Being fatherless is a problem?
No, it's a fukking unfortunate situation to be born into.
The circumstances that exacerbate the prevalence of lack of support structure for a child is the problem. Think about that for a minute. Really think about it.
Let me break down the political retrograde that has made up Western thought in our Country:
Step 1 - The institution, regardless of whether intentional or not, creates the circumstances that may result in the dysfunction of a particular group or sub-sect of society.
Step 2 - It actually results in the dysfunction of that particular group.
Step 3 - Society comes to a crossroad where it has to decide a) To acknowledge the institutions recklessness/negligence and correct the dysfunction or b) blame the actual group for the resulting dysfunction.
Step 4 - We've, as a society, decided choice b and have been blaming the group and ignoring Society's role.
Step 5 - Then, privileged members of said society blame the dysfunctional group for their deficiencies!
If that 5 step cycle of ignorance didn't strike a cord... Let me dumb it down again...
Landlord doesn't care about resident on 5th floor and ignores pleas to correct lead in paint. Years later, the family's children have learning disabilities because of the exposure and lack proper self-control and other higher order mechanisms. Landlord sees 5th floor child jumping off of porch damaging concrete and leaving lobby door unlocked even after being told not to many times.
Then the landlord has the audacity to say "Those little brats haven't been raised right! If they had a proper upbringing like respectful kids, they wouldn't be such fukking loser troublemakers! THEY ARE WHY I CAN'T GET ANY GOOD RESIDENTS TO RENT HERE!"
Don't come to me trying to find some discussion silver lining in George Karl's ignorant book selling gimmick by saying something to the effect of
- "...well, it brings up a good point, we do need to do better with teaching our kids manners."
- or "Yea but...being fatherless is a problem."
- or "I know it was only untaxed cigarettes but he died because he foolishly didn't do what the NYPD said."
The presence of fathers choosing not to be in their child's lives is a very important discussion we can have...in another thread in this marketplace of ideas. ANOTHER THREAD.(Meaning get off your lazy fukking ass and make that thread, I'll be your first poster. But you aren't though, goofy.)
But here, nikka? It's off-base as fukk considering Melo's father DIED from cancer and Melo has become a successful Black man with financial literacy, traditional family, articulates himself very well in interviews and is VP of NBPA.
You're out of line right now. You either can see it and fall back or make brehs suspicious of whether or not you're some fukking troll who wants to frustrate high cognitive Black people.
Which is it?
When he saw the whole decision shyt and seein them all control their own destinies and having the teams come to them then he got all mad but by then it was too tale. That nikka Melo is an analog shortsighted dude that never sees the big picture. He wanted to leave then cause he was mad he wasn't a free agent like Bron and them..
