On my Mother's side I've got roots in NY and the Caribbean but I was born and raised entirely in the Carolinas. Maybe it's because I'm in my 40s and my community predates the internet, but I've always had African, Caribbean, Latino people (and a random snow bunny or three, I have sinned against you, Dr. Umar...) in the mix, which again is likely the influence of having a parent that actively and intentionally immersed me in diasporic culture and history. I legitimately engage people so I have absolutely zero opinions that were formed second-hand through a podcast or YouTube video.
Being chronically online and constantly exposed to material that only affirms preconceptions is dangerous. For me, I just can't get up in arms about some faceless "Africans" on Snapchat being mean to Black people. They aren't stripping away rights or codifying actual white supremacist rhetoric into law. Offline American CACs are doing that. Colonialism is our longest-living and most pervasive enemy. Our energy is set upon each other instead of the actual constant and prevailing threat. It's a tragic irony that the same people that love to use the "crabs in a barrel" analogy turn right around and engage in online diaspora wars.
I'm not calling you a bitch. @mcguyver did like 20 times already in the month of July alone and it was hilarious every time but I won't do that, brother. But I do think you are giving too much credence to social media that exclusively platforms division and you may be straying from the path you initially set upon.
@Duece we go back a long ways brother, aint neither one of us ever spit an ill word against other. @NightMare Paint spitting some real shit bro, while i can respectfully see your views, I would at the same time say, take a minute to digest what the brother is saying, there is truth to it.
When a man of color can literally say that another man of color is not his brother, the seperation is real.
Im not trying to change your mind, but sometimes you just gitta know when to pick sense out of nonsense.

I hear both of you, and I think the issue is that certain BGOL members, Drayonis, mangobob, and mcguyver have tried to frame this as if I'm going after people in a xenophobic manner and that I'm giving white people a pass.
I am not making negative or disparaging comments about any person's or culture's looks, cuisine, or way of life. The stuff Tariq Nasheed is doing on social media is hateful and will eventually get somebody harmed or killed, which is why I unsubbed from him on every platform and cleared my algorithm of him years ago.
My main focus is behavior and mindsets, and how that becomes a stumbling block to progress. One side calling the other lazy and unmotivated is hurtful, demoralizing, and divisive, but likewise taunting a person with Carribean roots with "Trump is gonna deport you" is equally as hurtful, demoralizing and divisive especially damaging when it happens between children because children remember bad expirienecs and it shapes their lives and perspectives in many ways and that sort of thing sadly isn't exclusive to online.
I asked you serious questions and for proof that supports your dumb shit and you could not answer nor provide any. You repost bot tweets and maybe a handful for legitimate tweets and tried to present it as the norm. I ain't buying your disgust for Tariq because your energy is far from balanced. I know trolling when I see it.
''Trump is going to deport'' isnt a pejorative, it's a factual observation that his administration has openly described and to be frank, at this point, I'm not even rolling over in bed to protest it. Why would any rational person further expose themselves to increasingly hostile government interactions by intervening for people who are economically and thus politically undermining them? They arent losing ally's at that point. No force multiplier reduction at all. In fact, I've seen more objective framing from Hispanics regarding the truth and facts of race relations in their own communities than these other non-Black negro cultures. When pressed they always shed that mask and attack Black people while never addressing the bigotry they KNOW exists within their communities.I hear both of you, and I think the issue is that certain BGOL members, Drayonis, mangobob, and mcguyver have tried to frame this as if I'm going after people in a xenophobic manner and that I'm giving white people a pass.

1000% agreeAll you MOFOs I considered bgol fam, but that fba/ados shit i considered one of the biggest betrayals to black folk. I see that shit as being the same propaganda that started the Rwandan genocide. What this internet cult is doing, is self serving and a detriment black folk while white supremacy gains strength. Anyone who cosign or repeats their bullshit can get all the smoke.
Thanks for your bitch ass response.
You're the one cussing up a storm ONLINE.
I'm actually taking the time to respond to people without cursing or insults, while ONLINE.
1000% agree
I just got scammed out by them. You want to bring this mentality over here be my guest. Luckily I limited my losses when I suspected something was wrong. I saw a foreign transaction fee and traced it back to them
Whites put these fools to shame,
Another dumbing down response.

Mask off... fuck it mask off!I think theyre opinions as well as mine, we see you aliging youtself, wirh all these anti black clowns or these blacks that think they are better than us aka ado / fba, these coon ass Trump supporters which most of us black folk despise.
The same ass descendant that aint immigrants because they family was brought on a boat unwillingly, yet those that are here and bor here are the problem.
Megatwan, supergay, vaiz4cockloving and all these other shit stains in the black community that thrive of division are the real problem, and imo, they are the worst CAC's.
Mask off... fuck it mask off!
Yes tell us more! Show your full TRUE self.
I didn't even try to figure out what the fuck he was talking about.You get scammed by who? Who's "them"?
Why do you always choose a fucked up screen name? First cointelpro now this spectre1 shit..
White supremacy is the root cause of everything. The idea that I’m trying to shift the blame from racist whites to all Africans is false. But when you harbor white supremacist thinking and act on it as Black person, you are part of the problem. Calling this out doesn’t make me xenophobic.Since,you think it's a dumb response;then tell me and everyone how Africans are the problem but not white supremacy.
i will say fk all yall coonz fba ados b1 bitch ass negroes
yall not even black specially after 7 month of trump

And I can dig that. Neither side should be downing the other because in America we are only "black" - and Niggêrz to the masses.I hear both of you, and I think the issue is that certain BGOL members, Drayonis, mangobob, and mcguyver have tried to frame this as if I'm going after people in a xenophobic manner and that I'm giving white people a pass.
