(38,064 posts)That elderly obese thing had ZERO swagger. Just an overgrown spoiled little brat who had everything handed to him on a platter.
I think black America - we desperately NEED swagger. I need it. I need to know that there are people out there that will get up in the grill of the white American racist and make them lose their shit - just for being fabulous.
This man came from NOTHING. I've read posts at du applauding elon musk - who is a menace to society, who had everything handed to him on a silver platter.
I give people that look like me, and who are successful, more room than white America to be themselves. I contrast all of the opportunities my parents gave me - with everything he had to fight tooth and nail for.
If I had been beaten while in jail in NY state as a teenager - my dad would have placed a personal call to Cuomo the first. And Cuomo would have taken it.
Swagger is the black police officer that stopped his beating. He was impressed with his 'swagger'. That 'swagger' that go two white cops to stop beating him.
Swagger is good in black folks. I've seen this gentleman compared to Ben Carson on this thread.
I'm like - are these people fucking kidding me?
Ben Carson is a dweebie mon zweebie - who played the part of the 'one black man' that Malcolm X warned us about.
The fact that he disgusts people - makes me like him more. If you are pissing off the dominant culture just being yourself and BASKING in well deserved success - you are my kind of people.
