    As much as I would love to see it, people aren't united enough on anything to do a million-man march.

    People are too damn selfish today. You'd really have to really to get people to step up and come out. I don't know if it is possible. Maybe if he can get a bigger name with a bigger following to get on board, something might come of it.

    I somewhat disagree. This would be several thousands of already LIKE MINDED people linking up. Before, being "black" was the only qualifier, this time its a gathering of on code B1/fba/ados/freedmen/niggas who want reparations for real. I think the turnout will be big

    I do not agree with this take, Black Americans are on the verge of the next Civil Rights Movement.

    See this is what I don't understand... you can't hate on him and follow his lead at the same time, right? Shouldn't you following his lead negate your gripes with him?
    The code is the leader. If he is amassing Black Americans it makes sense for me to support because it is in my best interest. I don't have to like someone to get down with their movement. You have to put interest over likability.

    That's true but im assuming your dislike for him most likely stems from you thinking hes a is a scammer/grifter, which is everyone's criticism of Tariq.. But it's like... he moves the fucking needle for our people, so the fact that he gets paid for what he does isn't a scam or grift. The nigga hustles in a good faith way, not a bad faith way. And again hes very influential so i don't mind him being compensated for pushing BLACK EMPOWERMENT

    You're assuming why I don't like him based on some other shit. I don't like that nigga because he doesn't do scholarship. The only time he is on point when he is repeating Neely Fuller or Frances Cress Welsing. When he speaks from his own perspective he is the Black Alex jones. When Nipsey died he was talking about military precision with the killing and using words like "people are sayin" so he doesn't have to own the words he's saying. Now he has an FBA cult going on and we see niggas like Secure the Tribe that went ape shit with it. That's why I don't like him I don't think he a grifter or a scammer I just see him as a hustler.

    He has the visibility to do it. He has the marketing infrastructure to promote it. Him saying he’s “Doing it, ie marketing the event vs who may very well be Billed alongside him are 2 different matters. Of course he may want to promote & be the single solitary face of the event. Very unlikely but possible. At any rate I AM READY 2 GO 1657435669290.png

    I would be happy to be proven wrong. I know there are a lot of our people fed up out there but I have met so many people who want change and aren't willing to do anything about it. This is especially true for the middle-of-the-road folks who think we can make changes through voting as if it isn't rigged.

    Hope it goes well. Ol' boy be on some bullshit, but this could be good.
    If you're saying this that means a lot because you're our resident skeptic.
    Am listening to the Replay, seems legit, & he seems to be making clear that he is soliciting responses in an attempt to gauge, & measure support for the idea of organizing and executing this type of Operation. Sounds like a Go‼️ View attachment 3398
    Absolutely. It would be epic and would be a huge tone changer if we can get a couple hundred thousand Black Americans to the Capital.

    I think that is a part of what being on code is about. If TN is following the lead of the agenda and putting in the work, then gripes don't matter. Other groups have ppl who can't stand each other personally but ignore their gripes when it's time to get on code against us.

    I thought that Tariq said one time before that marching would not get us what we want.
    He said hes not against marching in general but just the way it's been going down recently where blm protests alot but they don't make demands. His march is about making demands

    Cult? Um you and anyone else need to be careful with this kind of mischaracterization and language when describing the FBA lineage and FBA people as an ethnic group. Cult, hate group, bots, trolls, bullies, hate organization, terrorist organization, gang, etc. are the same type of words that are currently being used by agents, racists, Democrat shills, operatives, anti-Black / anti-FBA individuals, informants, and undercover intel in order to invalidate us and our needs and to also deliberately mislabel us so that TPTB can wrongfully put bigger targets on our backs than they already do now. I know you are not fond of Tariq, but let's not do this.
