Farrakhan - Boycott Christmas 2015

[MajorVitaman]

I haven't celebrated Christmas much in the last few years. I don't see why it would be a bad idea to boycott it for one year, but of course blacks will come up with all kinds of excuses of why its a problem. Thats what we do. Everytime theres a unique solution thought of, we dismiss it, complain and then attack the messenger. Truth be told, many of us are afraid to go against the norm. Blacks don't wanna deal with backlash/societal pressures from white supremacists or their own for abandoning it. Were brainwashed & conditioned into going out buying gifts/decorations every time the holiday season rolls around. It is what it is. It was never intended to be our holiday in the first place. If I had kids, I wouldn't have them believe in that fairy tale bullshyt...
A fat white man in a costume with a biker beard flying around delivering presents to the rich & poor. Yeah my mama got me too


Thats another trick that has black children believing that the white man is a powerful, gracious, harmless spiritual being. At this point, we don't got time to be fukking bytching and criticizing a well thought out plan that could be effective. Were in do or die survival mode right now.

It's 2015 it's over, we aren't self sufficien and we are at the bottom of the totem pole when it comes to rights it's over. We are in survival mode at this point. This shyt farrakhan talking should started happening 30-50 years ago. At this point we need to just build our resources for survival

Ok well it's not 30 years ago nikka it's right now. What is your main issue with not giving white folks your money? Why do you personally feel the need to spend money on nikka trinkets instead of helping yourself or your family set up some real wealth? What is your issue??? Specifically, other than that smart-dumb nikka fake outrage of "Farrakhan is a agent! cause some youtube video told me!"?

people like brother Claude Anderson been outlined what we SHOULD have done a long long time ago. instead you c00ns were busy wasting money and resources on our frivolous shyt. its over, Farrakhan should have had this mindset for us in his 40s not his 80s. we are 3rd arguably 4th class citizens at this point. time to just go in survival of the fittest mode.

Farrakhan is a student of Malcom, who's a student of Elijah who always taught self sufficiency and total separation from whites. ya'll just talkin to talk.

 

[MJ Truth]

Farrakhan has some solid speeches but overall, he is questionable in my book. most of our black leaders went out 1 of 2 ways. the one's assassinated were the one's who were feared and thought to really be able to unite us. those who were allowed to live (and if you think that I'm wild for saying that, just research FBI files dealing with Black Leadership, the goal to infiltrate it and undermine it's positive growth and influence) they have been tainted. Farrakhan saying we should buy land but where is the classes or seminars which explain the laws and regulations you have to follow in order to maintain the land?

I'm tired of Black Leader's saying all this shyt we should be and shouldn't be doing, yet where is the classes and the lessons to help us reach these proposed goals? Yea, it's cool to own your own business but I'm willing to bet a dollar to a dime that 9/10 times the average brother or sister has no understanding of the laws and registration requirements for such ventures. always someone looking down on you and telling you how you should live YOUR life.

You have such a negative and pessimistic perspective on our community that you don't realize that these programs you're complaining about not being out there are out there.

when did I say he wasn't a student of malchom. You nikkas reading what you want to read. 2nd of all we should have been boycotting Christmas for decades by now. A random way to late Christmas in 2015 doesn't do anything

are you literate?


Again, specifically, what is your issue with not spending your money at a cac business and instead saving or money or investing your money at a black business or investing your money in something tangible like some acres? Specifically, what is your alternative to Farrakhan's plan, since you think it's so flawed.

Great thread

So glad this wasnt moved to the bushes, i mean the root

 

[Nigerianwonder]

Black middle class has been gutted during obamas presidency. Little wealth black folks have left is decreasing daily. It's 2015 and folks in here still dont understand this country runs on money. Collectively, economic boycotts can be extremely effective and a showing of power. Thats all farakahn is saying. I fear its much too late though. As black wealth dissappears so does any power blacks had as a community. Blacks in america are on their way to being a permanent underclass. Thats why a million black can gather in the capital last weekend and be completely ignored by media ( including so called "black media" which is controlled by white entities). No other group could gather in those numbers and be completely ignored regardless of the message or messenger.

I'm down.

I have no business spending money anyway. Just bough a house, saving money for renovations so pockets are tight.

your arguing things i'm not even arguing against. went from Christmas is seen as a family get together to some whole other shyt that I agree with.

 

[BezO]

they probably spent close to a mill maybe a little over last weekend with all the major white companies who own hotels, retail stores, and restaurants in the DC area.

Keep ignoring this inconvenient truth

Y'all are lookin' for excuses NOT to support the cause instead of reasons TO. We don't own the infastructure in the US for every dollar for the cause to be spent with Blacks. And you can't point out every flaw of every leader and use that as an excuse. They all have faults. Some are former adulturers, drug addicts, etc. If you're waitin' for the perfect man or woman to drop the knowledge, you'll be waitin' forever.

So realistically, what effect would black people boycotting Christmas 2015 have on the country?

We are only 13% of the country, even less when it comes to expendable cash. Black people not shopping at best buy would do absolutely nothing to their economic prospects.

Black people have shown time and time again that we can and will stand together. They don't give a fukk about that.

There is no other "strategy" presented here for the money and when/if we buy property it's probably gonna be to the profit of "those who oppress us"

Like I said I'm all for the education of our people. But arbitrary protests mean nothing in the grand scheme of things.

Much. 5, 10, 15% of profits is a big deal to most companies. Some of these retailers don't get into the black until holiday season. Trust, they wouldn't spend money advertisin' to us if our money didn't count. We spend. We go in debt to spend.

nothing a few more hotep nikkas boycotting the biggest season of consumer spending won't do shyt. what would do something is black folks not working for any white corporations. starting their own businesses and spending within their own businesses. lol at boycotting something when you aren't self sufficient stupidest concept ever.

Nah, this plan has worked in the pass. Read up on the bus boycotts. Boycottin' is about the only thing that HAS worked for us. Beggin', marchin', protestin', lootin' has never accomplished anything. These folks only understand money. Until we hit them pockets, it's business as usual.

Not sure why you quoted me with that type of response. Nobody attacked Luis personally. I just showcased his hypocrisy.

He's of the establishment

Funded by the establishment

Funds the establishment

Then turns around and trolls his followers with some unrealistic challenge he knows they aren't prepared to take on

 

[Crayola Coyote]

All this money, resources and organization Plus dirt cheap real estate in places like Detroit.........How hard is it to take some of their hundreds of millions AND get these bean pies off the streets and into a production factory?

Folks need socks and underwear and white tees globally. You telling me nobody can rally some resources and build a factory to produce for the people and give REAL people REAL jobs?

Ah I see too much competition wouldn't be looked on positively by Fruit of the Loom and the Asians etc.....so nah guess that won't work. Too much of a threat of people gaining independence financially and doing something for the community.....................nah that won't work, can't build on that. Nah, nope, there would be too much expectation and who needs that when you can just give feel good speeches and expect those who are broken to just do for self until the next speech.

Lmfaoo nah real talk we should be producing white tees or something

Really?

He's of the establishment

Funded by the establishment

Funds the establishment

You skipped over me sayin', "We don't own the infrastructure in the US for every dollar for the cause to be spent with Blacks"

And what he spent to attend the biggest event we've had in 20 years is nothin' compared to what he's askin' us not to spend.

Then turns around and trolls his followers with some unrealistic challenge he knows they aren't prepared to take on

It's only unrealistic to folks of your mindset, scared or simply unwilling to make the necessary changes.

Whoever the messenger is, whatever the message is, some folks will only look for excuses.

The messege is sound. It's worked in the past. Stop lookin' for faults in the messenger and study the history this concept is based on.
