So no one is gonna actually address the question and instead just hurl insults? What do you think the average 9-5 black person says if you ask them this question.


the problem isn't the question itself but the motive behind the person asking

Republicans must love seeing messages like this ...

I’ve been a fan of dude since prolly 05

Since he was on MTV Made

Since his first podcast EVER

Even met dude in person


This shyt really blew me tho

You have freak progrssive candidates out here trying to change shyt

N he says some dumb shyt like that
I'm the same way. Ever since I've followed him the Don't Vote campaign is the biggest blunder I've ever seen him partake in.

No. I believe we live in a simulation. The world looks flat to us. The pictures of the globe earth are fakes done by the elites who run this world who don't want people to know the truth about our world being a simulation.

You ever seen the movie "The 13th Floor"?

Watch it. Its tells the truth about our world. There is a great scene in that movie when the character reaches the limit of the "world" he is in and realizes its a simulation. I'm guessing we've already reached the limits of this simulation and the elites are hiding it from the rest of us so they created this globe earth mythology to keep people from trying to find it out.

Has he ever laid out a coherent argument for not voting or why he personally doesn't vote?



He's out of his depth on certain topics and this is one of them. He said people should vote in their local elections. This is the biggest local election there is.

He's confused, same way he can never remember peoples names on his LiveStreams.


I watch these folks for their entertainment value. As far as educating, naw I'll do that on my own

My take is that Tariq isn’t against voting. He actually encourages local voting. He’s against how we as black people collectively approach voting. While other groups vote for power, most of us vote for acknowledgement (white acceptance). The relationship between the Democratic Party and black society isn’t equitable. They hold over our heads the “benefits” they’ve given us without acknowledging they wouldn’t have a viable party without the unconditional support from black society. It’s not an equitable relationship.

If we as black people collectively and strategically decided we’re sitting out an election cycle, they’d have to offer us (black people, not “minorities”) more systematic tangibles. Malcolm X said the same thing btw.
Well.. I somewhat agree with your statement but it's a two way street... The first few comments of this thread with different posters bashing Tariq are people who just hate him and can't get past the messenger to understand the message...

To me it's its mutually exclusive: First Tariq, I like dude, met him a few times and he does make good points on different topics. BUT when he veers off into the realm of politics he is going into deep water without a life jacket. If HRC would have won, he had a shtick and he has endless material with Trump.

Not putting Tariq in the same realm with Malcom or MLK but they were seen as a race baitors fighting for equality and they were paid well for their speeches back then. America is the epitome of capitalism so why shouldn't he (tariq) get paid. He was making a lot of money in other realms way before he started "race baiting" or "race hustling" as some of posters put it but I digress.. Dude has a lane and he has put his money where his mouth is so......

Second and Last: People need to calm down, Tariq is NOT a black leader. Yes he has a following, but his following is not a microcosm of the black community who overall do vote and it's mostly always democratic. But on the flipside with social media having a such a huge platform, Tariq needs to tone down his rhetoric on voting because it's fuel for the republicans for voter suppression...

But the question has to be asked, will there ever be a feasible agenda put in place by the democratic party for BLACK people in this country? When obama was in office, we were told hes the president of EVERYONE not just blacks. But we were happy with the status quo. I have been preaching holding your local government to the fire for as long as I can vote. which is over 10 years. If we can't collectively ask for anything then we can't get anything.

One party supports gerrymandering, voter suppression while not really supporting civil rights, equality and criminal justice reform. That should be more than enough to vote against that party.

When will our basic values rise above policy differences?
Its not really a fair shake. One party completely doesn't give a shyt about Black people and have cosigned fukkery to Blacks, especially BM.

One party is down with somewhat and now over white supremacy. Some people aren't going to chose either one who are Black
