bruh fukk half the people on this site, they either CAC's, bots, or lost individuals.
That Jedi mind c00ning is powerful :whew:

Explain this to me bruh, and point out any inaccuracies...

Malcolm X felt MLK was a c00n

MLK wasn't as popular when he died, he peaked with black folks before he died and peaked with white folks afterwards

Yet Kaepernick's approach is to remain silent and get paid. I'm not attacking his start, I'm attacking the finish. He became the face of the movement THEN sold out. Excuses I've heard/read is well he didn't ask to become the face. Ok, but he is, and now he's profiting off it in exchange for his silence so business can go back to business as usual. His image still gets left out because they don't stand with Kaepernick. Nike stands with the NFL, and the NFL indirectly bought off Kaepernick. Now to recover that cash could you donate $50 for a T-shirt with a face that isn't the face..well, he didn't ask to be so blah blah blah and here's your receipt sir...

:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:bruh we live in America, that is literally what EVERY charity is about. EVERY BRAND, PRODUCT, that offers donations or proceeds, is exactly monetizing a cause. I hate yall i really do.
They monetized off causes but you can't monetize a cause. Two different things bruh. With an exception here n there. It wouldn't be a mystery tho in those cases

Let's use this case as the example.

Black people have historically been mistreated by the dominant society in America. In 2018 shyt is still going down. Kaepernick took a knee to supposedly "bring attention" to the injustices that continue to happen :salute:

How does money change this situation sir, I'm all ears? The foundations that get money from kaepernick and the NFL. Are they for that cause? That's the cause I signed up for, when are we gonna get our justice? fukk that Nike commercial and I don't give a fukk how much kaepernick getting paid when he ain't saying shyt now but buy my t shirt.

The only cause being monetized is Nike's cause to get paid which benefits if the NFL prospers NOT IF KAEPERNICK does. Business first :ufdup: how has Kaepernick helped out the cause he took the knee for? Its a direct question, please don't give me an indirect answer :handshake:

He sold out, you are playing stupid, and you are contemplating buying this because you wanna appear cool. but for who?

Jedi mind c00ning, it's the African American way :manny:

You don't know what selling out means. He's not going against or altering his message for a price, so he's not selling out.

The fact that you think I'm contemplating buying this apparel just shows how ignorant you are. You clearly lack reading comprehension skills.

I've shared my views, Kappernick taking a knee had me and most black folk on some "why this half a nikka doing too much" To my knowledge he's never been associated with black anything. So he's not the guy for this.

Ultimately I was right, but he appeared to be right for the job for a minute. I've heard about his philanthropy work here but looking at it..it's not much more than some Donald sterling shyt (former clippers owner, was about to receive a 2nd lifetime achievement award from the naacp and then V.Stiviano happened)

Brothaz, the revolution will not be televised. Nike's interest are identical to our oppressors, they oppress there own to create their products but you think they give two shyts about your black ass?

The c00ning that is going on is a two front war. There are the c00ns that the coli will point out every chance they get, then there's the c00n mentality that is instilled within all of us. I call it Jedi mind c00ning :wow: Roland Martin yesterday articulated what that is so perfectly, if I could borrow just one minute of your times. From the 21:00-22:00min mark...

And while what he said is true, some of us have evolved past the mental oppression. Keyword "some"

Thing is, I'd buy that and probably never wear it. I don't like how it looks. Might cop anyway. I've spent more money on something less important in the last week.

With all due respect my G......

He’s a Kappa..... one of the 4 biggest black male fraternities.

Let’s be real it don’t get too much more “being associated with black anything” than that.

As a black person that went to an HBCU (Aggie Pride) I know how much our people who pledge take their frats and sorors seriously and they do do a lot of good things for the communities and exemplify pretty good and decent values

Like I get how there are a lot of “white washed” or “c00nish” black folks out there...... but I never really every seen one that’s came out of a black fraternity like Alpha, Kappas, Ques, Sigmas, AKAs, Deltas, and Zetas

Also, most frats ain’t all that “photo happy thirsty” like that

You do gotta know your shyt of you will get called out and smacked up. I’ve seen and heard mad stories about shyt. Their image overall is bigger than the individual.... so they not gonna just wanna take “photo opts” just cuz of whatever
