“This Holiday Season, the Poor Buckle Under Inflation as the Rich Spend”
Even if policymakers achieve a gentle economic slowdown, it won’t be smooth for everyone. nytimes.com/2022/11/25/bus…
👀🤫 @nytimes leaves this part out. The fact nearly all high wealth millionaires (+5 million $) in the United States that are not importing foreign gained wealth are white.

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??? 🤫

In 2009 @50cent was singing have a baby by me be a millionaire as a fantastical arrival to wealth for Black folks actually largely bottom casted. >>> In 2022 he’s berating his child over child support and the pain they suffered because he wasn’t a good father. 🤫🤷🏿‍♂️ #50cent ImageImage
“I need you to maybe give me a seed. I need you to give me reason to breathe… Have a Baby by me be a Millionaire.”

“Wealthy parents are famously pouring more and more into their children, ... The biggest investment the rich can make in their kids, … has less to do with "enrichment" than real estate.
They can buy their children pricey homes in nice neighborhoods ...” washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2…

The path #HurricaneIan is taking is CRAZY. From near Tampa yesterday it then slows down over land earlier. And then picks up speed back over water near Jacksonville today. — My prayers are with Florida and the Carolinas. 🙏🏿 Be safe.

This is ridiculous Madison owned over 100 slaves on a Virginia plantation. You would never see this nonsense from any group oppressed and enslaved by a person. On her Twitter @lizzo calls it a “Presidential” flute. No Lizzo it’s Madison’s. A man who held your ancestors as slaves.
Just so lost… this is a relic of slavery and should have died with Madison. She gonna play this flute and give this man and his flute praise. No it’s not a PRESIDENTIAL flute. It’s James Madison’s legacy born of your ancestors bones.
All of this is such nonsense and furthers the argument many of these people are unanchored from ancestors and lineage. #ados

The gravity of the atrocities skipped over by #womanking can't be put into words. The #BoycottWomanKing protest should be an awakening for #ados Black Americans as to the GAPS in their own identity. "The African Trade" by History is a good primer. WATCH:
The #WomanKing Dahomey traded about 3 mill of our ancestors but other countries & their progeny have been able to live on a flat blackness that Black Americans have blindly anchored. There still were 9 mill more sold up the African coast for hundreds of years. #BoycottWomanKing
Part of the reason this isn’t resonating as it should is first there is no video. And we now learn visually. And also we don’t grasp the scale. Next time you’re at a packed NFL stadium look around. Imagine all those people enslaved in one place. Multiply that by 200 times.
