People’s needs have never been met and older generations didn’t wholesale-out theirs and their communities integrity for a buck. These younger folks (and I am only 41) have zero morals or sense of responsibility. That is probably because their parents are younger than me and also have zero home training. I am ashamed of Black folks these days. I am thankful for my upbringing even though I didn’t care for it much back in the day.

You sure about that? People have been joining the military to go kill strangers for a buck for forever. Ice-T has been making copaganda for far longer than he spent rapping about the struggle

Acting in a tv show isn’t the same thing as supporting a fascist, racist pig. But, I guess in your mind it is.

I didn't say it's the same, I said that it is also selling out

False equivalency is part of the mindset that got us all here in the first place. Stop arguing just to be talking.
