What you’re seeing is people expose DEEP limitations. From Nore for reasons @BreakingBrown posted on “Special Ed”, to the people commenting. This is a failure bc Nore has now made himself the story. This is never suppose to happen. The journalist is now the STORY for apologizing? ImageImage
Many people are showing the effects of watching gossip reality TV & daytime judge shows for years. Nore broke a cardinal rule & made himself the story. To the point we’re not discussing the context of Kanye. This is a low brow model of busy work content digestion. Zero focus.
It is this busy work style of digesting that @kanyewest and the rest of the #decadentveil play on to keep attention. It’s the lowest form of getting eye balls. And far too many of you are getting DEGREES and digesting content this way. It’s a sad sort of internal social collapse. Image

In this era young white men are often afforded a space to fail up by older white men that control most of the wealth in America. They see former versions of themselves. And hand out advantage to keep that image for society. The con of our moment is to mask it w/ Black celebrity.
In addition nepotism has run wild within wealth calcification. And it drives OUR eras winners & losers. There is no group that unknowingly lives further under that boot than #ados Black men. Lives set up for failure from the day they left the womb. Yet expected to provide as men.
The craziness is 99% of you don’t even know this is going on… And it is that pressure & con that scratches at the back of your brain. The feeling of helplessness while being given the faux belief you have all the tools. — Say again how #ADOS didn’t trigger reparations??? 🤫

Did people think we were talking about reparations in the abstract? People sat on the sidelines rambling about xenophobia or it being unreasonable. 🤫🤷🏿‍♂️ Well the next step is it comes to you personally in form of being carved out without the #ados demand. thedailybeast.com/laid-off-hbo-m…
You can’t leave the heavy work of political undergirding in a lost moment to @breakingbrown & @tonetalks while you make HBO shows or help with the NBA to give people escape. Not without consequence. When your group is deemed invisible & is largely without wealth there is a cost.
Listen to what w'ere saying in 2019. We're saying they are courting the white middle class. These people across corporate America either said nothing, or in some cases worked against the specific #ADOS demand. Now they are making the argument in isolation.

This whole article is awful. @blavity should be shunned by Black America for posting this nonsense. And no the whole internet isn’t on scattered @Drake side in this attack on Black family. This is the #decadentveil

Y’all got so desperate you made celebrity out of people projecting pure scatterdness from their identity to their content.#decadentveil huffpost.com/entry/the-deca…
Black America built itself out of pieces of people that are pieces of people. Y’all sing along pretending to be a person that’s pretending to be you in song. What dialect does he use is that some scattered southern/midwestern slang y'all let this man of limited education rap?

How have #ados Blacks allowed mythology about effort & opportunity to be sold during an era where in the U.S. they largely live locked out? In 2016 America was the most unequal place in history & white American families had ard $80 trillion. In 2022 white wealth is $125 trillion.
Economist Thomas Piketty, the author of Capital in the Twenty-First Century, in 2016 observed that the level of inequality in the United States — for those who work for a living — “was probably higher than in any other society, at any time in the past, anywhere in the world.”
America is a place where white capital creates Black aberrations primarily through the #decadentveil #nbaplayoffs to project equity in the middle of inequality like never seen. And people then ask #ados to provide reparative & transformative politics while joining in the party.

So @nbcnews and this writer @mfoxcnbc wrote an article about #ados Black America missing out on the $68 trillion transfer of generational wealth because of lack of wills? Again White America now has $127 trillion in wealth. This is #decadentveil nonsense. a.msn.com/0E/en-us/AATUo…
How are these media sites writing on wealth with no idea what the facts are on race & wealth in America? With even less grasp of the history. Black America has little to no wealth. This probate argument is blaming Blacks. And avoiding white theft & oppression. It’s pure ignorance
@nbcnews should remove this article. It switches from overall wealth in the title to an analysis using bad avg family wealth data. No use overall wealth. Almost 1/2 of the tiny amount of Black wealth is pension. Nearly none is liquid. And whites now have $127 trillion in assets.

They just congratulated Jalen Rose on ABC during NBA coverage for having a charter school in Detroit. Do we understand the history of how Devos used Charters to gut Michigan Schools. People aligning with Devos need to be held to the truth. The report says 13% reading proficiency. Image
“Michigan Gambled on Charter Schools. Its Children Lost.”
nytimes.com/2017/09/05/mag…
Rose taking a bow looks fine. If you didn’t know the impact of creating charter schools on education generally. Or his actual school’s performance as (above), or donors like Tom Gores who is invested in prisons (below). #decadentveil - ebony.com/news/education…

#ADOS random thought:

The fact Talib Kweli Greene & Jessica Aiwuyor were able to spread such misinformation about ADOS, *and so much of the blue check population quickly embraced & believed it,* says WAY more about them and the #DecadentVeil than it does about us. (1/)
I mean...

What in the Terry Crews does it take for middle-class to wealthy striver Blacks & ADOS on media platforms to embrace a belief that a group of poor & working-poor Black Americans are xenophobic white-supremacists? #ADOS #MakeItMakeSense (2/)
What does it mean, for the totality of the #ADOS who has not practically, but LITERALLY NO WEALTH that we are a group of undesirables that reaps EVERYTHING THAT WE DESERVE FROM WHITE SUPREMACY? (3/)

GENERATION FAIL: How The Civil Rights Generation Failed Us

"We need a resurgent BLACK MEDIA now more than ever. Ever since the 1960s, we've had the white media indoctrinating us w/ the story that the civil rights movement was a good thing for Black people." @ProfBlacktruth #B1
@ProfBlacktruth "We've had Black Baby Boomers bragging for over 3 generations that they were all apart of it; constantly telling us we owed them b/c things were so much better now than they had ever been before; that we had all sorts of opportunities & freedoms b/c of them." @ProfBlacktruth #B1
@ProfBlacktruth "Meanwhile, when we looked all around us, we saw that our condition had gotten gradually worse & worse & worse. Clearly, somebody lied. We took a dangerous & now it seems, fatal wrong turn somewhere back in the past." @ProfBlacktruth #B1
