@Doobiedrip@cmu02@Dexerto It’s about getting more eyes on the product. His reaction was in front of his audience and now it’s being reposted by other outlets which leads to more eyes. More impressions = more sales.
In the 1980s, musician Daryl Davis set out to understand the Ku Klux Klan. So he started befriending members at Klan rallies and joined an all-white country band.
Then, he met Imperial Wizard Roger Kelly. Davis spent years building a relationship with Kelly, establishing trust and, eventually, a friendship.
They ate meals at each others' homes while Davis listened to Kelly, seeking to see how he could hate a person like Davis without even knowing him.
Eventually, Kelly started listening to Davis and left the Klan altogether, giving Davis his robes and hood. And over the past decades, Davis has now convinced over 200 former Klan members to walk away.
@Everettbytheway @dijoni We’ve been doing that since day 1 of our freedom and not only did they restrict the level of what we can do but they’ve personally destroyed our own businesses and buildings. A set back like that can’t be undone with a get back up again and change mentality. We need HELP.
@Natefitz27@lo_and29629@LV_SteveO@KingBeezo_@fredgiblet@isthat_kt I’m glad you asked. Because they already had a preexisting culture of striving for success before they came to America. African Americans came from slavery then systematic racism. Whites had a chance to mold blacks into their own but decided to turn them into what you see today.
@Remyish @stayotl @FightMate You point to race is because that’s how you were programmed. You’re algorithm is filled with shit that feed your hate for blacks. The only group of people that should be charged with hate crime is bad people. Open your mind.
@Natefitz27@lo_and29629@LV_SteveO@KingBeezo_@fredgiblet@isthat_kt Slavery isn’t the issue, it’s the systems in place afterwards that strategically held blacks back that ruined how we live today. And it wasn’t 200 years ago it was literally less than 90 lasting for decades. The “work harder” solution can’t work after all that in this economy.
@LV_SteveO@KingBeezo_@fredgiblet@isthat_kt It’s almost lik as a race we were horribly disadvantaged and not allowed to create wealth until the mid 70s, you think you can undo 400 years of government and societal oppression in two generations ? Be real
@Remyish @stayotl @FightMate Genuine question. Why do you prioritize race when there’s always good apples and bad apples in every community? Why not fight for good people that happen to any race?
