The only correct answer in the US is "Hitler is the most evil man in the world and what the Nazis did to the Jews is the worst thing to ever happen to any group of people in the history of the world." Anything else is anti-semitic

[EndDomination]

The problem with this is Erykah is encouraging her “free thinker” ideology which connotes people shouldn’t be quick to condemn others without doing their homework. Sounds fine in principle but to invoke that name of all historical figures(villains) is trying too hard to be different.

bump for you Sammy Davis, Yaphet Koto, Shyne dudes out there.

Will triple down on what I've been saying.

Perhaps some of you just don't live in metro areas with high jewish populations and don't know first hand how they get down, or maybe you are really that naive

Maybe seeing some of the recent stories of Black celebs taking a knee to these folks will make the picture even clearer.

I forget sometimes that we're coming from different backgrounds in terms of experiences, education, and how we were raised...but eventually the same realities are learned by everybody.

You gonna learn, Tre

@Get These Nets Wrt that I’m pretty “aware” well-acquainted with how many of them get down (landlord, presence in neighborhoods etc). I still find it alarming to invoke that name (Hitler) in particular when you can perfectly critique how they gather in communities or own in other neighborhoods for example without it. It def diminishes the valid points by inviting extremist discussions on both sides.

I am not co-signing any of Ma'am Erykah Badu's statements but I do find her to be a physically very sexy woman.

Over 10 million Conglonese were murdered and mutilated by King Leopold. That is the worst genocide and mass murder in world history. Yet never mentioned for obvious reasons.

Other than that , yes there is no reason to prop up a mass murderer for what he did to those people
