>>the bad dude played by Michael Jordan plainly said he was going to kill everyone NOT black in all the countries and start things over, with ‘their race’ running things.

Well aren’t “white devils” (white people) the result of a black African “scientist” who’s thousands of years’ eugenics experiment to distill the essence of all evil in the world into white people?

White people are “bad” because black people designed us this way (or so say Louis Farrakhan, black separatist, black nationalist, and leader of a far left hate group).

If they do, they can start up a “FUBU” (For Us By Us) studio (FUBU is a separatist fashion line).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FUBU

History
The company was founded in 1992 by Daymond John, J. Alexander Martin, Keith Perrin and Carlton Brown with a line of hats made in John’s house in Hollis, Queens, New York. According to the company website, John mortgaged his own home for $100,000, and with that seed money he and his three friends and co-founders, turned half of his house into a factory and the other half into living space.[1]

In 1995, South Korean company Samsung invested in FUBU.[2]

At its peak in 1998, FUBU grossed over $350 million in annual worldwide sales.[3] FUBU has received several honors for their entrepreneurial achievements. These include two Congressional Awards, two NAACP Awards, the Pratt Institute Award, the Christopher Wallace Award, the Online Hip-Hop Award and a Citation of Honor from the Queens Borough President.[citation needed]

In 2003, FUBU mostly left the U.S. market and concentrated its efforts overseas, also taking over other apparel brands. In 2009, annual revenue of the company was around $200 million.[3]

In 2010, FUBU relaunched in the U.S., rebranding itself as FB Legacy.[3]

In 2018, FUBU began an ongoing collaboration with footwear brand PUMA to create a number of shoes and apparel.[4]


For “Us” by offshore labor...

but then in 2015 he said that isn’t what it means

online the comments say it means “hip hop culture” not “black community”. So N’sync was hip hop?

This Disney bears no resemblance whatsoever to what Walt built. If they can make it without my money, I’m happy for them.
