Tariq Nasheed and online FBA movement turns against Prof James Smalls — Smalls accused FBA of being funded by State Dept, FBI and CIA?

[Buddy]

I'm over these convos but I hope everyone understands:

1. Professor Smalls has been a Pan Africanist virtually his entire life
2. Tariq came to HIM and similar Pan Africanists for content-- not the other way around.

So any talk about Smalls or Pan Africanism being an agent, "turning on FBA", etc needs to start at the source. I seriously doubt the man truly knew what it was all about before others advised him. He's just standing on his square.

Brehs gotta start evaluating why the floor keeps moving from under them with Tariq

B b but what about them sybau

Modern AA are the most educated group of black people in history, especially in the realm of socio-cultural machinations. Intra group divisions are natural but when you see it being applied on a racial scale then no real black man shouldnt be able to see the play. There is no excuse for us (I mean real pro black Americans, not agents and uncle toms) to lean into narratives created by racists for exploitation with history having taught so many painful lessons.

Whites exploiting existing tribalist divisions and warring empires is what made slave trading out of Africa boom. Prisoners of war and kidnappings were the product result of division and slave traders took advantage of that.

Now conviently as a white fascist regime makes a bid for power, clown ass do nothing nikkas attach themselves to a new brand of tribalism started by streamers. Folks spent almost 10 years beating their chest and bickering with "tethers" online yet has done accomplished absolutely nothing irl. like reparations are further away than ever, the FBA/ADOS era has begun with black folks losing civil rights our grandparents won and yall still wanna die on this hill. Mouth breather mentality

Moron wannabe cacs still trying to double down on these fakkit bickering narratives "they sold us" "but this tether on the internet said" man stfu. Yall ain't bout shyt forreal but being useful idiots for cacs

This is what I’m talking about yeah just be saying shyt and treating their made up narratives like it’s fact.

A real pro black American wouldn’t be opposed to fba, ados or soulaan

I have you been paying attention to California lately. How in gods name is reparations further away

The fight for reparations has never been this big, in history

Explain how tariq nasheed is not focused when hes the biggest platform on social media calling out white supremacy

If you identify as a black American, you should have no problem with identifying as a "foundational" black american

your too busy being a democrat-american thats your ethnicity. And you were happy with that

This nikka don't realize how much an oxymoron this post is.

Tariq is obviously on someone's payroll. He's a chaos agent and nothing more. You would have to be a fool to follow someone like that.

[Pull Up the Roots]

this post already cleaned the table. Stop with the babble.We are not your therapist explain the grift and the cult WHILE MAKING SENSE
or stfup

This is exactly the kind of cult-like evasion I'm talking about.

Instead of addressing a single thing I actually said about Tariq's own writing, his predatory groomer rhetoric, his misogyny, his conspiracy grifting, his constant infighting, his repurposing of white supremacist stereotypes and insults, his lack of any real political achievements, his constant jumps from hustle to hustle, you run away.

That's the exact behavior you see in personality cults: when evidence becomes uncomfortable, the follower shifts to something else, so they never have to confront the facts about their dear leader.

You deflected because you can't refute any of the evidence I posted, so you act like it doesn't exist, and retreat into sealioning, because you can't defend the substance. You can't even defend your contradiction in supporting Trump, but claiming you care about Black Americans.

Trump 2024

This is exactly why the "FBA" movement is a joke that goes nowhere. All you losers have are vibes and slogans and nothing else.

you're making the mistake of tying a personality to a movement. just like white people. but that's to be expected from someone like you. you see the world through white eyes.

tariq or no tariq, delineation is happening. call it FBA, ADOS, or whatever you like, but it is what it is. so keep on focusing on tariq.

The difference between “Tariq” and Professor James Small is that James Small is a visionary. He sees the trouble this can and will bring in the future. Tariq and his followers are short sighted people, with no vision ahead.

This is why Professor James Small has done more for Black Americans and has accomplished more than all of FBA combined, including Tariq.

If it was so impactful, major players would have invested in the Hidden History Museum, when it was announced. It’s not, because it’s mostly an online thing. The weird part is that the separation innately was claimed over reparation. Something that was not even claimed by Black immigrants. Regardless of this fact, it’s longer the center piece of the argument. In fact it’s not talked about at all. It’s all about a comedy club and who can tether the most to white suprematists. Nothing serious that can and will bring actual tangibles.

 

[kingofnyc]

Because it causes division amongst the black disaspora and has literally achieved nothing. Division amongst minorities is literally directly out of the CIA/White Nationalist handbook. Like plan A




Yall think calling people Tethers online was some Black Power shyt? You really thought cacs were threatned by "dont vote"??? Are you fukking fr???

You politically organize, you vote, you lean into community.

These are all things that have been demonstrated as effective by other communities yet I'm sure some of the folks reading this rolled their eyes at "vote" because Tariq & friends conditioned them that way. nikkas think arguing with foreign black folks on the internet, chanting slogans and donating to livestreams is doing something.

Which is exactly how white racists want it.

dose this have to do with anything …

this ridiculous notion about causing division is simply nonsense = yes we wanted delineate because after decades & decades & decades we finally get the message that we’re better off by ourselves …. then this so-called mythical disaspora that pretty much has done nothing for us

you keep posting an excerpt that no one cares about

All of it is inconsequential to the movement itself. Fba is the biggest movement moving now if no one cared you wouldn’t be in here writing essays

It depends on who you ask. A lot of people have certain feelings about this book, in particular this page. Especially women, because they were the ones who brought it up first. Black women don’t want to be seen as potential hoes, sexually abused etc. They want to be secure and save.

It’s extremely cringe and criminal to look at a child like this. You are telling us it’s no big deal? You are basically telling us to close the “Black Epstein files”.

Dr. Reggie A. Mabry was raised under, and was trained by the people Tariq has on his museum wall, and in The Hidden History Museum. The irony. lol smh
