Loren, AGAIN…amazing work. Love your willingness to tell it like it is. It’s what makes you great.

However, as they said in Ishtar, “Telling the truth can be a dangerous business”!

The part that really hit home for me was at the end when you said how Jews and Whites don’t walk down the street calling each other racial slurs. Brilliant!

Loren,

It’s no surprise that black people have internalized the hatred, after being run-down by white people for the last couple thousand years.

My mother’s nickname for me growing up was “stupid idiot”, even though I was mostly straight-A’s until high school.

I made the top scores on my college boards in my class, but I thought I was stupid because my parents told me I was.

I never heard a word of praise for my accomplishments, only threats if I didn’t deliver the top scores.

I think black people have expressed an incredible
creativity in our society, and they do wherever they are.

There’s truth in what you say, but I think you might have mentioned that this racial self-hatred has been enabled by white moguls in the music industry, including especially some Jewish honchos.

They share the loot with losers like 50 cent, and then they become moguls. It’s self-perpetuating.

And let’s not forget Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone magazine– white people make money off the self-loathing, and no-talent bums like M&M are embraced by the likes of him and Elton John.

Bill Cosby may tell it like it is, but he’s a hypocrite. I have no respect for the man.

Maybe Black Uhuru made your comments go down.

@vince
“no-talent bums like m&m”
are you actually a writer?
do you have a grasp on marketing?
do you have any grasp whatsoever on pop culture or the art of the spoken word?
obviously not
or you would not be saying this

no matter what anyone says
you cant just put words on a cd and make millions
you have to be amazingly good at what you do
and eminem is one of the most talented people to have ever graced the business

M&M’s rhymes suck.

His ideas are bankrupt. It’s all about the moolah.

You’re out of your mind if you think you can’t just put words on a cd and make millions if you suck the right cock.

Loren,

Believe it or not, in Northeast Florida where I live, they have an annual Cracker Day.

All the proud descendants of the hardscrabble white settlers who came down from Georgia in the 1840’s-1880’s gather at the County Fairgrounds to celebrate their heritage.

I guess you know that in those days, a public lynching of a black man in the South was considered family entertainment, and folks would bring the whole clan for a picnic.

I dunno, the Irish came here and were HATED — they became cops and firemen. The Jews came here and… ok, so they were always accountants and lawyers, but you don’t hear them bitch about how hard it is to be a Jew.

Black people have that whole slavery thing to contend with, segregation, that part of it is different than what other groups went through. But you know what? It’s over. It’s been over for a long time. I hear about “the civil rights movement” — that’s over too. They won. They should be patting themselves on the back and congratulating themselves, and I’m not even being sarcastic about that. They should.

Instead they get doofuses like Sharpton and Jesse Jackson telling them how oppressed they are.

You ever heard about how they train elephants? A grown elephant is basically impossible to control. They’re incredibly strong and if you chain them to something they’ll either break the chain or rip it right out of the ground. So here’s what they do.

When an elephant’s little, they tie a rope around it to a stick. It doesn’t have to be a strong rope or a big stick; the elephant is little. It learns what the rope is and learns that no matter how hard it pulls, it can’t break the rope and it can’t get free. Eventually it just stops pulling.

You want to know what role “black leaders” play? They’re the ones tying the ropes, and then teaching people that they can’t be broken.

What a disappointing follow up. Let me be clear. There is nothing here. Empty, hollow, no substance or reason. Lacks compassion, tolerance and empathy. Certainly not what one would expect from a descendent of a similarly/historically oppressed race.

You say Imas was fired for picking on educated women by stereotyping, then you go into a stereotypical racist white guy’s narrow minded rant about all blacks. Man I don’t get you at all. You really could have done something with this and you wasted a chance that may never come your way again.

What brought this on? Have you been harboring this long? Bill Cosby is the only man of of color you think is smart? What channel are you tuned into, Nickelodeon’s reruns of I Spy?

You need to get out and live. I am serious. Go volunteer in a black community where you think change needs to take place. Where you think your view of life might benefit. Don’t say who you are or what you think. Just show up and experience life.

The only positive thing I can think to say is, you spoke your mind. That is keeping it real. The rest of your rant is a total generalization. No where near the truth and not a opinion shared by the majority.

You are on the fringe dude. Plenty of hate already in the world and you are only adding to it. Change takes time.

I hope you change your mind one day too.
