If we quit any business because the business owner/ownership group are racist we could not do business in America. No credit cards, homes, military, gov, tv or movies, no books, food, medical care, school. We exist in conjunction w/ racist systems run & owned by racist people.
Elon musk is no different than your bank owner, or grocery stores, or sheriff, police chief, DA, doctor, principle, intake nurse. Where you gonna go to avoid racists in America? What service or system will provide the nirvana? Facebook IG are no different. America allows racists
to thrive and own everything because racism is thee driving engine of American capitalism. Like, don’t you know that? Seems like CRT needs to be re-taught to damn grownups. We are surrounded or better, encompassed by racists and racism. We get called the n-word everyday on this
app. Every day. I’ve been called the n-word more on this app in past year than I have in real life for my entire life. Thanks Jack Dorsey! I guess Elon can add more n-words? Oooh. I’m scared. As I think New Yorkers & Black folk say: gtfohwtbs. Elon is a racist jerk of a douche
and so what? Ever watch nbc msnbc or fox? Ever read NYTimes wapo Politico or or or? Ever try to publish a book? None of your school teachers or your kids teachers were racist I guess? How’s your Nextdoor comments? I would love to be free. To be free of racists & racism. I’ve
Got news for you -that literally is the point of what we’ve been fighting and dying for since we were dropped onto these shores that became cursed w/the stretch of the power of racism. American racism cannot be defeated, just contained for a season. We breed racist as effectively
as we bred Black babies for free labor, sex, trafficking. It is who and what this nation is so it’s surprising so many are ready to flee an app over..a racist owner. Hey, your favorite sports team owner is racist. Your fav athletes, tv & movie stars, and you’re doing fine sweetie
Listen, there’s an upside to Elon buying Twitter. Being majority owner and part of Wall Street again comes with rules & responsibilities. Shareholders, institutional investors, public filings, audits & transparency. These things matter and serve as constraining factors on bad
management. Look at that awful car company he runs & the damning lawsuit due to horrific racism at his California plant. Not Texas or Alabama- the Bay Area where “the good whites” live 🥴. Despicable typical racism. Now the lawsuits are exposing it and in response Elon buys
A social platform. Racist hate the light of Justice and accountability and the dummy musk is running right into more in the hopes he can influence the US electorate- ie dumb voters- to elect more corrupt politicians that’ll grant him LESS oversight - less light so that his
Companies can operate with as much racism as he learned in South Africa and perfected in the Mecca for racism, the good old USA and folk want ti make it “easier” on him by fleeing this bird app. “But it’ll get worse” some say. Hey, welcome to worse.. I could say every day I leave
My house or log into any social media service. Welcome to worse could be my daily affirmation. But worse flees when confronted with our better natures, our truths, our persistence, and yes, our resistance. Blue Waves Matter, do they not? Blue waves didn’t give a fuk CBS’s Les
Moonves salivated over making big money off trump, & blue waves knew that only voting matters all rise is noise. Evening intra party fighting- of which I participate- puts a damper on blue wave efficacy. The days & weeks move toward midterms and all the players are making moves.
Elon Musk buying Twitter is ONE move. I won’t let his move discourage or distract me from the priorities our party and administration are working on and I won’t let his move dampen my enthusiasm for improving my neighborhood, distract, city, state or country. He & others can
buy up all the things - his kind always have in America- but they’ll never buy my vote or steal my joy or energy for anything damn thing. End.

I love the fact that Black folk can debate, joke, and offer differing opinions on Chris Will Jada with each opinion including cultural insights that are valid. Reaffirms that we are not group-think & there are cultural nuances that support all sides. The differences too run the
gamut of defense of BW, knowing what to /not to joke about, handling one’s business, mouths writing checks your ass can’t cash, respectability, & what is comedy. It is also obvious most white folk have a limited understanding of Black culture & thus see the event through their
Cultural lens- you saw it most in the “Call the police, drag him out & arrest him” crowd’s reflex to *their cultural norm of depending on the most violent anti-Black gang to show up and do what they do so Martha can again be comfortable that “order” is restored & small Indy
