The Cookout

[Victorystatus]

Everyday I get a lot less patient with outside groups making sophomoric questions and microaggressions that deserve a swift backhand when it comes to the subject of reparations. When ToadTalks and Strappy were a thing, their friend TheFunkyAcademic hosted a white scholar who admitted at that time (c. 2018), there was $88trillion in total wealth in America. The Brookings Institute has since made an update to the total wealth and that number as of June 2019 is $98-$113trillion and that is minus liabilities as well. I under the belief that we are owed $21trillion, but also every year we are ignored the priced goes up by 1, that put us at $23trillion. Saddest part of the diasporas issues with us is that they come from countries that are affiliated regions (Caribbean Commission and African Union) that literally going to the EU nations for reparations. "You gonna scam with that muney neeeeega"

We may never get reparations, but the mental shift that is happening with our people, the Code being formed is what will pay off for us. Everyone has been put on notice, let's see how many will F' around and find out. The Democrats are going to be the first casualty. First, they will get the house and senate snatched from them in the mid-terms then the White House in 24, if trump runs, he will win, and it's pretty much a wrap for dem's. permanently.

Imagine if we see the death of the Democrat party right before our eyes? See them turn into the Whig party at our hands. That would be marvelous.

There will never be reparations. It would have had to happen already. Pardon my pessimism but greed runs through the veins of children from slave owners. Do you think they will give up any of their wealth?

These old white dudes only care about their family wealth and ensuring they stay at the top. Until we see this two-party system in America change, nothing will. This is why forming communities like this one helps. Wakes more people up.

You're assuming reparations is coming as charity when it's coming by force. The reason we haven't gotten it is because we haven't shown that we are willing to pay the ultimate price to get it. When Malcolm X said and I paraphrase "if we can't be comfortable, it all has to burn" that's the mentality that we have to adopt. We cannot let society be comfortable in our discomfort. We need to discomfort to be felt by everyone and at that point the Government will have to make a choice, pay us or fight.

Right, this was not what I was thinking. I was thinking in the sense that we protest enough, they will finally listen which will never happen. And yeah but force, it will get done. They will not be able to ignore a large enough group armed and ready to fight. They will be risking too much.

We never got anything by asking, so yes gotta keep that pressure on 'em.
