We were all young and dumb at one point....My two cents about Secure the Tribe

Ok,Just hear me out pls. I think with LOTS of housecleaning and less male emotion the main core of secure the tribe will be ok. They're young guys and they're making young guy mistakes and I feel that if they stop the chaos,ease off the drugs and actually keep doing "pull ups" and things like that and less time talking crap in spaces they would get the recognition they want,but they also have to understand that they're the new kids on the block and the oldheads aren't just gonna jump on board with them until they put some skin in the game and some more wins under their belt...you gotta crawl before you can walk. Now the lady "Yaya" ain't got no business hanging with guys that young she needs to move around in my opinion,enough on that. Yes I have a Houston bias and for once I would like to see a young group like that from here set the right tone because it's been nothing but bs lately out here.We were all young and dumb once and alot of us didn't have social media to be dumb in front of the world like they're doing,so yeah with time I think they'll start to think with the big head and they'll be alright. (Don't drag me too bad in the replies it's just an opinion lol)

A man becomes better when he starts taking responsibilities. Doing drugs doesn't help anyone, I have said that couple of times and I honestly wish everything gets fine and become pretty cool for everyone aiming to become better. It is not easy for these young dudes since they wanna enjoy life at this stage.

    When we say young, how young are the? Are they in their early 20's? I don't know the actual ages. I appreciate your perspective but even when I was young and dumb I knew how to talk to the older folk in the community. These are some raggedy ghetto niggas with nothing to do all day but talk. I didn't listen to them much but all the fake thuggery over Spaces, the cursing, the bravado it all reminded me of the block I'm from. So you may give them some leeway but I don't see anything redeeming or "savable" in them. Those the type of niggas that will get you jammed up with the popos.

    Correct I've seen some of their profiles, they're not that young.. Early to mid 30's maybe.. They come from that lost generation..

    At the end of the day they were out there talking reparations based on lineage as well as related issues (immigration, etc..). That is something to build on. Some may argue they were doing it for clout. As long as many black voices are out there repeating it, I'll say its a good thing overall despite the other bullshit we keep hearing about. If the energy for the future is on doing the work, they can rebuild their new brand to some extent. They won't have Tariq or a few other big names (TBA for example, no way he's touching them now) but you can do good work without it.

    30's is not young so we have to take them for who they are. If they were 16 or 17 there would be some merit to it maybe even if they 22/23 but 30's naaaaaaah you all are just dysfunctional.

    A broken clock is right twice a day and we have to decide if that is worth all the other times throughout the day it is wrong. In this case I say no. People like #STT have the ability to splinter entire movements if they grow to be too large. Also with the sheer amount of ignorance they display they would be extremely easy to co-opt. So while they were speaking to the agenda they were a bit too reckless for my taste.

    My thoughts exactly. These niggas holding spaces ALL DAMN DAY LONG, yelling, screaming, and not doing anything productive.(I went to a space and couldn't get through 10 mins). There is young and dumb indicating a lack of life experiences. Then there is disruptive and chaotic, indicating they have no real agenda or purpose and their intention is to draw attention to oneself and away from the overall purpose which is tangibles for FBA as well as what's owed us.

    I don’t see how niggas can call secure the tribe young and dumb but the person they are defending makes puppets and cartoons of people. We just watched boochie bear last week.

    I think STT has been provoking Tariq for a long time and they are right to get the hand slap but I think it should have been done in private.

    Now I agree with Tariq especially defending his family......as the saying goes,"You come for a king you better not miss"

    But he also went for Meechie's kids so is he being hypocritical? If he went that route himself he shouldn't be acting like a victim when it happens to him.

    When you're young, you think you're invincible. The drugs and stuff won't hurt you, but we all know that's a lie. This will come back to haunt them as they get older, before long they're going to need to take responsibility for their actions. I hope they learn from their mistakes...
    Young fools turn to old fools.

    I was just on Tariq's and Rilla's twitter spaces and I was just telling myself that I may have spoken too soon based on the the things the callers were saying especially things like F Neely Fuller? NEELY FULLER?....They're going down in flames like ADOS I didn't know they were that disrespectful to the scholars and that's not gonna work.....at all

    That was my thinking also but the stuff I'm just now hearing about kills that name,yes they can still do their things but it seems like they're unstable and wouldn't be able to maintain themselves if no one mentions them,we'll see...
