Mo’Nique wants you to boycott Netflix

[hand2handking]

Yes, minority athletes have sometimes been seen as less credible when they participate in "white" sports...though it's a sentiment that I don't share

But how is that different from the premise that you're promoting?

Using your own logic, there is a certain level of credibility that the Jamaican bobsled team could never reach because bobsledding came from a different culture

did you see the end of the movie?

they got their respect that was enough

credible would have been crossing the finish line in the sled

credible would have been sticking with it and qualifying again

its no shame in it im just saying

Wait, you talking about Cool Runnings?

You know in real life many other teams were actually very supportive from the jump.

I saw when I was little but I don't remember much...pretty sure it's on Netflix now

I think Jamaica actually did manage to compete in bobsled competitions a few more times

it was a distribution deal.....

i guess mac miller didn't go independent platinum because itunes/youtube/etc. took part of his earnings for distributing his music?

glad to put you on playa

You know in real life many other teams were actually very supportive from the jump.

and if there were teams in the movie that werent supportive then you know in real life there were more

so he wasn't independent then right.........

also i know nothing of mac miller
never listened to him sooooooooooo

 

[nawghtyhare]

Budden had this same argument about being independent with chance

 

[RustyShackleford]

Sure maybe so, maybe not. From real life stories I hard there were haters, but a lot of the other teams were friendly and helped them out.

Let us not use a Disney movie that as much fiction (maybe more) than fact as a source.

Cool Runnings is not a documentary.

 

[hand2handking]

what yall are missing is the very creation of hip hop was a political statement against the status quo

intrinsic to black experience

taking what was theirs by the dj scratching the record

it was literal revolution

and the roots of the mc trace back to africa and the griots or storytellers

everything old becomes new again

They went the next three or four Olympics in some form after their debut.

 

[gwap]

wait...

so if the first romans were black...

then italians and other europeans comes from blacks...

then they come to america and set up the U.S....

then these white people with black heritage can't be a part of black culture

the logic is crazy...something is off

I like to imagine Mo'Nique stumbling across NT and seeing a 24 page thread about her and then opening it to see us talking about Eminem and Cool Runnings

i wasnt intending it to be

and in my defense i didnt bring up cool runnings i brought up the team

only to illustate how its a one way street

everyone wants to be included but still be exclusive

i brought up jack johnson too but no one wanted to talk about him

If Monique is lurking I just ant her to know that when I look at her I don't she a blackballed actress.

I pride, I see power, I see a bad *** mother that don't take no crap off of nobody.

Me too
Don’t let them devils
Tell u what ur worth

 

[Nawzlew]

what about producers

 

[nawghtyhare]

wait...

so if the first romans were black...

then italians and other europeans comes from blacks...

then they come to america and set up the U.S....

Well there’s this theory
That whites were part of tribes in Africa
But were violent and ostracized
For their violent natures
They of course came from black mothers and fathers
I’ll try to find the source
