. . . isn't it strange that we don't know who we are? I mean, we know so little about ourselves it's shocking. We tell ourselves a story and we go along believing in it, and then, it turns out, it's the wrong story, which means we've lived the wrong life.
Siri Hustvedt, from The Blazing World

What is so funny about this fandom- so much talk about "activism", ( so you can feel like saints at the end of the day😉) intolerance, equality and stuff, but in the same breath being prejudicial and intolerant toward someone because of his (white) skin color.
You can't be taken seriously when you preach about something and do the opposite- and then even call yourself a "decent human" for doing so....
It's also ironic that in the year 2022 the false narrative "white men bad" is still being pushed- because it shows how much you actually care about cultures. You are lazy. The only thing you focus on is what "white" people are doing, would you educate yourself, you would know that "white" people did just as much bad things as other people through the human history, even less tbh. There are worse cases but you chose not to know about it. That's why we're stuck and don't come anywhere as a society.
It's almost 2023 and you're still gonna decide the worth of a human based on some pigments, congratulations!

The oh-so-predictable selfies of him in blue scrubs, while I was being sliced open to deliver our baby, brought him effusive praise from online observers. Yet the fact he was at a Christmas party when I came home from the hospital with our newborn slipped by unnoticed.
I believe that my ex-husband had a deep desire to be seen as a selfless hero: He thrived on recognition and congratulatory responses to his posts. But as any reader of childhood fairy tales knows: Where there's a hero, there's always a villain. The "heroic" cops have their "villainous" robbers, while the wife guy has, well, his wife.
My ex basked in the halo effect of "being a devoted husband," a label that all too frequently renders almost any negative characteristic void. Thanks to his public displays of emotion and "vulnerability," people overlooked his flirting, excessive partying, and questionable ways.
They didn't know that he rarely changed a diaper, but he was always sure to share a selfie on the rare occasion he did.
In contrast, critics seemed all too keen to highlight my "faults" in the face of his apparent devotion. ...
We live in a society that tells women to be grateful for the smallest amount of male attention and assistance — from offering empty compliments to taking out the trash. The bar for men is set so low that even finding your wife attractive is deemed worthy of congratulations.

Caveat Lector 🚨🚨🚨
Tumblr media
Donald Trump supporters have been creating and sharing AI-generated fake images of black voters to encourage African Americans to vote Republican.
BBC Panorama discovered dozens of deepfakes portraying black people as supporting the former president.
Mr. Trump has openly courted black voters, who were key to Joe Biden's election win in 2020.
But there's no evidence directly linking these images to Mr. Trump's campaign.
The co-founder of Black Voters Matter, a group which encourages black people to vote, said the manipulated images were pushing a “strategic narrative” designed to show Mr. Trump as popular in the black community.
A creator of one of the images told the BBC: “I'm not claiming it's accurate.”
The fake images of black Trump supporters, generated by artificial intelligence (AI), are one of the emerging disinformation trends ahead of the US presidential election in November.
Tumblr media
Unlike in 2016, when there was evidence of foreign influence campaigns, the AI-generated images found by the BBC appear to have been made and shared by US voters themselves.
One of them was Mark Kaye and his team at a conservative radio show in Florida.
They created an image of Mr. Trump smiling with his arms around a group of black women at a party and shared it on Facebook, where Mr. Kaye has more than one million followers.
Tumblr media
At first it looks real, but on closer inspection everyone's skin is a little too shiny and there are missing fingers on people's hands - some tell-tale signs of AI-created images.
“I'm not a photojournalist,” Mr. Kaye tells me from his radio studio. “I'm not out there taking pictures of what's really happening. I'm a storyteller.”
Tumblr media
Disinformation tactics in the US presidential elections have evolved since 2016, when Donald Trump won. Back then, there were documented attempts by hostile foreign powers, such as Russia, to use networks of inauthentic accounts to try to sow division and plant particular ideas.
In 2020, the focus was on home-grown disinformation - particularly false narratives that the presidential election was stolen, which were shared widely by US-based social media users and endorsed by Mr. Trump and other Republican politicians.
In 2024, experts warn of a dangerous combination of the two.

Pray For Your Nation
Thank you Lord for Your Mercy which is new every morning. We are hoping for God’s intervention and protection and praying for His Mercy for our nations. God bless you and yours.
Thankful For God’s Mercy I feel sad today Jesus. You gave us a beautiful world and life, and we let our human condition run amuck. We sinful, greedy, power hungry human beings have aligned ourselves with the wiles of the devil, and in our personal lusts for all things us, we foolish humans have been deceived to be used by satan to steal, destroy, and kill each other in order to gain only…

A world in peril
The deafening clamor of fabricated outrage and insane allegations amid the threat of fear mongering terrorists in a society riddled with doubt and beleaguered with persistent and ongoing false narratives that is deeply divided along ideological differences relating to the use of violence, retribution, the death sentence, public executions, kangeroo courts and the right to bear arms seems to…

"Akon: Africans No Longer Think about Slavery, Black Americans Still Blame the Past (Part 2)"
youtube
okay Jesus let me go ahead and get this off my chest because I've been holding this for a long time
AKON, who is a descendant of the Lemba people out of Senegal neglects to inform us that he is a "Hewbrew" because he doesn't understand it. his people were exiled to one area and that is all he knows.
his legacy was held in bondage, and still is held in bondage by Arabs and their false beliefs.
when people speak this way you need to listen to what they are saying and then think about it before you respond.
Let history respond..
AKON knows nothing about the struggle of Black people in America. as a rule most Black people in East Africa and West Africa reserve their comments because they understand that Black people in America have been through a whole lot because of them. our entire DNA sequence and history have changed simply because of a genetic bottleneck called slavery.
I would say Akon needs to have the experience that some Black people in America have endured through generations, in order to understand why slavery stays on our mind for so long.
We did not grow up in families that were rich in mansa musa's gold. We also struggle through our entire lifetimes financially and socially because of not just disenfranchisement but specifically systemic racism. regardless of how long we have struggled, it never ends.
systemic racism is what plagues us and the majority of it is because of the ignorance of people like Akon who continue to reinforce this false narrative
if he was not rich he would not have to "pretend to be a convict", he would understand how Black people feel every single day having to live in a system that makes us convicts rather than rich like him
I don't want to hear another word from Akon for as long as he is on this planet frankly
until he has shared my experience and the experience of my ancestors he cannot speak for me nor know my pain

You can totally hack into other people’s heads
You can totally hack into other people’s heads
You can totally hack into other people’s heads. It sounds dastardly, right? But you can tweak other people’s memories. On Mind Hacks, Heather Fishel cites the work of Dr. Jon Lieff and writes: “Once an event occurs and time moves on, it becomes a part of your memory. Each time you recall that event and its details—smells, sounds, details, and so on—you’re not, in fact, remembering the original…
