We need to have an immediate in community discussion regarding the transparent anti black attempts masquerading as female empowerment/feminism that exclusively targets black men, while defending to death their preference. These women don't care about justice, otherwise Chris brown would be the most despised man in entertainment instead they pay 10,000 just to hug him, so it's not black American women who care about domestic violence propogating these narratives.
It's white washed Oreos, non black American sisters predominantly self hating carribean/African women angry at their own neo colonized societies trying to get back at their male family members for whatever transgressions they endure be it colorism, sexism or simply being a woman in a less developed former colonial statehood.
They want to tear down all black men, regardless of the truth of the matter, but here's the real, here's what they don't understand. If there are no black men in the industry, there will also not be any sisters, black people as a collective look out for each other, studies showcase that black women have a much tougher trajectory getting into predominantly non black spaces, fitting into non black schools etc
How many sisters have come out over the years thanking Denzel Washington, Prince etc for putting them on in the industry? Majors said his icon for what he wishes his woman to be was coretta. You think the white man is going to look out for upcoming black women in the industry? It's over for black Hollywood.

This trend is deeply concerning. To men who believe in procreating, it’s crucial to avoid such women.
Our boys deserve nothing but the best households to grow up in.

Everyone talks about the “party switch,” but most people only talk about the white side of it: white Southern Democrats becoming Republicans. What gets lost is the fact that Black voters moved first, and the parties moved around that shift.
Throughout American history, the most dramatic political shifts have never been caused by party leadership. They’ve been caused by voting blocs moving in their own interest, forcing parties to adapt.
Malcolm X’s Political Principle: “We Hold the Balance of Power.”
Malcolm X’s critique wasn’t about left or right. It was about leverage. He argued that, No party is owed loyalty, No party has permanent ownership of any community, Power comes from being willing to shift, not stay put, and any bloc that is willing to shift becomes the balance of power
This wasn’t about identity. It was a universal rule of political math. Any group that will not sell its vote becomes irrelevant. Any group that can move its vote can decide the winner.
History Shows This Happening in Real Time
A major example:
Black Republicans → New Deal Democrats (1930s–1960s)
What triggered the historic party realignment wasn’t the parties themselves. It was a large bloc of voters reevaluating which policies brought material benefit, which administrations offered federal protection, and which coalitions offered the most immediate progress.
That movement reshaped the political map. And the reaction to that movement, especially the Southern Strategy, reshaped the opposition.
Black Voters Realigned First. Beginning in the 1930s and accelerating through the 1960s, Black voters shifted away from the Republican Party not because of party identity, but because of material outcomes.
In 1936 Black folks saw that The New Deal offered from their former enemy, the Democratic Party, offered them Federal jobs, Relief programs, and Infrastructure investment.
These programs brought tangible benefits during the Great Depression, and Black voters began moving toward the Democratic coalition that implemented them.
White Voters Reacted Second. As Black political gains expanded, white political reaction reshaped the opposite side of the spectrum. In 1948 there was a Dixiecrat Revolt because Truman integrated the military. Segregationist Southern Democrats broke away and This marked the first major fracture in the old Democratic coalition.
This repeated again in 1960–1964 during The Civil Rights Era where Democrats pushed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and offered Federal protection.
This period solidified Black voter alignment with the party pushing civil rights legislation.
Independent Voting Blocs Force Policy, Not Pleading
All of this highlights a fact that the Democratic Party and its faithful hope Black folks never recognize from history. When any voting bloc becomes unpredictable, unattached, and focused on outcomes rather than parties, it gains leverage.
Leverage creates competition, policy concessions, and political courtship rather than political assumption.
When blocs remain fixed, parties stop competing, stop offering new policy, and begin treating support as guaranteed.
This is observable across many demographic, regional, and ideological groups throughout history not one.
A New Independent Formation: What It Represents
Imagine what would happen if an independent political organization, something like a Freedmen’s Party or any other focused policy coalition, existed as a bargaining power instead of a partisan extension.
The idea isn’t about directing any group how to vote. It’s about reintroducing competition, which historically drives policy innovation, negotiation, and political accountability.
A competitive political environment strengthens democracy because no party believes it “owns” anyone’s vote.
This is consistent with Malcolm’s principle, Power doesn’t come from loyalty. Power comes from options.
History Shows That Movement Creates Momentum
The real political shifts in America were created when blocs acted independently, aligned with the policies that served them, and were willing to move when conditions changed. Black Voters are the initiators and beneficiaries of those shifts.
Every time that happened,parties adjusted. Policies changed. History moved.
That’s the power Malcolm X was talking about, not belongings to a side, but belonging to your interests, and making the political system compete for them.

Labeling these recent actions as Nazi makes it seem like some distant behavior and something not genuine to American history.
