@szln7c @OtomeBlkGrl Black Americans created Modern Music. Everything from Blues, Jazz, Rock and Roll, funk, disco, house, techno the list goes on. How are you going to tell me what my people made. And my point still stands dont participate in others culture but then demand others stay out of yours.

@szln7c @OtomeBlkGrl If you have a problem with Black people in Japanese stuff then dont listen to modern day music because it comes from my people, Black Americans.

[Aya @AyaBarrin99]

@szln7c @OtomeBlkGrl What are the top 3 most popular music genres in Japan?

Modern Pan Africanism is truly nothing but xenocentrism and low ethnic self esteem. You’re using the work of yt slave owners colonizing the Carolinas as a way to belittle Black Americans and assert the islands as some kind of parent group over Black Americans in the Carolinas. But you’re conveniently leaving out the fact that many of those Africans brought through the islands were literally fresh off the continent and were only seasoned in the islands for as little as 3–4 months to maybe 2 years before being shipped to America, these people weren’t “Caribbeans” in any way. And the majority of Africans brought to America were actually transported directly from Africa. So why is it that y’all never make the same argument in reverse? Why not make the case for Black Americans being a parent group over these island nations, considering thousands of enslaved people were transported from what would become the United States into the Caribbean? Many of those people were born and raised in the United States, had already spent years here, and most likely had already begun developing the early foundations of Black American culture before being forcibly transported to the islands. And considering the fact that enslaved people in the United States generally had higher life expectancies than those in the Caribbean, why is that historical connection never given the same weight? Y’all only seem interested in using history to establish Caribbean parentage over Black Americans, but never want to acknowledge the reverse relationship and we all know why that is

If I upload a movie clip to YouTube, I get a copyright strike within hours.

If I burn a copy of an album for a friend, I'm a pirate.

But AI companies can feed millions of books, songs, articles, and photos into a model, and it's called "training."

The artists, writers, and photographers whose work went in weren't asked and weren't paid.

Courts are still sorting out whether that counts as fair use, and so far the rulings are mixed.

But watching it play out, I can't shake one question.

When an individual copies something, it's theft.

When a trillion-dollar company does it at scale, it's innovation.

Same material. Different size of bank account.

Most modern billionaires are just so tacky. Go endow a library. Fund research and get your name on a cancer center. Sponsor an eccentric polymath who’s obsessed with marble. Build a museum. Fund public parks. Back climate research. Create something that outlives your ego.

[Rushi @rushicrypto]

The audacity of AI billionaires telling millions of people to prepare for a future without jobs while simultaneously telling investors their companies will be worth trillions of dollars. Somehow the future is incredibly profitable for them and incredibly uncertain for everyone else.

[fleatote @themusingnotes]

Tech companies crying because the midterms confirmed what we've known all along: AI is a fruitless technology and they sunk billions into other for no reason than ego and stupidity. You're not going to get that money from customers who got laid off by companies.

Fleeing Africa is the literal opposite of pan Africanism. You willfully migrated to subscribe to the “imperialism” you claim destroyed your 3rd world home.

Waving an African flag in your Twitter bio while enjoying the comforts of U.S. residency is the okie doke pannies fall for

@Blackcapitalis It merely regurgitates human intelligence.

AI is not intelligent. It’s just data collection.

Africans are using the death of Javits Frimpong as way to show their anti-Black American sentiments and attitudes. These are feelings we been knew they had about us. They are just using this child's death as an excuse to bring it out.

[El Jefe Cigar Padrino 💨 @CigarBaba777]

If I were Black American, I’d laugh at any African immigrant who uses gang violence to get on their high horse and look down on BAs.

Gang violence in America pales in comparison to the ethnic violence and genocides that have devastated certain countries in Africa.

[✨Olivia A.✨ @OliviaHoney25]

It's very telling that all of a sudden Africans can now understand that they aren't Black-Americans when they want to blame us for something we didn't do. From my understanding the area the Ghaninan boy was living in was majority African, Hispanic, and Caribbean.

[xenophobic Gringo rice farmer ⚫️⚜️🔴 @westphillybrown]

Calling Black Americans self centered for essentially being the face of THEIR country and THEIR culture don’t sound crazy af to y’all?
