Yeah, I have friends that subscribe to this kinda shyt. But we’ve got a light hearted friendship so we crack jokes at one another over the shyt. One of them is starting to feel like Tariq is a con artist but he still fukk wit em.

It is what it is, as someone whose parents come straight from Africa to me it ain’t my place to tell you what your identity is especially in this scenario. I can have my own thoughts and opinions on that but it’s not for me to impose on others. That’s why while I disagree with many aspects of this newfound Black nativism it still doesn’t mean I have to engage it insofar as my attempting to shift the narrative towards something I agree with. Only the believers can decide whether or not they still believe.

Part of the problem with FBA. Is black americans are expected to be culturally aloof dodo bird negros who dont zone in on the idea of ethnicity,lneage and culture that stems from that, that is specific to us. That version of black americans is the one non fbas have been used to. Thats why "fba" comes off as a group to you all.

Its the predominate culturally aloof american negro, that your used to........VS this "group" of black americans who are standing on culture. Which is a foreign concept to outside observers, so it takes on the form of this divergent "group"

Someone doesnt have to explicitly dstate FBA or ADOS, the sentiment is already out there. Simply not articulated as fba or ados specfically

but thats changing

The message is spreading.

All the democrat shills know about it right? They tried to silence it during the election, only referring to us as alphabet group and other slick shyt.

Y’all can pretend like it’s only online but you’d be fooling yourself.

I've never heard anyone say "FBA/ADOS" or "TETHER" outside of the Internet. I'm from Cameroon (came to America when I was 4) and I've been called an "African Booty Scratcha" a few times growing up in Southside Chicago by some ignorant Nikkas but that was the exception not the norm for me.

Most of my friends and girlfriends growing up were and are FBAs and other Black folks outside of my Nationality.

No. But I don't run in circles that have time to get mired in it. Matter fact, pretty sure my Trump voting cousin would be familiar with it. He is big on Yahweh and that kinda talk(along with right wing support) seems to tie together in my observation.
