My honest answer? Somehow get social media back, specifically twitter and TikTok. Also need more black wealth in crypto, not those altcoins... Im talking exchanges etc. Basically some of these black billionaires need to get in the game otherwise crypto will be used to create some pseudo jim crow type situation. Dont believe me? Take a look at the whole "network states" concepts that El0n and Th*l keep trying to push. But yeah, we gotta take back the narrative on social media. El0n buying twitter changed the game for WS. The propaganda machine is wild, and it DOES spilll out in real life. My next prediction is that homelessness will become criminalized nationally. How do I know this? Because its the new thing these white boys been crying about on twitter. Like, you can see in real time when they're pushing a psyop over there, reminds me of the time i saw the whole anti CRT movement build over there.

we are beyond all of this, we cant compete with this attack financially

Yeah I mentioned this earlier. A lot of this was avoidable tho. I remember sounding the alarm back in 2021 when I saw a lot of this play out. All nikkas had to do was tell their relatives to stay off twitter for a minute, otherwise dude wouldnt have bought that app :dead: . They (stan twitter, new black twitter, etc.) made the block hot and put a target on black folks. As WS on truth social and Gap started to leave for Rumble, some of them migrated to twitter due to the entertainment they got from the black twitter shenanigans. I watched this shyt play out in real time too.

Not in this lifetime. Not without people like Robert Johnson and Byron Allen ECT being in these spaces.
Whats this supposed to mean? Do Robert Johnson or Byron Allen hit their pockets in any way? Wouldnt surprise me if some weird allegations about them comes out, just to knock them down a peg/defang them.

We don't meet the attack head on, but instead seek to create our own spaces and pool our resources to support those spaces. We have the funds to fight, but we have to actually work together to do it.

"At US$910 billion in 2019 to a projected US$1.7 trillion in 2030, Black and African American-buying power continues to grow in the United States as a powerful economic bloc, matching the gross domestic product of Mexico, Canada, and Italy"


So our people have to move beyond the complaining about the issue into the theory crafting of solutions. We also have to actually be willing to work with each other, that means not being so quick to attack our own over silly shyt, to accomplish what we need. As what I posted above, we are an economic powerhouse that is just not focused enough and unified enough to do what needs to be done.

I dont see this happening. I see them changing what kind of immigration will be allowed. They will likely promote legal immigration from certain countries (mostly European or Asian ones) while getting rid of illegal immigration or making it less feasible. Also, you forgot a third option my man "assimilate and throw your people under the bus". I see this happening on a massive scale given black Gen Z and their habits.
Let me ask you something.

If you lived in a country with universal Healthcare, public college, a higher minimum wage on average, and the knowledge that police won't empty a clip into you at a traffic stop or a person armed with a machine gun won't shoot up a public gathering that you want to attend or your child's school...

Why the fukk would you EVER choose to leave it for a country where you have none of the benefits you're accustomed to and additional danger?

You see, the media and democrats have adopted republican framing around immigration. The framing is this:
America is an open nation that takes people in out of generosity and that generosity is being abused, therefore it's no more Mr. Nice guy!

The reality is that it is not easy to get into America because for DECADES America has denied applications from people who are not the elites in their country. America wants doctors, pharmacists, engineers, and business owners bringing their talents and money or at the very least, elites who can pay the tuition for American universities and colleges. Google, Microsoft and Nvidia, three companies worth TRILLIONS of dollars are run by whom? Immigrants. Note how they do not have immigrants speaking on the process of how they got into America whenever the issue is raised in the news.

Note how the b roll footage they use is poor looking people sitting at a lobby or poor looking immigrants at the border. That framing is very intentional.

This moron that white people just voted for does not understand how trade deficits or tariffs work and NOBODY asks him to explain that to the public because he is legitimately too stupid and addled with dementia to actually give a rational explanation.

And the media just accepts that out of class solidarity and moves on. It is "I'm white and I know best" who is most primed to accept that framing? White people and their c00ns.

I was hoping he would return and actually give some answer to this question. It seems all of the discussions stop at the "we should be scared" part, and never moves into the what we should do about it part.

My answer is I dont know.

Right so how do we fight this?


we are beyond all of this, we cant compete with this attack financially

We have never been able to financially compete in this country, but we can get ourselves together and then leverage others:

1. Minimize social media and be VERY cautious of news you receive from those outlets. Between the Twitter ownership and advanced AI I can see them deploying deepfakes to elicit a certain reaction from the populace, spread disinformation. Verify something off social media before you take it as gospel.

2. Minimize your data footprint. They are tracking and profiling us with social media usage and other things so while you can't hide or go off grid, if you minimize your footprint you can be less of a target for hostile actors, especially racists trying to dox or whatever you:

First, make all social media private and stop posting unnecessary shyt or data about all your habits/movements
Second, take the social media apps off your phone. I only use social media on a laptop with no geotracking and a covered camera
Third, contact the main data brokers and opt your data out (there are tutorials online about this)
Fourth, type in your name and home address and name and phone and find the sites that list your private info online and contact them to take it down. Almost all will and it may take a few hours but nobody needs your info out there easily collectible.
Fifth, put your house in a trust to remove your name/address online

3. If there is any part of your family's life DEPENDENT on direct federal government aid, game an alternative now. Nothing is perfect but if they crush the buildings at least you will have a plan (unlike 99% of people)

4. Become active in a local Black community group. Not the old ones like NAACP or whatever but a group in your community where you can network and get support with like minded brehs/brehettes. You can't save everyone but small organized groups can save themselves

5. Be careful of public demonstrations---they will be scanning faces for professional or legal retaliation and may even want to test run firing on protestors like in the 60s so while we need to fight, finding ways that are effective and not as easy to hit back again like protests can be key.

Also need more black wealth in crypto, not those altcoins... Im talking exchanges etc.

Ehh...I am not sure if this is as good as it sounds. I say this as someone who was involved in BTC very early (and sold way too early like a dumbass). All these coins are manipulated by whales and there is no floor for the drop in value if they collapse. The big holders are the early investors, miners, hedge funds, and rich people/governments. Unless Black folks know the best coin to pile into early I don't see how this can help.

The fascists are raising money in pump and dump for their plans and unless we think a Black elite should pump and dump the masses, not sure this can help us. I would encourage Black folks to put 5-10% of their wealth in precious metals. Start with silver since it is cheaper then get some gold.

Now maybe if cash was outlawed and we needed a medium of exchange outside the monetary system a stable crypto could help but that is treading water.

Yeah I mentioned this earlier. A lot of this was avoidable tho. I remember sounding the alarm back in 2021 when I saw a lot of this play out.

Black folks talk too much online. I agree here but these plans were long in the making. Thiel and Sacks have been moving like this for years. The big surprise is that Elon and a bunch of other SV elite who wouldn't fukk with Trump in 2016 became MAGA for their own interests. Black Twitter alone didn't cause this. There is a big fight amongst American oligarchs and we are collateral damage.

I also think the BLM protests scared/pissed them off more than Twitter since we shook society.

Excellent list of ideas and actions. Tried to rep you, but I am not able to do it again yet.
