I would go further to say that Martin Luther King Jr. would be a very unpopular man in today's society. In addition, many black people would consider him a "trouble maker."
Exactly though. Now black people go out and use his quotes and him in media as a bastion of light. People a lot of times call people who want to change something a trouble maker because they believe they may be punished for their acts of that person. Person passes away all kinds of tributes and how he was such a positive man and so on. Hypocrisy at its highest.
Just like they did back then? the man had a 75% disapproval rating just prior to his death.
CAC's hated him but people forget that a large contingent of black people thought he was too much of a "Rabble rouser" even though he was preaching non-violence.
So basically people never changed
It's true that there is cherry picking going on regardless of Kanye and his reckless moves. Charlamagne called Kanye a Nazi.
YET, no media is calling on Charlamagne for his past thoughts in an interview that would be called antisemitic just like Kanye's.
This is a media guy mind you saying this working at a radio station. Somehow Charlamagne has been able to avoid heat for his past comments unlike Kyrie who simply posted a documentary that is streaming right now on Amazon.
I just call it the way it is. It's cherry picking and the biggest thing of it all is if they had just ignored Kyrie's post no one would be even talking about this.
Are the book and film still available on Amazon? If so, has the ADL gone after Amazon, Bezos and Co. as well?
I feel like everyone is taking an L on this. Kyrie, the NBA, the Hebrew Israelites, the Jews, Amazon....BGOL. This whole thing is just dumb.
Yeah, I had this discussion with my lawyer friend last night. Why isn't the energy the same. He just went on a huge rant about Jewish people being a minority and guys like Kanye should know better smh. He still never answered my question on the whole inequality that happens in the media. I asked him why didn't Kanye get the business cancellation for his past antics that could have been seen as just as problematic?
He told me that was on black people and take note this is a black lawyer I'm talking about. I asked him when Kanye was saying things on black people and so on years ago why did they just somehow excuse it as mental health with no repercussions? He says we aren't as unified as a people and I told that Kanye said that in the Drink Champs interview.
He just says Kanye is problematic and erratic which is true, but still why did he become a billionaire before with his antics and NOW action takes course on him? Even the stuff about him liking Hitler why is THAT coming out now? I say that is partly fake outrage and just riding the media train for sensationalism and he disagreed.
Have these same journalists ever asked these racist cacs to their face if they're racist? Of course not.
This is yellow journalism at its finest
Exactly. Read above as some of this stuff is just better off being ignored as with other instances.
I wonder how this will go down being a woman?
If he is cracking, it's because he has no support.
No support from the player's union, no support from black media, no support from a lot of Black Americans who all feel the need to do public tap dances now for their Jewish bosses because we're in such a disadvantaged economic and social position.
Black people should take notes and note how all the Jews are on code about this.
You don't see any Jews jumping out in front of Kyrie to tell everyone "how good his heart is".
They won't for the most part because from some things people are saying is that everyone already knows the system is rigged. I then asked if it is rigged and understood why do we allow it? Crickets.
