So were mine. I know their names and where they’re buried.
However…
Their descendant is free. He has an education. He worked a job making people safe. He bought a house. He has a family. He can read and write. He can walk around wherever he wants. He takes care of himself, his family, and his neighborhood.
My ancestors would be proud of me and the country I live in. They would be proud of the progress that was made. They would be proud of the freedoms we all have today.
You’re mad just for the sake of being mad. I’m happy and free because that’s what I am.
Al Sharpton, I did not listen to your demand.
You told Black people and Black business owners not to celebrate America’s 250th birthday.
I refused.
And today, on America’s birthday,
I am proud to celebrate with my America 250 Pancake Box honoring George Washington and this great nation.
I am Black, I own a food company, and Cousin T’s is proudly celebrating America’s 250th birthday.
Yes, I know America has a history of slavery. I also know I am not a slave, and I am not a victim.
You can keep trying to reduce George Washington’s entire legacy to slavery, but I refuse to do that.
George Washington helped build this country. He helped lay the foundation for America. Without him, this nation would not be what it is today.
America is not perfect, but it is still the greatest country on Earth. Millions of people around the world would give anything for the freedoms and opportunities we have here.
I love this country. I’m thankful to be an American. And I will never apologize for celebrating America.

Happy Birthday, America.
I'm pissed off.
X is a complete shitshow right now.
Payments are trash, views are rigged, and the platform is hemorrhaging real creators while garbage floods the feed.
There's a massive outcry from people who actually build this place and what does X do?
They trot out quotes from Elon like we're the problem.
Nikita loves reminding us that "the loudest voices are usually committing fraud."
Bro he was talking about criminals, not creators.
So now being angry about getting screwed makes us the frauds?
Bullshit.
We're not scammers.
We're the ones here to create, entertain, and make people laugh or think.
But X gives us ZERO guidelines.
No explanation on what actually gets paid, why some posts blow up, or what the algorithm even wants.
It's a black box of chaos.
Meanwhile, unverified accounts mostly from Nigeria, spam low-effort, disgusting, or straight-up weird shit and rack up 30 million views.
We bust our asses competing against that?
It's a slap in the face.
LOOK AT MY PINNED POST!
THAT DESERVES BETTER!
THE OTHER SIX ACCOUNTS THAT HELPED ME MAKE THAT VIDEO DESERVE BETTER!
I don't know if this is a crackdown against those who use AI but most of us have full-time jobs. We do this out of pure passion because we love creating.
We do this for a second income.
We don't have 8 hours a day to manually craft every pixel or script.
AI helps turn our ideas into videos, memes, rants, and images.
It's a tool, not a cheat.
If X expects us to grind like full-time studios without pay or direction, they're delusional.
This platform is losing its soul.
Real talent is burning out while trash thrives.
If X doesn't start being transparent, clear rules, fair pay, actual support for creators who entertain instead of enrage then I'm done.
I'll take my creativity, my audience, and my love for making people smile somewhere that actually values it.
Fix this mess or watch us leave.
The loudest aren't the frauds Nikita, we're the ones still fighting for this platform to be what it was promised.
Creators, sound off below if you're fed up too.
@elonmusk@nikitabier@X
🚨I am asking everyone that reads this to please comment "Watch the video @elonmusk"
Dear Elon,
Today I heard something that stopped me cold: the video my team and I created...the one people are calling "The Best AI Video Ever" exposed serious flaws in X’s algorithm.
This isn’t AI slop.
This isn’t brain rot.
It’s a complete, gripping story from start to finish. Pure entertainment. Masterful pacing. A genuine piece of digital art.
Most small accounts would kill for 400k+ views.
I’m NOT most accounts.
I can’t pretend this doesn’t sting, not when six other creators poured their hearts and talent into this project alongside me.
We built something special.
And if it weren’t for massive accounts and others who amplified it, this video would have been buried.
I don’t say this as a fanboy...
I say it as one of your platform’s strongest creators.
I admire the hell out of you and what you’ve built here.
That’s exactly why I’m speaking up.
The creators who are pushing the limits, especially with AI, deserve better distribution.
We’re not asking for handouts.
We’re asking for the algorithm to recognize quality, storytelling, and cultural impact when it sees it.
The video is pinned on my profile.
Watch it.
You’ll see what I mean.
This isn’t just about one video.
It’s about what kind of platform X wants to be: one that rewards real creativity… or one that buries it.
Let’s make sure it’s the former.
In freedom,
Mr. Star-Spangled MAGA
After almost two years on this platform I think today is finally the day I get your attention.
Please watch this. @elonmusk you're basically the main star of the entire thing.
@nikitabier this is the most talked about video on X right now and your garbage algorithm completely killed it.
If it wasn't for the big accounts reposting this for me it wouldn't have hit 50,000 impressions.
