      Same. I was surprised that he stayed quiet when the other guy brought up ESG and DEI though. I’ve heard him rail against divisive programs like those that are intended to create tribes of poor people and divide what could be the largest group/union/class in the US.

    Killer is Mike is the definition of a Chameleon which is not entirely a bad thing however you cannot present yourself as someone authentic when your actions and your actual beliefs say otherwise. On one hand Killer Mike says send your kids to black schools then on the other hand constantly operates within the larger capitalist and white dominated economic structure and uses their resources and presents it to black people as if its black owned , funded and operated which it is not. Killer Mike is against police brutality but champions capitalism which feeds police brutality. Killer Mike is smart but he has a little more reading to do and personal reflection if he wants to reconcile the numerous amount of ideological contradictions that he has

    To those criticizing Mike go look at everything he's involved in and the fighting he does. Capitalism isn't perfect but life is playing the hand that you're dealt. Are you financially literate? Part of beating the game is knowing the rules and the players. You change what you can but those who are making sarcastic remarks what are you doing to even the playing field? What are you doing to bring change? Or are you just commenting on the net, and looking at IG all day? Foh

    I like free market capitalism. I think it can be even better without monopolies. They make it unfair and hard to compete. Get the government out of the college loan business. Let college compete with each other so tuition can be more affordable and average person. We need more private investment in trade schools in minority communities. This might sound strange but we need to figure out a way to turn street pharmacist into legitimate business owners. Can't keep poisoning our youth and expect different outcomes. We need to get back to educate our children to be able to compete for their future . What they are doing now is healthy for their future. Our grammar schools are failing and have been failing for years. Math, science in vanishing from our education system and replaced with inappropriate behavior.. Need to figure it quickly because that's where it starts.
