Congrats. Alt-Righters and Cornel West fans forced Ta-Nehisi Coates of Twitter

[BushidoBrown]

Coates LITERALLY writes in the first chapter of his latest book: "I dont know why white people like me so much"

so this is sposed to magically absolve him from all the soft shoeing and psuedo activism he has spent his years doing?
man please
with that weak shyt
You act like this is some official evidence that Coates isnt suspiciously with some of his work

Cornell West's and others' critiques of Coates are perfectly legit
and thats not saying West is without flaw either
stop acting like such a fukking robot
and your blackness will forever remain questionable on this board
also, you come off like a dem establishment plant with all ur cornball ass threads

I know you're a curry eating Indian, but I don't give a fukk what some Indian bytch has to say about shyt when her people are some of the most racists pieces of shyt on this earth.

Yup and as an Indian I agree with you.

@The Wave this is the type of shyt I'm talking about in the other thread, this is why the "white privilege" narrative is problematic. This Indian broad has latched onto it and is seeking a piece of the American oppression pie when she probably met her first black friend in college. These people are parasites.

 

[Bawon Samedi]

Move this moist shyt to the HL.

 

[I Really Mean It]

I'm speaking strictly within an American contexts, to most AA and that money is going back into the economy and back into white hands. Only a small number will take advantage and actually build.

How do you know that most reparations will be funneled back into the hands of white people? What proof do you have to corroborate that claim?

 

[NoGutsNoGLory]

What you fail to realize is that region of the planet has been subject to white supremacy and caste systems based on skin colour due to British colonialism. They suffer from the same poison so discussions on the topics are more than valid

yeah im pretty sure the caste system is thousands of years old. They dont like black people so they can fukk off to their no toilet having racist society too for all we care. We dont need outside opinions for our problems.

 

[Booker T Garvey]

You fool, people did do things like this. There are advocates promoting ending slavery, racism, etc. worldwide. It’s not ridiculous, it happens and it’s crucial it does

You have any other stark observations?

Ok then find articles or speeches made by this woman that denounce her own cultures’ racism.

 

[bigbadbossup2012]

Lmao at nikkas acting like Obama is praise worthy.
And why are we supposed to care for
Ta-Nehisi Coates?

 

[WaveCapsByOscorp™]

She should be spending her time critiquing Indians instead of commenting on two black males having a disagreement. The fact she thinks she is privileged to comment on the state of the black race shows her feelings of superiority "this is what's wrong with you people"

She wasn’t criticising the men. If you feel that way then you’re a part of the problem. Simply because you don’t read with understanding. She clearly states how “fighting” between the groups is a media tactic and how it’s unhealthy. Anyone that wants to call her derogatory names because she believes fighting between each other is bad IS a part of that evil fighting spirit problem

You do it. I’m not your assistant.

 

[Booker T Garvey]

You do it. I’m not your assistant.

I couldn’t find any sir. You’re the one comparing her to abolitionists and Quaker’s

I thought for sure you were familiar with her work

You sound like a racist saying things like “no toilet having racist society”. What type of person can’t articulate his point without such type of sentiments unless you’re just trying to hate?

You have a point. But reparations does nothing to dismantle the white supremacist system that's in place. Its just a wealth transfer and will hardly affect the average white American who will still reap benefits from the system. And let's not kid ourselves, throws some bones, and I'm speaking strictly within an American contexts, to most AA and that money is going back into the economy and back into white hands. Only a small number will take advantage and actually build.

White supremacy is power. And in order to dismantle it, it has to be taken. Rebellion, uprisings, violence is the only way that will happen. And so I would posit, thats the one thing Coates can advocate for that's worse than reparations.

You're rambling.

Cornel West is out here talking about people in Palestine and some dumb shyt while Coates explicitly has written for close to a decade on the black American experience.

And he wasn't out here buck dancing for it either.

West hasn't written 1% of what Coates has in the last 10 years. Maybe the last 15.

 

[WaveCapsByOscorp™]

You’re the one who brought up people who oppose systems they were raised from. You said it’s not possible and I said it is and gave examples. Never said she was the best example not the only one, I just said if you consider her a part of a system, it’s possible she can speak out against it as seen before in the past

pseudo activism?

Did you confuse yourself with who Cornel West is?

I just wish if elders have a problem with a young blood..
Pull them to the side behind the scenes instead of shytting/lambasting them in public

I do agree with this. Or at the very least as an alternative, commit to only debating each other on black owned and run media platforms (and im not talking about the root, the griot, huff po black voices either)
keep this shyt within the community dont put on a free show for cacs
