Power Season 6 (Official Thread) - No Spoilers

[NormanConnors]

Ramona ain't physically all that...but I love a tall...sophisticated black girl

 

[Jasonmask]

Knew there would be consequences for O dawg fukking that bytch

 

[Reece]

I think you meant "unrealistic"

But yeah, I co-sign everything. Like someone else said, after Jukebox kidnapped and almost killed him, he would've been scared straight. After finding out Kanan killed Sean, he would've been done fukking with Kanan. After Reina died, he would've been done with it all. After getting kicked out of school, he would've realized he was over his head. The Italians almost killed him, Ghost almost killed him, and Tommy almost killed him and yet he's still persistent in trying to be this big drug dealer. Why????

They keep trying to sell us this bullshyt like "it's in his blood," "it's genetics," "like father like son," "he was born to do this" etc. Like wtf, no he wasn't. People sell drugs when they got no real options and are struggling. This boy grew up privileged and never spent a day in the hood until he met Kanan. It's just ridiculous at this point.

Ehh....all that shyt applied to The Godfather and Michael Corleone (who grew up incredibly privileged) yet we love it. I can buy Tariq being born to be a street dude. They’re just not writing it well. With good writing, they could’ve easily made him Michael 2.0 off the Wire.

"That school ain't shyt compared to Choate"


Ignorant Riq be killing me

 

[Born2BKing]

Damn that was a dope ass episode.

 

[Captain Crunch]

Tasha: Riq you gotta stop dealing

One episode later

Tasha: I’mma teach you to be far better than Ghost

@Lord Scarf
This is the black Sons of Anarchy

 

[Cool Dr. Money]

Tasha scheme is all about getting revenge against ghost.

She never wanted him to go legit

fukking other men didn’t work

the divorce didn't work

Still hurt over the whole Angela fiasco

she blames him for Raina’s death

she always had aspirations of getting into the drug game on her own

Tasha the new Gemma

 

[MJ Truth]

Tasha ain't shyt. She really is a bad mother. Reminder that none of this would have happened if she let James go legit instead of being Ghost.

In reality, in this situation, Tasha is being a better parent than Ghost is. She’s dealing with the reality that her son is a liar and wants the crime lifestyle and is gonna stick with it regardless. Ghost is playing fantasy land thinking he can “change” Tariq the god.

What makes it even worse is the fact that he was just literally an accomplice to a murder (Proctor) that she has to know that the police are still investigating, but as someone mentioned earlier, Ghost is able to walk around and do whatever with no surveillance. The last thing she should be doing right now is teaching him the game.

I’m so tired of 007 Dre Bond and supervillain Jason

What kind of reality is better parenting to show a 16 year old kid the ropes of how to become a successful drug dealer?

Because he's doing it REGARDLESS. What good is letting him figure it out on his own? He's gonna get himself killed clearly. At least this gives him a chance of staying alive.

It's like if you had a son who wanted to be a boxer. You're better off getting him a good trainer than just saying "No, go to school" when you know they're gonna do it anyway.

What's the better option you recommend here? Clearly the "scared straight" approach ain't gonna work.

 

[Still FloW]

Just caught up to ep.5&6... boy this nikka Tommy is fuccked when Benny comes for him.. that nikka scares me, he gonna torture the fucc outta Tommy.

Ghost and Rashads back and forth gotta be goat tier writing.
