Lets be real, black elders are largely responsible for our current plight

[ryshy]

As a young black Ive gotten way better help from 20-50 aged blacks. The older ones r like I've said but there r a ton of wise black adults

 

[BmoreGorilla]

Its amazing how many young black people think they are so much more knowledgeable than there elders as if they have studied and traveled the world or read books thoroughly.


I have to laugh at it.



No


You clowns (me too) have google, and cell phones.



The younger GENERATION should be GENIUSES based on what we have now and the access we have now as compared to what the older generations had.


Wow, OP is a prime example of the problem with the younger generation, all the information and access to knowledge with no real world experience, drive or a necessity to make a change....but complains about it excessively.





Its like a nikka threw you out of a deep ditch and you complaining that you landed in the mud

I cant even comment on this thread breh. We've had elders literally give up their lives so we can even have the outlet to have these conversations. All this talk of Baby Boomers fukking things up smh. What did the Baby Boomers fukk up? How was our condition any better than compared to now?

 

[BmoreGorilla]

this dude is clearly a cac agent. i see him in every thread trying to be divisive and steer the convo using white supremacist talking points.

u got him on the cac troll list im assuming @BmoreGorilla

also, notice that 88 is a white supremacist code for Heil Hitler. H being the 8th letter of the alphabet

He's been on the list

I've noticed that the OP loves placing blame on everyone/everything else for his shortcomings & problems in life. I can't believe we have people downplaying the importance of the civil rights movement on this site

 

[1thouwow]

Y'all nikkas always looking to blame someone else instead of actively tryna do something better. @DrX the typical nikka blaming everyone else for why HE ain't shyt. Man up nikka

Nothing will change until we value the purchasing of power the same as the purchasing of materials.

What specifically did "we" achieve/gain from the CR movement?

 

[filial_piety]

20 years from now, the new genertion will make the same claim about YOU @DrX ...will you sit up and take responsibility?

 

[No_bammer_weed]

I've stated many times, thecivil rights movement was a farce. Back then Malcolm X was the only one really saying anything different, and the CR leaders hated him. The real reason why is simple, he seen past their bullshyt. The CR movement was for jobs and interracial sex. It had nothing to do with actually gaining CR's for black people.

Black elders are like grown children, they been on this earth for many decades and have NO idea what about the world they live in, no grasp on reality. Ask your mom, aunty, granny for advice and this is what you'll get "oh honey child, you just pray to Jesus, amen, yup, just pray" and this is the same advice that's going to turn u into somebody's bytch. And elder black men are flat out pathetic, most of these nikkas still talk like teengers, all they care about is trying to get young p*ssy.

Most of our elders never believed in themselves, and most of them given up on the youth. Alotta old black ppl simply given up on life and their goal is to collect retirement and dip off into the sunset, while leaving us behind in a racist capitalistic system. Great, now we're fighting an invisible bully. Racism exist and nobody is a racist. And we're integrated , so we have so many young blacks in multicultural social circles, who's been brainwashed to believe everybody is equal, while society has waged war against them. This creates confusion. And how can u blame them?

Our elders have been indoctrinated beyond belief, take their advice at your own peril. Your parents might love u, but that don't mean u should listen to them. Examine their life closely and decide if u should listen because if you're black and don't have a unique understanding of your self or this system, then chances are you're going to feel a lot of pain . I've seen it, I got family members that spend their whole life in the ghetto stagnant. Yes, if u don't play chess, you really will just rot in the place that your at currently. I got cousins my age that's finished, they've already given up on life.

Not so much because of the classic cliché 'theyre lazy' but the true reason is much darker. They're defeated mentally, their situation is so bleak they can't even vision themselves being something more. Most black men get celebrated for doing simple shyt like living to 30 , gradating high school, or staying on their children lives. That's pathetic, these are basic requirements of this society. The reason why we get congratulated, is because nobody believes in us.

Our elders don't believe in us, they don't have the answers. Their answer is to vote Democrat and praise white Jesus. Which has been proven to fail over and over again. IMO I don't care what nobody say, black America is in a very divided and docile state. The future is grim, dark times are upon us. Our elders don't give a fukk, they're ready to retire and die, and now we're out here alone at the mercy of the beast. And most of us, don't even know it. Me personally don't see no light at the end of tunnel or any happy ending for black America. Call me a pessimist

My initial instincts are to feel sorry for you. Its quite obvious you are consumed with an almost fatalistic sense of feeling failed by the older men and women in your life, whom raised you and existed in your social circle. It seems to have crippled your worldview, and any sense of peace of mind.

I had the luxury of being nurtured by caring, smart, loving black men and women, who encouraged my development. Never perfect, but always there for me. Those values instilled in me have served as an internal bedrock during triumphs and dark days. So I should have pity on you...

But I dont.

I read what you vomited it out, and I too become sick through your words. Your disgusting , racist agenda in painting older black people as dumb, valueless, and w/o courage is revolting beyond measure. Blaming innocent black people for these awful events (like any racist would do), you couldnt wait to use these recent tragedies as an excuse to pursue your ghastly agenda.

So Im angry. Im angry that a great man like Philando Castile had his life so unfairly taken away, while a worthless brat like you is still here infect the world with your aimless venom and bytchiness. You have zero concern for anyone but yourself.

It doesnt take a genius to figure out that when you talk about no hope for black people, you really mean yourself. You know you dont have the skills or qualities to make it, and you see a world that is leaving you behind. You try like mad to drag everyone else down with you, but like everything else in your life you're gunna fail.

fukk you, sincerely.

R.I.P Philando Castile

We have the highest spending power in the world and put it in everybody else's hands except our own. Claim to hate the white man but love making him rich. Even got songs that go "Versace Versace Versace."

The solution simple.

I keep reading and my mind is blown...

People died left and right just so these clowns can have the freedom to even have this discussion freely instead of fixing massa his plate and now fingers are being pointed like well if my daddy or mom would have taught me to....? To what?!? Invest in stock? Start up a business? About capitalism? Like blacks have only been free from slavery a little over a hundred years.


These dudes parents are probably in there 60's but cot damn they fukked us up right. They should have done more!


Stockholm syndrome at its finest.



All this information and these dudes are clueless as to how things worked before there was no internet or when you really could get beat down and locked up for walking through the "white part of town" When knowing how to ready was a luxury.


But they right your daddy and mommies great grand dad's and great grand moms didn't do enough for them.



I'm out of this thread, its depressing bruh.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

What specifically did "we" achieve/gain from the CR movement?

Are you f*cking serious

 

[MajorVitaman]

They fukked up because they didn't actually build anything to leave future generations. What did integration really get us? We still disproportionately go to failing schools. Businesses still discriminate (albeit covertly), and black men are still getting killed with no repercussions. I'm of the mindset that if we just kept building we'd be in a much better position. Who would watch the NBA and mlb if the negro leagues were popping? We're the biggest consumer group out there. Imagine if that money was circulating? We were sold out by the ones talented enough to be accepted by the dominate society because they were impatient and indifferent to the plight of us as a whole.

But at least we can PAWG in peace...
