Claude is a smart man... but I'm tired of n1ggaz writing 50 paragraphs making vids discouraging us to vote.

it's like a 45 year old man waiting for a growth spurt to make him 7 feet tall

Black wealth/ group economics isn't gonna happen. Period. Ever. It's as unrealistic as reparations. if it was gon happen, it would've happened by now.

It's as unrealistic as reparations. didn't happen when there wasnt crazy low cost of living, homes were $30k, rent was $300, jobs were hiring any dude off the street without a degree. Tuition didnt cost $4k a semester. we didn't take advantage of it, or society didn't let us.

now we know how the economy works now. You got middle class CACs struggling, what do you think is gonna happen to us? Cost of living is fukking ridiculous. Same house that cost $40k is now $400k. average Black Wealth might drop to $0 by 2040. Average wealth for some black demographics is damn near $4000 even now.



hispanics got not money either. so why are Dems and Repubcs bending over backwards to get them to vote? BC pretty soon, they are gonna be the majority in this country. off sheer number. they HAVE to listen them



look at this... we still gon be a stagnant 12% of the population meanwhile hispanics increasing their share every year.

Its not useless,Its as useless as having a job and not having your own business.
Yes long term there is no stability there,they only give a fukk about you when they need you,you will not really be able to call any shots,and will just have to accept what they give you.
But having a job still will make your life more comfortable at the moment,and thats all black people really care about in this country at this time.
Black comfortability levels at all time highs of 95%:francis:

This isn't true due to the fact that dems need the black vote, we can definitely hold them hostage until they give us #tangibles.

He's right, but since for a number of reasons, we ADOSs have been anti-entrepreneurial since segregation, and have been pro-working for the government as employees, or as employees for white businesses, we have not been able to gain economic power through government action (business contracting income at the local, state, federal level).

And since we do not develop wealth, we do not possess the financial power to influence the political process through campaign contributions and lobbying/political action committees.

So we're left with old time marching and protesting, tweeting, random videos on YouTube and postings on The Coli.

voting isn't useless without economic power but it is FAR more useful if you have it...

without economic power the people you vote for don't have to do things for you they promised because you have no way of punishing them...

She exposed that his business went bankrupt, that's all

:russ: “That’s all” huh..

The man purposely went to a black bank and tried to get over on em, pull some shyt he knows he wouldn’t get away with at Bank of America - all under that veil of “I only bank black!”

Trust me, I use to own a business, black churches would always send sweet old ladies to come get bulk order t-shirts then try to work down the price at the end, we do each other like this all the time

Just vote

Got Damn

Its free and it takes 20 minutes

The thing about voting being useless: its not, but it's also has zero downside. Its doesn't stop the genius in he video from building America into a paradise for Black people.

So why not vote AND build Wakanda?

Here's a good question. Where the video on exactly HOW to build this Economic Power?

Y'all talk all this shyt about waiting on a miracle from on high before you'll get up off your ass and do one of the easiest things in this world (vote)

Nah. Gotta walk it like you talk it bruh.

Can’t preach black self reliance and economics then turn around and force a black bank to sue you in order for a payment?

Do you know how bad it is when ANY bank gets to that level with someone? That’s passed the collections phase, it goes legal when people flat out refuse to make payments of any kind. :francis:
