I'm more mad at him than I am at her. Reparations wasn't the topic of that interview. But because this dumbass wanted to bring up a topic that he should have known he doesn't have the qualifications to discuss, now he gave right wingers more ammo accidentally. What an IDIOT.

Gotta dap this. This.

That's honestly one of the worst newsreader reactions I've ever seen in my life in terms of the person not being educated enough in the matter to respond. That was embarrassing but because he knew even if he had 1 response to her original point, she had more in the chamber to smoke him with

nikka you READ THE NEWS ALL DAY. THAT'S YOUR JOB. How the fukk can you be caught that short in an argument

Black people trying to cancel the woman king is just as bad


Lemon like many other hosts on these cable news channels don’t do enough research to be educated enough to debate topics.

These are basically bootleg debate shows and opinion rants. Lemon isn’t a debater.


It’s embarrassing but keep in mind who he works for.
Why is the woman king good for negroes in tho? It promotes disorder, as we see now with the Matriarchal way of living the past 80 yrs.

The "Black people are responsible for slavery" debate is happening alot sooner than I thought. I figured we had another generation or so...when African countries are starting to have a voice in the international community.
It was started by white people and had been carried by a black people. We have had multiple threads here talking about Africans owe reparations. Today I was accused in a completely random music thread of having slave ancestors.

The internet has ruined so many impressionable minds.

Don Lemon, like a lot of other folks, have zero understanding of 'reparations' and he, like those other folks, should stop running their mouths about it. It's not a game, it's a justice claim that requires research and understanding on what it should look like. Don Lemon clearly hasn't done either and it showed here. Her argument is no different from what any other inbred cac from Athens, Alabama on Twitter would say, but it still stumped him.


Say what you want about Yvette Carnell, Tonetalks and them, they would've shut this down easily.

People talk shyt about Yvette but she really is a force to be reckoned it when it comes to debating and discussing these issues live in person.


At 15:00 min mark and 44:45 min Yvette speaks. She’s the only one who is making sense out of that whole panel.

It’s a movie, a lot of which is fiction.

It’s important to support it, to show how powerful the black dollar is. That’s why Black Panther was so important.

Hollywood has been hesitant in the past because they don’t respect the black dollar.

Even Black people accept the narrative that Africans sold their own without taking into consideration that it is cacs pushing this lie. Read up on the inquisition and find out who was really targeted for slavery.

Which is facts.

But black people didn’t set up the system of slavery or create the transatlantic slave trade. This is something entirely different than just caging up slaves and shipping them off.

What she’s leaving out is the system that enriched Britain for 250 years before before they began abolishing it.

Disgusting cac bytch c*nt

She knows her area of expertise. Same for Tone and many other people in the reparations space right now. People have a bad habit of trying to be this intellectual jack-of-trades instead of just letting the more experienced people do the debating for them on some things.

What about principles tho? The black dollar would be shown if we would stick to ourselves, turn back to The Most High and stop dating, procreating with all these other people and giving the wealth back to them. If we stop participating in their foolishness.

Don't feel like typing a novel, but her argument is trash, and easily combated.

Put as simply and summarized as I can, being able to trace wrongs, (and I'm taking the position at face value), doesn't alleviate those that play into the wrongs following its beginning. So if I start pillaging countries, and I have underlings or people are inspired to do the same, they are not alleviated from the causes of their harm simply because I initiated it or inspired them to do so, even if they are the first to recognize it as wrong and as a result, outlaw it.

You see, when you commit a wrong out there, it is already done, plain and simple, you can't ever really rectify that, but what we can do is compensate the affected parties to the best of our ability. In engaging with ethics, we strive to prevent wrongs from happening, because rectifying them is truly an impossibility if we analyze it properly, which is why I'm keeping this post short because something as simple as striking someone, I could type a whole report on that alone, so think about something as complex as colonialism, in truth, if put to a dollar amount, the country couldn't exist if they paid back what was truly due. And why should they pay it back? Well this plays into our moral systems and maintaining consistency, it's what I would hold them to as a means for getting agreement on reparations.

Trying to keep it short...

Side note, another example of why Lemon isn't fit to be hosting his own show, not to suggest he is an anomaly amongst political commentators, in truth, 99% if not all that I am aware of shouldn't have their platforms, they haven't engaged with philosophy enough or even the topics they discuss to justify their airtime, it's the media, really just money, that justifies their airtime.

The Dahoney were a real tribe and real life slave traders, the hell do you mean "fiction" :mjtf:


They put that movie out there to corroborate statements like the what the woman said to Don Lemon.

This is going to be the new cac narrative.

"We didn't start the slave trade, it was already up and running when we got to Africa and we then made it illegal while Africans didn't"

They'll then cite The Dahomey having to be stopped by The British and French to back this., something which I'm already seeing cacs do already talking about how "The British and The French were real abolishers/heroes"

Y'all have played yourselves :yeshrug:
