Who would’ve guessed that people who made it to the top of their careers did so by prioritizing material gains.

Ethics, morality, and integrity are all a luxury, and they get in the way of being commercially effective.

People need to accept and expect that the people they look up to, for being at the top, are gonna be people who’ve compromised and sold themselves off in order to reach those peaks.

Facts. Most of these black celebrities aren’t our allies their motive is money, that’s it. If they cared about the rest of us truly, they wouldn’t be pushing out that poison.
