You would think Negros from the south would be the last people to support a Donald Trump. @Pioneer1 You talking about Hershel Walker with lip gloss? Leave him alone. That Brother is my age and he has a head full of thick jet black hair. I saw that brother run 100 meter dash once. When he said he would run people over that Brother ain't lying. The rest of the stuff I'm not so sure about... It is common knowledge that Donald does not treat all people like VIPs we know he beat countless vendors and contractors out of payments he owed them. we know he weaseled many students out of money with that bogus school he setup. I don't know if Hershel believed everything he was reading or how much he was paid to read it, but that was hard to watch. It was just as hard as it was to watch Jim Brown in the Oval office with the Kayne West. ----- The 2nd Brother was interesting until started the bullshit equating the old Republican Party of the middle 19th century with the Republican party 200 years later is tiring.

Man....that's another sexy older woman...lol. She's 69 years old! Daniel America is a nation of Aspirational people. In spite of and because of his flaws people can relate to President Trump. Those who kiss his ass kiss it for the same reason most people tend to kiss the asses of wealthy people and billionaires.....out of false hope. You see, most people have a subconscious belief that if they are nice to rich people and get on their good side then those rich people will like them and give them some of their wealth. Like Lazarus who stands around under the table of a rich man begging for crumbs and hoping for more....... "If I'm nice enough to him, maybe Mr. Billionaire will like me enough to slide me a million or two!!!" But that's not how it works. Most Americans support the rich because they think THEY will one day get rich, so they don't want to shit on them. The fact is most people aren't going to be rich but they CAN live a much better and more comfortable life depending on who is in offices and what economic policies are in place.

Pioneer1 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Daniel I'm not going to argue with you over the laws of Karma and the value of giving charity. I do believe that one of the keys to accumulating and keeping wealth IS to give a lot of charity because of the laws of Karma that many wealthy people understand and practice. However I WILL say to you that if you're giving charity with the EXPECTATION to get more money in return based on the "laws of karma"....is it really charity? Perhaps it should be considered an INVESTMENT since you are doing it to get a bigger return instead of helping people. Troy Not having health insurance does not sound like a benefit to me. It's not. Like I've said for years when White Republicans are for or against something they KNOW why they are for or against it even if they don't tell you why. But when Black Republicans are for or against something....they are for or against it ONLY because they are imitating White Republicans...lol. For example, Obamacare and Universal healthcare...... Most poor White Republicans are against Obamacare and Universal healthcare EVEN THOUGH it will help them. Why? Because it will help too many AfroAmericans and Latinos too, in their opinion. That's the REAL reason they oppose it. For them racism comes FIRST. They will put their own health at risk and even die in order to promote White Supremacy. Most AfroAmericans who oppose Obamacare and Universal healthcare....on the other hand...simply do so in an imitation of White Republicans without knowing the real reasons behind it. Same thing with going back to work or working without a mask during the Pandemic......... Most poor White Supremacists don't care if they get sick or die, their main concern in promoting White supremacy. So if Agent Orange says go back to work and don't worry about a mask....they just follow orders and do it! They don't care if they get sick, spread it, or even die....their allegiance is to White Supremacy! Many Black folks...on the other hand....see this behavior and ASSUME because they see Caucasians doing it, it must be OK! So they start imitating it and often end up paying the price. Btw...

Pioneer1 Posted August 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Troy Too many people have to do unwise things to survive. The paradox is that these very same people fight to maintain the systems that force them to make unwise choices. Not only is that a great point, you know what a good example of this is? I know a lot of working class AfroAmerican and Latina mothers who don't have day-care and relied on SCHOOL to take care of their children while they were out working. So because of this some of them actually LIKE TRUMP AND THE LOCAL REPUBLICANS! Why? Because while the local Democrats want to make sure the infection rate declines before opening up the schools the Republicans are saying "fuck it....open back up!" "OK guys.....let's open everything back up and make some money!!!!" I'm telling them, the reason there are no free daycare centers in America and the reason you have to work 2 and 3 jobs just to make a living is BECAUSE of Conservative Republicans! I also tell them that they don't care about your health or if you or your children get sick, they just want you to come back to work for them! But many of them can't figure that out right now. All they know is they are in a bind because their jobs are calling many of them back to work and they don't have anywhere to leave their children. Can you IMAGINE what's going through the mind of poor working mom with school-age children if: 1. The Republicans were responsible for schools opening back up while the Democrats tried to keep them closed. 2. Agent Orange sends her a $1,500 stimulus check along with all of her low-income friends right before November Now who do YOU think she's gonna vote for, if she votes?

As a driver my real classification is Independant Contractor. My earnings are over $100K per year. Because I am not a W2 worker I am able to keep more of that money. The move in CA is the exploitation of the drivers. It reduces their income and provides them with benefits they may not use. I am unapologetic about the goal of earning money from my writing. Robert Kiyosaki points out that he is a Best Selling Author not the best Author. The Best Author is yet to be discovered and might not derive any financial gain from their efforts. My goal is to be compensated in greater proportion than the Joy I bring. I am doing that by adding value to the efforts of others. Hence my reading and writing the book reviews. I am improving my knowledge of my genre. I am helping others authors increase their exposure. I am finding compatible people to co-promote together. The sales are important so I can demonstrate to investors they can get a return on their investment. Their investments will help me hire other people. Back to Uber. I started 3 years ago. I didn’t have a car so I rented one. After my first month I was able to put down on my own car which I rented out to another driver while I still drove my rental. At one point I was responsible for three other people earning income because of my direct actions. I now because of a series of unfortunate events and unforced errors, I am down to one care I own and one I rent. I don’t call that exploitation. But my goals is be able to employ others and provide them with opportunities.

How many slaver owners, slave ship owners, ect.....were actually paid back in full for their evil and wickedness? While they tortured and killed children, how many of THEM lived to be 80 and 90 years old and died in their sleep? Part of the psychological damage that has been done to many of our people by religion (Caucasian religion) is that it gave them the false hope that it's enough to sit back and WATCH evil people continue to be evil because "one day" they'll be punished for their misdeeds.

Yes I said it. That doesn’t mean that your attack on the essential nature of Uber was based on my making the statement and not the fact of what Uber does or the States Government deemed it so. I just didn’t include the background for making the statement. It’s my fault because I took it for granted it was common knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 "Attack," don't you think that is hyperbolic? You are starting to act like a crazed liberal Again, you are operating on the presumption that Uber is "essential," as a result, all the conclusions you draw from this will be flawed in my view. Now, you are now saying that some government bureaucrat has deemed Uber to be essential. I'm operating on the actual definition of essential not the government's classification of "essential." Again, you are exhibiting more liberal tendencies, but relying on the government to tell you what is "essential." Are you sure you are a conservative?

Attack was the appropriate word. Your antiBigBusiness stance tints your responses in a manner which conveys disdain. You can’t see it because of the blind spot you have developed because of it. It’s not just me. You are saying that the Political Entities that have enforced the definition of Uber being essential as Flawed. Take it up with them. I stated a fact compared to your opinion. You can try to justify your ignorance but it doesn’t matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted September 6, 2020 Report Share Posted September 6, 2020 You don't know what "fact" means; just because big government, according to you, said Uber is essential does not make it a fact. My "Antibigbusiness" does not tint my position. It informs it. Uber has every incentive to keep drivers like you on the road. Your government decided, apparently, to declare Uber essential. This increases the spread of covid. Do you know how many people you infected and God forbid, killed? All so the uber can stay in business...

Do you know how many people you infected and God forbid, killed? All so the uber can stay in business... This statement is insane. New York City has virtually no cases at this time. Uber and ride shares and taxis have been operating throughout the Pandemic. Hence not a variable. There is no reliance on Big Government. You don’t understand Conservatism as it pertains to average Black people. The objective is to keep government from being overreaching. The only reason Essential is relevant is because it was what enabled me to be able to see the real world unfiltered by TV or Cable media with my own eyes. Paradigms enlighten and imprison simultaneously. And Troy the fact was the Government deemed it essential because it saved more lives than you or I will know. Transportation is essential especially during times of crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can't have a meaningful conversation on this subject if you believe this. I mean other statements you've previously indicative of this too, but this last one is too absurd for me to even waste my time to asking you defend.
