this is the 2nd time you've read, and then completely ignored my origin point to you..which was about the "great men" founding fathers who owned plantations and human beings...and whether you'd raise an eyebrow in the presence of a person who called them great men.

You have your own reasons for that, but just putting it there again for the record.

I don't think you notice the puppet strings that media has on people. What gets covered and what doesn't. What people are supposed to care about and not.

My "beef" with white jews stems from picking up on this media manipulation when I was 15. Most recently though, the "beef" was heightened by the same people who bring up the holocaust every 15 minutes doing a complete media blackout about the treatment of the Ethiopian jews and Black immigrants in Israel. And decades earlier a media blackout of Israel doing deals with South Africa even after global condemnation of the apartheid there. If the Apartheid system wasn't evil, I don't know what was

So excuse me when I laugh about jews crying over Hitler, or when I cringe about Blacks falling for that.

This is a great point,I don't know if I would raise the same eyebrow about somebody calling the founding fathers great men:jbhmm:?Even knowing they weren't shyt,their names haven't been brainwashed to give the same feeling as the name Hitler.

But I think its okay for black people to get upset about Hitler,and any black person cosigning him. When he was in fact a white supremacist,and in fact one of the greatest inspirations for current white supremacist still to this day,arguably the greatest symbol for them. White supremacist have made that nazi sign be a symbol of hatred for us as well. So its a little disingenious for black people to try to wash their hands and act like only Jews and people who love jews would have a problem with Hitler. I got my own seperate beef with Hitler and the people who love em,who hate us today:martin:

WRONG :ufdup:. There has to be a level of skill in a piece.

You can have an emotional attachment to a work but, all bad pieces lack things like depth, clarity, understanding of light and shadows,nuanced brushwork, interesting/provocative themes, etc.



Fetching upwards of $100 million, there're pieces that lack much of what you believe constitutes quality art. It's all subjective.

What Erykah Badu said was reprehensible. No matter how "good" his "art" was is worth some bullshyt attempt of humanization of the most destructive monster in recent history.

Black people were living in Jim Crow during Hitler's rise. You think they agreed with you? :mjpls:

She just said something that is logical and sensible.
Funny how jews can say good things about racist pieces of shyt like George Washington, even want to protect his monument, which he committed genocide against native americans, owned slaves that he tortured, and murdered his own poor white soldiers when they wanted to leave because he didn't pay them.

LOL

White tears

Bet the interviewer thinks racist ass FDR who treated black americans worse than Hitler did is a saint.
Bet the interviewer can always find a reason to excuse Truman needlessly dropping a nuke on the Japanese as well. SMH

Go play:mjlol:

Hitlers art wasn't good enough for any self respecting black person to get around his ideology of black people,and him being a mass murder.

His art looks like the shyt that comes with the frame:mjlol:

If a cac said this I wonder if you would cosign and defend?if not don't tell me about your fake ass "depth",you fukking clown:martin:

you overlooking the dumb shyt she talking about because she is talented. At least her talent and ass arguably outweighs her stupidity,unlike Hitlers art:laff:

You think this is about his art? Eat your cereal and shut up dummy

This is a deflection that’s why I ignored it. Nobody has mentioned the founding fathers but you. Nobody has called them great men.

You have your own reasons for that, but just putting it there again for the record.

I don't think you notice the puppet strings that media has on people. What gets covered and what doesn't. What people are supposed to care about and not.

Again, your “I don’t care about “Jews crying over Hitler” talking point is an irrelevant distraction. This isn’t about Jews crying over Hitler. I don’t care about white Jew tears either. This is about erykah badu saying that she saw some good in Hitler because he could paint. That’s a stupid comment no natter what you think about white Jews.

Contraction for "there are." A lot of people use there's, but that's grammatically incorrect, since it's only applicable to plural usage.
:mjlol:Ok
To your initial comment, people aren’t spending that much money on Hitlers work cuz they’re “quality art”.

Wasn't even referring to Hitler's pieces. Basquiat's work doesn't meet any of your criteria for good art, but they're auctioned off for hundreds of millions of dollars.

It's pretty much selective outrage

If she said she agrees with Hitler's racial views, then sure, there's a problem with her. But here, we honor our own Presidents, many of which supported racism and genocide. How many millions of native americans were extinguished? Millions of blacks enslaved or killed? Much of that eugenics philosophy espoused by Hitler actually came from America. Doesn't stop Americans from essentially calling these Presidents heroes and 'looking for good things' in them. This is a nation where David Duke, one time grandmaster of the KKK, is essentially left unmolested.

I respect your take. Mine is different.I read the interview. The line of questions about her "recent comments" weren't coincidence, and the interviewer even mentioned the awkward segue he had to find to even introduce it t the conversation.

(While doing research for the interview I found out your comments) No, more like my editor told me to ask you this question so you could apologize or clarify your comments about Farakhan.

Hitler is the jewish bogeyman. Person targeting Blacks and not jews hardly registers on their radar unless they feel it can affect them ..as my point about Israel doing deals with Apartheid regime South African govt illustrates. Not only was the govt. of Israel doing what was in THEIR best interest by doing the deals, the jewish owned press blacked out the story of them doing this in THEIR best interest. Jews working with white supremacists in South Africa and simultaneously crying about Hitler?Would be a joke if it didn't insult my intelligence. So. like I said excuse me while I sit out the part where I'm supposed to be offended by anything EB said.

2 of the biggest stars in the world at one time Will Smith and Halle Berry shivering in fear at thought of offending jews never sat right with me. Last I checked they are people just like we are.
