I'm sure Mets put in the proper effort to understand the nuance of the Ice Cube situation. Surely he talked to Black folx and understands what their view is on it, why they are concerned, and what Ice Cube's message here is.

Sort of offensive you'd imply otherwise, guys.

Was I mistaken in thinking Mets was all pissed at Cube not too long ago for his anti-semetic comments?

Mets biggest concern with Black people is how he can use them to prove his agenda. He's done it over and over and over and over again. He is a fan of exploiting things they say and making it fit to either make them look like hypocrites or to undermine their issues.

He's the perfect epitome of "but I have a Black friend".

This is just another example. He doesn't even understand the issues at play here. When provided readings in the past he ignored them. He doesn't put any effort into understanding the issues, so will continue using them for his own benefit.

Just like this.

I'm glad he got rebooked and can speak

Yes his anti semetism was disgusting. But he wasn't canceled for it. He did agree to speak to zionist leaders but did little else

He appeared to be canceled over meeting with the Trump campaign

Chim figured me out and he's the expert on me and hope he feels better

I am glad to be wrong And that cnn is letting him sleep

Regardless if I'm going to like what he's going to say

I only know about the Ice Cube stuff from this thread, but no one is given a voice who isn't an an Uncle Tom, more or less.
Ice Cube is a part of the system. He was on Law & Order ffs* and has a mile long imdb page. He plays ball.
NWO/ gangsta rap was promoted deliberately and cocaine coming from Nicaragua was shipped directly into the homes of black people by the CIA. Ice Cube helped make it happen. So he's not really a good person at all.
* correction-- that was Ice-T on Law and Order....doesn't matter though.

Don't know what question is being discussed. But do want to defend the concept of gotcha questions. If a question leads to an answer that can be shown to contradict something that was said, it forces that person to adjust his stance if he wants to remain consistent. That is often a more effective way to achieve that end than merely stating why you disagree.

if someone in the "conservatives, what are your values?" thread says they think people should be entitled to the fruit of their labor, they're probably talking about wanting low taxes but if they really believed that, they couldn't support capitalism

should I go get them?

i do enjoy the idea of a jewish conservative stumping for giving a platform to an antisemite conspiracy theorist because he happens to be fitting their current narrative. that narrative being "LOOK, our savior president trump has a black friend, so he cant be racist so i'm not a terrible person for supporting him"..

Probably lots of people who spend time calling others racists are in fact racists themselves due to Freudian principles.
They hate the things in others that they hate most in themselves, etc.
It's similar to the people who want to get on me about bad reads in ww when their own reads are atrocious. It's not me dude it's your dad.

its hilarious that you guys put these ridiculous equations to my words

i think he has the right to speak because this is America regardless of whether i agree with his hate speech or not

i tihnk its hilarious that when he did make those pro farakan antisemetic tweets, the msm didnt seem offendedl. but when he sits down with the trump campaign, after the biden campaign refused to meet with him, all of the sudden he is ready to be cancelled (again, i am aware he did go on CNN so it wasnt what it seemed, but my posts were based on the evidence to that point)

i have never said trump having black friends or black employees dont make him racist. i have argued that the majoriy of his policies artent racist

its like most Jews say things like "trump only helps israel because of the religious right, not because he likes jews or even israel.

my response is "ok so what if thats true? is that supposed to upset me that hes doint what i want for the wrong reasons?"

peopel are too focused on the minutae

Of course he has a right to say whatever he wants.

This doesn't mean that CNN needs to have him on the air.

Sweden instituting new, more aggressive, interventions for COVID.

Just a reminder we have never achieved herd immunity against a viral pathogen without a vaccine.

The herd immunity strategy being flouted by the White House is horrible, will lead to unnecessary death, and significant economic harm. There's no reason to think it is even possible.

Tell that to the European settlers who watched Native Americans die off from Eurasian diseases. I don't think they had discovered vaccination at that point in time.

I'm not fact checking this claim but if true it's disheartening.

The top tax rate in California should be much higher, like 95% for incomes over $1,000,000.

I'm surprised there's nothing in here about Bolivia/Maduro; I haven't really followed it they closely, but it seems like a successful US backed coup was just reversed last night.

Feel free to enlighten me if there's more to it than that.
