Do Y'all Hear People Talking About "FBA" And "Tethers" In Real Life?

[alpo]

@alpo Carol City?

You know where this at?

Nah

You buried the lede. Nobody asked your opinion on my ethnic group. I don't speak on yours, you don't speak on mine. That's respect. Anything else is overstepping boundaries. Brooklyn is not America. I moved out here from Harlem and, though I see how you could be confused, that is not reality.

Both my IQ and education are immaculate. Don't think nobody peeped you calling us ignorant nikkas.

Fat joe wants a word with you.


It’s just about respect. I remember seeing A lot of commentators on tv will discount racism at black Americans expense. And over time you do the research and see that commentator has only been here for one generation. I think that’s where the “tether”thing comes from. But there are also black Americans (officer Tatum) that will gladly tap dance as well.

Overall as long as we all show each other respect and don’t dismiss the contributions made from each group it’s all love. I don’t think pan Africanism on a large scale can work unless everyone can see financially it’s beneficial for all.

But working with a diverse set of black people with the same mindset no matter the background has def paid off for me at least.

My actual point was his boy who did 2 bids (also FBA) shut him down when he hustled and got a decent paying jobs living in the quiet part of Yonkers, but blasted him when he was complaining about immigrants taking a job from him.
They both gainfully employed, working full time, and said whatever immigrant is taking your job, it must not pay well.

Thats when I knew the "immigrants are taking our jobs" angle doesn't go very far amongst blacks in all circles, FBA or immigrant. Well, at least in NY.

NY FBA are not a good example of FBA sentiment, as has been shown by the fallout of the Drake-Kendrick beef. Our localized confusion is just that, localized. Luckily, I never been confused bc yall think I'm one of the good ones and say WILD out of pocket shyt to me.

Furthermore, no disrespect to homie, but I would never prioritize the opinions of a bm who hasn't read Baldwin, Woodson, or any of our intellectual powerhouses. He don't know shyt and just happy to be there and free.

 

[BunchePark]

Nah

Off 37th

This like a block from that address Myron posted talkin bout pull up when he was acting like he be round there

Where in CC you at in relation to the stadium

 

[HarlemHottie]

I know why they are upset and worried about some Black Americans pushing for Delineation, but their pride will not allow them to admit it or admit that their ethnicities were the ones who started this whole mess. Our ancestors worked to open the doors for them, and many of them came and made sure that the White man understood they were not one of us and would not side with us. Some of our people have finally seen enough, and decided to give them what they want, but no longer allow it to be under their control.

Yep. They have good reason to be worried too, you see how slick they are with the disrespect, right? Welp.

 

[RealCrownHeights]

Negged. Harlem is gentrified and they used Africans to do it. This is our relationship. They use you as tools of our oppression and you're happy about it.

Harlem is gentrified to due Africans is one of the funniest thing's I ever heard. Yes, get some rest. Go around Harlem and ask any native Harlem resident who they would rather have, African's or white people. I would like to get a source on the video's you claimed, as Idk what law was passed that said this black man from Barbados can buy a house but not a Black American, please show me that law.

Once again, and I like you and i think you are highly intillegent, but you seem hurt and maybe annoyed by some instances you've had with African and Caribbean's growing up, and i'm sorry that is the case and that they disrespected Black Americans fight and struggle due their ignorance, but a house divided cannot fall.

I think one of the biggest social examples we have of this is prison lol. In human's most vulnerable environment, blacks (west indians, Africans) stick together because they understand, fukk all that where you from shyt, we are black. Every other race has their internal bickers but this new agenda from CIA Nasheed is one of the sickest i've seen.

Love and blessings sister. I still fukk with Harlem heavy and would be there often if it wasn't so far and if y'all all be outside till 4am on a Tuesday

I can count the non-FBA I've known (out of hundreds) who show respect on a single hand. Pan Africanism is a non starter under these conditions.

And Fat Joe can suck a dikk, no homo.

 

[10bandz]

Tether and fleer is internet shyt


The general concept of a black American identity is talked about in real life though.

 

[Ɀoᥱɣ]

No, but I assume that's a thing. I've seen people claim they are mixed when they are clearly black but other than that

Lets be real, how many blacks folk really read the likes of James Baldwin, Woodson in great detail? America in general has this huge anti intellectualism problem the last 25 years or so. I doubt many anti immigrant grifters even read like that, either.

My point is that it is not popular among black people who are MAKING MOVES and only gaining popularity among a handful of people who don't read very much.

Be careful of who you listening to. The brehs that are the loudest, are always the brokest and do non constructive shyt with their time.

[MoveForward]

So in your lifetime you've had a Jamaican, African, and Haitian woman all tell you the same exact thing?

I’ve heard similar things throughout my life. I remember Paul Mooney telling a joke about West Indians thinking they’re better than us because white people dropped them off first. Y’all like to feign ignorance and minimize when people talk about their experiences with immigrant blacks.

 

[Won Won]

No

FBA
Tethers
Bussy
Tariq
Kevin Samuels
Umar
Charleston White

Never heard any of this outside the internet, and my group of friends wouldn’t even know what or who these are

 

[B86]

No because I don't associate with anybody goofy enough to be watching Tariq videos or spewing dumb shyt they read online, in real life...
