Check out Mrs. Young's words:

"I voted for Mayor Lightfoot after she came to my church because I believed in her as a Black woman."

Lori Lightfoot is a horrible human being. Not only did she attempt to do the same thing as her white predecessor &

 withhold video of white police terrorizing a black person, but she lied about seeing the video and "falsely denied her administration withheld footage of the raid from Ms. Young." So miss me with this bullshit that somehow black life is safer under black politicians...
If statutorily possible, black Chicagoans should immediately launch a recall election to remove Lightfoot from office. She should never again be allowed to occupy public office. Put simply, black life isn't even safe under black leadership....
Just ask the family of Rashard Brooks why black Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms is blocking their settlement negotiations regarding the white cop who murdered Brooks in a Wendy's drive through parking lot. I need you to comprehend precisely what Lorraine Hansberry was saying..
when she said "all my skin folk aint my kinfolk." Black people have little 2 show for their black leadership. White supremacy is so sinister that it often puts black faces on white horror. Hence, U often get the same, if not worst outcomes even when black folks are figureheads...
Think Judge Tammy Kemp hugging Botham Jean's white killer cop in open court. Think Judge Latisha Dear Jackson refusing 2 throw the book at white Officer Robert Olsen in his ruthless gunning down of a naked black Air Force veteran Anthony Hill. Think Judge Kimberly Esmond-Adams...
throwing the book at recent black college graduate Aimee Michael for a car accident while sentencing a white man 4 time served for his brutal beat down of a black woman Amazon delivery worker. Think Kamala Harris refusing 2 investigate white officers surrounding the death of...
Mitrice Richardson. I could go on&on. Far 2 many times there are black hands that rush 2 protect white life at the expense of black life. This shit is maddening. I fully expect 2 B treated worse by black elected leaders breaking their neck 2 prove their loyalty 2 white people...
So where do we have to turn? Nowhere. Being black means having nowhere to turn, being surrounded on all sides by either white people who seek to devour you or by black people happily willing to do their bidding. As Dr. John Henrike Clarke once posited, "you have no friends."...
Being black means being friendless. Any black person can be turned against U on the drop of a dime. Every Negro becomes Tekashi 69 when white folks come calling. Comprehending just how bulletproof white supremacy is means trusting no one, especially those "who look like you."...
Thinking otherwise is suicidal. Just ask MLK, who fought for affirmative action only to be put under surveillance by the first black FBI agents who were hired under the government's 1st affirmative action program. Read that back. If you subscribe to the idea that the FBI was...
somehow responsible 4 MLKs death, then U must at least entertain the conjecture that MLKs actions 2 simply help Negroes carte blanche was in fact a suicidal act. Under this logic, it is not 2 far fetched 2 consider the possibility black FBI agents were used 2 hunt King. Fuck....
Shit, even King's photographer & fellow black preachers were FBI informants. King was surrounded by snitches. Real talk. Just google "Bureau Clergymen." This aint nothing new. Think Black Panther William O'Neal who was Chief of security for Fred Hampton & also a FBI informant...
O'Neal's surveillance would lead to Hampton's brutal murder in a police raid. How the hell did the FBI get so close to Hampton? Because white supremacy is so airtight that there will always be a willing Negro in your inner circle down to sell you out...
You can never offer more 2 one black person than white people can. Thus, white folk will always be able 2 pick off 1 of your closest....and all it takes is one to bring your movement down. Just ask Ralph Abernathy's ghost about that cool half a million he got to disclose MLK's...
sexual exploits. Wait, what? Real shit. Abernathy got a boat load of money to publish "And the Walls Came Tumbling Down," where he disclosed some real personal shit that no real friend would ever do. EVA. Nevertheless, it is always the closest who will sell you the shortest....
White folks are like the crack black folks cant do without. Niggas always be trying 2 get a hit. Perhaps Biggie Smalls put it best:

"Your moms'll set that ass up, properly gassed up
Hoodied and masked up, shit, for that fast buck
She be laying in the bushes to light that ass up"
Blacks who betray black people have a hard time around mirrors as reflections can be painful occurrences when you no longer recognize the person standing before the mirror. Once white supremacy uses you up and throws you away, you are left to ponder the wreckage you caused....
Perhaps this why former Black Panther head of security William O'Neal ran out into Eisenhower expressway & committed suicide at 2:30 in the morning years later after orchestrating Fred Hampton's murder. Shit, that nigga even gave the FBI floor plans of Hampton's apartment...
Cue Morgan Freeman's "snitches vs. rats" commentary on that 21Savage track. Contrary 2 popular opinion, rats of this ilk never get cheese. Nevertheless, Lori Lightfoot should read up on O'Neal & then go take a nice stroll during rush hour down the middle of Eisenhower Expressway.

A NIGGA CHRISTMAS

Twas the night before Christmas, when all thru the plantation,
not a nigga was voting, not even for reparations,
Strange fruit was hung on the oak trees with care,
In hopes that Catcha Freeman would soon be there,

Little Sally was nestled all snug in her bed,
While Thomas the pedophile got in his head,
I'm president, I'm white, I can have what I want,
I'll take it, she'll give it, my privilege, I'll flaunt,

While Massa was taking it, I went back to sleep,
And prayed to White Jesus my nigga soul to keep,
When out in the fields arose such an Uncle Ruckus,
I sprang from my haystack to see what the fuckus,

Away to the outhouse, I ran like Nat Turner,
I tore open the shutters and let out a murmur,
when, what to my wondering eyes would appear?,
was Steve Harvey telling slaves "we black out here,"

I looked up in sky, was it a bird or a plane?,
No, It was Oprah in a sled filled with her favorite thangs,
Dropping gifts 2 good white folks who gave her good luck
tossing bootstraps to niggas so we could pull our ass up,

POLITICS AS CELEBRITY

I knew this crap was coming sooner or later. People are suffering & these mafuckas out here doing sorority photo shoots. Miss me w/ this bullshit. More of the same. Stop treating politics like its a damn elite club & path 2

Stop playing games w/people's lives & maybe then you wouldn't have so many people suffering. I'm going to file this bullshit next to Michelle Obama's $8,000 Versace dress & $4,000 Balenciaga boots. This shit is

Remember when Barack Obama 1st ran for president & Mrs. Obama was heralded as "The J. Crew" 1st Lady who shopped at Target was just like every other American? That bullshit was a lie. Balenciaga & Versace Michelle is who she always was, but she masked it 2 aid her husband's rise.

Now Kamala Harris, like Michelle Obama, out here w/a Marie Antoinette "let them eat cake" tone deafness while Americans are suffering, the Capitol is burning , a pandemic is raging, people are dying & a civil war is brewing, but Kamala skee-weeing on Vogue covers in pink & green-

like she back on the yard at Howard about to do her probate show. Meanwhile, the Obamas globetrotting w/billionaires, gotta half Bil Netflix deal & hv mansions in Chicago, DC & Marthas Vineyard. Nevermind how they got this entire life of wealth & celebrity was through politics &

Lemme say something-from here on out, whenever U read an article from a major newspaper or watch anything from any public figure in any position, try 2 look up their bio & background. If U cant find anything on them, U should automatically become deeply suspicious

I actually once outed a well known professor for being a fraud. All this started with his British professor colleague joking in class how he loved America b/c most Americans thought he was so brilliant just b/c he had a British accent. He told the class how back home-

he was nothing, but he was given some advice by another British friend that in America he could thrive because they would find him exotic & different. So he left Britain & came to America climbing all the way to the top of the Ivy League. While overseas, I actually ran n2 a Brit-

that knew him & said, "Oh yes, we regarded him as pretty mediocre for our tastes. Many failed British scholars go to America where they can be stars. We send all our mediocrity there." He said that shit very nonchalantly, but with dead seriousness. He said this wasn't just true--

-in academia but in many other fields as well. He called this "the lure of immigrant exotics." He said that human beings have a natural tendency to be attracted to the exotic. He felt many of Britain's failed scholars had cracked the code of parlaying their accent &

WHEN MORALITY BETRAYS

I am no Democrat. I am no Republican. In general, I am not of the perspective that there is any salvation for black people in politics. To the black democrat I say, imagine if Obama fought as hard for you as Trump fights for white supremacists.

2/25

Hear me. Politics is not a morality contest & Democrats often reduce politics to a never ending competition in a self righteous morality Olympics. Their allegiance to morality outweighs their allegiance to the public good. Morality & the public good are NOT the same thing.

3/25

Morality is different things to different people. The public good is all things to the most people. This is not a play on words, but a mindset required to competently engage in the public square. Those who fail to heed such caution render themselves vulnerable to those-

4/25

powerbrokers who morality factors little into their decision making. Herein, lies Barack Obama's fatal flaw. His allegiance to the moral principle of bipartisanship caused him to let Republicans run roughshod over him. He was elected w/a mandate from the American people &

5/25

squandered it. I offer the following as evidence: Allow me to introduce you to Mr. Sureshbhai Patel, an elderly Indian man who was walking through his son's subdivision when a white neighbor called the police 2 report a "suspicious black man" casing the community.

MY RACIST

If U remember from an earlier post I brought up Sen Elizabeth Warrens remark that "Obama did more for Wall Street than Main Street." I concur. U can ignore poor black people all day, but under no circumstance can U ever ignore poor white

Now Biden must be careful not to repeat the same mistakes of Obama. Biden most go big & go big fast. Fuck inflation. Order the treasury to start printing money. You will not beat Trump by impeaching or prosecuting him. You must beat him on the battlefield of ideas & you do so by-

helping the people he ignored. People with good jobs, food on the table & a roof over their head dont have time to do insurrections. If U help these people, you will choke off the fuel to Trumpism. Some black people will criticize me for taking this approach. My simple retort is-

you can't out-violence white people. We don't make guns. We don't make bombs. We don't make shit. You have to make it such that everyone eats. Otherwise you have to deal with the warning Heather McGhee lays out in her new book: white

Obama did not get this. He made it such that only rich white oligarchs got to feast. Everyone else got crumbs. I need you to get precisely what peace requires. There are a good number of white people in this country which would rather burn this country down than to allow any-

Handy guide for Dominic Raab and other Brexiteers, and for anyone keen to replace our EU trade with trade with the rest of the world on WTO terms...


You can't magic away the vast distances involved. Clue: we fly in only 1/192th of our trade compared to the amount that arrives via sea


But even if you invented a teleporter tomorrow, WTO terms are so bad, so stacked against us, that a no-deal Brexit will be a total economic disaster


And while the Brexiteers fantasise, real jobs are being lost, investments are drying up, companies are moving assets to the EU27 or redomiciling. All already happened and happening right now, not in some mythical


Of course, there are many, many myths that Brexiteers perpetuate that are total fiction. You've seen a couple of them already. The thread below busts a whole lot

This idea - that elections should translate into policy - is not wrong at all. But political science can help explain why it's not working this way. There are three main explanations: 1. mandates are constructed, not automatic, 2. party asymmetry, 3. partisan conpetition 1/


First, party/policy mandates from elections are far from self-executing in our system. Work on mandates from Dahl to Ellis and Kirk on the history of the mandate to mine on its role in post-Nixon politics, to Peterson Grossback and Stimson all emphasize that this link is... 2/

Created deliberately and isn't always persuasive. Others have to convinced that the election meant a particular thing for it to work in a legislative context. I theorized in the immediate period of after the 2020 election that this was part of why Repubs signed on to ...3/

Trump's demonstrably false fraud nonsense - it derailed an emerging mandate news cycle. Winners of elections get what they get - institutional control - but can't expect much beyond that unless the perception of an election mandate takes hold. And it didn't. 4/

Let's turn to the legislation element of this. There's just an asymmetry in terms of passing a relief bill. Republicans are presumably less motivated to get some kind of deal passed. Democrats are more likely to want to do *something.* 5/

Here we go. Tag 4 des Impeachments. Trumps Verteidigung.


Es wird argumentiert, dass Trump nur habe sicherstellen wollen, dass die Wahl fair abgelaufen sei. Die Verteidigung zeigt Clips einzelner Demokraten, die der Zertifizierung von Trumps Stimmen 2016 widersprechen. (Dass es 2016 keinen von Obama gesandten Mob aufs Kapitol gab?Egal!)

Die intellektuelle Unehrlichkeit ist so unfassbar, ich weiß kaum, wo ich hier überhaupt anfangen soll; so viele fucking Strohmänner auf einmal.

Die Verteidigung spielt random Clips, in denen Demokraten “fight” sagen, fast zehn Minuten lang. Weil Trump 20mal am 6. Januar “fight” gesagt hat. Dies ist kein Witz. Komisch, dass sonst die Folge nie war, dass ein Mob das Kapitol gestürmt hat und Pence hängen wollte


“Dieser Fall geht um politischen Hass” Ich mein, ja. “Die House Managers hassen Donald Trump.”

So close.

1/ The first 18 months of starting a company is often life or death. I must've made 5 different companies that each failed within 9 mo. 😭 Each time the company failed I figured out what I could do better. Eventually startup #6 got to $40K/mo by month 18. Here’s what I learned...

2/ Stay focused! Ignore things that are a waste of time: meetups & conferences, meetings with no clear agenda, fundraising if you're not fundraising, reading lots of tech media articles, etc. Every week should feel like significant progress in the first year.

3/ Your first 5 hires will be the difference between life or death. Choose carefully. Be picky. Many of the things we do at the company still are a result of those early hires' legacy. Have fun as a tight knit team. It will change & evolve as you get bigger so enjoy this moment.

4/ Growth may be flat for the first 9 months. It's gonna be okay. Almost every company has experienced this: Airbnb had to sell cereal in-between, Slack failed as a gaming company first, Tesla sold only 147 cars after 6 years! You probably won't be an overnight success either.

5/ In the beginning, do customer support yourself. You will learn a lot about why your product sucks. I did 5,000+ support tickets when it was the two of us. Delight customers & fix things fast while you learn. It will help you build an amazing intuition about your customers.

Santkumaras-The four adorable kids of the Universe.

The Kumaras r the four sages who roam the Universe as children from the Puranic texts of Hinduism named,Sanaka, Sanatana,Sanandana& Sanatkumara.They r described as the first mind-born creations &sons of the creator God Brahma.


Brahma,who had received the knowledge of Puranas from the Universal being(God Himself), imbibed this to his 4 Kumaras.
Sanat Kumaras then taught the Puranas to Narada.Narada transmitted it to Krishna Dwaipayana who in turn scripted them in monumental epic documents of 18 Puranas.

The Vishnu Purana is recorded in two parts,the Vishnu Purana & Naradiya Purana.The teachings of Sanaka of the Kumara brothers r contained in the Naradiya Purana which is also divided in two parts, the first part containing the teachings of Sanaka &second part,teachings of others.


Born from Brahma's mind,4 Kumars took lifelong vows of celibacy against their father's wishes.They r said to wander throughout materialistic &spiritualistic universe without any desire but with the aim to teach.All 4 brothers studied Vedas from their Childhood&travelled together.


The Bhagwata Purana lists the Kumaras among the 12 Mahajanas(great devotees or bhaktas) who although being eternally liberated souls from birth, still became attracted to the devotional service of Vishnu from their already enlightened state.

1/ So here is a thread on how I turned $32,000 into $1.2m and back to pretty much zero (once taxes are paid).

Just note, I am not bitter or salty in any way at all, the last 2 years have been an amazing ride - travelled the world, been wealthy, been poor.

2/ Dec '16, my advertising agency folded, I had a little bit of money left and I put $32k into Bitcoin and Ether. As it started to go up I diversified into everything, Monero, Dash, this that, any crap - even Ripplecoin. Everything just kept going up.

3/ By March I think I had around $300k and $500k by the summer. I used to take 25% out but towards the end of the summer I got greedy and put it all back in and by December it was $1.2m.

4/ Thinking I was an absolute genius I decided to start a bunch of businesses. As silly as it sounds I had this goal of making $5m as I wanted to buy Bedford Town Football Club and get them in the league, and as Crypto was going up forever I needed 6 months.

5/ So:
- Trading (income 1)
- Podcast (income 2)
- Mining (income 3)
- Mining pool (income 4)
- Consulting (income 5)

Yes - all of the above as a one-man army :)
