What happened to all the reparations talk and threads that were prevalent in TLR a few years back

IDK about real life but it seemed to die on the Coli when Tariq started beefing with Yvette and started FBA, separate from ADOS. Now things are just a mess and main goal of FBA seems to be shytting on Black immigrants. Yvette and Tone movement seemed to be more focused on repatriations but the Tariq beef did a lot of damage to the ADOS movement..


I barely see Yvette threads anymore..


Just my objective observation, I'm ADOS and I want reparations obviously but I'm just calling it how I see it

She's so fake I wish Warren was VP. Joe is on the clock, if he don't start sticking to his word he gonna be a one term president.

Warren wouldn't have done shyt except be an annoying white woman with a chip on her shoulder, probably woulda been even worse than Joe with her thinly veiled neoliberalism BS

At least Kamala is just there to be the token and has zero motivation to do anything. It's actually better for us because we can see how how garbage and performative the DNC is for the millionth time

 

[Ineedmoney504]

I don't think Tariq or Yvette have.

And for that matter, neither has Cube.

I know folks ain't gonna wear it, but none of them are serious. If they were serious, the way to reparations is through the Congress. Congress controls the money of the United States of America.

A simple google search will reveal that to you.

But none of them have drafted a candidate, publicly threw their support behind a serious candidate who is running on the platform of reparations or anything like that.

Why?

Because it's all a grift. I don't know how much clearer it has to be for folks to understand this.

ice cube got shytted on so bad I woulda gave up on the black community also.

Because we were all told it was more important to get Trump out of office and wait until Biden got in to bring up reparations

 

[DaHNIC82]

Folks sided with or wanted to parrot Conservative CAC viewpoints over black liberation. Go ask the Dems or the GOP​

Nah Warren would have challenged Joe. Kamala just wanted the superficial status of being the first female Vice President. Biden knew this and that's why he chose her. Warren would have been just as petty towards the Republicans as Joe should be.

Man get outta here with that mess. If he was really serious about it, he still had ppl supporting him.

He wasn't serious about it.

That's literally what I said she would do. But it wouldn't have played out like how you think. She has always been out for self and is no different than Joe, probably even worse.

 

[Neo. The Only. The One.]

Don't know about Tariq - but Yvette has.

But, remember --- the movement doesn't have a leader -- many are doing things locally and working together to get things popping in their hometowns and in the areas were their ancestors were enslaved.

No grift. Why would redress be a grift?

Who's doing what? Don't we all need to know so that we can support any good efforts to get our redress?

If you can show me what's going on, then I'll take back my statement about it being a grift.

But don't all of us need to know what's happening? Right now, judging by this thread, you are the only person who knows what's going on.

Please share it with us here, or start a separate thread to speak on it.

Notice how the first response to this thread was a Kamala Harris gif as if this has anything to do with her and then a bunch of sub-right wing talking points about Democrats.

Thats why the shyt is dead. Thats who these "reparations" threads really attract. Was nothing but a ruse and a viral atrempt to get black people to "stop voting Democrat" ahead of elections only to help advance Republicans. A great deal of those obsessed "DeMoCrAtS aNd iMiGrAmTs sToPpInG oUr ReParAtIons!!!" eventually revealed themselves to be MAGA idiots and disappeared or got banned.

These phony revolutionaries only get woke once every four years and they direct their efforts exclusively towards joinnng forces with the alt-right and spreading smears against Democrsts and immigrants on the internet. There aint an election right now to try and keep black folks from voting in or engineer in favor of Republican candidates, nor is their a yee haw Republican President in office for them to fantasize about giving us reparations if only we hold out and maybe support the guy (right Ice Cube?? Ice Cube where are you?). So apparently at this moment theres no reason to bring up this cause.

OP, you have about 100-200 posts with “Reparations” from over a 7 month period in 2019-2020.

Less time arguing with fools online trying to instigate and more time behind the scenes planning with actual like minded people who support the causes is the main reason. Also knowing a lot of usernames aren’t who they claim or are actually foreigners with no ties to American slavery seem to take over.
