Lesson #1 in wealth building...When you have nickels and dimes, you need to get dollars. When you have dollars, you need to not get nickeled and dimed.
@EaglesXsandOs wide receiver 3 yards of closer to the sideline (important, JUMPING to catch the ball), let the receiver catch the ball and carry him forward (towards his goal line) and place him out of bounds. He keeps his forward progress but never gets two feet inbounds.
Ok, now you're getting to the root of things. When I go out to cut my grass, I may kill some ants, grasshoppers, crickets and the occasional frog. From their perspective I'm a mass murderer, for me their deaths were incidental to my goal.
If you can understand this analogy, you will understand how the world works. A lot of what people perceive as racism or imperialism are actions of the powerful trying to keep or obtain more power (power games). You may want to sit down for this, but to some in power, you're perceived as ants and grasshoppers.
To combat this, you need to stop with the racism crap and understand it's about power. It's not about black ants versus red ants.
@DeeNova718@YawoElvn Of course lynchings happened, WWII happened, the Moors conquering southern Europe happened. What's your point? It's 2026, no one cares. Just about every group of people on this planet can find a historical reason to hate another group of people on this planet. Move on.
Thank you for your response. Letโs take these separately. By your response you seemed to be saying the โtheyโ in my question of who is trying to kill black people is the government. My question would be why?
Now to your points about how โtheyโ are doing it. First, Hoover, there appears to be no evidence to support your claims in my non expert research. My research indicates it was a theory floated in the 60โs not backed by anything and further debunked after the declassification of files from the Hoover era.
LBJ and the draft, this one Iโll give you. There is evidence local draft boards were using race to make draft decisions. There was outcry about this and Nixon responded in 1969 to go to a lottery system to stop this and other abuses from local draft boards.
Reagan, the CIA and cocaine in black communities. This is a classic case of conflating. Long story (and itโs very long since there was tons of discovery and trials) short, your assertion came from Reaganโs Contra policy that tolerated cocaine trafficking (for a purpose that had absolutely nothing to do with the black community) he was frying bigger fish with this policy.
Bottom line. First the good news, your examples are 40 plus years old, itโs 2026. It๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝs more about the content of your character these days, is there still racism, sure; 300 million people in this country, shit happens. Is the government actively working against black people? I donโt see it, your mileage may vary.
Ok, let's discuss. I'll approach this like I try to approach most things I hear that sound incredulous. Teach me. Who, specifically, are "they" the guy in the video is referring and how do "they" avoid criminal charges, arrests, punishment etc.? Let's start there, I'm sure to have more questions with your response.
@jim8oy First they came for empty homes, I didn't care because my home is owner occupied with my wife and two children. Then my children moved out and then they came for empty bedrooms. Oh dear...
@Commando_Mane Confucius say "sometimes answer to question is in the question" Dallas, Philly and Giants play a 5-12 team twice. Who is this 5-12 team young grasshopper?
@alphafox 14% tax and you're worried about the tip amount??? Well played Government, you take 14% and have the people providing the food/service and the customer fighting with each other.
@carrynointerest Ok. Letโs add color (real world) to this hypothetical. First, thereโs a low level manager working there (for about 10 years) that could have told you all of that over lunch.
Then, this low level manager would have explained why โraising pricesโ would not work.
@gman6199@chadloder@DevyEusuf "youโre probably taking fire" THAT'S WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. You take the fire and the attention from the kids. Damn, fuck! Man up and save as many kids as possible.
