Thoughts? Justin Timberlake BLASTED For Tweeting About Jesse Williams 2016 BET Awards Speech

nah ..... put it this way say black culture is a line and jt stands on it , would he be positive or negative on it? he sho wouldnt be a negative he's done nothing to hurt it....except being white. like it or not in music the idea is to get more exposure. we get on his songs you think that's not a plus? 3-6 get on there you think they didnt like that exposure? i've said his value is he makes good music....... positive feel good music. to me thats all i care to get from the dude. that goes a long way. black or white
You're conflating being a featured artist with appropriating culture. Not the same. You're also drawing a false equivalency there that is misplaced to say the least. Getting so called exposure by doing a song together is totally difference than creating an entire identity and career on mimicking a genre of music without contributing to the community its stolen from. Sorry.

Still waiting on you to explain who he is an asset tho. Making good music doesnt explain how hes an asset to blacks.

cause he keeps us dancing lol that's enough.

we ain't shit and i include myself in that because we can't be separate we need to be together
 
white people have no respect for anything though fam lol.
i lay it out so that people can see. i said all that attacking him as a supposed man and all he could say is you're an old geezer lol
The fact that he pulled geezer out of his dumb ass shows hes a weak ass CAC... What brother even uses that wack shit for an insult. :smh:

Damn... Got you in here using your elevated vocabulary and shit!:lol:
 
Stop it with this stealing shit. If you don't like white people so much why do you use the Internet. White people invented the Internet. Again stop it with your over excessive bullshit.

Some would disagree or beg to differ with you.
Because it is reported that a black man actually invented the internet.




Philip Emeagwali, A Calculating Move

It's hard to say who invented the Internet. There were many mathematicians and scientists who contributed to its development; computers were sending signals to each other as early as the 1950s. But the Web owes much of its existence to Philip Emeagwali, a math whiz who came up with the formula for allowing a large number of computers to communicate at once.

Emeagwali was born to a poor family in Akure, Nigeria, in 1954. Despite his brain for math, he had to drop out of school because his family, who had become war refugees, could no longer afford to send him. As a young man, he earned a general education certificate from the University of London and later degrees from George Washington University and the University of Maryland, as well as a doctoral fellowship from the University of Michigan.

At Michigan, he participated in the scientific community's debate on how to simulate the detection of oil reservoirs using a supercomputer. Growing up in an oil-rich nation and understanding how oil is drilled, Emeagwali decided to use this problem as the subject of his doctoral dissertation. Borrowing an idea from a science fiction story about predicting the weather, Emeagwali decided that rather than using 8 expensive supercomputers he would employ thousands of microprocessors to do the computation.

The only step left was to find 8 machines and connect them. (Remember, it was the 80s.) Through research, he found a machine called the Connection Machine at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, which had sat unused after scientists had given up on figuring out how to make it simulate nuclear explosions. The machine was designed to run 65,536 interconnected microprocessors. In 1987, he applied for and was given permission to use the machine, and remotely from his Ann Arbor, Michigan, location he set the parameters and ran his program. In addition to correctly computing the amount of oil in the simulated reservoir, the machine was able to perform 3.1 billion calculations per second.

The crux of the discovery was that Emeagwali had programmed each of the microprocessors to talk to six neighboring microprocessors at the same time.

The success of this record-breaking experiment meant that there was now a practical and inexpensive way to use machines like this to speak to each other all over the world. Within a few years, the oil industry had seized upon this idea, then called the Hyperball International Network creating a virtual world wide web of ultrafast digital communication.

The discovery earned him the Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineers' Gordon Bell Prize in 1989, considered the Nobel Prize of computing, and he was later hailed as one of the fathers of the Internet. Since then, he has won more than 100 prizes for his work and Apple computer has used his microprocessor technology in their Power Mac G4 model. Today he lives in Washington with his wife and son.

"The Internet as we know it today did not cross my mind," Emeagwali told TIME. "I was hypothesizing a planetary-sized supercomputer and, broadly speaking, my focus was on how the present creates the future and how our image of the future inspires the present."

You don't though lol. You're white. "Facts" change depending on how you feel.
You have nothing to say to me lol. You keep trying to incite me with shit and it don't work and it eats your cac soul.
You even quote me when i don't quote you and i ignore them. I don't need to put you on ignore because I know how to deal with your kind.
You say something stupid about race and your cac mind immediately says ill hurt him because a basketball team lost
LOL contrary to popular belief a black man can support more than 1 black person at a time so while Im disappointed my team lost I am at the same time happy lebron was able to fulfill a dream of his.

You've called me old. You've called me lame. You've tried everything and I'm still here. Indifferent to what you say.
And that hurts you.

I want to thank you though
Waking up knowing that I'm not you is the greatest gift the gods could have ever given me.

Who're you fussin at?

i can see where you are coming from. felt i explained the asset part in an earlier post but i said he'd BE an asset for our music rather than a bad representation of it. basically plus-minus, good-bad, hot- cold.boils down to it you one or the other. i never said he WAS an asset but he seems to be a positive in this genre, music or culture rather than a negative. they all blend together and can go hand in hand for me. but i have been focused more on the music cause that's all that is important to me at the end of the day from j timberlake. he should have just left it alone .....just stick to making good music.

This is not factual Information though. If it's not factual it don't matter.

This is more factual

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet
 
Exactly!!!!

If you've never used your platform to acknowledge and renounce the hatred and bigotry you see daily... Then don't open your fucking mouth for some middle of the road, passive, pussy ass co sign that is not needed nor wanted.

Especially if you a cac who made his fame co opting black music while coming from the same state did birthed Elvis fucking Presley.



same cacs that will wear rainbow colors

but will be silent at blatant police brutality



That is who Jesse was talking about

have a fucking seat cause you have NO intentions to DO anything

a fucking tweet? really?[/QUOTE]

and " FONZERELII "PLS STOP WITH THE "OUR MUSIC" ure a white man ,u dont get to decide whats is "OURS"
we're not asking ur people not to sing "black music" or whatever but whenever we claim our shit u and ur devil people start that bs that jessie was talkin about "use our talent but discard and dispose our bodies"
plz " if u have a critic of our resistance then u should have a critic of our oppression" ; JESSIE WILLIAMS; okay...?
 
I hate the term "You're an asset to your race" which is bad when it's coming from your own race and in the days after slavery(chains and whips)many of our own who were highly educated used that term and ran with it to distance themselves from a most horrific past but more treacherously trying to separate themselves from other black's who still were forced to do hard labor work for whatever reason's.Those same educated fools were an asset to our race but as soon as their oppressor felt any resentment towards him or her,a simple rope and a sturdy tree made them feel just as equal as the person hanging from it.

We don't like to talk about it but this still goes on today,with bullshit like the Jack&Jill club that only certain types of blacks can get into because they are educated,they have assumed some wealth but they still must congregate with their own and hand out sponsorships to the kids whose parents participate in their inner circles.

A real fucking ASSet to their race alright....but aint a damn thing changed.
