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

[Consigliere]

Umm no one forced anyone to do Crack cocaine or heroin did they?

Put drugs in my face and I'll gladly return to sender with a label that says "nice try whitey"

Unfortunately the entire community isn't as smart as you.

And no, no one forced anyone to do drugs, but when you have a community filled with victims and weak minds, some of them will seek the solace of chasing a high.

I only brought that up to show why we lost our momentum after the mid 70's. We've recently started to recover from it and if we're lucky will have the opportunity to watch the same thing happen in white rural America.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

OP is 100 percent correct

I watched that video of Alton's kid crying out for his dad and these grown ass men behind him couldn't do shyt to make him feel any better. Those men just put their hand on his shoulders to comfort him but are as powerless as the kid. It's a fukking shame but a reality that most of these elders over 45-50 years old simple are disappointments that let us all down. And that means they are our parents/grandparents who just chose to not do shyt.

OP is on point. All these c00ns wanted back then was sex with the other side and the right to shop in stores alongside them. They didn't come with a real agenda because if that was the case, why did all of these other "minority" groups duck ride the "struggle" and get their shyt popping off? Native America basically got decimated into oblivion but at least their checks come rolling in each month. Black people in present day are LITERALLY descendants of those who built this nation for free and the only thing we get is the right to be shytted on and stigmatized for the world to see. Meanwhile, people pass thru the border illegally and get free benefits/jobs (albeit bullshyt ones), people wanna fall under the "minority" banner and get funds earmarked in their direction, folks wanna "transform" into another gender and have whole agenda backing them.

It's sad that only at the end of his life MLK was on some reparations shyt but by then he was a marked man. The goal back then shoulda been simple: we want $, power and to be left the fukk alone. It's like what kinda fukkin utopia did people expect to magically happen after the CR act was passed? When are y'all gonna realize that you have NO FRIENDS in this world. Even if your CAC friend of 20 years got pulled over with you in a car, the cops won't give you a free pass because you're smothered in his CACness.

Wake the fukk up brehs

And y'all CACs on this board can eat an eternal dikk. Play dumb if y'all want but y'all are links in this chain of madness whether y'all opt in or not.

Steve Harvey said young men are fukked up because of the older generation

So young women should get them an older man

I'm like does dude realize the hyprocrisy in his statement?

 

[Rekkapryde]

I was arguing with some old heads about this last week. Told them the reason why this generation is fukked up is because of them. They raised us. Case and point.

Acted as if we were gonna do what we wanted to do no matter what they said. When in reality they didn't teach us shyt. All they did was told us go get the biggest switch off a tree when we did something that embarrassed them. Never taught us economics never taught to not spend money on shyt that depreciates in value, because they don't even know. This is why I laugh when some old head thinks he's more wise or more knowledgeable than me. His generation was full of idiot baby boomers


Instead of proving me wrong with factual evidence, they decided to not take accountability, and took what I said personally. When you make a general statement and people get offended what does this tell you... It applies to them personally.

Throw a rock at a pack of dogs and the hit dog(s) will holler.

I agree too. Baby Boomers fukked EVERYONE. They got theirs and said fukk the future.

That's why it's key that nikkaz teach their kids basic shyt about finances and money management. When my kids get in high school, we going over budgeting, credit, mortgages, bank accounts,, etc. All that shyt that they need to know and peep game on how the system works. I can't tell you how many times I've gotten the Steve Harvey eyes from cacs when they see the people behind the great credit scores and shyt. I know they were expecting cacs when me and the ole lady walk in the offices knowing game.

Dog, My first car outta school was bought in my parents name. After my wife and I got married, she's like you need to get that shyt from under them and under you so we could get our insurances lowered. So I technically had to "buy" it from them and used a used auto loan to "purchase" it from them. My parents always thought that the dealer gave the best loans instead of the banks and ALWAYS used the dealers for car loans!!!!

I'm like

I was paying them like 800 every 6 months for insurance, but after I got it in my name, the shyt was like 490 every 6 months. I think I was gettin hustled.

Anyway man, you def on point with this shyt. To be honest, I'm putting them more on game now but you know how prideful mufukkaz can be.

800 plus credit scores across all 3 credit reporting agencies - both me and wifee. King Kunta! Takin NO losses!

Come on man, let's be honest. The vast majority of old black people can be split into two camps:

1. Those who have real knowledge but refuse to pass it on and instead sell young blacks the dream that we live in an integrated paradise.

2. Those who are living in roughly the same situation as young blacks and thus have no knowledge to pass on.

Older blacks who have real knowledge and are willing to pass it on a rare.

I understand that. I was simply refuting his assertion that all black people over (insert random age) are bible clutching sambos.

I'm pointing out that most young nikkas today don't even listen to conscious rap or people from their own generation who try to break the mold of ignorance, so why the hell complain about old people when you are basically a carbon copy of the people you claim to hate.

Those bible thumpers were the young fly nikkas of their age, zoot suiting it up, fukking white women and sporting conks, till they squared up. You think they gave a damn bout that "Back To Africa" shyt Garvey and them wa preaching? Hell no.

A lot of these entertainers ain't too "bright". I fukks with Steve, but he's still a comedian at the end of the day.

 

[The M.I.C.]

Claims this isn't person then proceeds to make a personal statement. If you don't care about me or my rhetoric why are you continuing to reply to me? Put me on ignore.

I've answered your question with multiple solutions and you still ask "what's the solution?"

One of the main reasons why our communities are in such agony is because what happens when we go to any corner deli, market, or papi store? We put money in Asian, Indian, and Hispanic hands. Those people take that bag of money that they make and take it to their communities.
Do you not see that as a problem?
More black owned businesses to recycle money back into black people's hands.

I'm the son of a black business owner and as I age I'm learning more about what it takes to take over my dad's business when he retires. Is that not an ideal situation for more black kids to be in? Black kids aren't afforded these luxuries because of the 76% out of wedlock birth rate. That's a fact.

I've asked you to come up with better solutions sense you know it all, and my solutions are soo trash to you, but you haven't yet.

Yet I'm the one not answering questions here...

Well for starters I will not be having any kids out of wedlock, putting them in a fukked up from the jump situation. I have the knowledge of how to manage money better than the average sneakerhead, alcoholic, nikka that's riding on 26 inch wheels.

I'm not financially stable as a 23 yo to even have kids. So that alone is doing the kids I will have, a huge favor.

Firstly, point to me where I made a single assumption.

Secondly what I answered your question with is something any intelligent mind would comprehend as a solution, especially when practiced on a large scale in our communities.

You claim what I wrote was Filler, and since you're older than me (I presume only because you called me younger fella), you would think you could critique what I said and offer better suggestions instead of personalizing this like the old heads I talked with last week.

Your generation failed, get over it. If it doesn't apply to you and you got your shyt in order, why are you so offended then?

Speaking the truth is not "complaining" or "bashing" Btw. That's just diversion tactic unintelligent minds come up with when hearing shyt they don't want to hear...

This deflecting fukk. I'm gonna let you self depreciating nikkas cry amongst yourselves this morning..I tried.

A lot of the knowledge they try to pass on isn't shyt that is practical nowadays.

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

 

[alpo]

Dr.x you is soon right! Don't let the agents get the best of you!

 

[TEH]

There is no plight.

It is easy for anyone to be successful and stay out of trouble in this country.

All you literally have to do is Excel in school and not get arrested and you will be very successful.

In terms of cops, all you literally have to do is be respectful and stay calm and you won't get shot. In all these cases the person getting arrested is provoking the cops in some way. Your ego is not worth getting shot.

^^^ The joy and obliviousness of being selfish. It must be nice to live in a buuble. It must be warm and sunny in there.

SHUT YO DUMBASS UP!

 

[The Mad Titan]

SHUT YO DUMBASS UP!

@DrX its a cycle. Soon this generation will get blamed like the last. My suggestion to you is offer solutions that are simple, specific, realistic and have deadlines. It's time to stop "crying." That's where and why older generations have failed as well.

 

[Bawon Samedi]

Agreed 100%.
