Agreed, but I think the divide and conquer only works if we participate. They need both sides of the divide to agree there is a divide. If we say "no, it's not about black LGBT or black women, it's about black people," ironically, we are agreeing with the divide they have made. But if we say...

Why not ask them what they have tangibly done for black LGBT? If BLM for example, is a black LGBT organization, what have they done for black LGBT specifically? Do they not think reparations for them is the best thing that can happen to solve their problems? And if it is good for them, isn't it...

I don't mean to compare or belittle experiences. I only mean to show, with humans, there's always more than is immediately recognizable.

I can see how you may have thought it was, but that's not my conclusion. I have not really offered 1 other than fighting the gay agenda (on at least some fronts) is too messy. But, I'm not applying anything to anyone. I'm sharing my story so if anyone encounters a black LGBT that appears to be...

If that is what you believe was my point, you're proving it. Why are you countering my experience? I do not see a reason anyone has to counter anyone else's experience. #Alllivesmatter is basically your response. Why? What does anyone else's experience have to do with mine? I'm making it look...

I see you understand what I was saying. This is exactly it. But I told you about my past, I did not say anything about ME today. You are maybe the 4th or 5th person to attempt to invalidate my experience by seemingly countering it with an opposing experience. Why? Why is there this need to tell...

I agree. At the same time, the universe brings painful things into our awareness so that we may heal our perceptions of them. Homosexuality is a part of you in that it is a part of the universe and you are the universe. You're not in it, you are it. Everything here is inextricably linked to and...

I'm attempting to foster compassion because looks can be deceiving. An LGBT black person could be perceived as putting their LGBT status before their blackness off of a misunderstanding. I just believe it would benefit us to have compassion for each other because it is possible that we are...

Agreed. I was just speaking on "the thing behind the thing". While nature may be randomized, it is not random. Everything that is here, that is happening is supposed to be because it balances something else.

All right. I say it because it's true. You cannot inflict pain without being in pain or inflicting pain on yourself. I guess you could call it a rule of the universe. You can observe this in the simplest of things and extrapolate to a larger scale, it's all the same. There is always balance...

I did say my black peers were largely unwelcoming (as generally is the case for misfits growing up) and (random) white people I did not grow up with were nice to me (as all people generally are when you meet them in passing). I said these things in the context of an general recounting of the...

I have shared what led to my depression. Summarized, I was believing in my false thoughts. As far as my homosexuality, in The Law of One, Ra says homosexuals generally show up in clusters of human beings. I assume it's just something nature does as part of its "balancing act."

If I think you're going to kill me, I'm going to try to kill you 1st. That is the survival instinct in an extreme form. If you have a group and can't kill all the people you think are trying to kill you, you make sure they never have the power to, you oppress them. The inferiority complex is...

I do not believe I misunderstood what you said. I do not contest people want black people to focus on and accept homosexuality. I could be mistaken but It seemed like you had also suggested that black people would change their sexuality so white people would like them. I was asking why you...

I have been taught by my spirituality to question everything. Virtually all of the ideas we (all humans) hold as settled facts aren't actually based on anything other than other ideas that aren't based on anything. At a certain point, we just collectively agree regardless and that's fine. This...

I had a conversation with another person on the homosexuals struggle vs. the black struggle. It came to me pointing out the structural (not content) equivalences, which he had expected I would do. It turned out to be a simple misunderstanding. Given a glass of water, I was pointing to the glass...

Why do you believe that is possible? You know people who changed their sexuality so white people would be nice to them? I believe we had a breakdown in communication somewhere. I shared my past. I misspoke if I came across as harboring anger towards you or black people in general, today. It...

I totally accept your opinion.

Uncontested. I was talking about when I was a teenager. I'm 40 now with much more insight into why people act the way they do. I know it is hard to believe, but white people are guilt ridden as part of their suffering that they brought on themselves. People have to thoroughly convinced...

Agree to disagree. Agreed. Black people as a group are not oppressing anyone. I didn't mean to convey the idea that I thought we were. As far as their rule, it's already over. It's "in the cards". There's nothing they can do about it. We're watching a dying dragon flail. Of course, a dying...
