White Supremacy
Reparations
Racial Wealth Gap
Gentrification
How many political candidates are talking about these issues?
Let’s talk about it.
Come thru.

These folks are just terrible people and are coddled by these soft spaces. He literally states he believes black men without college degrees are harmed but immigration benefits America broadly.
1. America broadly is white
2. They are always willing to sacrifice BLACK FOLKS.

City Hall’s play is transparent: Mayor Mamdani will likely extend Linda Tigani’s term for one year under pressure, only to install Chris Alexander to take over CORE next summer.
Make no mistake: this is an orchestrated maneuver to dismantle lineage-based reparations. 🧵👇

People will honestly work to destroy your reputation just so they can steal your work, because destroying Black celebrity worship is what Antonio & I have been doing for a decade.
FD Signifier explains that the point of his video is to cut down on celebrity worship, especially among Black people.
He points to Black celebrities people love without paying attention to their politics.
According to him , It hurts to see where Jasmine Crockett is right now. It hurts to see Jay-Z's views on capitalism. And it hurts to see what Kanye West has become.
His argument is that you can criticize them and still love their art.
Killer Mike, who dissed him in a freestyle, is his example.
He said , people are shocked to learn Mike is still one of his favorite rappers, and part of why he made the video was to reconnect with the music he loved so much.
He even admits he almost feels bad. In the last few months Mike has been doing interviews with prominent Democrats, which FD jokes is his "my bad" moment for Stacey Abrams.
He does credits that shift to people kicking Mike's back, and he gives Mike props for being willing to change.
According to him , Mike putting himself in a position to be criticized shows he isn't too far gone. Many of the Black leaders in that "misleadership" role refuse to be held accountable at all.
He respects Mike for that, and hopes the guy who once said "I'm going to burn this motherf***er down" is still in there.

Have you ever walked your enemy down with a poker face? 💀🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Defending Chris Alexander’s record as “fantastic” is wild when his tenure at OCM was an objective catastrophe for ADOS New Yorkers.
The MRTA promised equity and restorative justice.
Instead, OCM delivered regulatory paralysis, lawsuits, and broken promises. 🧵👇🏽

“Hizzoner sent a letter to the City Council this week asking lawmakers to sign off on replacing Linda Tigani with Christopher Alexander, the executive director of New York’s NAACP.”

She got to stop thinking everyone needs to be heard. Question becomes is justice more important to you or creating content? As @BreakingBrown say all the time “we rise together or fall together. #ADOS

Look at what you Pretendian weirdos did. I try not to hate people, but I honestly hate y’all. I do.
Because reducing the discussion to “we weren’t all slaves” completely misses the point. The issue isn’t whether slavery was the entirety of our history. It’s whether the government has addressed the consequences of slavery, Jim Crow and generations of state-sanctioned discrimination. Do those statues reduce the racial wealth gap? Afford us civil rights protections? Give resources to our communities?
And where’s the “substance over symbolism” in these statues?
This man & his cohorts are fools who I hate being associated with. They embarrass me. Their self esteem is so low that most of them are sticking feathers 🪶 in their hair & anchoring themselves in a history that doesn’t belong to them.
I also blame the creator of Malanoid Nation & Dane Calloway for this nonsense. Clowns 🤡. There will be a harsh consequence for choosing to be led by charlatans & fools. It’s coming.

This part of the interview is infuriating.
Joy Ann Reid speaks with such understanding for the people who used Gaza as a reason not to vote for Kamala, but couldn’t apply that same logic to the ADOS movement advocating for reparations and a Black agenda.

We need an internal moral reckoning in the #ADOS community because 50 Cent has always been awful, but too many people giggled right along & rewarded his behavior.
A community unwilling to establish moral standards, enforce boundaries, and ostracize bad actors will eventually be defined by them.

Still haven’t figured out who she is, except that she is a Black immigrant who attended boarding school & has a law degree 👀
Imagine doing all that just to gossip about weird, white streamers.
This is the kind of content that leads to panic attacks & brain bleeds
. @olurinatti walks the #JBP through the scandalous news surrounding popular YouTuber Ethan Kline and his wife 👀
