Dave Chappelle fires back after backlash over his Saudi Arabia show. Says no one ever had a problem with Saudi money until “a black man” made “money off the plantation.” “The United States government does business with the Saudis. Netflix does business with Saudis, everyone. Saudis financed tons of movies. I see them financing boxing matches and all these things.” “And none of these things were an issue until I went there.” “Now, why is that? As soon as a black man can make money off the plantation, they try to tell you that the money is dirty.” FULL EXCHANGE BELOW: REPORTER: “US intelligence did make it clear that they believe that the Saudis killed Jamal Khāshqujī in the embassy in Turkey. And you knew that when you went, right?” CHAPPELLE: “Oh, absolutely.” REPORTER: “You had no qualms?” CHAPPELLE: “I won’t say that. They asked me to go years before that, and I said no for that very reason.” “Since that time, the United States government does business with the Saudis. Netflix does business with Saudis, everyone. Saudis financed tons of movies. I see them financing boxing matches and all these things.” “And none of these things were an issue until I went there.” “Now, why is that? As soon as a black man can make money off the plantation, they try to tell you that the money is dirty. Well, okay, I’ll go home and spend the money with actual slave owners on it. Where is this clean money you’re talking about?” REPORTER: “But you said you hesitated for years to go. There are years you didn’t go. So what made the difference for you?” CHAPPELLE: “Time. Time and circumstance. Time. And the wheels of commerce kept turning.” “If you want to be that pure about money, then stop driving your car, stop eating, don’t use your cell phone. Everything is tethered to something that’s just terrible.” “And I can make a million excuses or reasons to deprive that crowd of that show, but, man, when I was standing in front of them, I feel like I did the right thing.”

Start stealing

go read those reviews, go read them yourselves, none of them are talking about the movie, they’re talking about the lack of mention regarding the allegations, all this when they’ve been made AWARE that a pt.2 is coming and that no allegation existed in 1988 lmaooo

This American points out how insane tomato prices have gotten. Two months ago this same box was $19.99. Last month it was $29. Now it’s $75.98.

do you understand what happened to JetBlue.. they accidentally told the entire internet their biggest secret A man's ticket jumped $230 overnight while trying to fly to a funeral. JetBlue replied: "Try clearing your cache and cookies or booking with an incognito window. We're sorry for your loss" "Try incognito mode" is not customer service.. It's a confession. If incognito = cheaper price, you are being tracked.. Airlines denied this for years - until this tweet. "We're sorry for your loss" - sent to a man going to a funeral.. Nobody read his tweet before responding. Then they deleted it.. The delete only confirmed they knew exactly what they admitted. Your browser history is not just data. It's leverage. Your browser history is not just data. It's leverage..

Southern states don’t have enough infrastructure for the population increase that keeps happening.

MARRYING A WOMAN THAT WANTS TO MEET A RAPPER IS A RED FLAG 🚩

Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone is a 12:05 minute long song. It’s not until 3:53 that you hear someone sing a word. Labels are not letting bands cook like this on the intro anymore and we are losing!!!

Fellas never settle 😭🤞🏾

Mayor Mamdani is going directly to residents private homes to ensure the landlords properties are safe and up to code for the tenants. Mamdani is running laps around every politician in the country at any and all levels of government. THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD BE!

Do you still eat at Chipotle?

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

“Do not fuck up the money” that is universal understanding

They'll do this and still call the police on Black people for breathing

BLM was created by this man Darren Seals and activists like him in Ferguson, Missouri. The BLM movement that garnered worldwide attention was falsely CLAIMED to be created by Black Women. Funny thing is, Those same Bw you mentioned took proceeds and bought mansions For themselves
