Yea, you can fukk off and die for all I care.
If you not gon read the article. Fux you . Yall get so emotional and dont know shyt about the world and when you're being manipulated.

So. Say what you please. But if you not informed fux your opinion.

Muafuxas misleading my people and letting them go thru the same shyt over and over again thinking they making progress. Fux you. Misdirecting our energy.

Bunch of groupthink clowns.

Race lynching and Christian Evangelicalism: performances of faith:

I'm talking about psychology and ritual abuse. How the fux was George floyd death not a public lynching, for us to witness. Then a LGBTQ (pretending to be BLM) mob pop up during the unrest trying to get Us to burn down the areas we live in.

Then Come tell me that wasnt the theme of Lovecraft Country and The Watchmen. Both of which invoked Our ancestors murders in Tulsa to bring about trauma in our minds. Themes of sacrificing black men(using their deaths as part of ritual), and clashes with police. They even thru the blatant LGBTQ hijack in LoveCraft Country before our eyes.

What got me was seeing groups of non-black kids holding Black Lives Matter signs and shyt walk right past a elderly black homeless man laying on the street. Dude looked like he was in a terrible position. You would think they would have at least acknowledged his existence while holding up signs that pointed out their blatant hypocrisy and the irony of the situation.

Not even batting an eye, it’s like he was invisible. That showed me all I needed to know, all that “racial solidarity” bullshyt is plain bullshyt fukk em and the racists who birthed em :unimpressed:
June was hot for a minute, but everything started getting muddy when other groups joined in with their own agendas. shyt went from "Burn this shyt down" to
"We're all in this together/ Love conquers hate". :what: What the fukk?

I bowed out of all protesting once I start seeing “All Black Lives Matter” or “(Insert) Black Lives Matter” signs. That and seeing folks trying to monetize them. All those George Floyd tees being sold and not a lick going to that mans family. I personally couldn’t fukk with them anymore after I started seeing the pivot

We all saw what happened with George Floyd ( R.I.P) we also witnessed how far the police are willing to take things . My question is these protests went on for 2-3 months , what have we achieved since then ?

how do we prevent this from happening again ?

for example:
We saw what happened in Buffalo when 2 cops pushed an elderly man , which resulted in his head hitting the concrete . To me it seems like everything that happened this past summer during us protesting against police brutality is being swept under the rug again .




what happened...

how society works... you cultivate momentum in a public space and use it to make moves. which was happening via legislations tabled and talks about diverting cop budgets. THEN the summer got sprayed up with gun violence. and all that cultivated momentum evaporated damn near instantaneous. people did more to prove a case for not defunding police. Police even facilitated it by stepping back initially. when the violence ramped up they looked validated in the eyes of general society.

before anyone catches feelings understand that's how society shifts, I'm speaking from the perspective of general society. a crucial timing and window for change closed by unecesary violence which contradicted the scenes of solidarity in protest.

people move like the beat of a drum changes. do the most when you have all of their attention. it's gonna prove hard to impossible to get any meaningful change while gun violence amongst brehs is escalating. protests are an appeal to people outside of your community. no matter how you look at it. those people are not permanent supporters. they pivot constantly. so the situation is at an impasse. the people outside of the Black community fear gun violence more than they want to see police reform so they didn't vote on strong reforms everywhere. hence society will be dead locked on this issue and the momentum is lost.

Still doesn’t change the fact that there need to be accountability, I can’t be out there driving in hoping that I won’t be pull over by a cop having a bad day .
Guns will always be here , as sad as it may sounds violence will be here . But why should a public servant ( that I am paying for ) can have some sort of rage and take it out on me ? ( knock on wood )

There needs to be accountability sure.

But we all know it isn’t going to happen and more innocent black people will be killed. You might be one of them. Any of us could be a hashtag any minute. Police could kick in your door and shoot you dead right now. Claim self defense and be hugged, kissed, and have their hair brushed by black judges and police officers.

It is simply a game of chance and because as humans we seek comfort and avoid problems it won’t be solved.

I’m not some revolutionary, but I’m pointing out how things really are. The reality of things. Throughout history change has never been given, it has been fought for.

And as black people, we already in the most compromised positions to begin with face the worse consequences when we go up against the system.

didn't say it changes anything.... it's not a statement of how I feel but an observation on society.

keep saying it and I'll say it again. protests are not done to raise awareness amongst your OWN people. if you understand that then you understand the point of my post.

In, because I would love to hear of any meaningful change that came out of these protests. I became incredibly bitter about the protests at one point...I marched in May and by mid June I was disgusted by what the protests had become-- a cloutfest and a stage for nonblack people to roleplay being oppressed

I keep saying before we break these crackers literally, we need to break them financially.
yes and the police are not a traditional business how do you break them outside of defunding them?

this is not like Papa johns where people can just stop going to the restaurant and their numbers take a hit

when they go to vote on those cops having neutered powers city to city, everyone in there is not in solidarity even if they are opposed to police brutality. this is what happened in real time wherever those police budget cuts got tabled they passed in very few places. they hit council months down the line and the atmosphere was already different, 2020 was a long year.

What happened was exactly what they wanted to happen.

Black folks got so emotional and scared from the constant media images that they voted for a former segregationist and crafter of the Crime Bill to come save them.

They were so emotional and so afraid that they gave this white man more of their votes than the first Black president. Without getting anything specific in return to address the source of their fear.


-BLM grifted the bag for the white LGBT community.

-Stacey Abrams gets her awards, trophies and head pats.

-Wall Street finna eat.

-More wars and colonization overseas

-Cops still harming Black folks with no accountability or repercussions.

- And now they can use the violence and property destruction as an excuse to hire MORE police.



Flawless execution by the White Liberal once again.
