Honoring the Deplorable
Ku Egenti - *Watching The Good, the Bad and the Ugly*
The Best Western Movie ever! Fight me.
Muhammad Rasheed - Agreed.
Scott Newman - Nah. I prefer The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
Ku Egenti - Nope
Scott Newman - To each their own. I ain’t here to fight. I don’t hate The GB&U (not worth spelling out in my opinion, even though writing this explanation that I didn’t think it was worth spelling took far more time than just spelling out The Good, The Bad and The Ugly,) it just...isn’t great to me.
Ku Egenti - @Scott... I feel you sir..lol
Muhammad Rasheed - 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' is like a western-themed superhero fantasy story, with over-the-top skilled gun fighters. I LOVE that.
By contrast, 'The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford' is one of those films that pretend to a faux-realism, while typically leaving out dominant problematic aspects of the historic record, like how murderously anti-Black racist Jesse James was. While watching it, I found myself fundamentally offended at the film makers' attempts to humanize the creature to court my viewer sympathy. They could've nuked that whole town from orbit for all of me.
Ku Egenti - @Muhammad... you did your homework today
Muhammad Rasheed - lol The film was competent enough in its execution to make me want to look up who Jesse James was after I saw it (a red flag went up in the beginning of the film when they were wearing their very KKK-like train robbery disguises). Once I discovered his true deplorable nature that the film conspicuously covered up, I was furious, and regretted watching the crap.

Black Americans versus Politics
Black Content - Any black person calling themselve a Democrat or Republican, I honestly question your mental state.
Muhammad Rasheed - To be fair, we haven't organized and worked a political party the way we are supposed to for maximum gains since Reconstruction. 150 yrs of whites sabotaging your ballot makes me think this meme is just a propaganda scheme of our enemy.
Black Content - Both parties have had more than their fair share of time to reverse some of the damage they caused us, but haven't. Neither can name 10 policies/laws they have passed that benefited blacks only. The ballots aren't the only thing they sabotaged.
Muhammad Rasheed - The party itself is just a tool. We knew that back when we still had healing chain scars on our limbs. The special interest groups use the tool for political influence. Somewhere along the way we forgot that fact, and started waiting for the other groups to do OUR work for us.
Black Content - I beg to differ, both parties are trash and have continued to sabotage blacks throughout Amerikkkaz racist history. I'm not claiming either one
Muhammad Rasheed - Both will continue to be trash, begrudgingly giving us scraps here and there (only for their rivals to immediately snatch away) if we don't start organizing as a Black Political Bloc and doing the work ourselves. It doesn't matter which since the party itself is just a tool.
Black Content - Hows is asking to be treated humanely a special intetest? Civil rights isn't asking for something special. Is asking police to stop killing blacks is special to you?
Muhammad Rasheed - "Special interest" just refers to the socio-political identity umbrella that a particular group (LBGTQ, Hispanic, White Conservative, Black Liberal, etc.,) forms under to support & fight for their particular unique interests.
If after all this time, our efforts to plead to get other identity groups to do it for us has continuously failed, when are we ever going to take the hint and get to work? We don't have to reinvent the wheel here.
Black Content - I wholy agree we need our own political party. These two will never have blacks best interest in mind
Muhammad Rasheed - It honestly doesn't matter much what party we use. The amount of work we'll need to do to force our Black Political Agenda into reality -- and the fighting we'll have to do to do it -- will be the exact same. We may as well use this one we already have equity built into.
Muhammad Rasheed - It's interesting to me that the newly-freed slaves already knew all of this, and recognized the power of the political machine and the exact amount of work needed to pull it off. One would think that they would have been LESS sophisticated than modern Blacks, but this is not so.
This is clearly by design, and we were programmed to think politics is worthless for us as Black people. We need to stop listening to the enemy's advice and instruction. We'll have to do any worthwhile political work ourselves or it clearly won't get done at all.
Black Content -
Muhammad Rasheed - Look at it this way:
1) Fresh out of slavery we worked politics and literally rose from slave to congressman in less than 10 yrs.
2) Whites panicked and created the KKK
3) Vote suppression tactics began
4) 150 yrs later we avoid politics with suspicion.
