Trump unveils 'Platinum Plan' for Black Americans...Tags Ice Cube into the ring

[Inori]

Ice Cube is damn sure presenting this as not just his plan but a plan for all Black people. So it should be expected that people will be critical of who he teaches out to

.. that's what I said tho... that is HIS plan on what HE(and likely his team that put it together) thinks would be best for black people.

Again... he doesn't speak for all of us...

There's nothing stopping any of us from putting together our own plans and presenting them to politicians.. That's our right to do so... Just because he's in a better position to get that access and actually have those conversations and meetings than we do doesnt mean he thinks he speaks for all black folks.. just like it wouldnt mean that YOU OR I would think we speak for all black folks if we had an oportunity to present what WE thought would benefit the black community.

Personally I find it a bit insulting that both parties engage with celebrities for political shit when it comes to the issues our communities face but that's another convo lol.

I'm not even a Cube fan but the knots people are twisting themselves into over this is nuts

Trump's team was interested, so Cube tried to build with them. That's what happened.

Oh I get it. Ice Cube tried to build a Black Agenda with a President who is a White Supremacist. Two weeks ago Trump told the Proud Boys to Stand back and Stand By. Sounds like the perfect guy to resolve Black issues.

That's not what happened. Ice Cube and his management team has been meeting with Jared Kushner and Trump's Administration for a while. They even made a visit to one of Trump's Golf Clubs. he didn't put it out to the world. Ice Cube's business partner is also the business part of racist ass Steve Bannon. That's how he ended up linking with Trump

You've been on some bullshit the past year, before...during...and after the primaries. I see through it all, but it's comical how you're spamming this topis attacking anyone not kissing Biden's ass. You're really trying to say Cube is teaming up with Trump and Bannon, man get this nonsense outta here.

What I NEVER see from you and others is any criticism of Biden. Same way there was no criticism towards whoever was the front-runner during the primaries...why is that? We were all calling out Kamala when she was in single digit numbers, but as soon as she got VP, we were told to ignore her record, and just cosing. Neither of this parties are for us, never have bene, never will. We're 13% of the population, so we have to use our leverage or we get nothing in this world. Biden has a lot to answer for, and done none of that yet. And if we even ask for specifics, we get push back form his people, and our own yelling that we just need to sit down and hope that this racist clown will come through

Which is Cube's point. The same point Dr. King had. The same shit Jews do, and no one says shit about it. Hell, if this was some LGBT guy meeting with Trump, no one would say anything. But we can't for some reason. FOH

Ain't no knots being twisted. This is a simple as a dumb nigga doing business with a white supremacist and disguising it as progress for black people. It's really that simple yet niggas are trying to think tank it. Call it what it clearly is.

lol Who said he was the perfect guy to do anything? I personally don't know why people care this much about Ice Cube. I certainly haven't heard anyone promoting Cube as the guy we should all be following. Dude put his plan out there, got a call from Trump's team, knocked around ideas with them, and is now being used by the Trump team to court the black vote. It's not a good look for Cube, but it also ain't what ya'll are trying to make it.

Both Trump & Biden are racist. Listen to yourself. You contradict yourself every other post. Cube laid out a plan, there was nothing stopping Biden's team from not trying to work with it. But I guess they feel they have enough of a lead, so why even bother.

You never answered Monks question by the way

Are you fairly representing the situation? Ice Cube said he put that CWBA out there for all to see and that both camps got back to him about it but only the Trump camp wanted to build further. So what should Cube have done in that situation in your opinion?

So Cube is just a "dumb nigga" for presenting a plan to help his people? You're always out of pocket when it comes to insulting people who don't go along with the "plan". Can't be a simple disagreement, you always gotta put that extra on it.

 

[Fightbackmode2005]

yea im not feeling this.

this was a waste of time.

and he was clearly used and should not put it on they both bad.......
if trump didnt have a plan...so be it
if biden had a plan....work with it.

and as a black man why allow it to be called platinum?

nah

Because Trump knows black people like shiny things.

 

[ThaManMythLegnd]

it seems the only answer would be to nod and just smile. We can't say anything

Or be like Roland

Nigga I have been extremely critical of Biden. He was not my first, second, third, or fourth choice to win the nomination. As soon as the first debate ended and it became clear to me how this was going to shake out I posted that Joe Biden was gonna wash the field and win the nomination. That wasn't an endorsement. that was me stating a fact. It happened and niggas got mad because their guy or girl didn't win and looked at it as me worshipping Biden. It was anything but that.

Fast forward to Kamala and she was also not my first, second, or third, choice for VP. But once again I saw very quickly how this was going to shake out. I posted again that she was going to be the pick for VP. And again niggas took that as a ringing endorsement and that's not what it was.

I'm the one who started the OG 2020 Presidential Election Thread. Corey Booker was my preferred candidate.

After it was clear how the Primaries and nominations were gong to shake out I immediately started doing exactly what we all said we would do in The Primaries Thread. Hold whoever wins the nomination accountable. And that's exactly what I did. I have posted as much information about Biden and Kamal. facts about their records, interviews, articles, anything to explain any issues people have with them.

The only problem is niggas who are still in their feelings about who is on the ticket are now taking anything said in favor of Biden or Kamal personal because they are salty as fuck that this is not the ticket they wanted. That's what's happening.

So saying that I'm carrying Biden's or Harris' or The Democrats water is false. I've been very open from the get go on who I was supporting and where I stand.

Ya'll Ice Coon and Trump simps comment on this:

Ol' House Negroes

 

[bootcheese3000]

A professional bullshitter, would co-sign another bullshitter
Nigga just swindle damn $200,000 out of his supporters with a half-ass janky conference
And they thanked him for it.

HA!

Reminds me of that one episode of "The Walking Dead" when Negan said to Rick:

"Do you know what just happened? I just slid my dick in your mouth, and you THANKED me for it......."

He could've refused to work with a white supremacist. Instead he decided to make trips to DC and have lunch with Trump's team and he even tried to keep it all on the low and behind the scenes. The Trump Administration are the ones who leaked this. Not Cube.

So to answer to your question about what should Ice Cube have done is..........

He should've taken his own advice. Working with Trump in this capacity is as good as an endorsement

You haven't been critical of Biden at all, you've been policing topics here the past year and there's nothing passive about the way you defend either. People bring up real issues and concerns about where their vote is going and you just knock that down and say they should just vote with the herd and things will work out.

Biden was done, we saved his ass in SC. Considering his 40 year record filled with fighting desegregation and pushing the 86& 94 crime bills that decimated out communities, I would say he has a lot to answer for, right? So far he hasn't had to, that's a problem. His vision going forward is unclear too, and we still don't have answers for that. Basically...we haven't got shit so far from his camp. Dude had no problem tell that mother that he was cool with 8 years changing genders, but supporting a black agenda is too controversial??? If not now, then when?

All Cube was doing is putting out real solutions. Stop asking why Cube's doing it, the answer is pretty clear that no one else with access is...that's why. And stop trying to slander dude, that's bullshit.

 

[bootcheese3000]

Well, we got a Prime Minister who masquerared himself as Black Aladdin, a city full of lowlife MOFOs and wealthy immigrants called Vancouver it where barely snows, then a province full of French-speaking rednecks and arrogant English speakers called Quebec which is pratically our Canadian Florida... except that here, we get sometimes 10-30 feet tall of snow packing on every single five years. Used to be the norm, prior the climate change.

Don't forget the overt racism in Quebec along with Nova Scotia smelling like dead Sea Animals.

 

[Fightbackmode2005]

Ice Coon chilling with Trump. The same Trump who called a black woman a 'dog'.

 

[Fightbackmode2005]

Ya'll apologists really showing your true colors now. The same Trump who has the Proud Boys on standby.

Nuance is lost on many of yall. Enjoy your weekends everyone

Saying Biden doesn't have a vision is factually incorrect. Even he people who don't like Biden are acknowledging what his vision is. His website literally has his entire agenda on it but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that you haven't read that shit have you? Like, you insinuating in your post that Biden doesn't have a Black Agenda when he does have one.

Ice Cube is not offering any solutions. $500B to black America? How? There's no substance in that. Make Juneteenth a holiday? Uh Democrats already had a bill to do that in June of this year and Ron Johnson and the Republicans killed it. So Trump is going to make it happen when his own party killed it already? make that make sense.

There was no police reform in that plan Ice Cube laid out. None. Biden addresses police reform. Is it the perfect solution that everybody wants? probably not but Trump doesn't even address it.

You sound just like Ice Cube falling for a Trump okey doke.
