    I'm getting sick of this bulls4it!

    ecently, equity, diversity, and inclusion have been the core tenets of left-wing political orthodoxy. So, with the news that Elon Musk would be leading a group of investors purchasing Twitter, one would think this would be celebrated by many on the Left. After all, an immigrant from Africa who received an Ivy League education and became a business owner and now leads one of the world's largest social media and tech companies should be the symbolic "dream" for Democrats and liberals. Yet, many have demonstrated a disturbing lack of enthusiasm.

    This is why we need to reclaim our voices in America. People are making jokes about this because we have been given the label "African American" when people who immigrate here from Africa, black or white, have the same label.

    We were taken from our land and forced to be here. We did not choose to immigrate here. Most of us don't know our history or ties to Africa and many of us don't feel included in America. So wtf are we supposta be then? This always bothered me.

    MSN, AOL, Yahoo, and too many of these other "liberal" sites are complete digital shitholes that cater to a racist audience. For racists, by racists. They know exactly what they're doing with that trolling ass, disrepectful clickbait garbage.

    Exactly there is nothing of merit in these statements. It’s white people taking jabs at other white people at our expense. We just have to stay focused. If we called ourselves the Black Elves of South Poland they’ll still find some way to mess with us.
