Since Obama be gone, black people don’t have much rip left for themselves, let alone enough to give. Myself, I got a bunch of rip that I can let loose for them. Leftover chili for lunch.
I really care what Pee Diddy thinks.
A lot of Blacks should be listening.
Government is not going to fix the dysfunctional aspects of black culture. Blacks have been looking to Democrats and Government as the solution since the 1960s.
After 50 years has looking to the Dems and Goverment fixed anything for them?
Time they look to themselves for solutions.
He’s talking to his Homeys. Nothing here really.
It’s a race thang.
I will bet that more supported Trump than they ever would a Jeb or Milt. As far as Hillary goes, not gonna happen.
LOL! Self proclaimed genius! Stupid gay fish.
Thank you, Regulator, for actually translating Mr. Combs’ comments. In addition to not being “down with the struggle,” I think he is saying that all the political/media masturbation in D. C. is irrelevant. I could have a beer with him over that.
Reading the whole article, the impression I got is that he’s had it up to here with the games the RATS are playing, more so than being against Trump, He doesn’t give a flip about the crap that RATS are bringing up about Trump.
Here’s a quote at the end of the article.
“We’re turning CNN and all that shit off because we’re trying to get ourselves together,” he said. “That’s what I’m about. I’m like, ‘Turn that shit off, let them deal with all that shit. We gotta start dealing with us.’
I agree.
To his credit he also founded a charter school in Harlem.
Incomprehensible gibberish.
IOW, Diddy is not 'down' with the daily anti-Trump tirade. Rather, he is slowly realizing that such leftist tactics do nothing for him (or black people in general).
Its actually a pretty powerful shrug of the shoulders...similar to what the black voting block did on Nov 8.
...and what makes you think any of us give a crap about you...
For one, your a little NOBODY, if you think your important, think again...
Just darn, Humble. Yuck!
I gather he never learned to speak in whole sentences.
I agree. See my post #27.
Sadly most freepers are too lazy to read the whole article and have knee jerk reaction on just the headlines.
To me what he’s saying is “F*ck all the noise of the politicians and the media, stop getting manipulated, and take care of your business”.
I agree with him. Especially about turning off the “shit”. We all should do it - it would end the power of the propagandists.
The kid is listening to "Uptown Funk" and grooving to it.
Isn't he?
I disagree, there are Blacks that believe in self reliance and not hand outs. Just wish that percentage was a little higher, maybe someday. But as long as people of color have $8 for his latest download of garbage and the occasional $150 for a concert, that is all he cares.
that’s ok , many of us white folks never gave a rip about Obama either
Much like old punk rockers, old school hip hop artists tend to have a fairly well-tuned BS detector and no longer have anything to prove, so you get surprising candor out of them that often doesn’t toe the canned leftism expected of them. Not all of them, mind you. But, this is a prime example.
Yep.
Though the comments about a battle make it seem like he might show up for a race riot it one happens near him.
The odd thing is that riots (and looting) usually take place in the community of the rioters, right?
It’s been, IIRC, nearly a century since rioting whites burned down any black communities and roughly 50 years of SOME black people occasionally burning down their own neighborhoods (as with the habitual criminals that terrorize too many now, it’s “some”). Thing is, after the former folks dusted themselves off and rebuilt, they didn’t give in, while after the latter they’ve fallen prey to the dregs of society in their midst, even let the criminal class define aspects of the popular subculture, and helplessness and hopelessness stalks far too many who shouldn’t have to live with it (and soon wouldn’t if they really, really turned against the gangs etc ... as I sometimes opine: if every gangbanger “mysteriously” died one day — obviously there’d be no witnesses how — life for the rest of the black community would dramatically improve).
Trying to remember when I cared about that guy’s opinions..... oh, wait, NEVER!
Rioting from the late 1800’s through to the 20’s didn’t involve destroying the neighborhoods of the rioters, not here. Pretty ugly stuff. But, the rioting of the late sixties did and practically all of it since then has, though.
