believe it is necessarily tied to hating their own skin. Low self-esteem is the #1 reason folks are abusive and/or abused in personal relationships. Otherwise, it makes zero sense to stay in toxic situation. Otherwise, Black folks don't love Latinos or any other group of people to their own detriment. Despite the murder rate and other ill sh8t, Black folks are compassionate and forgiving to a fault. Our people will put on the cape for those who either mean more harm than good and/or they offer no benefit to us.
Pioneer1 Posted June 9 Report Posted June 9 ProfD Many of our people actually LOVE White folks. They love how White folks look, how they act, and love them....period. But it's not "cool" to admit that these past few generations because they'd be exposed as self-hating sell outs and looked at kind of funny. So they often shoot for the next "best" thing, people who are ALMOST White. Like Latinos, Arabs, etc... They get as close to White as they can without actually getting WITH a White person. Kind of like how a Black man claims to love Black women but only dates the lightest almost "whitest" women he can find...lol. If you only date women who look like this, yo ass love White women...lol.....just admit it. A lot of bruthaz don't want to just go ahead with who they REALLY want because of community stigma. My point is, a lot of our people are really in love with White folks and Latinos are closer to White....so they love them by proxy.

I don't believe enough Black folks love Latinos by proxy to force a Black and Brown alliance.
Troy Posted June 10 Report Posted June 10 Pioneer you realize not all Latinos and Arabs are light skinned. All this talk about black men being in love with white people or light skin women with straight hair is anachronistic. Modern people have moved beyond this type of thinking people are free to love whoever the heck they wanna love, and sometimes those women have light skin, but more often they have brown skin because brown skin people dominate the Earth.
ProfD Posted June 10 Author Report Posted June 10 Attraction and s8x is such a thing to brotha @Pioneer1 that in a thread about ICE raids and a non-existent Black/Brown alliance he went into a diatribe about proxy access to white folks through Latinos. Pioneer1, here's a thought to create a Black/Brown alliance....you can round up a few illegal Latinas and provide them with shelter, food and clothing. They might cooperate too. 1
Pioneer1 Posted June 11 Report Posted June 11 ProfD I don't believe enough Black folks love Latinos by proxy to force a Black and Brown alliance I'm not sure how many either, but it's not totally up to the Black folks who love them. An alliance is a two-way street and all parties must agree to come together and stand up for eachother. I don't believe there's enough Latinos willing to do this with Black people anyway. Attraction and s8x is such a thing to brotha @Pioneer1 that in a thread about ICE raids and a non-existent Black/Brown alliance he went into a diatribe about proxy access to white folks through Latinos. Even our late great brother Neely Fuller Jr. said that next to the survival instinct, the SEX instinct is the strongest motivational force among humans. Most people are thinking about sex. Either the sex that they want to have. The sex that they are having. Or if they are too old or unable...the sex they USED TO have, lol. Pioneer1, here's athought to create a Black/Brown alliance....you can round up a few illegal Latinas and provide them with shelter, food and clothing. They might cooperate too. Been there, done that...when I was living in Arizona....lol. Troy Pioneer you realize not all Latinos and Arabs are light skinned. Man, why are you asking me this? All this talk about black men being in love with white people or light skin women with straight hair is anachronistic. Modern people have moved beyond this type of thinking It's beyond common sense that many of our brothers (and many of our sisters) are obsessed with light skin and straight/wavy hair. If you deny this....I'm not sure what else to say. people are free to love whoever the heck they wanna love Not if they're brainwashed. They aren't free...because their thinking is RESTRICTED and BOUNDED by racist conditioning. If someone controls the RADIUS or CIRCUMFERENCE of your thinking and limits them, then they can control the DIAMETER of your knowledge and keep that limited too.
ProfD Posted June 12 Author Report Posted June 12 These people cannot keep Black folks out of their minds. They keep bringing up the 1992 LA riots sparked by the Rodney King azz whupping and 2020 protests after the murder of George Floyd. There's no comparison to Black protests whether it is ICE raid protests or college campuses protesting the Israel/Palestine conflict. That doesn't stop some media talking heads from going down the whatabout-ism path in trying to compare the current situations to past Black protests. There is no comparison. I'm just hoping Black folks will continue to stand down and mind their own bizness as these other groups of people hold their own water.
Pioneer1 Posted June 15 Report Posted June 15 ProfD I'm just hoping Black folks will continue to stand down and mind their own bizness Me too. Just like the Palestinian/Israeli situation a few months ago; they just keep trying to get Black folks "involved" in the situation. Both sides wanted us on "their" side. They know WE'RE the ones who make a protest "legit". They also know we're the only ones who can make shit JUMP OFF...lol. All of those people protesting in Los Angeles. Hundreds of thousands..... But no matter how hard they try, they just wizzle out like a dud firecracker...lol. They don't have the "fight" in them that Black Americans have so they barely make the news. The police know this, which is why the police in California are constantly scanning the crowds looking for Black participants! All of those White and Latino people protesting and throwing rocks and cussing....but they find the ONE Black person holding an ICE sign and they'll rush to tackle her and lead her away in cuffs. Whites and Latinos have been all over Los Angeles protesting and blocking traffic and spray painting graffiti but when the Marine come in, LOOK who they end up cuffing and detaining: Exclusive: US Marines carry out first known detention of civilian in Los Angeles, video shows | Reuters He was probably the ONLY nigga out there in a crowd of thousands.....but they managed to find and cuff HIM. And look at the Latino officer standing there grinning as his ass Black people need to stay the fuck OUT of these other people's affairs. We have enough problems to deal with.

About a thousand people or less most times. They're only protesting in a 1 square mile area. LA is 500 square miles. The media is exaggerating. The government response with national guard and marines is over the top too. 1 hour ago, Pioneer1 said: Black people need to stay the fuck OUT of these other people's affairs. We have enough problems to deal with. Absolutely. As the late Dick Gregory mentioned in his wisdom, thiis isn't about Black folks. Of course, there will be a few token n8gglets who think they're *other* and cape for them.

I kept seeing reports that the protests were confined to the downtown area near city hall. Occasionally a few of them would wander out on to the free way and make people angry....lol. They keep trying to compare it to the 1992 Rebellion. But that ain't "it".
