I used to listen to Lenon Honor at one time, but after his channel turned into “The Weekly Bash Umar” channel, I have since stopped. (Do I believe Umar is a charlatan? Yes. But hearing about his exploits every week is in my opinion unproductive… I’ve got the concept, I don’t need to hear any more of it. I also find dragging him and making jokes about him equally unproductive. I’m about liberation and separation for our people – and as I’m constantly saying about anyone… be it Umar, Oprah, or any “celebrity” – “Okay, we have spent an hour, or however long TOTALLY dragging them. Are we no longer within this SoWS? Has it changed ANYTHING for our people and our condition within this construct?” 


Also when Christelyn Karazin was on his live stream commenting, and she was in 100% agreement with him as he spoke about Black men and gave him a generous super chat then invited him onto her platform… that was about all I needed to see. I’m like this… there are certain people, or groups who, if they are standing in agreement with me and saying how right I am, then I automatically know that I’m on the wrong side of whatever I’m talking about and need to DEEPLY rethink my position. That is one of my rules of thumb. ie. If say… Tucker Carlson talked about how GREAT my views are and how right I am… then I would AUTOMATICALLY know there’s something wrong with my perspective and I need to reexamine it!


Yes… users, charlatans, and the like need to be called out, but at some point… we must GET the point, because beyond that point it becomes oppression porn, or gossip and so on. Really… for example, who CARES what Candace Owens has to say about Juneteenth (a holiday I personally don’t celebrate for several reasons), but my point is that somewhere along the line we start activating the “Streisand Effect (The Streisand effect is a social phenomenon that occurs when an attempt to hide, remove, or censor information has the unintended consequence of further publicizing that information, often via the Internet.) And instead of sucking all the air out of the room so that the flame dies… gasoline is added to it and it becomes more well known because we won’t stop talking about it (or them). 


Finally… another red flag for me is when ANY Black person is constantly starting their sentences with “The problem with Black people is…” or “What’s wrong with Black people is…” or “Black people need to…” Because in my opinion those who speak that way have a few things going on at once. One is that EVERYBODY who speaks disparagingly about our people are talking about ALL of our people, but somehow… some individual Black people think they are talking about OTHER Black people… THOSE Black people. In their mind they are thinking, I’m not like THEM. I’m not one of THOSE Black people. All the while not realizing that they are inwardly dealing with issues of self hate either consciously or subconsciously, though they will deny it with their last breath.


The second is that when “The problem with Black people… “ statements are made they are almost always made without context. Not taking into account a system that was not only created to keep us down, but actually NEEDS our people at the bottom of it so that it can run. They do not factor in epigenetic memory, generational oppression, and the behavior of natural people when forced into an unnatural environment and conditions.


The third is that there is almost NEVER an examination of the absolute TERROR and destruction yt people have reigned down upon not only our people, but the very planet ITSELF! No examination of THAT what-so-ever… when our actions within this construct are like fire crackers… theirs are ATOMIC BOMBS…  LITERALLY. 


So… I don’t listen to him (Umar either anymore), and your commentary is spot on as usual. And I agree with Chris Miller when he says that, (and I’m paraphrasing here), the Umar bashers need to use that same energy to address our oppressor and the SoWS.


Love, Honor and Respect to you and your Might Black Family… ALWAYS!

EXCELLENT!!!

 

The concept of a “High Value” man or woman is a misnomer in the first place.

 

I did a quick experiment with Angela one day. I went to her and asked her how much Jeff Bezos is worth. She said, “Such and such billion” (which was accurate), but I made my REAL point to her after she said that... because we often talk about language. My point to her was that even in the terminology we use, when speaking of a person in terms of “VALUE” our minds are immediately trained to think in terms of MONEY and MATERIALISM. 

 

I submitted that Jeff Bezos is nearly WORTHLESS, because he is adding no value to society and on the contrary is causing great HARM. 

 

The VALUE of a person is actually measured by their CHARACTER, INTELLECT and what they do to move not only themselves forward (on a level of living the most constructive life possible), 

 

The entire concept of materialism is grounded in yt people’s INABILITY to compete with our people in nearly every arena (with the exception of death, misery and destruction). Even if one DOES manage to earn six figures or what have you, the fact still remains that the pursuit of wealth and materialism puts us DIRECTLY on THEIR square. As I have said before... when you lack character, creativity, imagination, and basic humanity SOMETHING has to be done to give that person a sense of worth. That something became MONEY and MATERIALISM. They (yt people), spent centuries crafting that particular house of cards which includes opulence, etiquette, and false “sincerity” (the Southern Belle and Southern ‘Gentleman’ who owned enslaved Africans and worked, beat and raped them without mercy, while simultaneously separating husbands and wives, parents and children and so on - but they were experts in etiquette as were their brutal, barbaric counterparts in Europe).

 

Money and materialism is the ONLY thing they could use to give them the illusion of being “civilized” while remaining blood thirsty barbarians. At the same time, they fooled the rest of the world into believing that money and material wealth is what determines a person’s “value”, so they made sure that our people especially were cut off from any ability to gain wealth on a major scale so that when people look at us they don’t see the talent, the compassion, the humanity, the genius, the resourcefulness, the love, the intellect, or the beauty... all the world sees is that overall, as a people, we’re broke... and therefore... based upon what they (and WE), have been brainwashed into believing... we have NO “value” and they are “high value” TOTALLY based upon money and materialism.

 

And even in the context of our people... just as you and Brother Z correctly said... if we are looking at each other through the oppressor’s lens and considering money and materialism to determine the value of a man or woman, then we (or at least those of us who are chasing that carrot), are caught up in a PURE FANTASY!

 

Love, Honor and Respect to both of you!
