@takfam07 I am glad you like what I have written. The book I am working on will go far deeper into the concepts but will also discuss my free thinking existential philosophies.

[takfam07]

@mrblackalchemist Don't stop your line of thought. Everything you say is spot-on. It holds the key to black cultural success. Like I said, you could cultivate serious philanthropic support if you organized a campaign around your principles. But major support orgs might be hesitant to publicly support this (thought they'd believe in it 100%), because of the stigma of going against accepted public rhetoric. It'd have to be carefully framed. Meanwhile, you'd receive huge "anonymous" gifts.

@takfam07 I have thought along those lines and many thing I am foolish. In fact some say I am teetering on madness with my beliefs.

@takfam07 So when Booker T discusses "what could be" or "what should be" or has a clear plan on how blacks can turn it around most blacks simply cannot understand that level of reasoning. He and I are quickly labeled as boot licking uncle Toms or that we act white. Since the majority don't think critically they are indignant to the damn truth & reject it. However by doing this blacks fail to realize that accepting the bitter truths today saves suffering tomorrow. It is a vicious cycle we are in

[mrblackalchemist]

@takfam07 The "reasoning" for many of my people is not there. All that is there is jive talk, making something out to something that is not, procrastinating, excuses and exaggerating racism in order to get things from white people for doing nothing. Africa is still extremely resource rich but have Africans "reasoned" to work together and progress? NOPE. That capacity to industrialize, progress, build first class societies etc is in a minority of blacks so the things don't happen.

[mrblackalchemist]

@takfam07 With blacks Africa has EVERYTHING. No planning or conserving or working together is needed to survive. Over tens of thousands of years this means Africans still have a lot of people hanging around who if they had a similar vetting process would not have made it. So while the North Asian, European and African groups may have all started out with an equal amount of good/bad, smart/stupid, moral/immoral, critical thinking/ totally thoughtless people we Africans have stayed the same.

@takfam07 I believe it is a variety of taboo subjects. One dealing with maturation rates, evolution and what motivates people. I strongly believe that different races have been vetted over the thousands of years far more than blacks. For example North Asians and Europeans due to harsh climate and lack of immediate resources had to learn to plan, think and to work together or DIE. This stressor meant that those who could not do these things were likely to not pass along their genes or lineage.

@mrblackalchemist Do you ever try to address your observations to other blacks? What is their response? All the things you are saying ring true. But I'm wondering if there can be black leader(s) who can change the thinking of blacks as a group. All it would take is an attitude and perspective shift in the black consciousness, and rapid positive change would result. Ever thought of mobilizing other like-thinking blacks to create a movement? You'd receive MILLIONS in philanthropic funding!

[takfam07]

@mrblackalchemist Again, I'm blown away but hopeful to hear a black person with your perspective. Why do you feel that illogic prevails in the black culture? All my life I've noticed this about blacks. When I was younger, I rationalized that it must be a mystical, deeper spiritual knowledge that transcends mere reason. As I get older, I'm more inclined to see it at face value. But why does it prevail? Why do so many blacks eschew critical thinking? Is rationality seen as "white"?

[mrblackalchemist]

@takfam07 Another issue is personal integrity. If you listen to blacks cry racism you will find that racism is usually simply injected into conversations to "hide" things black don't understand or won't do or learn. Blacks are heavily invested in this dishonest game. I feel most black people simply want to live in a world in which they don't have to be responsible or take initiative etc. This is a GREAT cause of conflict for blacks VS most non blacks and with blacks who think like I do.
