Is it really even feasible for 200 million working age adults to have this mindset? Now that this whole capitalist system has been exposed as a house of cards we should really be advocating for a system in which everyone can thrive and live comfortably.


It's comical when I hear Black people keeping talking about an "alternative economic system" that somehow makes things better
Racism will always exist, and it's naive to think CACs will allocate resources fairly and evenly to Black people
This country was not made with Black people in mind. They traded one imperialistic system (Slavery) for another (Prison Industrial Complex). And somehow, someway there's still people who think CACs have Black people's best interest in mind

It's either gain economic power and do for self/other black people or get lost in the shuffle :yeshrug:



Unless you're the type that thinks we live in a Post Racial society, then do you breh :hubie:

This is why I look down on anyone saying "Were living it easy". No we're not. Aint nothing easy about relying on paycheck to paycheck all the time and have no credentials or skills under your belt. For years I've worked my ass off low teir jobs and general labour . I gotta learn a side hustle or college skills.

Isnt that life though? You have to adjust or adapt in order to succeed let alone survive How much adjusting/adapting you have to do depends on you or your situation. Evolving. You dont have to change who you are but you may have to change some of your ways especially if its holding you back or if its hurting you.

I somewhat agree. Its also comical to think that collectively, black people can some how obtain economic autonomy by working within a system that is inherently not for them.

Very true. Although I would say Arabs an Asians do it pretty well in their communities

I am also a big supporter of Black people Segregating from this system, as it's the only way to achieve true salvation

If you’re pursuing a passion that hasn’t yielded at least $50k in annual income in your bank account, you gone suffer.

Have a god brother that has been pursuing “music” for the past 15 years. Just sent me a text asking me what I think about this place that does blood plasma collection -400/month. :francis:

security > passion
Lazy ass breh can be a plumber and do music. shyt's called a day job

Better learn a trade then :ehh:

If I could do it all over again, that's the path I would have gone down

schools discourage though

I remember growing up going to a technical hs like borden or timothy eaton you were laughed at for being dumb, while those schools would teach plumbing, mechanic, tool and die
