How did Black politics fail the last 50 years post civil rights and voting rights act? What should we have done better?

Black people are tribal no matter what.
If you support their politics cool.
if not you're the enemy.

Black people fell for the political game.

I can’t do this with y’all. My understanding of what limits us as a people has shifted from where it was even 2 years ago. I used to think like a lot of y’all. I don’t anymore.

Start with the 7 Hermetic Principles and work your way up from there.

I legit used to think it was all talk, but it’s reality. I had someone SHOW me how things really work and when I tell you it’s you and only you who controls your reality, you can take it or leave it.

:hubie:
First, you are speaking on what can be done as a singular person like it can be done as a large group. A single Black American can leave, go somewhere else and be accepted. Your new psuedo enlightenment does not work for 44 million people, it only works for a few.

So please, oh enlightened one, explain how 44 million Black Americans can just leave and start fresh somewhere else. Please, explain the logistics on that feat from the costs of transportation to access to resources to support a population over 100k.

Oh, and please explain how many of you 7 Hermetic Principle disciples have accomplished the feat in mass?

Call it pseudo if you want. I’m not here to prove it you. You have the information and clearly, you have the time. Do you have the will, determination and discipline?

Now apply that to 44 million individuals.

Success isn’t luck and it isn’t a coordinated effort. I’m truly giving you the realest information I can give… what I’ve seen work and what is currently working for me, but instead of trying to understand it by looking into what I’m telling you, your reaction was ridiculing and questioning me.

:ehh:

I know or am separated by 1 degree to multiple black individuals in different fields and walks of life who just changed their mentalities and changed their lives in unbelievable ways. Once I stopped being a skeptic and changed my mentality, things began to change.

You can lead a horse to water type beat.

There’s no great mystery in what I’m telling you, but if you don’t understand it, it seems like fake deep shyt and is easily dismissed.

This will always and forever be a brain dead take

You can’t build shyt as second class citizens in a country you pay taxes in
It's not really a brain dead take. We practiced group economics more before integration. The problem with integration is the mentality it created in us. Instead of working together we ran towards cacs and rejected group power.

And we own less of the economy than before integration and face the same violence , but now also from each other. We are basically second class citizens, nothing really changed.

Did I say something wrong? We have it the hardest. We all know that. We have generations of dysfunction and trauma to deal with. We are policed, arrested and convicted more. Etc., etc.

I acknowledge, have experienced, etc.

I was also around for the 80s, 90s, etc.

That doesn’t change anything I said.

When black folk get successful, they more often than not leave the community. It’s not even always related to proximity to whiteness, because even in integration resources still aren't fairly distributed. You move to the burbs to avoid crime and have better schools, so that knowledge and money flees the community. And usually choose to procreate with who you're around, so wealth that is accumulates never makes back to the larger black community.
Can we discuss this?

I think there were several reason for them leaving then and even leaving now. a lot was due to safety/crime/and poor living conditions. Along with status.

It’s really hard to change an environment or change the values of a ppl. I think the safety/crime and poor living conditions played a bigger role.

Even today, our “educated” or those making a nice income still wanna get out of the hood… doesn’t mean they wanna be next to white ppl but they want a safe place with good schools. if you try to fix the hood, it’s kinda gentrification

Most Black “American” politicians are actually tethers cosplaying as us and hindering any real progress that we could have made to takeover shyt. Those mothafukkas like to speak on the behalf of Black Americans and negatively effect our lives.:scust:

Yeah integration was the worse thing that ever happened to Black Americans and if anyone comes at me about saying it, look at how things are going for us now. They give loans to non black folks to start businesses in our communities, but denying loans to us when we want to start businesses in our communities. That’s a part of desegregation.

I live in one of the whitest neighborhoods in Chicago, after living in one of the most hood neighborhoods in Philly, because it's walking distance to everything I like to do.

:comeon: Seven Hermetic principles??? When the last time Hermes did something for somebody?

We don't have time for this shyt, furthermore, if we're going the spiritual solution route, we have much better choices.

We don’t have time for this shyt… meanwhile we’ve been on the decline, bullshytting, and debating wasting time…

:mjlol:

If it’s spiritual to you, let it be that.
