Bruh, you said something that makes it seem like you don't know how shit works in general. Crowdfunding is a type of investing model and Tariq didn't invent it. He receives donations through his YouTube channel because YouTube monetized their livestreams. YOU could make the same money for talking online. Yall swear up and down this is some intricate swindling going on, when for the millionth time dude doesn't press for donations. Yall are more pressed about him recieving donations as an easy excuse to discredit the message.

Yeah, I'm not a Tariq fan, but I'm not understanding this criticism at all. Crowdfunding is not a con game.

He aint just doing no damn crowdfunding.
I respect the man and what he does but some of the shit is just crazy. Dude has books out and documentaries and not putting up his own money while he makes money of it.
I just feel he is using us as a bank that he dont have to pay back.

Exactly.
From politically to socially, anytime something goes down dude usually is the loudest and most opinionated. Quick to be up front, all in the mix. Urging everyone to tune in to ""my radio for ""the truth"",be sure to share my YouTube vid to spread to the word, I need y'all to donate money to be GoFundMe, donate money to my crowded funding,donate money to my patreon, be sure to drop those Superchat$... """
And telling (black) people not to vote, telling (black) people who and who not to support, telling his followers who is coon, who is bed wench etc.etc.
And he knows his followers listen and abide by his words.Will defend and justify his actions no matter how suspect.Will puppet his every rhetoric no matter how misinformed and asinine ( We clearly see it here...)
It's not just disingenuous, but outright cowardly for him or anyone else to continue to claim he's "no leader"

You niggas is EXCOMMUNICADO!!!
Yes it is when a person don't like a nigga they say shit like that instead of just flat out saying I don't like that nigga.
I can understand a person that don't like a person for no reason other than they just don't vibe with said person instead of just saying retarded shit against said person.

Former President Obama’s 2012 campaign pioneered strategies for effective crowdfunding at the national level. The campaign raised $631 million in individual donations, $214 million of which came from small donors. Senator Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign carried the torch in 2016, raising $218 million online and his famously reported average individual contribution of $27.
Sylvester Stallone, most widely known for Rocky, turned to Kickstarter to raise money for his indie film, Reach Me.
When one of the financial backers backed off the project, they needed to raise the $250,000 said backer had pledged to the project. Stallone, along with the project’s director and producers, set up a Kickstarter campaign for the $250,000.
Though they surpassed the $250,000 needed, they cancelled the campaign and moved it to Indiegogo. Apparently they were more receptive to Indiegogo's flexible guidelines, which allows international pledges and pledges over $10,000.
Oh, and Stallone is worth a reported $400 million... So, yeah.

Whoopi Goldberg took to Kickstarter to raise funds for her documentary film about Moms Mabley, a legendary female comedian. She asked for $65,000, which isn’t an excessive amount when it comes to the Kickstarter game.
Her campaign was successful and raised over $73,000 for the documentary. When asked why she didn’t just fund the film herself, she said that she was funding the film but needed a bit more. The documentary went on to be nominated for two Emmy Awards, so I guess all is well that ends well.

Your argument is why don’t he just fund his movies out of his own pocket and I’m showing you people with more money than Tariq using crowdfunding to help them make their projects.

Fuck them fam.
All that shit is foul. They all had the means and asked ppl for money so they can make money on some shit that in the grand scheme of things dont help us.
I wish nothing but blessing on dude. I just wanna see him do tangible shit because thats what he preach
He has done tangible things. He’s helped out a woman who was running a black orphanage, paid for funerals for slain black people, went to Ferguson and helped get the ball rolling to getting those corrupt police chief out of office, helped shed light on stories which have in turn helped to bring justice to black people.
