If someone other than you has to liberate you, then you haven't been liberated. You've exchanged one master for another.
This is why I say you gotta let certain people burn. They aren't wheat they're chaff.
There's a fundamental gulf that I don't see ever being bridged between blacks who have a "self-sufficiency, do for self mentality" and blacks with a "messiah come save me mentality".
There's no guarantee the "do for self" will succeed, and yes the work will be long, but there's always that chance. The other side will always beg, scream and plead for someone to do something for them. They're locked on autopilot. Their dependency is a constant. Who's pimping/running them...that's the variable that changes over time.
If given the choice of playing offense or defense I choose offense. Why? Because no matter how lacking the offense might be, all you need is a 1% chance to succeed. When playing defense, you need 100% (because that 1% of failure will get you fukked up).
