The Aella Girl account is the greatest hustle I’ve ever seen on here. Thirst traps in between posting questions to make code monkeys feel like intellectuals like “what if pooping your pants was cool...what if Society just doesn’t want us to do it? Is that not irrational?”

I'm going to say something that might upset some people, but I believe it deeply and the evidence backs it up. The single most powerful thing Black people anywhere in the world can do to fight racism is to become collectively wealthy.  Not just individually successful, but wealthy as a community. I watched this happen with other groups. When Japan was poor, Japanese people in America were put in internment camps. When Japan got rich, suddenly everyone wanted a Toyota and Japanese culture became aspirational.  Korean Americans were targets of violence in the early 1990s. Today, after South Korea's economic rise, Korean culture is one of the most admired in the world. The pattern is so consistent it's almost boring: poverty invites contempt, prosperity commands respect. So when I hear debates about fighting racism in America, I always think the same thing. Yes, call out injustice when you see it, absolutely. But also build businesses, create wealth, and invest in your children's education like your life depends on it. Make your community so economically powerful that discrimination becomes expensive for anyone who practices it. That is how you win the game everyone else already figured out.

Woke 1 was crazyyyy

Juneteenth should not be a federal holiday.

Natural selection be like that sometimes

על כל דמעה של אמא ישראלית, אלף אמהות לבנוניות צריכות לבכות. לבנון כולה צריכה לבעור! עם כל הכבוד לאמריקאים, ישראל חייבת להבהיר לעולם כולו שדם בנינו וביטחון אזרחנו איננו הפקר. לבנון כולה צריכה לבעור. חובתנו העליונה היא להגן על אזרחי ישראל ועל חיילי צה״ל, והמחויבות הזו קודמת לכל שיקול אחר. אמרתי לראש הממשלה, גם בישיבות בינינו: על כל דמעה של אמא ישראלית, אלף אימהות לבנוניות צריכות לבכות. מספיק עם הפינג־פונג. במזרח התיכון לא מנצחים בתגובות מדודות ובהכלה - צריך להשתגע. למחוק. להכריע את הטרור.
