No where in that story did I see she held Diddy at gun point and forced him to allow her a part of his event.

And that is the reason she is referring to the whole thing as a win for her. She got exactly what she wanted, which was not illuminating some truth, or even making a real point, but to merely garner attention for herself.

Brandon Powell has never seen a lotion bottle he couldn’t walk right past.

Exactly. There are conservative black folks, churchgoing ones, for example... who have different perspectives on how people should act, who do not also have in their background that they support white supremacists or make excuses for Hitler.

She won. Her ideas and thoughts were dumb, but she increased her profile and that allows her Conservative grift to go on. This is the same person who won a discrimination lawsuit against her high school. She knows about discrimination and our history in this country.

You reach a certain point as a right wing charlatan where you develop dead-eyes that are reminiscent of staring off into the void of oblivion.

She was invited for racial click-bating that they wanted and that’s exactly what they got.

Laws can’t police intentions or feelings, only actions.

Unrelated but depressing: That Spin cover from 2002 that mentions “R Kelly Teen Sex Scandal”. It only took another 17 years to catch him! *weeps*

He’s a black man willing to meet with 45. Of course he’s a grifter.

Aside from Warren G on “Regulate”, every nigga is the hero in their story.  Of course he put extras on it.

There’s a reason why to this day I don’t refer to it as “9/11.”

I...wish I had something intelligent and clever to say here but... those dimples

That’s exactly what Bin Laden’s goal was. He wanted us to be destabilized and weakened, and rationalized that he could turn us against each other this way. And he was right. Shit just kept rolling down hill.

I worked at an air force base when 9/11 happened, and I was just a civilian so after a couple hours of sitting around in the break room waiting to find out what’s gonna happen, we got sent off as the base shut down for a few days, and I did indeed get paid to get high and play video games until they dropped Defcon…

Your whole comment is fire but “mourning theater” is the mic drop here. That’s exactly what it is, performative and shallow. It’s like a contest so see who can Never-Forget the hardest.

I agree. This country did more damage to itself seeking revenge than Osama Bin Laden could have dreamed of doing himself.

Exactly. Its telling that they don't show the same reverence for the 168 people, mostly children, murdered by white American men April 19, 1995 in Oklahoma City. 

LOL! The grays are going to be so pressed to know that they can’t deport my born in the USA ass. Fuck all y’all! And no I will not give him his day to be a dick about it on national fucking TV while endangering a Black woman in the process. Fuck you too.

This fucking bitch ass, he’d be a fucking obscure nobody that no one had reason to listen to if it weren’t for his mother and he has the fucking nerve to pull this shit?
