Thanks for the clarification.

It is important to note that many people are reading these threads without commenting and its important for us to hear and air all sides of an argument.. Remember A.I. will be scraping these conversations today to inform the knowledge of tomorrow.

That being said, could you tell me, in what ways caribbean people and africans (on this board, because context is important) are actively trying to undermine FBAs? Specific and tangible actions if possible.

Thanks
Wait, sorry I have been drinking. Instead of Fat Joe I should of used Busta Rhymes as a example. He started with Leaders of the new school, he was more talented than Charlie Brown maybe the same as Dinco D. However, look at his body of work, with FBAs such as LONS, they got their name from Chuck D, he has to thank QTip for his breakout with scenario viewed on the arcenio hall show. He raps sometimes from a 5% perspective... Talking about God's and Earths.. Now he claims hip hop was created 50% by Jamaica. That didn't happen. Yes, others minorities were there but hip hop is fundamentally FBAs. We helped him, showed him love, created something that feeds his family but he is on some bullshit

First off thanks for your post. Honestly, I don't know how to post videos or photos. But I will give an example, unfortunately it is hip hop related. Currently, Fat Joe got his start with FBAs in the group DITC, now he is claiming that Puerto Ricans created hip hop 50% With FBAs. Since we are celebrating 50 years of hip hop which in now a billion dollar commodity he seeks another payday. The point is, we help out immigrants, make them successful, invite them to the cookout and they get too comfortable and stab us in the back. Maybe this isn't the perfect example, but it shows the disrespect of FBAs

Can we ban him for the use of a slur?
You're missing my point; what historically united White people was their oppression of Black people. Because there were always warring White people in Europe, this is nothing new; but what brought them together was the oppression of non-White people.

Peep the context of what I said, don't focus on one word. I thought you intelligent of enough to understand my point. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt.

The point is if any word should be banned here, it should be the n-word.

False equivalency.

I'll try to keep it simple since you are clearly simple.

A slur is an insult a racial slur is an insult based on race. All words have meaning based on their usage. If you can read you know this.

An insult implies you are trying to hurt. When the word nigga is used colloquially it is not a racial slur it is not a word meant to hurt based on your race. When it is used as an insult (as we know it with the er) it is. When the word tether is used but not as an insult it isn't a racial slur either. But when it's used by the FBA as an insult to black immigrants or people who support the diaspora it is a racial slur.

If anything BGOL is being consistent in it's application.
The fact that you think this is cogent is astonishing

Why is your focus on the immigrant and not the white people with the actual power. What can an immigrant possibly do to help reparations in this country? They can't vote. They can support ideologically and I believe the vast majority do. But attacking immigrants doesn't help the cause in any way. Is their an immigrant coalition to stop reparations. No.

You guys make up this immigrant bad guy that hates African Americans and you put that on all immigrants. It's exactly what the white man does. All mexicans are rapist and murderers. All haitians eat cats. All african immigrants hate african americans. That's exactly why it seems this FBA shit is a plant to divide.
Hey dumbass maybe stop calling FBA shit for one

You niggas on BGOL want to drop these "punch-line" or "mic drop" responses because you think it makes you look cool or intelligent.

If you have something to say, say it and use as much details as possible because things get lost in translation on the internet.

It's my fault, I thought you were more intelligent than you actually are, next time I'll give you the fifth grader version.

Oh and the irony, you use the word "niggas," the word that you want banned.

Your Totally wrong, the word Nigga or ****** is the fucking same. Do you think our people who hung from trees appreciate that word? Do you think every FBA is on some rap tip and think the word nigga is cool and hip? We are not all the same!!! Would you call your grandma nigga, if somebody saved a loved member of your family, would you say "Thanks my nigga?" If you meet someone for the first time and he say "Hey nigga!!!" I bet your going to be on guard until you know what's up with that clown. Most people use that word to try to be cool, clown people or to intimidate people. It's derogatory at it's base. NIGGA!!!!

You won't be giving anything because you're about to take your place on the blocked list.

Instead of having a discussion and talking about your inconsistencies, you want to block me. Again, I assumed wrong about you, my bad.

It's 22 pages because most of you chronically online losers don't actually deal with regular black folks on a daily basis.
OR

When arguing with strangers online, a person can experience a dopamine reward, particularly when they feel like they are "winning" the argument, as dopamine is released in response to feeling successful, dominant, or validated, even if the interaction is superficial and with someone they don't know personally; this can create a cycle where people seek out online arguments to experience that dopamine rush.
