No group is.
A group that fails in every single metric is not well-adjusted. Other groups outperform Black people, so they are more well-adjusted than we are; and this is mostly by design.
Understanding this fact isn't bad and is the step needed for us to finally start acting in sophisticated ways where it concerns the metrics we fail in, framing our problems using data and history, and most of all, our political advocacy.

And that idea was corrected in the other thread by pointing out the fact that virtually all CEO's are part owners of their businesses.
Also 100% business ownership is rare because it's virtually impossible to do given the complexities of setting up and running a business since people bring different skills and advantages to the table.
But by the logic of some Bill Gates and Tim Cook aren't "bosses" and are "mascots" since they don't fully "own" Microsoft and Apple respectively.
Refusing to acknowledge that though leads to absurd arguments like some in the Black community put forward who rail against successful Black people, particularly Black men, by saying well you don't fully own what you have so you're not really doing anything special.
Or you're not selling healthy goods so you're a terrible person.
Not realizing that if they did sell healthy products that the goal posts would be moved and they'd claim well they're not really healthy or why are you not 100% in charge of your business?
Or why don't you give away all your money to Black people so you can be broke like them? And other nonsensical arguments that are used by anti-Black Black commentators who despise wealth building in the Black community for some reason.

Is 50% ownership not considered ownership in your eyes apu?
“Diageo and Combs will each own 50% of the "ultra premium" tequila, which sells for up to $90 (£55) a shot. Both parties declined to state how much they paid for the brand, created by American former banker Brent Hocking in 2009.”
“Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs buys premium tequila brand DeLeon with Diageo
The rapper will own 50% of the brand with the British drinks giant holding the rest”I’m really curious to see your reply on how owning 50% of a multimillion dollar company doesn’t make you an owner or a boss
I don’t even care for Diddy but cmon
But... He had to. Being that that's what he negotiated in the beginning and what he was owed, who did he mislead? Shame he had to do it but business is business and people steal but was who he said he was and could prove it.

yall throw these terms out loosely.
Diddy is getting drunk and fukking 20 year olds (which is his right) ... he's not a CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER of anything important.
he's a mascot
Look, he's entitled to his money but we gotta stop lying.
