As I told you back in March this California #ab3121 reparations recommendation would not make sense when released. Now it’s up to $1.2 million for someone 71 years old. Thus randomly breaking this down by age. This elementary calculation isn’t proper form for lineal reparations.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… ImageImageImage
This was how #ab3121 came to be a bill.

None of what is recommended addresses a wealth chasm between #ados Blacks and whites. You don’t need small scale pilot programs. You need a massive reparative justice program that 1) is for American Descendants of Slavery 2) recognizes the trillions that need to be repaid.
These ideas are detached from the economic collapse in #ados Black America. Only 21% of Black Americans even have above a 700 FICO. What do you think that it is for working age #ados taking out boomers and Black immigrants 5-10% break 700? Really POC commercial property programs. Image
They are just writing anything how is this different than saying create a time machine and stop slavery or let’s just start with $20 million to the family from Bruce Beach on property worth $240 million. Look at this ex. for commercial property that says $10 million in revenue. ImageImage

This is why #ados is vital. This woman discusses East African racism practiced in America while dating. She says “We’re treating people as less than people.” Many Black Americans don't grasp this conceptually bc we don't think in this context. #ADOS is not divisive its necessary.
Our lives as #ados are filled up with so much acceptance that we don’t understand that without exclusion there are no boundaries. We are not flat Black. We are American Descendants of Slavery. Joinados.com ImageImageImageImage
We don’t grasp Blackness as we use it through the lens of it being an American racial construct. Resulting from our specific #ados oppression. —“It explains why most Africans experience being called “black” or “African” for the first time when they come to America.” @CityLab Image

Like I have said life is now more about wealth transfers than labor. Making the cost of being #ados heavy beyond measure. “Gen Z and young millennials have found a new way to afford luxury handbags and watches—living with mom and dad, says Morgan Stanley”

As I wrote a decade ago. “The new era that has arrived brings us back to a time where what you will become is based not on how much Chase will loan you without collateral, but rather what your grandfather left for you years ago.“ Rise of Legacy 2013 huffpost.com/entry/the-era-…
I think many will miss what is being said because the title framed it incorrectly. Literally this title is saying that Gen Z & younger millennials are paying for the basic cost of life with parental transfers of wealth & using labor for consumption goods. That’s America in 2022.

1) Interesting thread it shows a severe lack of understanding of the moment. While the tweet framed it around “work” it’s much deeper. Our generation will not have the wealth to promise more than we had and almost no one tweeting replies seemed to get this basic economic truth. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
2) Many were subtweeting w/ no grasp on the shift in wealth we are living through. And also understanding the way cars have shifted both in cost and who manufacturers target. Economy cars are dying. People are in the thread totally void of understanding economics in America.
3) The avg payment on a used car 2022 2nd qtr was $515 & that’s before the loan rates hit 6% w/ good credit. You have people driving @uber or doing contract work saying they are buying their kid a used car. Next they say my 15 yr old kid won’t have college loans w/ nothing saved.

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??? 🤫
