Most people who run for office aint shit; but you just gotta align yourself with the one that will represent you the most; or if we were really all united and voting; then we could get people to run that would do exactly what we wanted as well as be good candidates....
JUST IN: DOJ new asset forfeiture policy - police can seize property from people not charged w/crime
- Thread starter Spectrum
- Start date
Which would require more than just the party base to come out and vote. People don't seem to understand that the reason why politicians are voted in again and again is because of the party base. If you are not making your voice heard, then you are simply agreeing with what that elected official is doing or not doing.
The party controls the process but there are ways to get around that process but as you stated. People have to be united in voting.
Making your voice heard is booting that person out of office for simply toeing the party line and replacing them with someone not toeing the party line is how you get your voice heard.
They dont love the police; they just dont care because most police dont do shit to them; when it affects them though then its a different story...
You sound ridiculous and your interaction of whites is limited; just like you can post a pic of that shit, i could post pics and vids of whites saying the opposite; most whites dont care one way or the other as it relates to police; most whites know that police be on bullshit; just like they also know that police really dont bother them; and thats why they really dont care because for the most part, it doesnt affect them; these things are very well known...Nigga, they love the police.
One of these in front of all their yards
Yes.
You are on the money, @Day_Carver. The ones who dissuaded us from voting did not introduce any comprehensive plan to run our own candidate in 2020, coalesce with other minorities to back a candidate repping both our interests, lobby to limit campaign financing, organize against the electoral college. None of that.
Two things:
#1 Talk is cheap.
Conscious rappers in the late 80s - early 90s were watched and surveilled. In the end, those surveilling them saw all it was was talk. No one was mobilizing from that talk. No threat. It's not words - whether they are being used to complain, whether they are angry or not - that threaten the status quo.
It is action that threatens it. Along those lines:
#2 A new Civil Rights Movement led by the Black Lives Matter organization has been in effect for 3 years now around the issue of unjust deaths of Black folks by police and the issue of the assailants not being prosecuted. It is a matter of verifiable fact that things have been changing for the better across the nation as a result of their efforts. In several places around the U.S.: grand juries system to seek indictment of cops has been discontinued, reform in police training is taking place, body cams have been ordered, police are beginning to be prosecuted for killing Black folks, laws are starting to change. It's not a sudden cataclysmic change. But that's not how change as a result of protest works. It must be sustained and it takes time. The first Civil Rights Movement was going on for 10 years before the first Civil Rights Bill was enacted - 11 years before the Voting Rights Act.
The same so-called pro-Black prominent figures that you see on the internet telling Black folks not to vote are the ones repeating to us (debunked) white supremacist talking points (George Soros) AGAINST Black Lives Matter and declaring them to be anti-Black Man and having a secret gay agenda. This, in spite of the fact that all along BLM has been campaigning for justice mostly for Black males murdered. These prominent Black internet talking heads misclassify protest as being about "marching, praying and begging the white man".
But when it comes to direct action, they are not doing a damn thing themselves - but talking. Not mobilizing, but talking. They're not even out there on the streets leading boycotts of Korean and Arab stores in our neighborhoods and redirecting people to Black owned stores. They're just talking. Criticizing those who ARE out there doing things and getting results.
They are telling people not to vote and in effect telling them not to protest, as well.
Criticizing and sideline quarterbacking. And since these personalities wear the mantle of pro-Black, many of their listeners perceive themselves to be pro-Black purely because they follow them and can repeat what they say. These are tens of thousands of Black people - mostly men - who are being told about how we got to put our monies together and build shit, by folks who are not out there in the community implementing it and mobilizing folks.
Tens of thousands of Black people being led into inactivity through the costume of pro-Blackness.
How fucked up is that? Which side are these folks really on?
Black lives Matter fucked up because they should have pushed for the justice reform; fuck all that other shit they were talking about; and it should have been we are going to get people registered to vote and we are going to attack all voted in positions in the justice system; we are also going to attack sponsors of these people and police; thats how you get change that makes sense and is valid....
Nigga, they love the police.

Exactly, they love the police and what they're doing to us. They want to see more bullshit go down. They know it's not them and if it is, they'll get a fair shake before anything is taken. They will change the law back when those chickens come home to roost but in the meantime black folks are going to be at war with this stuff.
They have gotten folks to vote. That's how Cleveland and Chicago got rid of corrupt state's attorneys. Our people have become a culture of critics of these folks without looking at the fact that as police reform goes, they are the only ones who've gotten any sort of results.
As the people I critiqued go, it would seem that they would have attempted to coalesce with them, given their input, find where there's common ground and work alongside them.
I've posted on bgol comprehensively and exhaustively on specific Black Lives Matter victories, implementations and such over the last three years. Mass media doesn't report on these things, as it isn't in the best interests of their owners.
BLM and associated organizations have been pushing for justice reform all along. That is the root of their Movement.
I feel ya; but when they started talking reparations and that other shit; you tend to get not meaningful dialogue and action with that...
The choice in this past election was someone who would toe the party line or an opposition candidate who would actively seek to create and enforce polices that cause real harm, primarily to PoC. What do you think was the proper choice to make?
That's it. And it's not like those who urged us not to vote couldn't have seen that coming.
The same philosophy used by pimps all over the world.
They're in favor of reparations, but you got to realize they have a focus. That focus is a cessation of murders of POC by police, prosecution of said murderers and justice reform. It's a good thing to be concentrated in one area. BLM works alongside other social justice groups with various focuses.
Protest takes many forms: boycotts, marches, strikes, obstruction, confrontation, voting, pulling out of the system economically, demanding (things like reparations, for example). A successful social movement incorporates several methods of protest. This is why I don't see what BLM is doing as being something that is in opposition to the reparations movement or in opposition to buying Black. It's all to the same end.
And for the record, I would never urge anyone not to vote, but I sure as hell won't condemn anyone for not doing so.
I criticize those Black folks with a platform who urged us not to vote in the presidential election.
So now they can continue to practice keeping certain communities in poverty.
Enforcing poverty.
The devil is active.

By the way, the police state started awhile ago!!
So you think the election of Trump over Hillary is a good thing?
Of course not. But if you don't throw a wrench into the cogs of the machine it'll just run forever. Hopefully this past election was the wrench.
Probably not though, seems like the cotton mouthed mf's have more of a problem with the people who refused to vote for a shitty candidate than they do with the shitty candidate...
Please. Even Bernie has come out and said Russia was targeting Hillary and trying to divide dems with propaganda. You're just one of the ones who fell for it.
